I just want to make sure it's understood that all of these are a sliding scale.
For example, expense. I absolutely agree that PC gaming is more expensive, despite the fact that the games are actually cheaper. However, PS3/360 aren't the cheapest either, and if those are your primary concern, you should really be playing a DS or even a PS2.
Just as on the flipside, the DS doesn't have the best graphics or the best screen. However, if those are your primary concerns, the PC offers the best possible resolution and the highest end tech. My PC has a Blu Ray burner for goodness sake, let alone a Blu Ray player!

Alright, the thing is, there is a main vein of core games that are coming out. The "cream of the crop" if you will. They are only available on the PS360/PC. Those are the games that I want, and most want to play. Those are the games that one decides between console and PC for. Those are the platforms I'm making my assumptions limited to. It's not a sliding scale, imo, it's an "either/or" comparison.
....keeping in mind I have a fantastic gaming PC, and use it often. I stand by my earlier post.

All of this is just opinion. I don't like most of those games you're likely referring to, so that immediately invalidates this entire argument. It is entirely possible, for example, for someone to greatly prefer the DS lineup this Christmas to the PS3/360 one, and based on the sales numbers, it's clear that most -- not just some, but most -- agree with that notion.
What is not opinion, however, is technical horsepower. That is materially quantifiable and unquestionable. DS is on the low end. Wii above that. 360 and PS3 above that. PC above that. Those are facts. If you want to bring opinion in to it, then the entire "PC vs. 360/PS3" argument can be summed up with "I prefer the games on the 360 to the games on PC," and you would have absolutely no need for a 12 point comparison.
