Steam is an excellent platform; almost makes the attractiveness of piracy disappear completely.

I'm mostly a PC gamer from way back. Console wise, I'm still enjoying my PS2 and several of the titles that came out for it, although I've enjoyed several fighting/wrestling games on my 360.

I'm playing Skyrim on my PC right now and....MY GOD. This game is crack for the mind. It is hands down the absolute fucking best RPG for the PC that I have ever played.

Playing on a 360 here. Haven't tried MW3 just yet.Its on the "to do" list. Enjoyed MW2 though so will be interesting once i get there.

Currently playing Skyrim. Have previously played NWN and DDO on pc but Skyrim is freaking amazing. I'm pretty much doing eff all else on my spare time. Have had it 2?weeks and am still spending most of my spare time on it and am nowhere near through with it.Its freaking massive,the character developement engine is awesome and the world is really something to experience. Needless to say i love it,and would marry it if i lived in the U.S (also you can get married in-game,but who the **** wants that?? IRL is bad enough lol)

Also, with regards the platform of choice?? 360 (or i guess ps3) is absolutely the way for me to go. PC simply cannot compete on screen size/sound system combos. I play on a 42 plasma with 5.1 sound (small place,so small tv lol) and my pc isn't even close to being in the ballpark immersive gameplay wise. PC is great for other activities,but gameplay?? not even close.

I play on a 27 inch Imac... my screen is higher definition than your plasma... and I run 7.1 surround headphones. Your silly.

Changed my mind about questions for screens and sound system,don't want to derail a great thread.

At that point, you might as well be playing on N64, right? PC 4 L1F3, d00dz.

I think it's a cool idea.

Usually, I don't play that much, but lately,
I have enjoyed the Fable series, as well as Skyrim.

Also, I am quite probably the most notorious retrogamer that is.

Eh, what? Of all the pros of console gaming (convienience, cost), that definitely isn't one of them. My PC will plug into any TV you care to mention and kickfuck your puny Xbox up and down the room in terms of fps, image quality and resolution. And it's not even an expensive PC...

Currently playing: Skyrim... waiting for creation kit. I need to change it! Also BF3, when I can be arsed again.

Currently drooling over: ARMA 3.

And this. ^^

Had the house broken into last week. PS3 and "a number of games" are on the insurance claim. Seeing it as a nice, if enforced chance to have an "out with the old in the new". I figure BF3, MW3, Arkham Island and Skyrim should more than see me through the winter months.
