Yeah right, video games consoles are incorporating 3-D technology just
like PC's are...my whole point is I don't have to keep upgrading ever
6months if I purchase a good console, which are cost about 150 bucks vs
a good 3-d card (300 bucks!!)

Don't get me wrong about all pc games, I'm just saying that consoles
seemed to be better suited for the types of games I enjoy playing.

Maybe he has a better video card than I do, There are many factors
besides RAM and CPU. I know that hexen2 won't run worth a shit on my
computer at this point.
