WOW...that's some question, be prepared for 360 vs PC WAR here Razz
My bet is WHAIT for Xmas or early next year...why? Well, Vista and a lot of Hardware goodies will come out for the good ol PC. 360 will get as good as it is NOW! While the PC platform will keep evolving. OOOOPS! i guess I started the war already Razz

As for displays...well I am running a 2ms Samsung, no HDTV but it still rocks my little world Wink
I guess one could have both, 360 and a high end PC, actually I have, well the 360 is my son's but never the less Razz

A high end PC has the cutting edge in graphics over the 360, and it is going to get an even higher edge with DX10 on the horizon.

Obviously if you don't have a high end PC or can't afford one, you should go with the Xbox360.


Upcoming PC games 2009 and onwards

Got to say, I dissagree. XBOX360 wins for now (when used on a HD enabled screen..), I havent seen a game released for the PC that beats the 360 graphics.. since playing the 360 I cant belive how amazing the draw distances are on the 360 when compaired to other consoles/the pc..

However, soon enough im sure PC's will catch up.. thats just the way it goes.

You obviously haven't tried playing a PC game on a huge monitor then. Compare Oblivion or GRAW for instance.

for example

nba live 07 (EA sports) xbox360 = 67x100
nba live 07 (EA sports) PC = 71x50

for PC thats almost the half smaller, whats the main reason ? texturing ?


consoles have been invented for emptyheads

GRAW sucks for the pc becoz they made a lame shooter out of it , but the 360 version now this what i call gameplay fun ....
anyway this fights 360 vs pc is crap , becoz first we must talk to the devs or those that make those games to make equal gfx wise versions , they can make it but the BIg $$$ are in consoles now and not in a not stabile Vista with a dx10 that hasn`t any hardware for it ... its like tthe first decade of PSX one , later the PC owned the PSX

so people wait a year or two and then start talking when we will have new dx10 gfx about xbox360 vs PC
