Yeah I know it's not going to cost a grand idiot, and no I'm not going to get mediorce stuff to put in it either.

of course its not going to cosy you a grand you idiot
number1/ your making your own so you dont have to pay the likes of dell to make it for you
and two you will probably get mediocre stuff ( £10 graphics card from the local carboot sale.)
i'll leave it at that
My brother has a laptop; it betters my computer in every way except the graphics card, which is crap. Why is this? Well because laptops are basically portable word processors, they're designs for people who can't access PC's while on the move which is why you friend can't play games on them.
I understand why people like you wouldn't fork our money on PC gaming, after all with a paper round you won't be bringing in much capital, but there is one reason I will always put PC gaming ahead of consoles. It's better, for me at least, so I don't feel I'm wasting time or money by investing in it.
Continue arguing all you want, but my mind will never change on this subject.
well thats also strange becasue my mate has just got a new sony laptop which costs over a grand like £1400 and is very powerful still battlefield 1942 is not playable on it
i would much rather play these quality games on a system that can handle them and knowing that when i buy game its going to play ok without having to worry about system requirements
and after all you buy a console for the games like you just said and since i wanna play these good pc/xbox games then i got a xbox instead of a new pc because of its cheaper and the reasons above and becasue i already own a ps2 and have no interest in the games on the cube with pherhaps the exception of mario kart whenever it comes out
> power:xbox
If anyone buys a console solely because it's 'powerful' then they're a cretin. Unless a games console has a good selection of games I won't buy it, hence why I don't bother going out to buy an x-box.
Well that the fact that more than half the games you mentioned moh_fan I can already get on my PC cheaper, or on another console. That's the only problem I have with the X-Box, it's lack of variaty.
these game out now or coming out
starwars knights of the old republic
B.C
Tork
halo
halo 2
perfect dark zero
mechassault
morrowind
battlefield 1942
medal of honour allied assault
unreal championship
etc etc
Anyway this is bloody annoying now all people do is post pointless posts like this all the time what is the best console the fact is there is no overall best console
if you was to do it in catergories like:
power:xbox
biggest choice of games:ps2
value for money: gamecube (although could be xbox as well)
etc etc
but at the end of the day everone should follow this advice
forget what your friends have got and what other people say and buy the console that YOU want which has the most games YOU want
after all why do people argue over consoles i know it will never stop but this what the companys want you to do.
