I get 750$ every two years from the company to spend on PC hardware. I thought about upgrading my PC, then I realized I had consoles, so I forgot about that.

So next I thought, "hey, what about a nice little HTPC?".

So I'll probably order it this week.

Sweet.

Sorry for being nosy, but how come?

Company incentive to have their employees up to date with computer stuff.

Awesome company!

And the PC doesn't sound that bad. Are you planning on using it as a media PC for your home theater?

Yep. I'll probably order it with the MS wireless combo and use it as my Home Theater PC, since it comes with home premium.

Don't be a homo, homovonio, and play some games on it.
Homovonio has consoles.

Wow what a wast of money. For that cash you could have something that would enable you to play definitive versions of games.

Yeah, not really.

Kosma, that's a terrible comparisson. The Wii barely gets any good games and certainly doesn't get them first like the real consoles do.

Yeah you're right. But you know what I mean.

Its ok, Kosma. You'll get over your PC fetish like I did years back. Keep telling yourself "I didn't waste my money, they'll see!"

Yeah except I build a PC for the price of a PS3 and it outperforms consoles on all titles available on both platforms  :lol

Enjoying that laptop?

PC gaming offers too little variety, no matter how powerful your PC is.

Post by: Philip Cardgage on November 27, 2008, 11:35:46 AM
That and I don't like the fact that the performance suffers from the other things I do on my PC.

Consoles have the same performance, whenever you play.

Fuck it, you guys are right. I'm building a gaming machine. I can still use my 360 as a HTPC lite for a while.
