What games on the PC are years ahead?Give me a list

Pretty well anything, the tech used in the SD twins is horribly outdated.

When I game on my PC, the games have more AA, better textures, better effects, and ~8 times the resolution of their console counterparts, all at ~double the framerates as well.

Eyefinity?

Hows that working out for you? My 5870 is tempting me to get into a 3some but im not sure as I've never done a 3some before...

It's great, and for a lot of games, just the one 5870 has enough power to drive all three 1920x1200 monitors completely flawlessly - from what I've tried, Supreme Commander 2, L4D1/2, Dead Space were all constant 60 fps fully maxed out, and Dragon Age and Batman were constantly over 50.

Crysis, not so much, however. :D  But you'd probably need, like, Crossfired 5970s to make that work in Eyefinity...
