Let's compare the PS3 to PC with Battlefield 3. One of the biggest differences is one supports only 24 players, the other supports 64 players. a 32 versus 32 war is WORLDS different than a 12 versus 12 battle. The PS3 simply can't handle that many simultaneous connecting players. BF3 also runs at 1280x704 (it upscales) on the PS3, while you can run it at 1920x1080 (native) on the PC. Which makes a big difference.

There's really no comparing, my PC I built for $1,000 will run circles around any console when it comes to gaming. Consoles are behind the times graphically. They look nice, PC looks better.

This is coming from a console gamer who's favorite game series is a console exclusive. (Halo)
Agreed! I just built a gaming PC for the first time a few weeks ago, and I can honestly say that it is going to be very difficult to go back to console gaming. Getting a constant 120+ FPS on BF3 blows my mind on how much I have been missing out. Anyone who thinks consoles are ahead of PC has never seen either of the Crysis games with visual mods.





I was one of the unfortunate ones who paid $600 for my fat 60GB PS3 a few months after launch. While it still works like a champ, I barely play it. I don't think I've played a PS3 game in well over a year. I mainly used it to rehash some good times playing Socom 2, but now that those servers are shut down it sits and collects dust. PS3 just doesn't have the same lure that PS2 did for me.
