it`s a tough one but id go for console because they work just for games and ar echeaper if you just want to play games.
also it's not exclusive, soon it will have it's modem and i'll be able to surf the net, if I ever get bored of looking t the very pretty designed box, don't remeber the PS2 or XBox looking that stylish.
i'm much happier with the GC, proving that size doesn't matter...but! it's still a lot more powerful than the PS2! ooh almost David and Goliath, although me thinks the PS2 will/is more popular.

That's cos you are crap at them!!! If you actually TRIED to play a PC game properly (e.g. serious sam 2) you would see that they are actually decent games. You are too used to that crappy Ps2 controller of yours.
PC games are great for the genres which it is good for. Shooters, Strategy and Role-Playing are what PC is for. Because it has keyboard and mouse. Civilization could never be carried out well on a console.
PC is also great for immersive play. Hardcore gamers are unanimous in that console and PC are great for gaming, for their different reasons.
think again boblin that was a bad example to use. and yes there are several god pc games hence i said the word SOME pc games are slow.
