A gaming PC is less than what you paid for a 360 and a PS3. Nice try though.
It's one thing to buy an inferior product because it's cheaper. It's another to bitch about the lack of features of that product when you knew what you were buying. If I bought a Kia, I wouldn't bitch that it didn't have a turbo-charged 10 cylinder engine.

I'm going to assume that the rest of TNL that's in the know saw this and thought the same super obvious shit I did about your thousands of dollars worth of camera equipment and software which you totally don't need to "invest in".

He uses his camera gear for a career dude. Little different.
I am under the very real, but maybe wrong so correct me if I am, impression that he is not a professional and is not working at a level that is self sufficient. It's a goal and a dream and maybe he'll get there one day, but he has more money dedicated into lenses and software than you need for a down payment on a car, so hearing him talk about more important things when all he's doing is spending money like he's already a professional is kind of silly.
Rhydant is a photographer, like a real one, and he doesn't need 5K worth of shit to take good photos; fuck he has best in show awards for shit he took with an old SLR he got from his uncle and he developed the film himself. Meanwhile a buddy of ours got an SLR two years ago for Christmas and with zero training he has decided that now he needs over twenty terabytes of external storage, about 3K in lenses and thousands of dollars in software to support his new profession and he even printed business cards; meanwhile his photos are fucking terrible and at best look good because they have good color and detail, which is a result of the camera not the man behind it.
I kind of get the feeling that Captain is like our friend, dumping money into something as if that makes you good at it, but I am under the impression he at least has schooling and instruction in the topic. If I'm totally off base now would be a good time to tell me, if he's really a totally busy and legit professional that needs equipment that professionals I know (who rake in six figures) didn't need to get started then I take back my previous statement and go forward from this day knowing that his shit is legit.

I hear a good computer can help make your pictures pretty.

It's perfectly legitimate to complain about missing feature X on the 360 version without being told that really you should be playing it on a gaming PC. Not everyone is interested in hearing the resident PC dweeb whenever they are pointing out problems with the 360 version of game X.
As for spending priorities, they are, well, spending priorities. Honestly a gaming PC isn't very high on many people's lists.

Xbox Live is a fucking peer-to-peer service. There are a very small number of big titles that self fund private servers. It's not a missing feature in a given game. It's complaining about Burger King not serving New York strip.

Not that you would notice, since you don't play online anyway.
