I moved to Mac aeons ago, and just buy a new console when the new Xbox editions come out. For the price of just and upgrade in the PC world, I get years of happy gaming on my Xbox. Sure, I had one die, once, so what? Still cheaper than monkeying around on the PC machine.

My Mac does all the other stuff a computer should do - internet, word, whatever, and by not being a PC gamer, I don't have to upgrade my Mac as often either. Which means I can buy all the Xbox games I want, when they come out!

Win. Just win.
amen. Almost my exact rational. The upgrading is just ridiculous, and I'm loving my mac/360 combo. My only regret is the inability to play 1946(have I made that clear enough yet? )

LOL, your sig is awesome... lol. I don't think I'll ever buy another "gaming" PC again. I bought mine last year in Late November, and it's pretty much outdated now =|

I honestly dont see the problem in "keeping up" with the hardware. Ive got a 3 year old rig and its still giving me great gaming and good performance on pretty much every single game I throw at it. I havent updated anything other than adding in more storage space. And its not even a "top end" rig for its day, its a budget computer.

The only game Ive had any kind of performance problem with is Crysis. And practicaly everyone does, so thats no biggy.

My comps an AMD X2 @2.7ghz/2x1gb DDR2/ATi HD3870 512. I havent yet had a game on this system thats made me need to upgrade. This from a sub £400 PC 3 years ago.

Dont be fooled, PC gaming now has been pegged for ages. Its barely had any development done beyond console level.

I think the terrorist level where you walk around an airport machine gunning scores of screaming men and women is gonna cause MW2 big problems with certification...just seems a step too far...Makes GTA look like Rainbow Island (tm)
Activision has been pulling down clips off youtube left and right...
