For the first time since I built it my PC was unable to run a game that got recently released (R6: Vegas) due to my video card...Kindove a kick in the arse since I need a X1300 and up to play it because of shaders 3.0 even though my card is clocked at higher speeds and has faster ram than a X1300 or 1600 (I have an X800XL) so it's the first time it doesnt run what i want it to. And thus came to the realization that I will need to upgrade soon...($ i dont have...)
I ended up not buying a WII for christmas....I bought a Nintendo DS Lite (onyx) instead.

Along with the New Super Mario Bros and Final Fantasy III...So far it's meeting and surpassing my expectations. I have only played with it for about a day so far but i love the feel of an old-school style platformer like the new SMB.

I really think you should just ditch the comp for playing the latest games, because there ere cool classics you could play that are waaaay better than rainbow six. If you are really wise though i recommend that you get an XBOX 360 because there is no need for upgrading the graphics in it and the games for it are awesome!!!
I have been playing Saints Row and Gears of War alot recently and i am still having fun over XBOX Live
