[/quote]Hmmmm.. I haven't touched a console since Playstation 1. Why buy a console when you have a computer? Just doesn't make sense to me...

X-box 2 will probably be a 64bit PC with X-box sticker biggrin:
Microsoft already has the most computer-like console out now

They are, thing i fukcing HATE is halo 2 COULD be a massive hit, just theres no friggin proper fps controls, sure the joypad controls are "ok" at best but theres zero precision in that method. Youd think the future consoles if theyre gonna have net access bla bla would at least come with keyboards and mice to make fps games more playable.

Consoles though, used to be they always had a big gfx advantage over pc's, nowadays that doesn't happen, consoles really can't touch pc's.

True but a pc can remain cutting edge through upgrading whereas a console will start to look out of date quicker.
