>> The PC version often ends up being much better than the console version. Assuming there is a PC version of the game in question. In the age since the first XBox, consoles have brought a lot of PC-style gaming to the masses (mainly FPS games), but there are also a ton of non-FPS gaming genres that don't have a very large presence on PC. I used to be a big console guy and would love to move to a PC-centric gaming environment -- but because I don't do FPS or MMORGs, my gaming options are much more limited -- I'm into fighting and rhythm games. Hopefully the emergence of things like the Steam Machines will change this situation and big named publishers start producing more PC-based ports of their console hits.
