If talk generally about the RPG genre, then PC easily wins since it has MMORPGs and WRPGs in the back pocket. Oh, and you don't have a PC on your TV? Because I do, and somehow I can lie down in the sofa... strange, isn't it?
PC still doesn't have JRPGs, and the X360 actually offers MMOs (Conan is coming as well as Champions Online).
Steam is better, and free.
Still have to pay for the games on Steam, no?
And it's also nice that PC games don't even need a disc to play the games. Steam + Cracks = Awesome.
Are you referring to illegal cracks? At any rate, you have XBLA and XBO games that don't require disks either.
Does your 5yo Xbox play 360 games? Because my 5yo PC can play today's games. Heck, even some 8 year old PCs can play recent and awesome games like Audiosurf.
LOL! Mind listing me a few computers under $1,000 5 years ago that can play ANY recent game? My 2001 computer (which was pretty decent, spec wise for 2001) can't play ANYTHING made within the past few years.
With Digital Distribution, PC gamers don't even need to worry about losing discs of their games
Except when draconian DRM comes into play for your favorite digitally downloaded games
And Lucas Arts is going to the shitter... I wonder why? And I also wonder why Capcom (a console company) and EA (biggest money grubber) are more and more keen in supporting PC gaming... maybe they see something most people don't.
Maybe they're inclined to cater to everyone - even PC owners?
PC gaming is cheaper, and you're ignorant to think $1700 is the PC equivalent of a Xbox 360.... try a $400 PC.
PC gaming is NOT cheaper. You buy 1 Xbox 360 for $349, and your set until 2012. You buy 1 PC for $1,000 and your set till 2012 if your lucky. Unless you buy a system for >$2,000 your computer is not going to last very long. I've been a PC gamer since 1995, and know this for a fact. Every PC system I've ever owned (after all, every single person on this forum is a PC gamer in some form or fasion) has been outdated for games within ~3 years. My Xbox 360 that I paid $400 for in 2005 hasn't been out dated, and will last for another 3-4 years. I can't say that about the laptop I bought last year - I can't even play anything on it.
