    He pretty much addressed your reply with his second to last sentence. I'm guessing you didn't read that part.
    Also, who cares? I have little interest in playing GTA4 regardless of how good mod teams make the graphics.

    Hardcore gaming will always be a PC to me. Console exclusives are not enough for me to buy a console. Games go on sale more often and multiplayer interfaces are much easier to navigate to me.

    The only benefit consoles have over PCs, to me, is split screen multiplayer options. PC can't offer that because it has to be one screen, one player, but consoles have the capability to have split screen multiplayer. Unfortunately, those days are phasing out as games have shifted out co-op or multiplayer.

    I'll probably end up getting a WiiU for that purpose in the future, but I don't really care for hardcore gaming on consoles any more as PC caters to me better.

    PC's could do split screen if we wanted to, but most people gaming on a PC are doing it solo....

    And we can do lots of screens to generate a cockpit experience too.

    I have every major console right now, and a relatively powerful PC. I'd much rather play games on the consoles.

    I work on a PC all day, and all of my studying is on a PC as well. The last thing I want to do is be hunched over my desk when I play games.

    I like both, but given the choice (and ignoring the mouse/kb and controller differential since I do well with either) I'll play on one of the consoles.

    The only way I could have predicted that any better is if I said "Show us an optimised game that is now from an old console generation and that came out a number of years ago".

    Cheerleaders are ****ing stupid....

    You can have poor ergonomics a lot easier sitting at a desk than having a controller in your lap.
