Console gaming rules, why are PC fanboys hating on it?

[QUOTE="UCF_Knight"][QUOTE="GD1551"]As I said, you realize this could apply to almost anyone with a high end rig right now.. right?UCF_Knight

My buddy played witcher 2 on a dell laptop with a 540m.. please don't go there. You don't need a high end PC to play those games.

[QUOTE="UCF_Knight"][QUOTE="UCF_Knight"] Um, no. Most PC gamers I know have at least 50-60 games from Steam sales alone.GD1551

[QUOTE="UCF_Knight"] And if you're referring to most games not needing a higher end PC, you're still wrong. A lot of us are playing Far Cry 3, Battlefield 3, Skyrim with mods, the Crysis series, The Witcher 2, etc. There are plenty of high quality games that require high end PCs to be maxed out.lawlessx

I have, I even gave witcher 2 a pretty high score because its a pretty good game.

[QUOTE="UCF_Knight"][QUOTE="GD1551"]So it's not very farfetched that I'd buy a new PC for a couple games.GD1551

Ugh yeah? I mean how many PC games take advantage of expensive PCs?

EDIT: Poor sentence construction.

To play them well? Yes. My GTX 670 doesn't max TW2 out. If you're going with this angle, you could have ran Rome 2 with a GTX 200 series. Any other angles that defeat your own point?UCF_Knight

You can barely run empire with that, why would I expect Rome to run properly on it? Plus I want to see Rome in all its glory with all the details and running smoothly, unlike FC3 and those other games where you are dishing out extra money to put on x16 AA @ 1080p (which isn't even necessary) and the only reason your 670 doesn't max TW2 is because of ubersampling, which is just stupid and doesn't make the game look noticeably better.

Because it's system wars. You're very good at it too, look how many posts your thread got!

I agree. If I thought PC gaming was overrated and I was better of with a console, I'd consider the money spent on the PC as sunk cost. I'd cut my losses and not spend another dime on it.

I also remember him wanting a quiet PC which was the main reason for him wanting a new video card. If I really wanted a quiet PC and not game on it, I would've just take out the video card and used the Intel graphics.

Its like, with a PC, I can hook it into a big 50+ inch HD TV, with surround sound, and lay back in my cushioned gaming chair with a comfortable, easy to handle controller that fits in my hands perfectly...............

not really understanding your sarcasm..sorry..what I said is fact though. No matter how much hate people like me get. Sure I play pc games "some"..but every time its 20min or a week getting things to work..PC has more bugs when it comes to gaming then a slumhouse in new york..sorry..truth man..

yes pc gamers will tell you otherwise, its easier, its more portable, its more streamlined, ease of use, console gaming is bigger than PC gaming, but pc gamers wont tell you that either, so really cant even argue that cant even accept facts.Mr720fan

I'm sure it ends with lols, and him thinking controller is "smoother" (even though its factually not), not seeing the difference between 15 and 60 fps (use daddies cash on laser surgery you buffoon), and wanting to go back to his PressAToWin games.

Because if you are a console gamer you cant list a paragraph of all the PC parts used to build something that does the same thing as a XBOX 360 or PS3 for the most part in your sig!! I always love how the hermits always resort to "you know you can build a gaming PC for $400"!! Yet, when you look at the rig in their sig, it is probably 8x that price!!ShoTTyMcNaDeS

This thread went exactly the same way as the last 1000 "PC vs Console" threads we get every week.

All entirely possible with a PC aswell. And KB/M is better for alot of genres than a Gamepad.

If you had to do that, your TV is some weird resolution. End of story. You know what it takes for me play games from my laptop on my TV, using a controller? I plug the laptop into the TV with an HDMI cord. I plug my xbox controller into the laptop via USB. I double click a game icon from steam. Done.

Things have changed since the 90s. Get with the times.

If PS4 isn't 1080p 60FPS I am jumping to PC as my main gaming unit. We all know Microsoft is on some casual garbage.

No difference at all. PC and consoles both play video games unless its called or does something other than playing video games. Real-life perhaps? You get it?

i'm sorry must be sad to have a 10 year old pc then wanting a new one and not being able to have one proceed to bash it to feel good about it.

I change my v card or my pc once every 2-3 years, since hdmi arrived like 10 years ago i've never had to "dig" any options unless i wanted an advance feature like dual monitors or something like that. If you just want your pc on tv is plug and play. And the fuking lazyness of some people to use their brain is what has society in the pathetic state it is. You'd rather have a blurry mess with lower graphics and jaggies everywhere because its too fuking hard for your tiny brain to look an option, disgusting. Thats why people like you never go out of their parents basement, go back to your mcdonalds job you dont have to think there.

If you only play console games you lost

If you only play pc games you lost

If you play pc and console games YOU WON

It's crazy we have pretty damn good technology now but by the time we had that technology all the gameplay had already been done so it's boring because the gameplay's the same as decades ago but the level designs and missions are even easier and crappier

hey i used this site since 1996 me clicking on it all the time earned this site money so why dont u f*ck off little kid

They both have their ups and downs and I'm glad I have both. I do hook up my PC to my TV and use a controler though so that argument fails. One thing everyone always seems to ignore is how, PS3 games at least, tend to have better sound. It's infurating how so many PC games have terrible surround sound support and even though hooking up a PC to an HDTV is simple getting it to work with a Home theater surround sound system is terrible.

I enjoy both PC & Console gaming and dont care which one is better !!!

Really? That's a shame. I've recently ordered a converter box which is supposed to be able to convert HDMI sound to digital optical. I'd need something like that if I want to connect my PC to my surround speakers, since the receiver doesn't have HDMI in.

I'm hoping for the best, but it sounds like I may be sticking with consoles for most multiplats next gen too. I've got headphones to simulate surround sound. It's pretty good sound quality, but not as good as my speakers. The sound through them from the PS3 games is so good.

What happened to first level and a whole game having secret area's?

LOL duke 3d's first level has 8 secrets and a whole game nowdays probley 1 or 2 out of the whole game if your lucky.

Elementary school must have been very difficult for you, huh?

Yes, PC gaming can take a little bit of time to get settings right. If you don't have a few hours to set aside to build the PC, and then 2 minutes before the first time you play a game, then you are very busy and clearly your time is too precious. The gaming experience offered by PCs with nice hardware is just so good. If it wasn't, then I would get the simpler console version, but PCs look and run better, as well as offer mods, as well as offer more genres, as well as offer mouse/keyboard support, as well as have Steam sales, as well as have dedicated servers, as well as... I'll just stop there. PC gaming is better, for a tad bit of effort.

It's infurating how so many PC games have terrible surround sound support and even though hooking up a PC to an HDTV is simple getting it to work with a Home theater surround sound system is terrible.

Plugging in speakers is hard now?

I've used surround sound with my old desktop, and my laptop. Takes about 3 seconds to set up. I take the audio cables from my surround speakers... and I plug them into the sound ports on the PC/laptop... and I have surround sound. Worst case scenario, I have to right click the volume icon, go to "playback devices", and make sure the HDMI isn't being used as default. As for the games, themselves. Yeah, some don't have good surround support. Not really a big deal. Just about anything remotely recent does have it, and setting it up requires nothing more than 2 mouse clicks to get to audio options, then 2-3 mouse clicks to scroll some slider over from "2 speakers" to "5.1 surround".

Again, things have changed since the 90s.

With PC, you get a tiny monitor screen, mundane sound, while all hunched over, with an awkward keyboard that is too difficult to handle and has sooo many buttons that have no actual use, it gets confusing. Only +? technically proficient graphics. All these PC fanboys be like "PC got better than sh!t console"..... ya, and? I prefer my consoles. Consoles are where my heart in gaming is. Without consoles, my game life would be non-existent. I have done PC gaming before.... sucked. Just too awkward, I just cant get over that keyboard. Uggg.Kevlar101

Are consolites really this stupid? Do consolites not realise the PC has THE MOST OPTIONS of displays, controllers, peripherals and software of all?

Get a clue a PC can hook up to far more dveices than your puny console can.
