Mass Effect GOTY 2010 easily...

And PC gaming doesn't hold a candle to console gaming imo.  Its like comparing a moped (pc) to a Ferrari (console game) they both get the job done, but one is way way better than the other.

Let me see, you are calling a platform - that can use the same controllers than a console (with even the same layouts), that gets hooked up to a HDTV (like a console), that gets the game with the same or better graphics than a console, with the same or way better FPS rate than a console, and has online service waaaayyy before consoles had it - a moped???

I'm not favoring one or another, i enjoy gaming and i hooked up all my systems to the way it's the most confortable to me, and it's really great... PC/PS3/Wii, one on DVI, one on HDMI, one on Component...

One requires so much uneeded effort and the other requires virtually none.  And gaming with friends is > then all.  In that regaurds i was right with my Moped vs Ferrari.  You can fit a couple people in a ferarri but can only go solo with a moped, but if our into being the lone ranger than thats your choice.

If you find enjoyment out of that then kudos to you, this is just my opinion of the matter...

 

Let me see, do you think i cannot play with friends in my PC??? just 2 days ago we played a Pro-Evo 2009 tournament, and a Left4Dead session (both on PC) right here in my house, (along with some Wii Sports and Call of Duty 4 on my PS3). I guess you assumed that i can't be done because of the mouse, keyboard and monitor, but i've said it before, i have wireless controllers and my gaming PC is hooked up to my HDTV... So where is your moped now??

The effort part is different, obviously this part really comes to taste and i can understand why people don't want to do that, while others like me get excited building a rig...

But i thought PC games don't have split screen...

Depends on the game and the dev, sometimes it's out of the box, sometimes you have to add it, sometimes the dev does a patch, in Left4Dead case is this:

hmm intersting... i really did not know that.  I guess that shoots out my moped arguement lol.  its more like one of those motorbikes that you can add a extra seat on one side of it if you want.

It can be a customized motorcycle or a customized car, obviously it's not gonna be a car one just got on an agency, because the whole point of gaming rigs is the customization... That's why i can see so many people turned down by PC gaming, and because of that it's great that now with the Xbox360 and the PS3 the same games that were PC-only (like FPSs from Valve or WRPGs from Bethesda) can be played now in consoles.

BTW S.T.A.G.E. yeah, he used the 360 controller (that is totally compatible with PCs jejeje), other guys used a different way:
