We were saying the same thing. Playing F1 or RR7 I just thought there's no way a PC would do this, unless I spent ££££...

laughing my fucking ass off  a QX6700 processor with a nice dose of 1066RAM and a pair of 8800GTX's in SLi will make the PS3 and 360 look like Master Systems (as soon as DX10 is released  )

yes obviously but thats a setup with £k;ss spent, compare it to the average home pc of even the average fast home pc and it looks better.
Its not because the hardware itself is better, its because the games have been written especially for the hardware, can improve them a lot

Its also to do with the fact that the PC will have a lot of background shite running, like the OS and whatnot. On the games console, the things running in the background is minimal, so it can make the most of it.

i dont think il be getting a ps3 for a while not till the price drops which will be years, i just cant justify the expense at the moment im not intrested in blu-ray and not really that into graphics especially when there is so little difference between the 360 i already own and the ps3.
more to the point however, i really dont see the point in owning both, most games that are coming out are multi-platform its not like each system is getting its own killer game that will sell a system, the ones the ps3 did have are getting released on the ps3 aswell ie devil may cry 4.
i really do believe microsoft made the right move releasing the 360 so far ahead of the ps3 because its pretty much a case of if you have one why get the other?

ok, build a pc for £280 that can output better GFX than a 360, good luck
