Not at all-- I don't care enough about the differences to keep my PC up to date. For things like TF2, Left4Dead, or any Valve game really, I want to play it on the PC but not so much other games.

I know my work PC can handle Left4Dead and I'm sure my home laptop can handle it on low settings but for the most part I don't care enough to keep a PC up to date enough that can run things like Gears, Bioshock, Mass Effect, or whatever the newest game is that will need the uber setup that I could just as easily play on the 360 or PS3.

Please, it takes very little maintenence to keep a PC playing multi-plat games. A new graphics card every couple years is more than enough to keep a PC running for an entire console generation. Multi-plats don't go up in System Reqs with time. Mass Effect has less system reqs than Bioshock.

Bingo. To get multiplatforms you need only a PC strong enough to handle console games.

Come on twesterm, you could use some of the cash you make from selling off those PS3s that seem to fall from the sky into your lap for some newer PC hardware.

I know, I know, I'm in the minority, but I actually prefer console games as opposed to PC when a game is on both platforms. And I even keep my PC up to date.

Hmm, for me, it actually depends on the game. I will generally never buy FPS games for consoles (maybe an exception for the Wii) but for a game similar to Zelda or Assasin's Creed, PCs probably wouldn't be the best way to go.
