As long as you think it is that's all that matters :P. Not all PS3 games install either.

From a technical/power point of view, probably. From a gaming point of view? Not a chance IMO, not for me anyway. Consoles just offer me personally so much more than a PC does, quite comfortably.

What does a console offer that a PC doesn't, console exclusive games excepted?
A PC can run games as well or better than a console in terms of performance, and also some games, particularly FPS games are more playable on a PC due to mouse support. |

But certainly less interactive. The all in one LIVE online and how it's embedded into the dashboard on 360 destroys anything the PC has offered thus far. Jack of all trades, master of most describes the 360.

30mins to install a game? I though it was bad when I'd start loading Commando on my Amstrad CPC464, walk down the shop for some sweets and come back 10-15 minutes later just to see it finish loading

It's not exactly fair to compare each system as a gaming platform but then say that the games for each platform must be excluded from the discussion surely? ![]() Best part of consoles are the huge number of utterly fantastic games that the PC doesn't offer. Metal Gear Solid 4, The Darkness, Uncharted and (so far) little big planet are the best games i've played this year, all of which aren't available on the PC. The only PC exclusive game that i can think of that has been half decent this year is Crysis: Warhead, but even that doesn't compare to the aforementioned best games. Yeah, the PC is more powerful and produces better graphics, there's no debating that. But i'm more fussed about the actual games themselves and for that consoles win hands down. I'd rather have hundreds of hours of fun with some slight aliasing and lower res textures than dozens of hours of fun in super-slick, HDRd goodness. Luckily i get to experience the best of both worlds though ![]() Sorry, totally off topic.
