Yes, an uber-specced PC that will eat any console for breakfast.
It's like comparing an abacus to a Cray computer.Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

For a laugh I recently put together a tip-top uber-PC spec at http://pcspecialist.co.uk, choosing what looked like the fastest and top of the range of everything, and it came to around £2,800.

Strangely enough I've worked on lots of games. Yet, I can't stand them.Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.
