PC is the only platform where people seem willing to release completely broken games. Not with some bugs or something, but flat out broken, do not do what they're supposed to.

Several large PC publishers have a massive hardon for insane DRM systems, because they seem to think that inconveniencing paying customers will encourage pirates to become paying customers.
These, plus the fact that some newer games (and even some fairly recent ones that didn't just come out) require insane specs to play. Look at the Crysis games. You'll get screwed over wanting to play those unless your PC is completely and totally top-of-the-line. PC is the only gaming rig I can think of where not having good enough specs can effectively lock you out of games you may wanna play.
