Whatever you save in not paying for Xbox Live you're going to pay tenfold in parts for your custom PC. I've done the PC thing and I am not a fan. Too much tinkering with settings. Too much troubleshooting issues and optimization. Oh that awesome Rockstar game just came out? Let me wait another year for the PC version.saltydog13 said:
Good point. The controller in front of the console looks like an Elite 2 with that different D-pad though which is interesting. It looks awesome for a console, but I'd rather just move on to building a PC and have unlimited customization and not have to pay to play online like Xbox Live/PSN.
I have all the consoles, I built a modern PC, and I find myself on my Xbox 90% of the time. When I want to play a city builder or some simulator, I'll jump on my PC. But it's just not enough of a casual experience for me. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I'm a programmer and already spent 8 hours of my day typing on a keyboard and when I get home I just want to lay back on my couch.
