...Which would either have you squinting at the eighteen-incher from half the room away, or else sitting at a desk using the console in place of a computer tower. Either one would completely negate the "relaxation" argument towards console play, which, as far as I know, is the only angle you guys have got working for you -- and a weak one, at that, but I digress.
Also, that still won't do anything about the fact that you've got inadequate AA, probably no AF at all, and graphics settings are just horribly neglected. -------------------- Passion is inversely proportional to the amount of real information available. - Benford's Law of Controversy |

Yeah, but it still allows you the experience of Oblivion as it would be on a PC at a lower price, which is also one of the arguments for consoles. |

I wonder if that really is the case... I mean a computer gives you a lot more opportunities than a console, thus more for the money. But even if you're only going to use the computer/xbox to play games there is this limitation to xbox-only games for the xbox were PC often gets a PC-version of many console-games. Also there is the price, the incredible price of console-games today is far much higher than for the PC, so If you need to keep your xbox updated with games that is going to cost a LOT. So, ok, xbox is cheaper to start with, in case you might only want to play oblivion, but if you want other games then the price is going to go up very fast and you'll soon reach a price you could have bought a nice computer for. Oh yeah, and you contribute to Bill Gates domination of the world  .-------------------- |
