Got myself a PS3. Going to a console feels a bit like a betrayal of my PC gaming past, but it was unavoidable. It was just a matter of time...
Since the release of the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii, the PC gaming scene has been visibly affected. There are so many signs: games that come very late to PC (e.g.: GTA) or never do, multi-platform games that come out solid on the consoles but with severe quality issues on the PC (Flatout, Call Of Duty), Top 10 sales almost exclusively made of console titles, stores dominated by all the console titles with a little corner for the PC games, etc.
I wish it wasn't so. Console gaming is great (I'm very happy with my purchase), but it is not perfect. For example, I think it is ridiculous to play a First Person Shooter without a mouse. Also, where the PC joined gamers, the consoles divide them. I can't play with all my gamer friends--I am restricted to play with those on the PS3 (sorry, Francisco, Matthew, and others!)
In summary, the PS3 is awesome, but a PC used to be better...
