A PC is NOT a Console!!!!

Seriously people it is Ironman, if you can't tell where this is coming from and going to then grab a road map in the lobby.

Despite what Ironman of the "unique" spelling prowess claims I don't think this is a black and white issue just because he/she wants it to be. You are asking people their opinion, which by default allows for personal interpretation, which leads us down the clever logic path that strays from a black and white end result.

Oh and at some point it was stated or stressed that a console only plays games yet mine plays DVDs, Blu rays, allows me to connect to the internet, lets me communicate with my friends, with the folding@home function my "console" adds to a greater processing collective, and on and on.

A pc is a machine that is capable of serving the functions of a console but is more. PS3/X360 are consoles that are capable of serving some functions of a pc.

IMO the only reason you are drumming this thread up is so that in the future when you say "it is an X360 console exclusive" yet I can never own an X360 and still play the game makes it a bit of a misnomer in that it between the X360 and PS3 it is exclusive but I can turn around and still play it on my PC. Some PS3 exclusive games are not exclusive either as they can be played on a PC.

The sad thing is I took the time to respond lol darn I fell into the trap yet again. When winter hits we can always look to Ironman to heat things up in here at least.
