Are Next Gen Consoles Making You Think About Ditching Your PC?

Good, probably because at one point everyone was saying it in virtually every post. Got tedious to say the least.
 
Currently and for the next year at least I use computer and consoles for gaming, right now my computer is decent spec. I use the computer for far more than gaming though, and recently the games I've been playing haven't been too hardware demanding. I can't see me totally ditching the PC as a games format as long as some genres just work BETTER on the PC. Although the Wii will introduce a new kind of FPS that could be superior to mouse and keyboard if executed correctly, PC games still have bonuses I can't see ever reaching consoles, namely the pretty limitless customobility from mods.

Also, due to inevitable restrictions on console internet, it remains much easier to communicate and to organise online games on the PC... although I haven't got an Xbox (/360), I believe console online game matching up services are in a pretty good state now and improving so this point might be moot in a couple years time. My online experiences with the PS2 were pretty poor, and with the DS excellent fun yet extremely limited.

So, I won't ditch my PC but as consoles improve in the areas more unique to the PC, I expect my PC gaming, and PC gaming in generally, to be neglected somewhat.

LOL no, my excellent monitor from OCUK > any crappy tv unless I seriously invest a lot!

Plus PC games multiplayer mean a screen each, console multiplayer mean splitting (an otherwise small screen) again and again...

Plus I don't rate very highly the games on consoles, though it has been a while... was a bit of a nintendo fanboi, might have to wait till their next one...
