Why is it that everyone sees things in only black and white? Nothing can ever coexist if you visit a message board. And why is it always the smaller group that has to absolutely trash the majority (half the time with incorrect information and vulgar language to back up their argument) as if that will change the viewpoint of the masses?
PC's and consoles aren't even in competition with each other. If you think I am wrong, when was the last time you heard someone say, "You know, I've been debating whether to buy a PC or a console. I can only get one, which do you think?" It doesn't happen. If you can afford a fully loaded PC, you can afford a console system to go with it. If you can't afford a loaded PC, you might still be able to get the console.
Some of you people need to realize that for every computer gaming freak who can't live with anything less than Quake2 at a 150fps (and claim they can tell the difference from 100fps even though there monitor is running at 75hz, yea sure...) there are 50 who don't mind playing at 25 or 30fps. The mass majority just want to be able to sit down and play a game to relax or whatever. For that purpose, a console will do just as good as a PC if not better for a fraction of the cost and greater simplicity.
