I would just like to point out a few things with the list in the last post 1) for me...I can lie down or sit on my bed when playing PC, so I have best of both 2) PCs can be hooked up to 62" plasma screens, HD Tv's or even projectors as big as 300" 3) it is all down to personal preference for controls...do you prefer Keyboard & Mouse or controller? and if you prefer PC gaming but like using a controller you can buy a compatible controller to sue for the PC if needed 4) depends on where you go for your PC...somewhere like Dell.com...they will charge you too much for something that was top range 5 years ago if I really wanted I could grab a ready made PC with mid-range to top of the range components for £650 ($1300) compare that to your Xbox 360 and other consoles alone...yes the console is cheaper but what if you want the full entertainment package and grab a 50" HD Tv while you are there that's worth alot personally I prefer the PC and to upgrade the PC since I use it for more than just gaming but I do also like to play consoles every now and then...I still play pro evo 5 and ghost recon 1 on the xbox when bored of playing Morrowind on the PC
