I haven't had a chance to read the replies but my vote goes to PC, compare a high spec pc to a console, there is no competition and the games are miles ahead.

When consoles got multiplayer everyone was like "ooh look it's so new", seriously, it's been happening on PC games since way back, why all the fuss because FINALLY a console can do it.

The graphics a pc game can produce from a good system are simply incredible, far cry, half life 2, doom 3, all examples of games which make consoles look out of date.

I think I've made my point :).

PC is best for games unless u have crap one xbox is the bes console cos it the fastes and has beeta gfx then ps2 or cube and is betta and easyer to play online haveing said thth i dont have xbox live cos i play mi games online on PC. if consoles had a mouse and keybored for fps games and no loading/saving wait no crap graphics then i would happaly play one i have an xbox and have played the ps2 and cube i find the ps2 and cube lack in loads of things and so dus the xbox but not as much

xbox :best console fast clearish gfx controllers are a bit of a strech expecily the trigers. but are betta then ps2

ps2: i could make a cup of tea b4 it loads but had some betta games then xbox and cube and controlers are too small and buttons bunched up

game cube: seems chidish but has some hardcore games but lacks severly cos no internet play and cant play dvds. and small controllers

PC: best for games playing on net free inless u have dile up plus thts slower then broband of corse. loading speed and saving speed is seconds (well my PC is) u play games with mouse and keybord wich is easyer for aiming in fps but i use mi controller for non fps games like GTA Sand Andreas on PC

I think pc's are really good gaming machines but windows only....mac and linux aren't exactly optimized for gaming, few exceptions as one of my freinds who has a dual g5 and can play games flawlessly.

but computers gpu gets obsolete sooner to consoles as they have more games available but you can always upgrade the gpu........so its both

pc.- strategy games

consoles almost any other games

1) Why do we have to have this discussion every other day? It's lame, and only gets the fanboys worked up.

2) Are we trying to prove that gamers have no concept of spelling or grammar? The whole 1337sp33k thing died out in the mid to late 80s, now you just look like a bunch of posers.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
    • you can also do this with this tool: PowerSettingsExplorer made by mbk1969 at 3dguru forum.. I found it by accident researching on modern standby and annoying quirks of it in 2022
