Can anybody tell me the reason why "every year is the year of the PC"

I don't get it :?

Hermits said every year is the year of PC

but when you look at it, it just impossible...

First of all

in 2006 the GOTY is Gears of War but at that time it haven't released on PC

in 2007 SMG is GOTY and its unplayable on PC

in 2008 MGS 4 is GOTY and again ts unplayable on PC, GTA IV score 10 on PS3 and 360 but only 9.0 on PC

in 2009 Demons Soul is GOTY and again its unplayable on PC, on this year PC only had 1 AAAE while PS3 had 4 AAAE

in 2010 Red Dead Redemption is GOTY and it unplayable on PC again, you got Starcraft 2 but you didn't get RDR and SMG 2

in 2011..... So far PC only had 1 AAAE tie with PS3, PSP, and NDS but lose with PS3 in terms of AAE, and with so many exclusive games on PS3 I dont think PC will defeat PS3

So, how can hermits say "every year is teh year of PC":??

Most high scoring exclusives every year? :?GeneralShowzer

Notice how in your argument you use every console against the PC to make a point? Yeah.

Now if you look at all the systems individually then you should start to get a pretty good idea of why some people might think that, also maybe look outside of just the GOTY.

Well, it's because they have the best graphics, even though that isn't true for all PC gamers, just the one's who spend three hundred dollars a year on hardware.

They have the most exclusives, though most are amature games not really worth a person's time. (And, by this logic the 360 would come very near in exclusives with the advent of indie games)

And you can do the most things on them, because they're not really gaming platforms at all. But just a platform that you can also game on (and yet somehow peole who game on their iPhones and iPads can't be considered real gamers, even though it's the exact same principal).

So, there you go. The incontrovertable proof that every year is the year of the PC :D

Best Graphics, Best online service, Best multiplats. You sure you have Dark Souls whoopdey friggin do, Guild Wars 2 is going to crush it.Birdy09

Not to mention more exclusive each year. 2011 alone we have over 90 exclusive games.

OMG thats so many!! But then again, I dont think I have all money and time and power to play all of those.....ihsanqueen

Yeah, neither would i, i guess. I have enough to play, plus tons of games on my consoles i have to finish.

Though still, having more freedom and diversity to choose from is pretty cool.

[QUOTE="Birdy09"][QUOTE="ihsanqueen"] What? In 2008 MGS 4 scored 10, 2009 Uncharted 2 scored 9.5 and in 2010 SMG 2 scored 10 and none of them playable on PCihsanqueen

There were 13 AA exclusives for the PC in 2009. and yes, there were 4 AAA PS3 exclusives in 2009, but that alone accounts for half of the total PS3 AAA exclusives this generation.

It's clear you can't play all of the best games and only own a PC (which some PC owners seem to believe).KC_Hokie

You can say that for any platform. Actually if you pick only one console you miss on much more.

So? I would take Crysis over SMG in HEART BEAT. I would take Crysis Warhead over MGS4 in a HEART BEAT.

And you are operating under the assumption that everybody has Wii, Xbox 360, PS3. Well guess what? Not everyone does. You are comparing 3 systems VS 1, different games come on different systems.

Apparently not all of them....as PC has the most AAA-AA exclusives (by a large%) and best version of 90% of multiplats.

"Seem to" is irrelevant.

The fact that PC has the highest number of exclusives blows into bits the assumptions you got from your limited sight.

That's only proof that snob critics are console biased

None of them GOTY.....ihsanqueen

Who the frak cares what some snob critics think is THEIR GOTY?

It's just personal opinion, and I only care for mine.

Critics are people, just like you and me, and they all have their opinions. So while let's you think RDR is GOTY 2010, I disagree and say it's ME2

A clear cut example of this is the gamespot 2005 GOTY, so many PC titles that just stomped the competition and are still being played to this day but RE4 won.

in 2007 Crysis 9.5, its unplayable on the consoles

in 2008 Crysis Warhead 9.0, it's unplayable on the consoles

Hermits said every year is the year of PC

but when you look at it, it just impossible...

First of all

in 2006 the GOTY is Gears of War but at that time it haven't released on PC Gears was not even close to being the best game released in 2006, and it's available on the PC.

in 2007 SMG is GOTY and its unplayable on PC lol

in 2008 MGS 4 is GOTY and again ts unplayable on PC, GTA IV score 10 on PS3 and 360 but only 9.0 on PC

GTA4 was a bad port but it's still the best on the PC (also graphics mods)

and MGS4 was a letdown after MGS3.

in 2009 Demons Soul is GOTY and again its unplayable on PC, on this year PC only had 1 AAAE while PS3 had 4 AAAE

Demon's Souls was my favorite game of '09, but Demon's Souls is also unplayable on the 360 and Wii

in 2010 Red Dead Redemption is GOTY and it unplayable on PC again, you got Starcraft 2 but you didn't get RDR and SMG 2

Yeah, it's true the PC doesn't have Red Dead

in 2011..... So far PC only had 1 AAAE tie with PS3, PSP, and NDS but lose with PS3 in terms of AAE, and with so many exclusive games on PS3 I dont think PC will defeat PS3

The PC easily has the best lineup for this year

So, how can hermits say "every year is teh year of PC":??

ihsanqueen

The PC always has the largest variety of games to play every year and a larger amount of good games, but it's true it doesn't always have the best title that releases within a year. In 2009 I felt the PS3 had the best year but every other year this gen I feel the PC won.
