Let the crying and excuses from hermits begin...
This should stop all the hermit screaming about having the best games but I probably wont but at least we know the score and can el oh el at herms when screaming they have the best games. Basically if RTS/MMO are your favorite genres then PC is the best for you other wise consoles offer the most diverse high quality (AAA level) game experiences in a generation.
