[QUOTE="mrmusicman247"]So why are PC gamers complaining about consolization again? Mograine

What has that to do with anything?

Well PC gamers have been complaining how some games have consolized. However this portion is only a snippet of the amount of games that remains untouched by consoles.

So what?

Are you implying the effects of consolization are negligible?

Then I assume you have something to back that up.

Going by the impact their predecessors had Crysis 2, Dragon Age 2 or Unreal Tournament 3 are not "negligible" games.

I'm not saying those games aren't huge. But I'm saying is PC gamers have so many mid-size games that they are negligible.

its NOTHING like fallout.. fallout is like stalker for kids. there is some really bizarro things in stalker its more like an open world sci-fo horror nightmare filled with religious fanatics, mutants animals and mutated people.. and of course the living dead.

its also got weather thatd probably send you running for the hills.

stalker is far more complicated and far more adult than fallout. if a bit sexist..

Well you better run for cover with some of the weather. Pretty much everything in that game can kill you and very quickly at that. Fallout and Metro are easy versions of Stalker.

Stlaker and Metro are incredibly alike. Seriously, there is a section in COP that is exactly the same as in Metro, or rather the other way around. Same sounds same kind of area. Metro really is just a linear version of Stalker.

That's my point, Metro is so linear that it's really nothing like Stalker. Yeah, the setting is very similar but the gameplay is very different.

Yeah, I've played Stalker at 20fps on my laptop and Metro on 360.... They are not alike. One is an open world FPS, the other is a linear shooter.

Emulators. They are legal if you own the game. This is why I love PC gaming. This is not one thing you can do on a console that you cannot do on a PC and there are plenty of things I can do on my PC that you cannot do on a console.

I don't understand this whole PC/console debate. I've been a console gamer for decades and I've had some interest inwhat's offered on the PC. I prefer console gaming over PC gaming, but one can always own both and enjoy both. I think that's easy enough.

Most of them run perfectly.

Doesn't matter tho, PC actually has more aaa/aa exclusive games each gen. So pc has better quality and more fun games in reality.

1. Sensationalist title, bound to get traffic. 2. List broken onto seperate pages with a measly paragraph for descriptions. 3. Descriptions themselves say nothing about the game other than 'X is not on a console', and are poorly written. 4. Second Life 5. Another cheap numbered poll with the intention of generating fanboy babbling traffic then actually recommending games. What good has come of this? Gemini Rue was given a nod, and I was reminded that I should really play some more Sins of a Solar Empire.

Nope it's impossible to swingsoftware made by users and the freedoms of an open platform as a negative in any sense.

You obviously don't have experience with them. PS1 games actually work better on PC than they do on PS1. You can put the resolution you want, crank up the filters and save at any time.
