Ya know what I think is funny?</p>


 </p>


It is only PC gamers that feel the need to justify themselves...</p>


 </p>


Wonder why that is...</p>

what are you nuts? I have never and would never spend 1500 on a pc.</p>


 </p>


My latest pc build plays everything pretty much maxed out and it cost me just over 700 (which was about the price of a launch day ps3) </p>


 </p>


And its not a matter of justification, people always pull out ridiculous cost numbers when talking about pc gaming that may have been accurate over a decade ago but arent anymore.</p>


 </p>


another thing not being mentioned is  the countless people that had to replace, replace and replace again their xbox 360s and PS3's.. Time will tell if the same affliction applies to this generation of consoles.</p>

nope, but the minimum requirements for most games is hardware thats almost a decade old.... If I wanted to play a modern game on the box i built my mom in 2006 I can, at decent fps with ps3/360 like graphics (it actually still has a better video solution in it than the ps3 and xbox).  and guess what, it didnt break once over that time, while countless people box their xbox 7 times.</p>

With all of this said I dont give a shit what platform anyone prefers, I just have to comment when people act like you need to spend 2 grand a year to game on the PC, If someone does that, they are doing it wrong.   It is a niche market, and in my opinion if you cant build your own pcs to cut costs you probably shouldnt be gaming on the pc.</p>


 </p>

But the fact of the matter is, you can spend a little more than the cost of a console and game at the same graphics as the console on a pc, for the same life of said console without upgrading.  Most PC gamers don't do that, because PC gamers are to their computers what car enthusiasts are to their cars.</p>

off topic Which reminds me, when looking for a birthday card for my dad in the late 90's I came across a card that said the garage of the future, and it was two guys in a garage drinking beer with their pc cases open talking about the parts they are running.</p>

Why is it all PC gamers have to try and convince other people to be PC gamers?</p>


 </p>


Just stay in your little gaming world and talk about your water cooling or your graphics cards or whatever. No one else cares.</p>

Personally, when _I_ jerk off, I like a warm towel... </p>
