I agree. You can buy the cheapest computer out there, and it can do anything you could want, except play games.
And if you want to play PC games, then you need to spend hundreds, if not thousands more just for that. And then be prepared to upgrade at least yearly. It's bull$#!^.
I never used to play on consoles (except with my kids). But my $1000 laptop can't play 90% of current PC games. So what do I do? Buy old games for $1-$20 dollars that I missed and buy new games for the Wii instead. My nieghbour is the same way and so is my brother.
The PC gaming industry has put itself out of business as far as I'm concerned by being obsessed with high-end graphics. Pissing me off since I'd love to play Mass Effect and Fable too, but fat chance it'll happen. I'm not going to upgrade for probably another 3 years either. I'll have to catch them then for $10-$20 too.
