    PC Gaming is dead because consoles are a lot cheaper and easier to maintain, espeically with these new powerful hardware nowadays. For PC games, u always need to keep your CPU and graphics card up to date and a decent graphics card already the cost of a xbox 360 or a PS3. You have to understand that not everybody wants to spend so much on PC just to do gaming. Right now, PC market becomes hardcore users only, or those who wants to play illegal downloads. Look at EA's strategy, they now release Madden on consoles not PC. Wake up guys, it's the era for budget gaming.

    It still doesn't warrant that PC gaming is dead. Fact is, some games play better on a PC (RTS, FPS) and some would play better on a console (sports, fighting). I play TF2 on my PC and Madden on my 360, and I wouldn't have it any other way. As much as I love the convenience of Xbox Live, I also enjoy upgrading, tweaking and benchmarking my gaming PC, it gives me some sense of accomplishment, ownership... even attachment to a system I planned on, built and customized.

    What's sad is considering how strongly consoles borrow from PC gaming technology, why would anyone even begin to celebrate the death of PC gaming? Some of the most brilliant minds in the gaming industry started creating games for the PC, and it doesn't take a genius to figure out that under the hood of that Xbox is pretty much a PC.

    So it comes down to this: Console gamers and PC gamers have a lot more in common than most of us realize... some of us are even both. There is no need to alienate ourselves from one another. Give peace a chance.

    Both consoles and PC's are good, but you can get a different classes of games on PC that you can't get on consoles (exaple Gothic, space emipes etc.) that are a bit more of a nitch market. I almost exclusivly play on 360 now but there are games out there that I like alot that will never ship on a console
