[citation][nom]shadowfamicom[/nom]Before all the people get into the comments section, and go "I am gonna stick with my 680gtx and i7!!" or the general anti-console talk... Look people I have a gaming PC too... and PC games are great. But how am I going to get the new Okami, Catherine, Monster Hunter, Rez, Siren, Virtua Fighter, Lumines, Tekken, Silent Hill, Katamari, Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, The Last Guardian and the like on PC? The fact is a lot of my favorite genres happen to be developed mostly in Japan. These games do not generally come out for PC. So yes, it IS stupid to buy the new FPS on a console for $10 more and with crappy controls and no real modding scene to speak of... and when I am buying an FPS it is on PC. But a large amount of games I enjoy are console only. So anyone saying... "CONSOLE is BaLLs, PC IS THE OWNZ!!!1111", consider that not everyone is always after the next FPS, RTS, Simulator or MMO.[/citation]
It's a bit arrogant in it's self to think that people on this site will jump to elitism, isn't it? That aside, I play all categories of games on my PC, not just the genres you listed above. It's a matter of plugging in a controller for certain games and if a company can't spend the time to port a game over then they are losing sales. Buying a console means their marketing is working and that you support a system that tells you how to do things. Well let me tell ya something: I'm not going to buy a console to be told what my system is made of, what games I can and cannot play, to be charged extra for playing my games online, or any of the other "fun" things that a console represents.
