The $500 Gaming PC Upgrade
sand writes "Building a powerful PC for gaming doesn't have to be expensive. In this article, FiringSquad spends $500 on a gaming upgrade, and compares its performance to that of a high-end Core 2 Extreme PC. The Core 2 Extreme rig is faster, but you may be surprised by how well the $500 PC is able to hang with it in Crysis, Call of Duty 4, and Unreal Tournament 3."
PS3 lacks good games, PC doesn't. It's definitely a downgrade.
Stupidity is the root of all evil.

See, that's where they're making their mistake. Not gamers, but developers. The developers are only selling to hobbyists, when they could be selling to people just looking for a little recreation.
I never got into the MMOLPs because I was afreaid of being sucked into the addiction. Instead of selling crack, game developers should be selling twinkies.
With crack in them. They're shooing away many people they could get hooked.
