Off Topic: A Sad Note About PC Games

[Instar]

I myself got an X-box recently, and I think its really fun. As far as I understand it, X-box is not Windows in a box, the hardware is customized from the standard stuff. (It is close I bet, but its not like you can pry the MB from the X-box and use it in a PC)
the only games I have so far are Halo and a football game. I admit the lack of a keyboard mouse combo made adapting to Halo tough. But I got used to it and its really awesome.
Consoles are better suited for some types of games, you have to admit. A console is easier for multiplayer games (2 or more player games for the PC, on one PC that is, are so very rare anymore).
Any graphics on my PC are pretty much blown away by the X-box. Graphics aren't the only thing, but it is a major part. I mean, pong was revolutionary, but its really ugly now. I am sure PC's will remain a market for games.
One note though... I remember some of the dumbest stupid idiotic games were made for the PC. Like swamp mud racing (hey its the official game of the louisiana mud racing association and all...). How can these ideas get off the ground? Maybe they shouldn't have blown their money on crappy games like that.
I intend to buy both X-box and computer games. Dark age of camelot looks really good, even if its subscription based. Serious Sam is for you all shootemup types, or Unreal Turny 2 is coming out (before the Unreal Championship comes out for console, which is just UT 1.5 or something) Neverwinternights is another game I want, but its not ever going to come out! Ugh
