Price.

Super powered PC.............. £2000 (with upgrades constantly needed)

VS

Super powered 360.......... £129

If i can get almost everything i can on a PC for a fraction of the price, i'm gonna take the cheaper option...... More value for money.

Almost no one buys £2000 PCs. Nowadays a £400 can do a much better job at running games than any console. PC prices have decreased dramatically in the last few years. Hell, you can now build a PC that plays games better cheaper than a PS3.

Many people consider now that PC gaming is cheaper than Console gaming due to the cheaper prices of games, which are often $10-$20 less than the console versions. You also don't need to play $50 every year just to play online.


True, PC's can be bought cheap but ultimately cost money to maintain.

But i picked up Stranglehold for £5 and NBA 2K7 for £4 today.

Add to that the £6 i paid for crackdown and the £6 for condemned and 360 gaming really is at your disposal for a more than reasonable price.
 
Sure, XBL cost's £29.99 (shop around) but the console is £159 if you wanna go live, if i pay for XBL for the next 5 years then it still only totals £309 and i never need to worry about upgrade costs.

I apprediate PC gaming and it offers a truly unique experience, but i personally prefer just switching on my 360 and getting in to the online action in an instant.
