    Console fanboyism does scare me. If money was no object, I'd be all over the PS3. Technically it's outstanding and it's finally getting some good games. But when we got our Xbox 360, the PS3 was just an horrendously overpriced BluRay player selling on future potential. Why people need to go to (metaphorical) war in support of a games platform is beyond me. :shake:

    I agree the PC is superior.

    ---------- Added 0 hours, 2 minutes and 41 seconds later... ----------

    By the way after two firework sessions out of 4 planned today two thing happened: The side of one medium fountain came out and a single shot mortar tipped over. Its charge went of 3 cm next to my feet.

    impressive.

    On the console vs PC thing, why choose?

    Left to right on my desk is my TV, my 360, my PS3, and then my PC.

    Be jealous.

    :) Happy New Year! :)

    Considering how much I drank I am aghast over how sober I am :eek:

    Merlanni,
    the the PC is indeed superior. I just learned from a game industry executive that I am a core gamer, and a core PC gamer to boot. PC all the way!

    You said it, and all those people stating that pc gaming is dead all have a console to sell.

    Second part of the evening was bad. There was a fog, quite heavy so all those big bottle rockets are useless if you cannot see them. I tried 3 times to get someone attention for that fact and after the third time a big mouth in return.

    The next 4 hours I went trough the motions. That was the last time here, dad. My rockets will go off next year.

    My dear father treated me, my mother(his first wife) my sister and her kid like ****. The second wife is treated like a princess and her family like angels. Paid for, so to say.

    But what if the money runs out. He could sell the house that was my and my sisters pension.

    My hate is swelling.

    [​IMG] PC gaming and console gaming have always been cyclic in who was in dominance. Technology creep being in no small part which the console aspect is starting to truly twig onto and attempt to affect.

    So I'm browsing the boards on my spiffy new laptop, sitting at my bar, drinking some fine French Roast coffee, and watching the Rose Bowl.

    Life, as they say, does not suck!

    :p :D
