Left 4 Dead sound like it might be pretty cool, might have to read up on it. Valve makes pretty good stuff. I like Steam as well. Think that is where the industry is headed. Best for all of us(Except Gamestop). You could run the games on a $1000 system, not very well, and it would not produce particularly pretty pictures. And it is also $1000, over twice as much as a 360. But you could make the argument that you could use the PC for more than gaming. You obviously can already do all those things. All additional purchases would be for the sake of gaming. Unless your profession demands it.
And it just occurred to me that 360/pc games could pretty much be called Microsoft exclusives. Windows is the predominant gaming platform for PCs(DirectX and such). So in some form or other, when you are playing these games you have given Microsoft money.
