What type of gamer are you?

[Cheese]

PC.

Massive variety of games, from commercial games to homebrew games. Mods are very important as well as they can make a great game even better. Mouse and keyboard is infinitely easier to use than a joypad (except for football games..). Being able to upgrade hardware to get the best graphics is also very nice.

In fact, the only thing that has tempted me to buy a console is the lack of any decent wrestling games on the PC.

That's right I forgot about mods but now that consoles have gone internet, they have mods too they just have to be "approved".

I really don't understand why consoles don't have mice. FPSs and RTSs are just better with them.

No question- PC gamer- I've never even owned a console before. besides, I can't stand the console controler. besides, while a computer is more money, it offers so much more outside of games that I can't justify the purchase of a console. oh ya, and I don't own a tv to hook the console up to anyways.

PC Gamer, with some console gaming every now and then.

Oh, and handhelds. PSP + Devhook + 4GB MS = The shit.

Tell me about it.....but i have 2GB dammit.

They have to be paid for as well unfortunately, Oblivion for the 360 has six or seven mods that cost about $2 each whereas the PC has an absolute plethora of free mods. In the case of Oblivion I can't imagine not playing it with a least 20 "vital" mods installed (such as No Psychic Guards, Oscuro's Overhaul and BTMod). Vanilla Oblivion is good but flawed.

I tend to think they'll keep the mods as having to be "approved" because the games companies and M$ like the idea of receiving micro-payments after they have sold you the game.

Of course, the counter-argument I guess, is that for a game like Oblivion for the PC you need to spend a fucking fortune and a fair bit of tweaking to have it running at its graphical best

True dat but free is free. I didn't know 360's mods cost money. I mean XB Live already costs money.

If I get a modded 360, I wonder is there a way for me to get the mods for free as well (internet) for a game such as Oblivion (for 360 of course).

I have a modded Xbox and want to get the mods for Splinter Cell (extra missions) but haven't looked into it yet.

To your last, I try to get a hook-up on graphics cards but they don't come by often. Memory doesn't cost much and I can usually find a legal good deal...often.

PC all the way
