Nope

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

And play with a M/k in the family room? No way

You can also use a xbox 360 controller on PC I do it LOL

I have a pretty nice set up in my game room just bought an extra controller for my PC though not all PC games support the controller I stick to sports games and a few others and my controller works for them all The only reason I use my console is for games that don't come out for PC if Madden and the Show came out for PC I wouldn't even need a console

SOME developers do.

And only because they can make more money on console gamers. That has everything to do with the reasons why console sucks ass and is stealing your money.

So yea, your right, there is no debate. PC ftw.

Are you daft man?

It's also the reason why console gaming will never die and why console gamers will always see the blockbuster titles. For god's sake pc players had to sign a petition for the next Tom Clancy game.

I know how it feels hoping a port makes it's way to pc. It hurts.

Your next gen consoles are PC's with proprietary software.

You are PC gaming with a shitty gaming PC, that has good marketing, so you pay more for less performance. All the while they control your user experience, and make you pay more for games, because console gamers are largely children and non-tech savvy types who buy right into said marketing.

With the next gen consoles being computers, when is someone going to figure out a way to "unlock" PS4 and XBox games so that we can play them on computer?

It absolutely going to happen.

Typically emulation works like so -

Console release >> Mod community unlocks console and starts modifying >>> emulators are released.

Right now, no one has publicly started modding next gen consoles, but you can be sure lots of groups are working on it.

ESPECIALLY with the way mantle works, you will 100% see emulators soon.

The 3 best thing about PC gaming mentioned

1.Cheaper games. NBA 2k14 60$ console day 1 30$ PC day 1

2. Mods make some great improvements to games

3. free online
I don't play online much but when I do I enjoy it without having to play 1 penny for xbox live or psn.

well free outside of subscription games.

Subscription games are a dying breed.

Most of the MMO's coming out now are free with microtransactions to earn revenue.

I'm actually surprised that WoW still has subs because any time you fart in that game you have to pay Blizzard, but then I remember... LOL Activision!

It might happen but not soon. There isn't even a solid ps3 emulator.

With much better games.

You are right.

the way ps3 and 360 where built, it was much harder to make an emulator, becuase of the actual job of emulating the software to hardware interface.


It will not be the same with the new systems. THEY ARE PCS they are using the SAME EXACT HARDWARE which means that it will be much easier to emulate the environment required to run the software that is the console game itself.

Not this again.

Just watch some of this.

I feel as if I am Dawkins, and you are Wendy Wright.

Honestly, give me an exclusive pc title that is on the level of Uncharted.

Where are the sports games? Consoles have enough of the games I like. Plenty of third person shooters, fps, sports etc.. You get the best of all worlds (With the exception of mmorpg which I dont play).

What is great is the architecture of consoles is similar to pc. Now we will start to see more and more pc exclusive titles come to consoles like Dayz. Will we see the exclusive console titles come to pc?

Nope

You honestly believe that?

LOL!

Most of the PC exclusives simply wouldn't work with a controller. They've tried with shit like starcraft and it was ****ing horrible.

Other PC exclusives are MODS, good luck ever getting those on console.

Get real dude.

what do you mean architecture is similar?

its the godamn exact same! Dont you get it! They selling you shitty PC!

It's GPU heavy this gen. In the past it has been all about the CPU.

I don't play games like Starcraft. Like I said if strategy, mmorpg etc.. is your thing then pc is for you. If not, console should be your choice.

Good for you.

You think Half-Life or Counter Strike is going to make its way to console? LOL!

It's pretty cool how you can get a group of friends and play a pc game.



... oh wait.

Ya because there isn't a group posting on this very forum playing DayZ or anything...

Come to think of it.. I don't believe I've ever played with friends on a PC, ever.

Wow.

Could you be more ****ing stupid?

lolwut?

They already are.

Do you see how I respond to a post without name-calling like a child?

I think he means in person.

http://0.tqn.com/h/humor/1/H/m/M/-/-/Wat.jpg

LOL. Ever hear of a LAN party?

http://www.demandstudiossucks.com/wp...uter-nerd.jpeg

Lets pretend for a second that people still go over to friends houses to play console games and that LANs do not exist.

...

Ok. Back to reality.

I would say on average going over to a friend's house to play a console game is much more common than a lan party.

I still say the most fun I have ever had gaming is going over to a friend's house to play a sports game.

The one positive thing about PC in the sports department is people still do play Madden 08 online. I still consider ps2 madden to be 100x better than any football game made today.

It makes up for a cheap NBA 2k port.

This dude is probably a billionaire somewhere...

being more common isn't even remotely the same thing as he tried to imply that you COULDN'T do it with a PC.

Besides ... with improvements to internet speeds you don't have to be under the same roof to play with your friends (MMO,HOTSEAT,Integrated Chat)

Someone else implied it. I was just making a statement about gaming with your friends. It feels unnatural to game with others when you have a pc. If you have a console all you do is bring your controller over.

But gaming is more fun in person with friends which is kind of sad because I only have 2 other friends that play games (I am 28). PS2 madden in high school was the shit.

Hometeam do you want to play Dayz tomorrow (Monday)? What's your schedule like? We should also get the guy with the Phillip Rivers avatar and anyone else who wants to play.

Add me on steam. We can play PC games if it isn't too 'unnatural'

Consoles have moved towards being PC's over their history.

Look at the huge difference between them in the 80's and see how they have slowly moved towards becoming a dumbed-down PC today.

There is nothing wrong with it, either. They found a niche and are banking huge on it.

So you have a bunch of real life friends that you play online with? And how many of them can come over to play? Do you guys share a keyboard or something?

LMAO

It would be nice to have a poll with age, income level, and what platform is preferred.


People would lie their ass off, so it isn't worth trying.

Why would people inherently "lie their ass off"?

ROFL

The insecurity...

Yes, I play with plenty of people from real life and no, we don't go to each others house, because who the **** does that anymore? What are you 8 playing mario kart on Wii?

Yep, people are very insecure when it comes to internet boards and the truth.

ROFL

Put up the poll.

Do you not know how the internet works?

What are we going to do when everyone makes 150k+, runs a multi-million dollar company, yet still finds time to play games?

LMAO

Most people prefer console at any age, or income level. It's why console gamers out number pc players and it's not close. BTW, I'm not including facebook games or games of that nature that some sites try to include in their polls.

Most people are lazy and when someone tells them something is the best they follow like sheep.

What does that have to do with my questions? Do you get together with real life friends to play games? Hell even online do you have a bunch of real life friends playing with you? Chances are that you don't. Maybe 1 or 2, but more than likely not.

When I was young enough to play games at a friends house it was cool.

Now, successful business, kids, and family, not so much.

Yes, and yes. I play online with nearly EVERY single one of my RL friends, on a weekly basis, some nightly.

We get together and have LAN parties from time to time, especially on game launch Monday nights. Not to mention, every single weekend, and many weeknights I have a buddy who comes over and plays with me. IN PERSON EVEN.

Btw, we don't have to share the same screen. (lol!)

Do you ever know what you are talking about before you type it?

I actually am surprised, f2p seem to cost more than subscription.

Umm, not even close.

Just like NWO, people are ignorant thinking pc gaming is expensive. Take a look at just MMO sales and player base(I will leave out all the other game types). It is bigger than console games, when you add the others it dwarfs them.

The only thing you can add that is superior on consoles is all the players under 15. Of course after playing with them, I hope they stay strictly on consoles.

I have both and I would be willing to bet I have more steam games than anyone on CP. Pc gaming does get expensive, especially if you want to be able to play games at max settings.

Your right, PC gaming CAN get expensive, if you want.

Console gaming stays shitty :/

And if you want to compare steam libraries we can get it on~

Do I get to use both of my accounts?

Lol, why do you have it in for console gaming? PC needs console gaming to stay alive, unless you like indie titles.

Now PC needs console?

LOL!

http://pcper.com/images/reviews/560/slide01.jpg

lol 2008

PC has console to thank for those 263 million gamers.

If the console dies the PC dies with it and we are right back into the stone age. You heard it hear first.

Why isn't Tom Clancy's The Division a pc priority?

From a PC gamer:

In 2012, there were 32 million units of software sold globally for PC, and there was only one PC game in the top 30 – Diablo III– which came in at number 14. By comparison, the combined PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii software sales topped 331 million

hmm

Great article!!

Would you like to see the website that he got his numbers from?

http://www.vgchartz.com/yearly/2012/Global

Do you know what that site tracks? Retail.

Do you know how the majority of PC games are purchased?

Probably not. You havent had a clue this whole time.

PC gaming... it's dying. The almighty console is destroying it!!!!!

http://www.shacknews.com/article/784...illion-in-2012

There's no such thing as consoles vs. PC, don't you guys get it? The only distinction is exclusive titles mandated by game publishers and bullshit licensing. It's like saying "I like burgers" and being told your only options are a Whopper and a Big Mac.

Yeah, it is funny. Some how they are saying only 32 million, When some of the top games have member bases over 8million each?

Next thing you know, someone is going to release a poll on how consoles sell more mario games than pc's do..

Seriously, what a bunch of bleeding vaginas.

You're worse than Nintendo fanboys.

"THE WHOLE WORLD IS AGAINST US!"

Exactly.

But you'd swear to God these PC gamers thing if they eat a Whopper instead of a Big Mac, they'll die!

?




Pcs are better than consoles for fps due to mouse aiming.


Consoles are better for sports.

I have said thisn11tybillion times.

The rest is a wash.

PCs are better for A LOT of things actually.

That doesn't mean consoles are shitty.

There's a whole lot of menstrual in this thread about it, though.
