Ive always wondered something about PC.

How come you cant sell pc games? Does it have to do something with piracy? or copyright law?

And How come for some strange reason, My PC (a Quad-core, 256 dual geforce graphics, 4 gig ram, a dell XPS 710) cant seems to match the lighting effects of console systems? I mean even the wii has better lighting in terms of smoothing .. . My friend said something about scatter plotting on the characters?

You can sell PC games. What you cannot sell is illegally made copies. And since you, as an end-user cannot legally make any copies, the only legal way for you to sell a game would be to sell the copy you purchased, without keeping a copy for yourself.

here's why your PC doesn't keep up w/ consoles as far as fluidity goes

1. consoles display a lower quality picture. Even 1080p is no where near as high a current HD monitors as far as resolution, color depth, and picture quality.

2. All consoles are the same (I don't mean PS3s are the same as Xboxes, I mean all 360s are the same) and so developers can take cross compatibility out of the picture

3. console GPUs and CPUs are made for eachother, literally. They are designed to work together and not with any other combination.

and in the PCs defense

1. PCs put out a better picture

2. PCs are upgradeable

3. you can mod the games on your PC

4. The mouse and keyboard are the current epitome of human interface controls (not an opinion, how many game pads offer over 50 taskable buttons)

5. my PC glows blue and has an alien head (okay, this one doesn't apply)

Check your Hardware system.

Dark MegamanX - you just did two things that are frowned upon in the forums:

1) Resurrecting dead threads (generally if it's over a month old - please don't touch it).

2) Spamming, i.e. adding a fairly useless remark.

Please do not do it in the future.
