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from a good system are simply incredible, far cry, half life 2, doom 3, all examples of games which make consoles look out of date.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

MODs. On xbox ps2 and cube u dont get mods for game or trainers like trainer for need for speed underground 2 were u have infernet nitros instent 400 mph super brakes jump mode ect and mods like the hot coffe mod for GTA san andreas (yea i kno im sick)

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

Consoles- All other categories [Racing,(Midnight Club, Sega GT, Project Gotham, etc.) 1st person shooters, (Halo, Killzone, etc.) ] just to name a few.

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.

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.

    • Interesting. I'm not using a VPN with my phone. I tried though my home internet (Rogers) and my cellular internet (Telus) using their respective DNS servers and both trigger the dialog above.
