Gaming PC for the price of a console, that outperforms a console :)

I like a powerful computer as much as the next person but PC is not suitable for gaming, at least not as much as a console is. Yes, you have matched close to a PS3's price tag with a heft amount of good stuff for your computer. Buy can it play PS3 games? NO, it cant. Can my PS3 play computer games? Yes. Can your PC, play bluray? No. Can my PS3 play bluray,dvd,cd (actually even hddvd with small modifications)? Yes. Does your computer also come with 4 usb ports, sd card readers, ipod dock port, etc? I doubt it. Maybe the usb ports part. Not to mention there was assembly required for your PC so that brings down it's worth just a tad.

Dont get me wrong your PC sounds awsome, very efficient from the specs. It just simply does not stand up to a console. Have fun with that though :)

 

 ok if the pc is not made for gaming then explain why WOW has roughly 16 -20 million players nline everyday. not to mention another 15-20 million playing any version of counterstrike daily. pc gamers are more and more each year. i was a console gamer for the longest time till i was introduced to counterstrike. now i prefer to upgrade my pc once ever 6 years to the highest possible specs i can for the lowest price possible and then it is good for at least 6-8 years afterwards cause not till about 3-4 years into the life of that pc the gaming market reaches those specs and after a few years after that a simple upgrade will be sufficiant. this pc i a m on right now is about 6 years old and can play WOW at medium settings without any trouble but the graphics  card that i have in it is actually almost ten years old and i can almost max out the graphics on wow. but if i do max out the graphics it has a bit of a slowdown but still looks as good or better then anything on the ps3. as for counterstrike, that game owns any game on the ps3 and then sum. well same goes for WOW as well. but then again if you combine the amount of players of both games you can see that it would take  3 times the fanbase of the ps3 to even come close to those that play those games.

 

i hate fanboys that are blind to other consoles or pc's tht play games. oh and btw @ whoever said that owning a gaming pc prefers a ps3 is    completely wrong. pc gamers prefer the wii. at least 90% of pc gamers do cause it is a different experience then the others.
