Entertainment/Gaming Consoles

Well, when you have friends and they come over to your house, trash talking and eating Pringles while playing Dead or Alive 3 is a lot of fun. When you have no friends and therefore spend all of your time on your computer playing Diablo II or Starcraft, the prospect of actually meeting people and playing games with them is probably pretty scary, therefore making one of the major allures of a game console a detriment instead..

Plus, you've obviously never played Metal Gear Solid. MGS makes Diablo II and Starcraft and Quake 3 and every other computer game obsolete. It may not look like much (it was on the PlayStation, for christ's sake), but it's got it where it counts - story and gameplay and depth. You'd be hard pressed to beat it on any platform.

Besides, I want to play games on a big screen, not a 19" monitor.
