You know I was refering to hardware updates. I'm not an idiot Wii , 360 and PS3 all recieve software updates. But that is not what the thread is about. Its about hardware updates. Needing to buy a new graphics chip or new model every year or so. Would you be willing to buy a new console every year? or a graphics card upgrade so you could play the latest games? Or would this turn you off console gaming?

There's one flaw in your comparision - you don't need to have latest CPU/GPU to play new games on PC

Yes but you do need the latest graphics card and video card. I upgraded mine constantly. Eventually I found in some cases it was cheaper to just buy a whole new tower. This cost hundreds of dollars where as a console cost a few hundred and lasts 5-years. But what if you needed to buy the latest graphics upgrade for your X-Box 360, or a whole new model to play the latest games. Would you be fine with constantly upgrading your console?
