I am a gameplayer, and always will be. But i decided long ago to stop buying pc games. I mean each time a new one comes out, you have to buy something for your computer as well, thats why i turned to ps. Whats your point of view in this situation
Are you willing to pay alot of money to build up your computer for one game?

I am not much of a PC gamer at all. All I play for the PC are roms and Roller Coaster Tycoon.

PC Gaming is just stupid. RARELY a PC game is able to play w/o abnormalities. I just stick with my roms and my Gcube.

Not now, probably never. At this point I'm on my fourth computer, none of which I have paid for. I get my computers when a relative upgrades, and if it doesn't happen for five or ten years, well, I don't get a new computer for five or ten years. At this point I'm pretty happy with the gaming capabilities of my laptop, and while I doubt I could play something like Bioshock without a lot of lag, I'm not going to put all of my money into the computer. The only things I'd want for it at this point are an external hard drive and maybe a video capture card.

I find that very hard to believe. I very rarely have any problems with gaming on my PC. Probably have had more troubles with consoles.Anyways, no it's not worth upgrading your PC for one game. But there's usually one game worth upgrading your PC for other games.PC Gaming is just stupid. RARELY a PC game is able to play w/o abnormalities. I just stick with my roms and my Gcube.

Yeah, I don't really play PC games due to the fact that you have to upgrade everything of your PC to play one game and do it all over again for the next big game. The only things I play on my PC are ROM's and some MMO's that aren't too hard on my PC. I mostly prefer playing on my PS2 (well, until I get my PS3).

i dont think its worth upgrading your computer for games, just get a gaming console, and over time, it will save you money

You don't have to spend a lot of money to build a GOOD computer, by that I mean a computer that will be able to run any game with top frames for the next 5 or so years, thats like 1500 dollars, which is nothing.Pro tip: Don't buy computers, build them, cost you a lot less.

it is annoying to have upgrade everytime.this is a little off topic but do ya think eventually that pcs might become all the same and everyone will have to buy something like an xbox or ps2 with a keyboard attatched instead of everyone having a different system. in some ways that might be a good thing...

No it is not, but it is worth the money if you can play many games by upgradingIt's not like there's a shortage of games for the PC. If you can't play any of the newer ones, there's a billion older ones to choose from.

I'm a console gamer, I like to play PC games, but I can never get my gaming PC to run the way i want it to, and I don't have the money to rebuild it ir build a new one, but if I had a lot of money to spend on such things, I would spend millions on a high end gaming rig, but like i'd be able to afford anything like that.....Ever
