Which system is best for games ?

uh...SFR...no offense but what the hell was that?

Yes PCs will probably always have an edge, at least until consoles become upgradable (without buying a whole new unit). I still think the PS3 is superior to the Xbox, mainly because I don't have to keep a PSX or PS2 to play all the older games I like, plus that bluetooth wireless controller idea is good

My stupid politics

If you havent noticed.. I think Gaming machines in general get way to much hype... never found them enjoyable... I would rather go outside and play basketball or football with friends then sit at home and play games... Do you think the new XBOX will trump the new Playstation?

I think the PS3 will be more popular than the xbox, just because the only game xbox seems to have is halo and it's terrible.

Dell, Compaq, Saturn...all huge and terrible (my opinion), but all very successful (fact).

Things don't have to be good to sell well. Look at Star Wars Ep. 1, 2 and Titanic, the largest grossing movie, they did well and they sucked. There's also 4W4K3's examples. It's all relative, when you compare Halo to the other garbage on the xbox it looks decent.

if i can steal what someone else said a minute ago, "opinion" lol. there are games that attract certain people, and games designed for other people.

You also cant do wut u can on a PC on a gaming console. U can change game settings ect. and even tho a PC mite have to be upgraded in a few years a new console will be released in 3 possibaly 4. Also upgrading is supposed to be a good thing, keeping up with technology and all for the latest and greatest in graphics and preformance. Thats how I think of it as
