| @Rpruett You are fighting a losing battle. Those are the "minimum requirements", which basically means you have to have those requirements to play the game on the absolute lowest resolution, with the lowest settings, and worst visuals. I already explained to you why the average PC/Laptop sold cannot game, and it is because of the reliance on integrated (onboard) graphics which even if they have large amounts of memory to use, are still not up to speed except in rare circumstances. You have a very skewed view of what the general public is and buys. The general public is the type that buys a pre-boxed system at Best Buy or Wal-Mart that comes with everything and a crappy video processor. That's how they sell them cheap and most people just want them for home usage anyway. You also seem to think that most console buyers do all this research to see which is the best, which they don't. They don't look at the future releases, they see what they can buy now, and for cheap, which in every aspect the 360 (or the Wii) wins over the PS3. Even in future releases all you have is "what if's" and speculations, which no average Joe consumer is going to give a crap about. Now quite derailing this thread, accept whatever beliefs you have as true and go hide in the corner repeating them to yourself. We know better and have no reason to listen to your desperate attempts to thwart the 360's lineup. If you really do have all the systems, why are you even so inspired to argue? It just seems like a very desperate, and possibly made up story, because if I had ALL the systems (so basically if I bought a Wii), I'd see no purpose in arguing for one over the other because I could have it all and the freedom to choose. Right now I buy most games on the 360, and only a few games like RTS games on PC. I basically only buy Blu-Ray movies on the PS3 because their software line-up just hasn't impressed me enough, and I don't have enough friends who own PS3's to justify buying any of their games (online multiplayer is a big component for me).

I'm not fighting a losing anything. Minimum Requirements allow you to play the game at a level that the manufacturer of the game deemed worthy. Anything below Minimum requirements and you might start to noticeably have performance issues that make the game less enjoyable.
I'm well aware of the PC/Laptop industry right now. As I showed, it took me about 10 seconds to drop a link to a 500 dollar PC that Users preferred from BestBuy.com. That was more than capable of handling Mass Effect.
Again, like I said I could careless about the PS3/360 war that you wish to wage. I'm purely discussing the framework as it pertains to this thread and that people still touting the 360 lineup as something of greatness, (Without PC/360 games) is quite delusional. I don't care about what system sells more in 08', 09', etc. I don't care about what system you like or what system you believe I like.
The 360's lineup minus the PC/360 games is meh. Period. You don't have to be a fanboy to come to that conclusion.
And who cares what my reasoning is for arguing? If you own all three systems, what point do you have arguing with me? You're just so happy right? You argue with me because you disagree with my opinion (Which is generally the purpose of a message board). I argue because I disagree with some of the opinions laced in this topic. Easy enough for you?
That's wonderful for you. I enjoy all four platforms in their own ways.
I just believe you are quite delusional if you really believe that the 360 still has "The best" or "A great" lineup without the PC/360 exclusives. If you go along with that train of thought, why if you had a modest PC, would you even bother with a 360? You would be better off going for PS3/Wii.
