"quantity=/=quality"
But a wider selection of games isn't good?
"upgrades have to be done often"
Not that often, and it's cheaper than a new console every 7 years or so.
"emulation isn't always perfect and only available for few consoles"
There is an emulator for almost every console out there, and a lot of them are stable.
"sometimes it's actually too much"
Because you can have too many players, especially in large-scale battle FPS games like Battlefield and Planetside.
"depends on your pc"
If you have an old, non-gaming PC, then sure. But of course, we are talking about PCs meant for gaming. |

Because the new bags idiots and trolls get what they deserve from the "real" oters and aren't embraced |

Emulation Modding Exclusives Controls Higher MP player count Not paying extra for most MP games Self-serviceable if something breaks Longer warranty period (most components have 2-3 years, PS3 has 1 year) More variation in games Easy VOIP Games are cheaper Can be used for things other than gaming DRM can be circumvented Upgradeable |

| Modding is the only argument PC gamers need, but there are many more besides that. |

errr no PCs need upgrading just as often as consoles
"depends on your pc"

"what the hell is an emulator anyways"
also going by face value, halo was originally a PC only game

Oh yeah, also larger MP servers and "true" HD. AKA 1080p is possible on a PC, consoles only go up to 720(?)p currently, IIRC.

@mikey
well
iirc it's some odd distortion of 720p (like 1024x720 or something like that iirc) and it gets upscaled to 1080p

Meldo has built multiple PC's on a 300-400 dollar budget and they ran better than a PS3.

yea
a $400-$500 pc if you get a pentium and a GPU
if you get an APU like a smart person it will only play as well as a $350 or so PC
and the PC is much more worth it considering you can use it for many more things than gaming

true
but the ps3 was made in 2005 so its pretty obvious why its lacking the latest hardware

Actually, you can get a Phenom II 955 BE + a 7750 for $500, which will blow away modern consoles.
Also you can upgrade most current desktops for less than $200 to perform better than modern consoles.
