To settle some issues re the below debate....

Wow things are really dragging my little story along.
well anyway i took the liberty of clearing the air re this link:
http://www.techradar.com/news/gaming/12-reasons-pc-gaming-is-better-than-consoles-485178?src=rss&attr=all

1. Mouse and keyboard support -- Available on PS3/Xbox360
2. High screen resolutions -- Available on PS3/Xbox360
3. Free mods -- free downloadable content on PS3/Xbox360
4. Upgradeable hardware -- difficult but no impossible on console (what u think it runs on air?)
5. Cheaper games -- debatable in SA
6. You're not tied to one online service -- unfortunate but who needs online anyways
7. No extra dosh needed for playing online -- dabatable
8. Unlimited storage space -- yes no maybe things change
9. Save game hacking -- im sorry what?
10. Unofficial fixes for older games -- wow the security of that feature amazes me
11. Abandonware -- im sorry who??
12. No red ring of death -- yeah just BSOD?

Thanks

Point 11. Abandonware is awesome for some of us who know where gaming started and still enjoy those old classics...i.e Zork, kings quest, hot rod, indiana jones etc.
Point 12. All a BSOD costs u is a re-install...WOW!
