99% of what EB/Gamestop stocks is console crap anyway, and for PC stuff I almost always order online (and generally via digital download).

  

It's funny.  I ditched PC for gaming a number of years ago as I didn't want to constantly have to upgrade my system to be able to play games.  Now, after some time on consoles, I don't know if I really like it.  Computers are getting more powerful nowadays, so not too sure if I'd be stuck with the same problem I had with PC years ago.  I may get an i7 3.4GHz 2.0 TB AMD Radeon HD 6770 system I've seen at Future Shop (sells for about $1000).  These monsters can run pretty much any game.  I also found that the same game for PC is usually way cheaper than that of consoles.
