pc gaming isn't dead, it lives in my..... ah nevermind
alot of companies refuse to make games on PC cause of pirates, thats the excuse anyway...
for about $750-$1000 you could get a top notch PC to run BF3 and its 32vs32 player dedicated servers no peer 2 peer bullshit, the way the game was meant to be played.
its worth it for the experience for games like BF3 and other games in the future.
