PS3, personally. :D But between a 360 and a PC I'd buy a 360 because a good gaming PC is gonna cost a lot more than a 360

A good PC will be nice and fast for all sorts of things, even gaming! Oh yeah, and online play is free on a PC.

A Pc most of the games on the 360 you can find online plus they often look better and have better online capabilities.

It depends, what kind of games do you prefer? Say, if you liked fighting games don't go with a pc. PCs are good for RTS's and I hear they are good for shooters, but meh. RPGs like Fallout are more fun, so I hear, because you can mod it, etc. Valve games are better for PC. So I say, PC.

If money is not an issue, you can get a VERY good gaming PC for $1000 or a bit less that outperforms the 360's image quality, get a 360 controller, and enjoy Games for Windows - LIVE titles as if you were playing on an Xbox 360...

On the other hand, the Xbox 360 is only around $300, and has a lot of other games that are exclusive to it... and a $300 computer can't match that graphical quality... maybe PS3's graphical quality, but not 360's, that's for sure...

All in all, tough decision, that's why I have both lol... what kind of games do you like the most? don't get a PC expecting to play good fighting, racing, plattforming or adventure games, but expect tons of FPS and RTS games...

Also, when are you gonna get it? It's not a good time to get a gaming PC, since fully compilant DirectX 11 cards are just around the corner (current ATi HD 3k and 4k are already DX11 compatible, due to the tier-division of DX11 tech, but they are mainly DX10.1 cards, not completely DX11), along with the software to enable it's usage (Windows 7)... so if you'll be buying it now, get an Xbox 360 now, and Project Natal next year...
