All you PC fans keep talking about how you can play the latest and greatest titles, but you probably can't play a lot of the games you bought just a few years ago. Unless it breaks, my SNES will always be able to play all SNES games and if I want to get my Wii out in 20 years time I'll still be able to play a game I bought today. But I can no longer play most of the few PC games I own because they won't work on XP. For that simple reason PC gaming is useless to me.

 Use Dosbox or some sort of virtual machine. Sure it isn't as easy as just installing the game and going, but there is very little software out there that truly becomes unrunable on a PC.
