I recently received some money, part of which I have devoted to gaming. So naturally I'm going to blow part of it on a console. I have my brother's Wii, a 360, and I'm getting Xbox Live. My PC is a ridiculous crap factory made in 2003, and it can run some games on Steam, but anything with more graphical intensity than L4D makes it crash. My friend and I looked at all components of a laptop I would reasonably need and use, but I don't have enough money for it. I finally got a job last week with reasonable pay, so I'm saving most of that income.
Question is, should I save all cash for building the PC in about three months or get a PS3 now along with a small pool of games and wait the extra time?
