Hardware occlusion is included in most games (and cards) now, afaik.

PC, of course. Old school. In fact, I never had a console. I started with an Atari 800 and never looked back.

Consoles, from my perspective are for kids. I play on the Wii with my grandsons. I watch family play Rock Star on my son's console.

Also, AFAIK, the console version of DA:O is a compromised version of the PC game -- at least it seems that way.

EA made me an offer I couldn't refuse, sending me the PC CE next day air, with tons of bonus extras, that promptly arrived Nov. 3rd for $48 delivered.
