Yeah thats my current state of mind, what the 360 can do current gen PC's can do it better. Though saying that my current PC is a heap of shite. (PCI slots only, so I have to make do with an FX5200!!!)

Well Microsoft say they'll stock shops every week, but you know not to believe that! I'll eventually get one that's for certain but I might pick one up for Christmas.

i dunno i have never really been a fan of the xbox games they tend to be similar to pc games, so why not use a pc instead. Plus with microsofts connections most of the games come out on pc anyway.
Look at there launch selection most of them i would prefer on pc
Quake 4 - Pc
Call of Duty 2 - Pc
Need for speed most wanted - Pc
Stubs the zombie - Pc
Etc
I exspect i will get a ps3 or the revolution but i doubt a xbox360.

Most games are better on PC, and its more versatile. The only time u want a console is when you have the lads over with some bevvies to play some footy

im undecided maybe in a moment of madness i will in the new year but like my psp it will just be a toy to show off and i will always use my PC for most things ...

no doubt there will be some 360 only massive titles to temp us away but nothing can replace my pc

tho i certainly think that the 360 is aimed at luring pc users away as well as other console owners

I want one but I'm pretty screwed for cash at the moment. The release titles are pretty sweet for me as I loved PD and PGR2. I doubt I'll be able to get one with more then one game though... so I dunno if I should get PDZ or PGR3

This will probably be the final nudge into me getting a nice HDTV for my room too... will have to give the place a clean out, it's a friggin mess!

All accounts are that PDZ is average and PGR3 is good but not great.

The original PD was distinctly average aswell. Multiplayer was its saving grace.

Not all accounts at all. I've read a lot of reviews that say PDZ is an awesome game. But better still, I know alot of people that say it's awesome so I'll go with them.

The only down point I see to PGR3 is that without a HDTV it looks like PGR2
