Holy ! That's like a good full exhaust system for my car (header, cat convertor, and catback exhaust) plus like a carbon fiber hood and some other . Some of that stuff was a gift but still...

Plus I've owned N64, Genesis, SNES, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance too.

If you only had an idea of what a custom built system is like...

I do believe the creator of this thread was looking for console system totals. PC does not = console. Well, maybe Xbox. :p
Nadi
x-box= $200
controller = $25
4 games(new) = $200(total)

N64= $250
controler = $30
4 games(new)=200
7 or 8 games(don't own it anymore and not sure)=$200-250

total = $1100+

boo :(

It depends on what kinda games you play. FPS rule the PC. I prefer 3rd person action / adeventure games. Legacy of Kain, Tenchu, CastleVania....those are console type games. Fighting games on the PC? Forget it. I bet Prince of Persia controls much better on the PS2 than your PC. Yeah the money is a point but 2 years from now you have to upgrade your Pc too- and that cost a hella lot more than a new console evry 4-5 years. I like games for both formats, but for different reasons. The cosole industry DWARFS the PC industry too. But more popular dosen't always mean better.
