I knew you would think I was talking about these games..but just because i mentioned 2 of the best graphics engine I wasn't implying towards their respecive games..I love BF3 and I really liked Crysis2..
The emphasis was that game-play and other aspects are more important than the graphics..

Ps3 or pc... lol the age old million dollar question. No one can really tell you hell you cant even yourself decide wether you would want a pc or a ps3. I am a really big fan of simulator driving and hence i like gran turismo series, for me it was really essential i get a ps3 for gt5. Exclusives like uncharted and gran turismo will never come to the pc. And it is wrong to say that these games are for kiddies, infact imho i really feel that the only let down of a console is its hardware otherwise a console offers much higher fun factor and sense of immersion than a computer can. Even with top notch FPS titles releasing on the pc as well as the ps3 i will prefer to buy them for my ps3 because i like to play on my ps3. The point i am trying to drive home in simple words is that it is your choice, and it is not comparable each has pros and cons.

PCs need constant hardware upgrades to be able to play all the games at the best possible settings...and if u say, just dial the settings down a notch, then isn't that what we are already getting in a Console..better gaming experience with a stripped down visual?

I think that works pretty well. Battlefield 3 for example, I play the game in medium settings to get a higher framerate and game still kicks a$$ in terms of visuals and destruction. And ofcourse the map size, player count are all higher than the console counterpart.
Skyrim is also a good example. The game is still not fixed properly on PS3, has terrible draw distance on both the consoles, bu looks great on PC even at the medium settings. Dont forget the mods too, its something everybody must experience before they want to make any comments, they improve the hell out of the game.

you just cant say that because a ps3 has lower eye candy and for that much i can get a much better pc its useless. The argument is totally baseless because when the ps3 was released there very no systems which could perform with that power. And thats what is going to happen even with the next generation of consoles. The ps4 will have more power than a 7970 combined with a i7 in crossfire. All the pc fanatics will turn away because it will be quite expensive. After 4 years when the prices drop down and the pc becomes cheaper they will all say and i quote " HAHA look at those poor *******s spent 60k on a piece of junk which cant even run crysis 4 on 4k resolution and full 3D. I just bought a pc for 35k with a screen and i can own crysis. "

Gaming experience is not always about visual quality is it? if game play was all about graphics then we would be better off playing the most graphically intense games ever irrespective of their story line and characters. For me an immersive game is one where i feel a part of the game, like a natural flow i can connect with the characters and i feel i get my moneys worth when i play the game. Not run around in a Invisible suit in a jungle hoping for some cheap alien invasion.

But this doesn't mean that Consoles are inferior to PC..they give so much more than better visuals..and u cannot use a PC as relaxed as u were using a PC..I know I can't...

Oh btw, my first console purchase would be PS4 :D PC vs consoles comparison aside, games on PS have always been more mature, creative and a little anti-casual. specially stuff like Journey, Heavy Rain.. gotta admire the PS library.

I ve played all the console games you mentioned above, and they looked good for what they are. There were a ton of moments where i found those games down right ugly, yeah even uncharted.

Not sure about that. Now I don't have a console, so I wont give a crap about the pricing and all. But PC gaming hasn't been that costly for me.
Or may if you have some free time, make up a mock PC configuration, a mid range PC will do and compare it with the console investment.
I believe that the difference wont be very large. The costly PC hardware makes up for the cheaper games(STEAM!! :D) and the cheaper console hardware makes for the costly games, subscription stuff etc. Please don't flame me about this, Im no console gamer, just making some assumptions.
