I hereby grant permission to any who enter this thread to flame at will. State your position on PC vs. console gaming and try to reason why with the most violence towards the opposing party as possible. *MapleStory does not count as a reason for choosing PC gaming as most of the people on BasilMarket play it* EDIT: It seems I've pressed the enter button on accident while making this thread and I can not edit the poll. Ignore it and simply post your answer, unless you want to vote for PC.

PC Gaming will always be better then Consoles. The graphics will be better on a PC. Only problem with PC is compatibility issues and online cheaters by the masses.

well.... i think there's more variety in PC games because it has games from a lot of different consoles

I seriously did not intend those poll choices xD Although I am on the side of PC, I prematurely pressed the enter button and now all you can choose is PC gaming wins.

Lol. I would go for consoles for gaming, unless you have very good quality specs. But then again... P.S. Is there like a choice in the middle lol? I can't build one but I can do other things. Ex. put in my GFX card and internet antenna :/. I know that's lame, but I'm just too impatient to wait for someone else to do it so I just taught myself.

I like console more. Most PC games are either MMOs or Shooters. Not really fun. Console gaming has more crap. Plus, PS3 has a browser and can watch things like youtube.

IE Grand theft Auto. That game wasn't configured to be used on a pc properly. So many glitches and performance issues.

A good graphics card is about the amount of a game system so no. It's alot cheaper getting the console system and there are more variety of games.

For instance, I just got MOH: Airborne for my b-day(April 18th, almost a month ago :P) and I noticed a little glitch(this is for people that have played this before/heard about it) where during training, when the light turns green, you have to jump off the plane, but sometimes it turns red, and you're still told to jump off. I haven't seen this on a console yet(or ever) so I'm thinking it's a tiny issue, but small things can make a difference.
