E3 2018: PC Gaming Show!

I used to be a PC gamer.... I have money.... I just sold my boring ass £2000+ PC as I got fed up of console ports......bought a console to play all the games that were getting critical acclaim and all the awards and dumped the money in restarting an old hobby.

@scatteh316: Lmao!!! Sure, bud.

Without a quote I have no idea what post of mine you're referring too.

lol...

console ports....i just dont know what to say other than lol.

I dont play console games, the games themselves, what they are about, what you can do, the game play all of that you.. know...the actual game. all look extreemly boring to me.

Now give me something like Kerbal Space Program and you have my attention

@scatteh316: Most of them have made me lol. But your "I used to be a pc gamer" post really took the cake.

LOL. My specs are in my sig. If you think my PC is not capable, then you are a fool.

I've proven it more then a few times on here my friend........... It's been 3.5 years now (Facebook memory) but I used to be mega in to it and had more PC's and comments then most have games in their steam account.

Even some HWbot entries with the 12th highest clocked Phenom 2 X6 1075t in the world :D

And my 2500k that I ran at 5.5ghz 24/7

You're the fool for putting words in to my mouth... where did I say it was not a capable machine?

a so called 'PC Gamer' who primarly plays console ports is.....a moron

Well considering a vast majority of high budget games that are on PC are console ports or games held back by consoles (As was the case back then) of course people will spend a lot of time playing console ports on PC and only a moron would think otherwise.

And guess what...it's not got any better.

its still moronic, regardless of the budget.

Now if you excuse me I have some space ships to design in Space Engineers

So playing games that interested me (That happened to be console ports or games held back by console) is moronic?

What a dip shit logic to have.... So I take it you avoid all console ports then?

yes.

just buy a %^&*( CONSOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

why would you buy a PC to play console games? what the actual.....F?!

which game should I play tonight I cant decide, Kerbal, Elite Dangerous, Planet Coaster or Space Engineers?

Yes because I purely played console ports... /smh...... Indeed what in the actual F!

You are a little clueless...... and some console ports we're damn good games so why not play them? Not playing AAA games that get universal praise because they're console ports..... now that's moronic.

And none of the games you listed interest me...

Come on man. At least pay attention to what you are writing when you are trolling.

Oh I do.... I just like calling Hermits out on their bull shit claims that simply aren't true....... Your system is capable.....very capable in fact but don't go around bashing 30fps and claiming 60fps+ when you're not capable of getting that yourself in every game.

And show a little bit of acknowledgment that's it's because of the consoles that you can get 60fps+ in most games.

if you primarily play the PC for console ports I see that as being moronic. I dont care what the rating are, how much the budget is or how good you think those POS games are. If your interest is primarily console titles everyone who has any amount of experience knows its better to play those games on console then on a PC. Only the inexperienced think otherwise.

I can see why you might not have any desire to build a space ship and fly around the universe in the ship of your own design but that is why there are different games for different people.I dont want to be running around like a jack ass in 3rd person view smashing into walls and doing combo moves for the I billionth time in a game so there is that

See what happens when you make assumptions? I said I played console ports.... I never said I purely played console ports.

Had so many hours in Crysis, STALKER...loads of games........CS:Source....... I reckon I could still go on CS:Source and hold my own.....I was a boss :D

The only games that I have played with my rig that are not at least 60fps are games that suffer from consolitis and are capped at 30fps. I can get 60fps because of vastly superior hardware. The consoles are shit.

STALKER is a POS game too

just as a side note.

ok well my impression is that you had a PC mostly to play console titles.

but my understanding now is that you mostly did not play console titles on the PC but you were willing to give up the PC because of the console port part of your game experience which was smaller than the rest.

why do I find that hard to believe?

And yet graphically hold their own with PC's best /smh

And you get 60fps because your PC is being gimped by consoles......... All that money and your 1080ti will never truly reach it's potential.

Just imagine what it would do if PC had another repeat of Crysis 1...... a PC game made with no console shackles...... But on another note you would prolly stay away from it as it wouldn't run at 60fps.

Hey I loved STALKER.........

Believe what you want dude..... there's more enough forum threads and posts from me on OCUK, Techpowerup forums and others about my PC days.

Consoles are still very well holding back PC.......... And I don't want an expensive lump that'll never reach it's full potential because of console.

The last time PC was truly free from shackles of console was 2007....... and we all know what event that was.

Frodo!!!

PCs sell more games, generate more revenue, has more players.

so what the F are talking about 'holding back'?

PC is king, has been king for a few years now at least.

speaking personally I find AAA titles absolutely horrid, so there is no convincing me that I am somehow missing out of 3rd person wall tripping

1. And? Those 2 facts I wrote are not altered by this statement. 2nd place isn't bad, don't be so upset about it.

2. Divinity and Witcher 3 are not a console port. You are objectively incorrect.

Holding back?

A GTX1080ti is 11tflops......over 5x base PS4..... and yet why don't PC games look 5x better?

Because PC games still use engines that use consoles as the base....they always will.

It really isn't that difficult to understand...not the brightest are you...

PC being king is up for debate......

I do agree consoles have good graphics overall, but most console games run like shit. So, a good looking game that runs like shit is a waste.

Please explain to me how consoles relate to me playing a game like ARMA III at over 60fps.

PC gets the better version of 90% of titles according to Digital Foundry face off.

I'll take 90% over 10% (console).

=)

PC technically has 4 more 90+ games than PS4, and 107 more 80+ games than PS4 since this generation started.

In total, 110 more high scoring games this gen. In no planet is that not winning.

Call it what you want, you're a distant second place according to MC and GS - the two sites we use here.

1. Graphics really doesnt make a good game any more, that was true 10 years ago, its not really a thing anymore.

2. your statement (without context) was 'consoles are still very well holding back PC'. Now I want you read this next bit closely. PC 1. make more money 2. sell more games. 3. has more players. then the console. so making a generic broad statement as you did without providing context makes you look like you have no idea what you are talking about.

3. PC gamers are not bargin gamers, we are not looking for the blue light special at walmart

I think you'll find that if you look on MC for 2013 to present day PS4 has more games rated 90+ then PC and more exclusives that hit 90+

(I've was sad enough to actually count them)

7 of those PS4 90s are 80s on PC. I was smart enough to background check them.

PC technically has 4 more 90s.

PC has 106 more 80s.

PC has ~110 more high scoring titles than PS4 this gen. PC also has the more AAA titles this gen (budget) due to Console Exclusives.

PC plays the significantly superior version of almost all of your library.

Thanks for playing, my silver medal champion.

P.S. You were objectively wrong, two 10/10s on PC are not console ports since 2013.

"And yet the only 10/10 games it's had since 2013 are console ports.....master beggar race!!"

given that 7000 games where released by Steam in just one year (2017) I am pretty sure he did not 'actually count them')

Here we go...

What PC exclusive has scored a 10/10 on GS since 2013? PS4 has Uncharted 4.

PS4 has more 90's on MC......pure fact.

PS4 has more exclusives scoring 90+ on MC

We are halfway though 2018 and PC currently does not have a single game getting 90+ in MC

1. PC has 4 more playable 90s than PS4 at Metacritic.

2. PC has 106 more 80s than PS4 at Metacritic.

3. PC plays the significantly better version of nearly your entire library.

4. Your quote,

"And yet the only 10/10 games it's had since 2013 are console ports.....master beggar race!!"

Objectively incorrect. Witcher 3 and Divinity II are not console ports.

I'm not sure in what world having 110 more high scoring titles and the superior version of nearly all of your multiplats is not winning over said system.

Man I freakin love Rimworld, it's as close to a Fallout 'esque city builder as I can get.

Durr durrr, PC can play more 10/10 than any system.

1. No it doesn't I checked them all an hour ago.

2. I know that as my counting confirmed the same

3. It plays the multiplats that scored 80's better (Beggar race).....But the best games in the library are not available on PC

4. I stand corrected on Divinity II as it never showed on my GS search :S

So lets say it like it is......since PS4 released

- They both have the same amount of exclusives that scored 10/10 on GS

- PS4 has more 90+ rated games on MC

- PS4 has more 90+ rated exclusives on MC

- PC has more 80-89 rated games on MC

- PC does not have a single 90+ game on MC so far this year (PS4 has 2)

And PC having more games rated lower means it's in first place? Hahahahaha...... silly logic.....if that was the case Xbone would be beating PS4...

Apparently Witcher 3 and Divinity 2 are console ports....lol.

Either he doesn't know what the word "Console port" means, or he's more stupid than I thought.

Yeah no. The similarity between rimworld and simcity pretty much ends at top down and has people in it. You don't know what your talking about.

You think Witcher 3 wasn't a console port? Lmfao..... so then if that's the case please explain it's down grade....

I did this an hour ago.....

Results

Most yearly wins of highest MC score for an exclusive - PS4 wins

Most amount of 90+ rated games in MC top 20 - PS4 wins

Most amount of 80-89 rated games in MC top 20 - PC wins

So if you want to play the highest rated games with some decent ones in between pick a PS4

If you want to play loads of decent games with the odd high rated game go with PC

And I went further than just counting them,

1. PC technically has 4 more 90+ rated games on MC than PS4. 7 of those 90s on PS4 are 80s on PC - unlike you I investigate my sources. Get the hell out of here you clown, thinking I wouldn't check lmao.

2. PC has 106 more 80+ rated games on MC than PS4.

3. PC plays the far better version of a significant majority of PS4s library.

4. PC has significantly better online for too many reasons to list.

20-30 fps on low with 110[4 9s, 104 8s] less high scoring games and shitty online [no competitive gaming on Sony] doesn't sound better to me. Shit bro, that sounds like crap actually.

Welp thanks dumasses. The thread is completely derailed now.

I suggest you check the numbers again as you're wrong...... Beggar race hasn't got a 90+ on MC this year because there's been no AAA console ports released yet.....Lmfao

Soon (tm)

I'm not wrong.

7 of PS4's 90s are 80s on PC. I'll link them if you want. You are down 4 90s and 106 80s.

Your system is a distant second place. Enjoy that 30 fps on low with garbage online and a significantly worse library. I'm sure 2nd place is fun.

What a shit argument. If they didn’t “run properly” the gameplay would be impeded and they wouldn’t be 90% on Metacritic

Try harder princess

lol at people talking about metacrits for PC. Clueless.

They're still 90's and PS4 still has more.....

PS4 has more 90+ exclusives too......or you ignoring that part?

PC has no 90+ on MC this year.....you ignoring that too?

You keep your mediocre 80's and console scraps and I'll keep the higher reviewed exclusives ;)

It'll get a 90+ on MC this year as I'm sure there's a decent console port due on it soon.
