    I'll remember that next time I'm playing Ocarina of Time, Metal Gear Solid, Metroid Prime, or any other high-quality console game that wasn't cobbled together by a kid in his parents' basement.

    Seriously, mods might be a fun diversion, but there are so few that are actually well-designed that it's hardly a significant advantage of PCs. If mods are the biggest advantage to PCs, it's no wonder PC gaming is dying. Counter-Strike is a joke compared to just about every commercial FPS.
