@OP
Can I sit down on my couch to watch my movies? Can I sit down on my couch and play my games? Can I play Halo 3 without a 360? Can I play Forza 3 without my 360? Or even Crackdown 2 or ODST? Halo Reach? Ninja Gaiden 2? Ninja Blade? Soul Calibur 4? Lost Odyssey?
Etc etc. I choose all of the above over £50 PC gaming. |
Well, you certainly can hook up a computer to a TV. Even play with a controller, too.
And can you play Portal Prelude? Crysis? Starcraft 2? Every platform has its exclusives. And frankly, most PC gamers are less than impressed by the 3 Halo's you mentioned, because we've played, you know, GOOD first person shooters. :-o
PC > Console for FPS and RTS, mostly due to the control scheme (and history). I prefer console for most everything else, though.

Don't you think it looks wierd for a PC to be in your living room? i think it's too big,troublesome & wierd to be placed in a living room.

No. It's a box. You're just used to one box and not another. If you had a PC sitting next to your TV for 20 years and a console sitting at your desk, you'd probably be saying the opposite. And you can even buy smaller cases that might fit better into a home entertainment unit.
Maximum PC even recently had a feature on building a living room PC
