Ive always been a PC gamer. I dont really know why except that my parents wouldnt buy me consoles because they think I would play too much :whistle: LOL the pc is worst I can play whenever I want (laptop :devil: ) :cool:

I'm a pc gamer because, even if I'd have a console, I would have a pc also...

And ya both have there pro's and cro's

The only time a console is better than A pc is for mutliplayer games for people sitting next to each other. I don't really understand why no-one has made a PC with multiple controller ports.

Thats a fair point... But if you have a sexy graphics card like a ATI 9000 series or a lovely Nvidia FX series.. then the graphics are super smooth. However saying that, you do need a hell of a lot of DDR RAM to play some games. I cranked up Doom3 to Ultra Quality and it was eating 500 Megs of RAM :D

PC.

I used to be a dedicated gamer, but to tell you the truth, I played nothing whole last year (my comp is old and I cant upgrade yet...).

Even though consoles have some flaws (like controller, if youre a FPS player, you'll hate it, that is, if you played them like they should be played, with mouse/keyboard first), the idea of upgrading every 4-5 years is much better than upgrading every three months... Then again, when consoles hit the middle-life cycle, the graphics are far behind a well optimized gaming PC.

I use PC and Console for all my gaming needs. Sometimes consoles get games first, sometimes PCs do.

OK, so PCs have much better graphics (providing you have a good graphics card [6800GT w00t!]) but consoles are fun when you just have a few mates over to watch movies and play games and hang out etc.

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.
