A used PS3 is like 150 bucks. You will be hard pressed to even build a whole PC from that, let alone one that can run PS3 games. Even if you could by buying used and old PC parts it's never wise to invest in old technology.

I never said you could get one for 150. But I'm more supporting the fact that you can get a computer that plays PS3 level graphics for a decent price. You don't need to spend thousands like everyone around here seems to think.

That is true but that wasn't the hyperbole OP used. Consoles will always be superior in the performance/price department which is good, because it gives people with less money and less technical knowledge the means to properly play games.

It seems some PC fans aren't content with the fact that they already own the preformance crown forever and just want it all.

Perhaps. I'm not delusional. I know how expensive PC gaming can be, at least in terms of up front cost. I'll admit to spending 1200 bucks on PC upgrades every 3-4 years.

Anyways, my wording was that it wasn't TOO far from the truth. No, you can't get a decent system for 150 bucks. But 300-400? Absolutely. On board video has come a long way in the last decade.
