you'll end up upgrading consoles just as often as you'd need to upgrade PC parts...so that's not really an issue. Also, if you absolutely despise using the keyboard/mouse config, buy (or make) a gamepad. For old NES and SNES roms I play I wired up a PSX pad to my parallel port and use that 🙂

Once you get used to the keyboard/mouse config it works a LOT better than controllers. With controllers you are limited with the speed you can aim your weapon and rotate in first person shooters, but with a PC you can rotate as quickly as you can move your mouse. It's much more accurate and quick.
 
Also, the NUMBER OF KEYS!!!! Most games console contollers seem to have a rather limited functinality as to the number of keys (buttons) and their location... We all know the layout of the keyboard (right?!?!?!?) So having to hit a certain key to perform a partucular function is easy, no matter what that key is..... honestly... what is your computer Negative Design?? I am sure you could get most of the games you want to play for PC.... and even if you can't there are SO many games that are similar, you'd probably find a game that was better than the one you wanted.. does that make sense?? Anyway, you can buy adapters to plug Playstation and N64 controllers into the USB port.. 🙂
 
dude...what are you talkin about? i dont use my keyboard for anythig but typing. 2 GRAND?? ahaha not me i paid 250 buddy.and i HARDLY play any games, i have games yes.you can never compare a PC to a console. and theres no way a console can do better than a pc. please do more research before you come to a conclusion.
 
Damn, you guys are very defensive about this topic... It makes me laugh... hehe... I was talking 200 for a game console like ps2. Yes, i know you can make (or buy) a nice gaming machine for much less then 2000... For 600 i could make a dual processotr machiine that will rival most super computers (well thats an over statement buy you get the drift). It is funny how every one is right about how one should play games (pc, ps2, xbox, atari)... Could it just be that each person has there own personal preference? I prefer Playstion becuse that is the system that comes out with the gta franchise first. I would never want to play gta on the computer becuse 1: tiny 17" screen. No DIY projector, 2: No couch to lay on, 3: driving with a keyboard is a pain on the hands...
