PC Gaming vs. Console?

Triple core CPUs such as those found in the xBox360, ..., are real cheese for inexpensive console gaming, but in the world of PC Gaming there's a more unsympathetic demand on hardware. The looming question, "Is PC Gaming Dead?" is like asking "whatever happened to IBM?". Here's a clue --> www.IBM.com! Sure enough, the giants of the industry are omni-present which gaurantees that the game you play on a console device was, is, will be developed, in some way or another, on a Personal Computer. IBM has made good on the concept and made hoards of cash on a great idea even now. PC gaming has ruled the early days from the 1980's with titles like Ultima. The era of consoles is but a shadow spin-off of the quickly advancing technology of a PC. With the raw processing power of the PC last year easily reaching 200 Billion Instructions Per Second, it blows away the 19.2BIPS of the Xbox360, 10.2 for the Playstation and 1.7 on the Wii.

The level of sophistication is only a matter of time and money. There is always time, so all we need is a little bit of cash, say around $1,200 of the green. Here, in Merritt, BC, we are going to build a new GRiD BuG from an Extreme Graphics & Gaming computer project, or E.G.G., for short. It's all about High Frame Rates, Gaming Experience, Stability, Economics and being EcoFreindly using recent advances in power-saving technology combined with smooth styling and glow. One word? Awesome!
