:o shock horror noooo! PC gaming is best how dare u post blasphemy on the pc games forum.

 

Well here is my simple reasoning.

PC has most powerful hardware and software for gaming. But have you noticed that there is only about 5 good games (AAA- 90% +) out in like a whole year. Thats 365 days with only 5 great games that are usually around 20 hours a pop. and then the worst part is they all get released around the same time. PC gaming isnt all that great because it has looooooong drouts without any top good games. But the thing holding it on is that when a PC gets a good game its a very good game.

 

Am i right?

No, infact you are wrong.

PC has better games than consoles because they can handle more, are easier to develop for and loads cheaper. You act like PC gaming has long summer droughts like consoles but different games in different genres get released on a weekly bases. That's all year, buddy.

Don't get me wrong, I love my PS2, DS and Wii but even I won't kid myself into thinking they are superior to the gaming machine I built from scratch.

I think it's because developers are trying to avoid pirates and therfor avoid PC. And that's why there are so few good games for PC.

Not sure of the latest statistics, but at least a while ago PC still had most +9 AND +8.5 titles out this year, at least when expansions are included. And the end of the year doesn't seem any slower. Not only that but PC has also more titles in general, from where I'm sure people can easily find their favourites.

I have to disagree with you bud, see you think that only AAA games are the best, when in fact large amount of AA and A are very well done and very enjoyable.

And there're quite a few of them out there that will keep you more then busy year after year. 

In fact you question should be directed to consoles more, as they can be proud of few good titles a year that keep the console alive, where the rest is below average.

another perspective is alot of GOOD pc games have a long lifespan such as simulations, unlike consoles certain titles that once you complete the game it is time to move on to something else. Heck I still have several games that I still play from around the year 2000....

I don't agree with you, STALKER just release and that game is big, then there is Supreme comander, and so on, the fact is that PC already has great games, and more on the way. Piracy is bad, but most times it is just a scapegoat, games still sell, and developing for PC is much cheaper and easier.

Ooooh right, I totally forgot about Stalker. I was pretty sure however that SupCom was released last year, but I guess not. Just shows how bad a memory I got.

It's all up to personal tastes really. Besides, this year we've had a fine start and the future is looking even better.

Eh...who cares which is better...both are awesome.

And at any rate, it's not like XBox 360 is slammed with AAA titles right now.  In fact, there are only a handfull of great games.  Thats why its best to enjoy both worlds.  When one is having a slow spot, simply switch over and enjoy the other.

Variety is the spice of life folks!
