If you want to compare graphics of platform's you cant do it with multi plat games due to them all being shader 3.0, meaning they all look the same for the most part. The PC looks the best, the PS3 isn't far behind and the 360 is getting old, thats all there is to it. Its not a BAD thing that the 360 is getting old, it still can run games and have the games looking good, but its just not going to be able to run something a PS3 or PC could if the games were made to take advantage of what the have platforms offer.
Why are people complaining about W7 reqs? Every new OS will need better system specs every time it upgrades. XP reqs more them than 2000. Does that mean XP sucks?
Jrugh, Boot camp does not matter. You'll still be using a ATI HD 2600 or 8800GS. How can you even compare that to todays average PC's 4850/9800GTX? Or even the cheaper 4670/9600GT. Macs are good for youtubers and editors, but when it comes to games they suck. Why? Because you cant upgrade anything but the RAM and they don't use gaming grade parts. MacPro you can upgrade the GPU but it uses a servers CPU aka not good for gaming. It would be like gaming with a workstation video card. PCs are just way ahead of Macs when it comes to hardware. OSX is nice but yet again. Your talking about boot camp, so it does not matter. Its all about the hardware at that point.
"I'm not seeing a big enough jump between the 8800 series and the latest Nvid cards to upgrade other than another 8800 for sli maybe." Agreed, I've thought about upgrading but it dosnt seem worth it with the performance my 8800gts still gives. Just shows how great the 8800 cards are really " Same I have a 8800GTS 320mb and got a GTX260, was not really happy with the upgrade so I send it back.
I'm using a old 8800GTS 320mb, and don't see reason to upgrade right now. I can run any game I want to at 30+ FPS so until its needed ill stay with my 8800gts
Not true Colsworl, Many gamers can run games on high. You don't need a monster to run most PC games on high. Anyway I like the PC comparison. I'm really sure why you would buy a console. There are few games that are good that come out on console only. PC games are $10 cheaper, and by the time you add in the cost for the Console plus the PC your looking at this on now, you could have just got a gaming rig. You can build a very good gaming PC for under $600
i agree with red-orc, I started back playing Wow a few months ago after a friend told my about this but after i started playing it hit me "wait if i didnt like it then im not going to like it later" so i stopped playing again :P But if people like it good for them, I didnt like Wow as much as some other MMOs. Not saying WoW is bad, I just dont like it any more cause it just got old to me. Some other MMOs I've played for years but WoW I can only stand for a month or 2 at a time.
