Video Games ****Official Pc vs Console thread**** - Page 14

**hometeam** · 05:32 PM

Well, with the way some threads get going in here, and not wanting to poop in other peoples threads, I figured this is a good way to pass some time.

I wouldn't be mad if a mod went through the last PC V Console posts in the next gen thread and moved them over

I'll start -

I would like to point out the above image that currently the revenue for consoles is currently higher. This is because console games, on average, are nearly twice the price of PC titles.

DISCUSS

edit: I would like to bring conversation in other threads to this thread as they appear, to avoid hijacking legit console or other media threads~

They maxmze on the cconsoles cuase thats where themoney is, then release it on PC later to make free dollars and if they pirate so what.

a couple exclusives are a big deal if them exclusives are your favorite kind of games (sports games).

The problem is the game producers, not the hardware. If people would just wise up over to the PC master race, then the developers would develop more sports game for them.

STILL rocking NBA 2k series on my PC~

if you have the cash, get them all.

I run with PC and Xbox.

Xbox for certain titles and for living room/party type gaming.

Serious gaming is still the PC though.

I'm not running through the numbers again, but console still comes out cheaper.

Inferior products are usually cheaper.

I don't see how.

Console game prices are almost always significantly higher and a PC is only a couple hundred dollars more expensive. Over 5-8 years the PC is much cheaper.

not to mention that upgrading your PC is cheaper than buying the latest console.

PC is more expensive because you can't resell your games. It becomes even much more expensive if you dont have a smaller tv or monitor for gaming.

Even with reselling, its still less expensive.

Not to mention, 95% of console games don't get resold.
