Why do you keep bringing this up in here? Its been proven time and time again, the consoles have a slight advantage when they launch and then it significantly sways towards the PC side after 6 months or so if you are talking for price on hardware. Plus you also have to consider how cheap you can get games on the PC AND the fact that you now have to pay on the PlayStation AND XBOX to play multiplayer every year.

As far as the bolded...No, but a $300 PC these days would absolutely obliterate the specs inside a PS3 or XBOX 360. You are getting great value with the PS4 at launch for the $400 price tag, but @ $500 the debate is there to be had again. You can build an AMD based $500-$600 PC that would play games @ about the same as you would with an XBOX one. Once the generation continues to go on then there is no contest. By year 2 and both consoles are at about $350-$400, then the PC is the clear leader again per price point.

I have done the math on this for 10+ years already. If you are the madden and cod type player that just buys those 2 games every year then a console is probably your best bet. If you are a gamer that buys anywhere from 8-15 games per year then your best bet is the PC. You save thousands over a console generation with how fast prices drop on the PC.
Lol what do you mean why I keep saying this...that's the first time I've said that in here.

Read my post again...I asked a question and you went all out breh...I was just in here asking about a new PC....just a honest question. I look at the specs on paper of a Xbox 360 and even I k ow those same innards would run TERRIBLE on a PC. I know...the innards of my PC that just died couldn't produce Xbox 360 quality and it was better on paper. Thats why I asked because it seems like everybody is directly comparing innards as if they are on the same scale

Yea just copped it last night. Incredible deal, even though I hate shooters for the most part.
one problem is I wanted to play the og dead space cuz I never finished it, played mostly on consoles at friends place back in the day

so I start it and my god its like the worst console port ever in terms of controls. the mouse is retarded even with vsync off.
Im actually contemplating buying a controller now, something Ive never thought Id do even having played fighting, driving and sports games on pc with kb&m

Yeah, Dead Space 1's vsync option is broken. Have to turn it off within the game and use D3DOverrider to turn vsync on with triple buffering. Still though it must be ass with keyboard and mouse, :scusthov:
