At last, PC gaming is looking better:

i think there are a couple of things keeping pc gaming going:

1 - it is constantly evolving. hardware upgrades mean that games look better and better and physics systems also get better...we'll see what happens with physx. yeah the xbox360 looks great now but it will look the same in 2 years whereas a pc in 2 years will have evolved and probably look better. but yeah downside is you have to keep outlaying to keep up.

2 - consoles have never been terribly good at making strategy, rpg or fps games. maybe this will change but the pc is still the main proponent for these types of games.

but i guess this is just like that mid-90s super nintendo vs megadrive (by the way the super nes sh/ts all over the megadrive. not.).
