Well said. Both sides of the coin provide equally impressive and fantastic experiences, and it's proportionate to the resources you dump into it. Honestly, I can't believe this thread is still alive. Limiting yourself to one side is limiting yourself to certain game experiences. For me? No thanks, I'll play what looks good regardless of what platform it's on.
Case in point, I was gifted a Onkyo THX certified receiver that originally retailed for $1,099.99. It also came with some Polk speakers. Had I paid retail prices for those combined with my TV, I'd be at a price that costs at least as much as my current PC, if not more.
