JJ stick to posting about things you know something about..

Nevermind then i would have to start reading the home and garden forums.

If you think lets say Tiger Woods Golf is better on a PC vs A TV your a flat out idiot.

I have no experience with that game.. but i find assuming that you are right (which i dont concede) it still doesnt come close to proving your assumption.

PC's are far more powerful than any console..

No sir, consoles are stripped down to real poweful video cards and hard drive so PC's can compete.

ps3 and xbox 360 were a bit better than a PC for a small time frame but it was before they were even released (PS3 just recently released)

the PC is more powerful again as it almost always is

course they are way more expensive to

you can dump like 4 g in a PC that will handle a PS3 with room to spare especially with the new intel CPUs

even a PC of $1,800 or so is more powerful

The best games are still on the PC for me, just check out Vanguard as soon as it comes out.
Consoles are great for sports or action games, they can shine there and i always loved Jump´n Runs like Donkey Kong, Sonic or Super Mario World, but if you play RPGs or Strategy PC is a must.

I will say Tiger Woods Golf plays too slow on a top level pc vs a TV

I think you need a high end video card for a pc to work well with games.

**goldengoat** · 11-18-06, 07:42 PM

yes the video card is extremely important for pc games

expect to pay at least $200 or greater for a "good" video card or $300-$500 for a high end card

PC, no contest.

Remember, you can upgrade as the new tech. comes out, with a PC. Your stuck on old tech. with a console for about 3 to 5 years.

With that being said, I will still be buying a PS3. I have use for the Blu-Ray player and having it able to play video games is a plus.

Yo, PC games are much much better. Some truly amazing games are only available on PC such as any real time strategy games and so on...

It really depends on what kind of PC you have for the graphic debate.

Get yourself the top of the line PC, you'll know why, and stop using your old azz system that you have now.

**707782** · 11-19-06, 08:26 PM

High end video card=300-400
CPU=200-400
RAM=200=300

Add some extra, you got yourself one hell of a system that nothing can't beat yet.

even a nvidia 7900gt video card $200 will beat the hell out of any console games out there. I know I h ave both a 7900gt and xbox360 PC games blow it away hands down.

I have a 6800 Ultra in my laptop. Pretty good mobile gaming.

This thread confirms that playing video games causes brain damage.

**pags11** · 11-20-06, 05:10 AM

I don't even know anyone that still plays games on their CPU's...

I think the top 3 played games are on PC.. #1. World of Warcraft over 7 million subscribers (USA alone). Personally fantasy games are pretty weird..
