Sounds really expensive... probably won't be getting one till the prices drop.

My plan is to use the money I'd spend on the next Xbox and get a good PC instead.

This is the correct plan

PC gaming for everyone

Here comes Metal in 3...2...1....

converting the SeC slowly through the evil influences of TF2, Minecraft and EvE Online are you?

I think N america and Europe is having a major shift to PC gaming the past year or so, which is great to see.

outdated consoles and expensive Next-Gens matched by PCs is a large factor i think. the recent drive for graphics just isn't working on the 360 and PS3 in comparison to the PC. sure, Skyrim on the 360 looks great, but the PC blows it out of the water. if you want amazing graphics you need a PC, and since more people want amazing graphics, more people are getting PCs.

i'll still use a 360 gamepad for Just Cause 2 though, fuck digital driving/flying/parachuting.

I use for gamepad for all console games like JC2. Its another misconception that you have to use M/KB for everything. I used my gamepad for JC2, Batman AC and AA and many more games.

I'm pretty sleep deprived,but, I read the other day (dunno if anybody posted here,probably read it on gfaqs)

well anyways,the other day some documents got leaked from MS showing the timeline for the 720 coming out holiday 2013,with the basic model costing $299

try to drive a Hamaya Cougar at top speed with digital controls... its nigh impossible.

I need a joystick to fly jets in BF3. They handle like a three legged giraffe with m/kb.

Well there is a good chance that Sony and MS will have much cheaper consoles with a monthly pay-plan just like the cell phone industry. Smart move on their part.

In fact isn't MS testing that with the current 360 somewhere?
