The Consoles are around 2 years old already. Even midrange PC's are more powerful now. Look at the Graphic Card industry, cards are dirt cheap now. For RM400-RM500 you can get a decent card capable of playing Crysis at the highest settings.

Games were meant for the PC anyway, they started from the PC. Without the PC, there wont be games. Not to mention the fact that Consoles are basically just PC's especially the XBox which is an X86 based processor.

The Xbox360 still costs a bomb now RM1.2K around there. With that amount no doubt you can sufficiently upgrade your current PC to match the best that are out there.

So there is no competition.

1.5K for a blu ray player,wifi enabled media center
VS
500 bucks for just the graphics card.

not forgetting the RAM,OS,HDD,etc..

if you want to go the pirate way,then definitely pc is cheaper (assuming you're more than fine not upgrading anytime soon)
go original,and consoles are not only cheaper,but less headache too.(pc=incompatibility issues,driver issues,patch problems,etc= rclxub.gif )

besides,not everyone leaves their pc in the living room,but the console sits snug right there.

You forgot you need another RM3K for a HD TV set to play and even the the resolution is only 1080P max
