A lot of good points for all. Makes sense about the ups and downs of interest in pc gaming or consoles. Starcraft64 IMO was (compared to PC) awful. Battle for Middle Earth, which I have for the xbox360, (compared to PC) is awful.
There are some genres that are more fun on the PC. I think part of the problem is that if you don't get into computers early on in life, you tend to get left behind. Speaking of graphics cards, that's probably my biggest problem. I got a 1MB comp, but it has Split DDR Memory whatever the heck that means. Well, I found out it means you can actually only play 512 games, not 1MB. Needless to say, I was kinda pissed off.
But that's what I get for not researching/being knowledgeable about computers. However, if I go to the retail store and buy an xbox360 game, it WILL work on my system.
Anybody want to make millions? You create an ipod nano sized device w/ a USB plug. You plug it into your computer, it reads your system specs, then you take it to the local PC retail store. From now on, every store has a little computer device (this TYPE of thing is popular in Japan for dl'ing Nintendo DS stuff BTW) that you can plug your little ipod nano device into. You bring up the game you are looking at buying, and it tells you whether or not it will work, how WELL it will work, etc etc.
All I ask is that when you invent it, after you make a million dollars, maybe send me a check for $100,000 US. After that, keep everything else you make.
