Default PC or 360?
I have CoD:4, WAW, and MW2 all for 360, but lately I've been thinking about switching to a mainly PC gamer, And since Black Ops is out and I plan on buying it very soon, I was wondering if I could get some input from you guys, what are the pros/cons of PC gaming versus console gaming? And could someone explain Steam to me, I had it once but I didn't look into it much and it didn't work very well for me. Any input will be greatly appreciated

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I didn't know what else to put it in.

If your PC can run it well, get it on PC.

Steam is an online store amongst other things. Someone more familiar with it can explain it better.

PC. It's just better. I'd play on PC, but I cba to get another computer just for that purpose, and I still do like the feel of a controller. Otherwise PC is just about better, besides the hacking blah blah blah negative negative negative...

Reasons why the PC is a superior platform, particularly for FPSs: Console Vs PC

Disadvantages of a PC, rebutted (slightly quickly in retrospect lol) Console Vs PC

This is getting repetitive.

Steam is a UI similar to the Xbox dashboard. It makes finding/communicating with friends either, you can download games direct, automatic game patching and stuff like that. Takes a week or two to familiarise yourself with it, just the same as any other.

I used to be an Avid CS Source player for PC, and I play MW2 on console. It's hard to compare because the games are different. But just something about the feel of the recliner, controller, and TV make it awesome.

It's not even a debate. The answer should be obvious to anyone who asks people who actually know what they're talking about.
