Well, Frazod did mention he was about to start working on his stealth, so maybe that's him.

idiot console fanboys? or maybe it's people who don't budget $1000 per year to upgrade or replace broken PC garbage.

You enjoy your sweet 2.1 setup while I'm rocking the 5.1 home theater with a 12" sub. The positional audio and environmental effects in this game are amazing. The acoustics change depending on the type of environment you're in. Stereo just doesn't do it justice.

Although I probably will end up picking up a PC copy once the price drops just to experience the mods.

I found a stray dog yesterday and adopted him, now he follows me everywhere. So now I've got two companions!

LMAO

Like you can't get a 5.1 setup for a computer.

I'd rather play with headphones anyway so I can hear precisely what's sneaking up on me.

umm ... the speed of the PC vs Console is completely the same. If one gets outdated then so does the other. The only reason you don't upgrade the console more frequently is because you can't.

people just update their computer because they WANT to and usually enjoy doing that kind of stuff.

Consoles only have 2 benefits over a PC

1. As a marketing tool, some games are released early or only for a certain console. (good luck buying a Wii/PS3/Xbox to cover all bases)

2. ease of use ... consoles are basically plug-n-play, which is good for people who aren't tech savvy.

There is nothing else that you can do on a console that can't be done AT LEAST as well on a PC.

fanboy battle commence!! :)

I just never understood why PC gamers think console gamers are the debil. I've done both and have had a much better time on consoles.

Because the rise of consoles watered down the industry and made it cater to the lowest common denominator.

I enjoy both PC and console. Saying either one sucks is just dumb. Saying that you have to replace "broken PC garbage" every year is ****ing reeruned.

Main reason I will never buy a console is all the horror stories of red rings of death.

If something goes wrong with my PC - which is rare - at least I know how to diagnose and fix the issue.

Console gaming has hurt pc gaming in terms of development. And even now when many companies are doing multiple platform games (like this one), you're seeing an increasing degree of streamlining due to the limitations that consoles bring. Even with a company like BioWare, who is by far my favorite game developer, you saw that kind of thing with Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age 2. Basically, there aren't many companies designing purely for pc anymore, so there aren't as many games that take advantage of the keyboard and mouse setup. So that's probably why some segment of the (admittedly smaller...) pc gaming market doesn't like console gaming. Plus console games are generally (much) shorter than PC games have been traditionally, so the more streamlining and "consolification" you see in the multi-platform gaming market, the shorter the games get, which is something that we pc gamers tend to lament. Especially with RPGs. The days of 300-hour scripted story-driven games are basically over.

You realize that these evil, nasty consoles are just computers?? It's nothing to repair these things or even mod them.
If you're honestly PC exclusive and stand firm on it, then you're missing out and have missed out on a lot of games over the years.
And if you follow Skyrim on PC outside of this little sub thread you've created here at the Planet, you'd know that a TON of people prefer to play this with the easily compatible 360 controller.
I play games on 360/PS3/PC and very rarely iOS, so I'm not exclusive to any system...

The few disgruntled PC-gamer posters that we have here are becoming constant and annoying.

It doesn't matter what they are, only what people do with them.

I'm PC exclusive because I don't play that many games. When I do, it's a game like Oblivion or Skyrim, which are best on the PC. And I have 0 interest in multiplayer games.

Single-player experience used to be king in gaming. Now we're lucky if we get a Deux Ex or a Skyrim every few years.

I'm not complaining about it myself, I was just answering Bump's question about why some PC gamers act the way they do. That's the general "logic" behind it.

Speaking just for me, I don't have a problem with consoles, and the only reason I don't have one is that I can't afford one. Whereas I have to have a computer for my job (and can also generally charge upgrades to work...).

But I'd love to be able to play stuff like the Uncharted games, though, if I could. And I've played plenty of cross-platform games. The Dead Space games are two of my favorite games of the last five years, despite the fact that they're only about 10 hours long each. And then, obviously, Mass Effect (which was actually a port from 360 to PC) and ME2.

But the reality is that consoles have had a major impact on pc gaming, and that's where the resentment comes from. But that's only console gamers fault in the sense that there's more of them; ufortunately for PC gamers they're/we're mostly a niche market at this point.

I'm just glad that companies are willing to multi-platform and include us in the equation. Because there's been concern for years that PC gaming was going to die (microsoft itself has worked hard against that...).

At least I still have MMOs. Mostly. I know DCUO has mixed in PS3s. I was afraid for a while that SWTOR would do that, and I'm glad that they did not.

It's not a niche market, and the misinformation and grandstanding by console fanboys is another reason we hate them and their stupid consoles.
