Why PC gaming will always be better than consoles

this may sound like a crackpot theory but i've recently come to this conclusion

I finally convinced a friend lately to buy the Fallout 3 game of the year edition, i nagged him for the longest time telling him how great the game is, and i know it's the type of game he would like, so finally when the game of the year edition came out he bought it

One night at his place we were having a few beers and i watched him play for an hour, once we called it quits i realized that the 360 version is a completely different experience than what i had playing on the PC

the lack of overall detail on the 360 changed my entire feelings for the game watching him play, without the level of detail you are not nearly immersed nor does the world feel as real as it does on the PC

everything looked so dreary and dark, washed out and blurry

keep in mind this was on a 52" Bravia XBR4 so it's not like i was watching on a tube TV, but yea without that level of detail games are not nearly what they truely are, especially ones that have the amazing graphics

i do give games like Drake's revenge their credit but it's still and always will be PC for me, some screens i took
