This is a thread to rub it in to console gamers,with how better PC gaming was and is compared to the consoles!

Its really dumb that console only gamers are talking smack about PC like its dooomed ,has no games,comments like i like playing from the cauch more, there is an infinite number of controlers avabile for the Pc consolites including the ones from Ps3,Wii,x360,and the most annoying the price issue,in reality PCs are the best buys of electronics as they have so many uses in so many different fields,they are currently best multymedia hubs availible! ;)

So lets celebrate generations of gaming under PC dominance,and annoy some people at the same time muahahahahahahahhahahahah :twisted:

ill start with 1995 when i started using my PC for gaming and a little game called Duke Nukem 3d(shareware version)which made me completely forget about SNES

Then cam a game that was just so addicting it coused me to miss ****s and ****s LoL

If ur up to it people contine with me on this trip down memory lane and maybe we even educate some of the SW population :)

People preffer consoles over Pc's and PC's over consoles for their own reasons.For some people the best gfx or games library doesnt matter as much as ease of use.PC gaming and console gaming are 2 radically different things which can not be compared easily and when people realize that system wars will be a better place

Its system wars. People boast about systems and rub it in eachothers faces here. This is no surprise. Personally I think deciding to bar out other systems, simply denies you experiences that cannot be had elsewhere.

I agree with you on some fronts, but when I started PC gaming I was playing the likes of Loom, Wolfenstien 3D, Commander Keen and ATP.... But I was always desperate to play Sonic or Mario, Streets of Rage of SF2, when I went round to my friends house's since they all either a Nes, SNES, Master System or Mega Drive... In other words some genres are done better on PC than they are on console and some are not. But Amstrad did build a PC with a Sega Mega Drive called the Amstrad Mega PC .......... http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/comfychair/pcgames/megapc.htm awful Spec PC for what u payed...

OMG you are boring don't you have anything better to do than write this garbage ..... please for your own sake ...........GET OUT MORE ! what a boring post Bluffdemon
....boredom is relative,and oh no my post is not what you are used too maybe if i posted how killzone 2 ownes and its the best thing ever or something like x360 rrod on me its sucks or maybe something like xxx game has best graphics ever it would have been more acceptable too you! But since i dont care what a silly little troll like you thinks,i wont give this any more thought! Btw i made this topic to have some fun with console fans and to get them all railed up with a reality check about how much their bickering is pointless when u look at it without fanboy googles! Btw i also like console gaming alot but its nothing compared to pcs

Good for you. PC gaming was actually the last thing on my mind during the time I had the SNES. Go figure.

your post just made me laugh because it is quirky and random.

TC, 'So lets celebrate generations of gaming under PC dominance'
dominance of what?? :)

if you're talking about graphics, consoles too had their period of dominance in the graphics department.
like when the n64, dreamcast, ps2/xbox/gamecube, ps3&360 were released

No not just graphics overall quality of games and their growth and evolution through gens as PCs are the best showcase for that

oh right on, we ot games like SFII, Mario, Final fantasy and not to mention other stuff from the Megadrive. To be honest, i didn't even know the existence of gaming on PC. Thought there were only Sim City, Sim Ant, Sim Tower, Mine Sweeper etc.

God I loved Warcraft 2. It was God. What about Quake Team Fortress, Doom(1+2), Descent, etc. Ooh, and other things like the CRPGs and Loom and Secret of Monkey Island :o Oh, and Diablo. :) And then the newer CRPGs like Planescape. >_>

Why do PC gamers need to comfort themselves that PC gaming isn't dying? It isn't and probably never will! I got my 1st gaming PC ever a few weeks ago and there is no way it will die now! :P

This kind of topic are like self-pitty and in this case it isn't needed.

Naval those are some of the best games on the PC.... Never seen the top one is that Kings Quest? You should of added Syndicate, Cannon Fodder, X-Wing or Tie Fighter or any other Lucasart title, Dune, Eye of the Beholder, If you do get posters saying "never heard of it" or "nobody cares"..... we can put it to bed that they are fanboys or didn't start gaming till 3 years ago

Sure the PC has had some amazing games, plenty of them to be honest. Plenty of absolutely amazing games and has been pushing the video game industry forward for years, but the momentum has dropped rapidly this generation and looking at what games that sells or the "highest ranked PC games" there are few to no surprise games at all.

Give them a compliment--- then take it away! Formulaic, contradictive and a horrible spin.

Get over yourself, online gaming is what is pushing the console industry now and it took over 8 years to really get anywhere close to what the gaming world is like on PCs.

Giving who a compliment? And online play or graphics isn't the reason console gaming kicked off.

you do realise that in 1995 the saturn and playstation were out wihch completely kicked the crap outta PC's until Voodoo 1/Voodoo 2 came out and was taken advantage of right?

Actually that same game you mentioned was ported to the saturn, using a re-worked powerslave engine, and actually had better lighting (using real dynamic light points). Sprites weren't quite as detailed due to memory though, but you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference.

Just a note, I'm not disputing PC's hardware power...just that point in time. :P

Graphics alone don't make for a great game. Remember Dragons Lair? I was blown away with how that game looked, but it sucked hard.
