Finally, Consoles Catch Up to PCs

nxe-install-to-hard-drive1.jpgReally, with the massive power-to-cost difference, there are only a few areas in which consoles pale compared to PCs, when it comes to gaming.  If I had to pick three, they’d be: the lack of a mouse+keyboard; the lack of open access to thousands of independently developed games; and the lack of really long installs, during which the game copies itself to your hard drive for seemingly no improvement to load times.

While some of us have been able to replicate that experience by purchasing Metal Gear Solid 4, now there’s finally a chance for the rest of us.

    Ooohhh… can I upgrade the video card in my 360 next, and spend days trying out different driver versions to get my various games working decently?
