Actually I would say the xbox once it's chipped is more of a mini pc for the tv rather than a console.

meh, imo consoles are better than pc in some game genres. Racing for example is easier with a console controller than tapping up down left and right

I have been Nintendo man since i was very little. I even played the old NES.
And some nintende games never come on pc, Zelda series for example, Mario etc...

But i would never buy a XBOX360:
1)id rather buy the new nintendo console.
2)MS are greedy bastards, they make pc and console, just to get a bigger market share. They release every MS game on PC and XBOX360. And any other game on XBOX360 also comes on PC, so useless to buy a XBOX360
3) THe box is $$$ and is unstable.

Or you can just plug a controller into your rig.
But the issue is that there arent as many race and platforming games for the pc as there are for consoles.
