I can't stand friggin consoles, and especially can't stand their stupid little controllers either. That $200 could be better spent on... well, just about anything else. :wink:

I'll give you that the consoles don't have any racing
simulators that are as good as the ones on the PC... but F1-2002 is out on XBox too, and well I was done w/ NASCAR games right about the same time I stopped watching NASCAR on TV. There's plenty of sweet PC racing games, but none of them are new... my computer from 2000 will run all of them just fine, so I have a hard time justifying a $400 video card.
Meanwhile there are a ton of sweet racing games for the consoles:
Grand Turismo 3
Rally Sport Challenge 1 & 2
Project Gotham Racing 1 & 2
Colin McRae 4
NFS Underground
and GT4 should be out real soon!
Not that any of these games can hold a torch to the simulators on the PC, they are all very FUN and have all come out since the last worth while PC game came out.
Let's face it... the PC as a gaming platform is going away. Consoles are getting the horsepower, and more importantly, the support, to completely replace them. When the next generation of consoles come out, I hope to be able to ditch my PC in favor for a tiny, light laptop and a wicked console that I don't have to think about since it will simply run cool games, fast.
I'll tinker with and spend money on my car. Computers just aren't a fun hobby anymore... not unless someone actually comes out with a hyper realistic driving
simulator that's easy to install, run, and update.
