Every time a new generation of gaming consoles is coming out, these same articles surface – and they have never been right. Nor will this be right this time. The fact is that consoles simply cannot keep up with PCs – by the time they come out, they are out of date! You will always have hard core gamers like me that by a PC every 1.5 years cause the latest and greatest requires it. Case and point: UT games. Awesome looking on my dream machine. On Xbox – total crap. Doom III on my PC – awesome. On Xbox, compared to my PC… crap.

In my opinion, the only reason to have a console is fighting games and sports games. They can’t compete against PC games on any other platforms.
