I skimmed through it, saw "Dragon Age", and now I like you. Well done.
I was brought up on PC too, but I was transferred to Xbox too early in my life for me to change my ways now. I still prefer PC for RTS and simulation games, but FPS, RPG and the like are now console exclusive for me.
It's.. a bittersweet feeling.
Yeah, I hear you.
I was raised on PC gaming, since I first typed 'CD wolf3d' in DOS. I saw the enjoyment of Nintendo, but never had a console, until the Xbox came out. I already had a PC gaming rig, and wanted to try something new, so I went for it and got the Xbox.
Then, as time went by, my attention shifted, slowly, to the console over the PC. I still played my favourites (Baldur's Gate, for example) on the PC, as well as specific genres (Like RTS games), but everything else was played on the Xbox.
When the 360 came out, I had to make a choice: Build a new PC, or get a 360.
I only had money for one or the other, and both would step my into the 'next gen' of gaming.
I chose the 360.
And you know what? I'm totally happy with it. There are things I miss about PC gaming, but there are things I don't miss either. I've got a console now that runs the games I play at great detail all the time. No tweaking, no trouble shooting. I like that. I just put it in and play.
Plus I like playing from my couch on my nice TV!
PC gaming still holds a place in my heart (And I still play Baldur's Gate on my netbook!), but I'm a consoler now, and I'm happy with it.
