With every major CRPG release being co-developed for Xbox and the Xbox
price point dropping to sub-$200 levels, is there any good reason to
keep upgrading PCs with expensive graphics cards?
Well, no, you should be upgrading your PC with moderately priced graphics
cards. Ones that cost considerably less than the $300 a decent Xbox
360 with a hard drive costs. Or more once you consider the cost of an
Xbox Live! Gold subscription ($50/year), and maybe things like an Xbox
360 Wireless Networking Adapter ($100), if you don't want wires running
through your living room, an HDMI cable, or even the cost of upgrading
to an HD-capable TV. Add in the additional $10 price of most Xbox 360
games, and real cost of owning an Xbox 360 in necessarily that much
better compared to the real cost of owning a gaming PC.
