That sucks.

Don't you have to wait for console games to drop in price to?

Not to mention, when a game drops on steam, it drops on the other 40 digital download services at the same time.

I am not sure of the point of that post.

No, a lot buy a core system mid range and upgrade individual components from the start. It is a good way to get in cheap, buy a OOP gaming rig new and upgrade, will save you a good 50%

I wanted titanfall but the fact it is only 6v6 pisses me off. A game like that needs to be 24player at the least imo...

Yes, TERRIBLE!

Likely it had to do with constraints on console power :/

What's stopping you from doing that with a PC? lol

It's not the same. Like someone else said.. I play mainly shooters and sports games.. You can't play shooters with a controller while you play against ppl on keyboard and mouse. And I have friends over a lot to play madden or 2k... and a console is just way more convenient

No because you can resell them. PC pros don't seem to understand this.

That's not entirely true. Titanfall isn't 6 v 6, and even if it was consoles can handle 32 v 32 games like Battlefield.

We have already seen a video criticizing pc gaming because developers focus more on consoles. Hometeam even agrees that developers treat pc as a second rate machine.

This debate was over 4 pages ago.

And most PC games start out cheaper then console games so it pretty much evens out.

Developers do treat PCs like 2nd rate for sure which really confuses me. Most games are not made like they were 15 years ago. Most games without the online play don't have much to offer it's the online play that make a game like call of duty the MASSIVE game that it is. PC has easier access to the internet you would think they would go towards that.

Well the majority also doesn't want to game on a 20 inch screen

You don't have to with PC you can hook your pc up to tv just like a console. You don't have to use a computer monitor like you would 10 years ago
