If you think the people on L4D demo suck (no teamwork, immature, grievers, etc) just wait till you play with the kiddies on xbox live.

Also, PC = mods, some of the most fun I've had in games in general. And MMOs are just a fad right now, they'll eventually pass.

i had a nice long informative post typed up, but i figured meh, if your even considering this, then obviously there is no hope, so i'll just keep it at a minimum..

Only "kiddies" I find on XBOX LIVE are on Halo 2 and 3 and after the release of 3 I dont even bother playing, other than that Gears 1 & 2, COD 2,3,4 are slim to none to have "kiddies"

That excuse is getting a little old now, the newer ones are now more or less RRoD proof.

You can basically only game on the 360, and you don't have a choice of which server to actually play on.

PC's dont break like xbox's do. PC's beat the xbox 360s power by alot and their is a horrible community on xbl. pc community is at least mature.

My PC's had problems for months, and stopped booting yesterday because my RAM died.

My 360 has worked perfectly since the day I bought it.

As for communities, play some CS:S and tell me that it's a "mature" gaming community.

Like everyone else says, customisation, graphics, control, etc. The only gaming system I would consider getting is the Wii (which I have) because it's truly different. Almost all other console games are available for PC with better graphics and better controls in one form or another. If you like X360 controllers, which I do for certain crappy ports from X360 games and various emulators, X360 controllers, both wireless and wired, work with Windows as regular controllers. The other issue is that when your PC breaks, you fix it. When your X360 breaks, you do like an Apple customer and buy a new one or pay close to that price to have it fixed by the only company that supports it.
