ex-Nvidia: nearly every game ships broken on PC

TBH, I haven't played Watch Dogs, I just thought the situation was about gimped graphical settings. I had no idea it had many problems running.

I may pick it up on a sale at some point though. Just didn't look very interesting to me. The driving part doesn't look that fun either.

@ronvalencia: the game runs fine but the game released with some if its biggest features absolutely broken. The missions don't even work right with some of the more dangerous ships you face against has broken ai. Worse release I have seen in along time.

LOL I see PC gamers bragging about how much less it cost to game on PC than consoles...who really is the peasant?

you, trying to justify your $400 crap hardware.

Carry on peasant.

Paying more for less is not a way to become rich.

Just saying.

@LJS9502_basic: True, but herms get to play a verson that:

- has settings options to customize their experience, wheter with frame rates, resolution or graphical settings

- can use any controlling input they wish

- can the hell out of the game, depending on support from devs or community.

Console gamers simply pay more for less features and options

Peasant? I'm a gamer....I buy multiple platforms to game on...including PC. You have just the PC which makes you more of a peasant than I am. LOL

Paying less isn't going to get you rich either. And those with less money choose to game on less expensive platforms anyway.

yeah i have "just a pc" next to the ps4 and wii u and the xbone i sold. Whatever you say my dear peasant, sure. You have all platforms but act bitter when told the truth about pc, we believe you.

Eh. If the game is made correctly for the console then customization isn't necessary. There is a difference between the two types of gamers. Neither is the correct type to be. It's about preference. I'm just saying you can't call someone a peasant who spends more than you do. What does that make you?

We believe you my dear peasant, we believe you, you choose the incredibly inferior versions and hardware because it is a choice, we believe you.

No, no, we know, "it is a choice". LOL peasants.

Bitter? I haven't said anything against the PC...just the hypocrites that brag about spending less but then turn around and call those who spend more a peasant. Don't get your panties in a twist.

Sure it isn't. I guess when i want to play an FPS at 60fps with a keyboard and mouse the way it was meant to, i won't need customization.

Ofcourse, preference is understandable.

But when the pc guy can play the game the say exact same way the console guy can, while still having more options and paying less for the product (the game itself) then you can start with the peasant talk

I'm not talking about paying less, i'm talking about getting your money's worth.

Efficient use of money will, in fact, make you rich.

A gaming PC is not just a gaming PC, it's a swiss army knife electronic device that excells at everything you throw at it.

It would not be unreasonable to pay premium for such a bargain, but nowadays you can get one for a price of a current-gen console and some change.

If that's not a massive bang for the buck, i don't know what is.

I'm afraid many of those 20 also had issues at launch. But I don't think it's realistic to expect a fully functional game on such a rapidly expanding platform.

Versatility is what makes the PC great, and in fact it's even in the name: Personal Computer. Beyond that even there are many aspects of PC gaming that can't, or won't, be discussed here like emu(which ironically is tolerated on gaf), mods, game development, and arguing on system wars even is way better on PC than consoles.

Sure there was a time I was content to stick with Wii60 combo, fry on cid, and wander in the woods. At some point you have to wake up and see how far ahead of consoles the PC is. You can't even play a RTS on consoles. How is that acceptable to people?

Yeah I'd imagine most people have a PC now so what's your point? You think people with consoles DON'T have PCs? Because that would just be a stupid assumption.

Them having a PC that can be turned into a Gaming PC, that will run circles around current-gen consoles, for a fraction of cost of any of said consoles, is not really an argument in favor of consoles.

Well considering how the BAD PORT runs way better on a 120$ gpu than on your amazing NEXT GEN consoles, i dont see what the big deal is about.

Also pc had the most and the highest rated exlusives in 2014, cant see how a wiiu is good enough for its few games, seriously you miss out 90% games on the market.

I dont know how to tell you this but just like you dont have to play with kids on xbl that had sex with your mom, you dont have to play with racist russians in dota.

Uhm... this guy is tlaking about the Vista age, devs trying their hands on Vista + DX10 for the first time...

Lol, consolites reading comprehension fail.

Maybe, but the days of console games being thoroughly tested with all of the features are gone also. Launch day is launch day no matter what.

How come you're still posting after you lost our bet, for shame sir, for shame.

OP sounds like a whiner. Sure there are issues occasionally, but let's not blow this stupidly out of proportion. My PC chews through all games almost like it's nothing. I still pick PC first, every single time.

Such a struggle living with superior everything when it comes to gaming.

What's with you and the PC hate?

I have to say....I'm not surprised.

Then again....if you have a beefy enough system...it doesn't matter.

I've found that most the games I play on PC work "ok" at least. It's the ones that don't work....that REALLY don't work....and that shit pisses anyone off.

So you are putting your account on the line? Either do so or stop pretending liar.

Early onset alzheimer's is an issue for you?, have you forgotten the last posts we made already...

I've already accepted an added my conditions to the bet, you even replied to that post...

Then I shall take some pictures and enjoy SW without you here. Nonetheless...the bet is that I have a gaming PC and when I post pics...YOU disappear for six months. No alts.

A gaming PC that is within the limits i set. If it isn't you leave for a year.

Pretty much never.

No. I don't give a damn about your made up ideas that you are hiding behind. The bet I made with you was due to YOU saying I didn't have a gaming PC. That is ALL I have to prove. You are afraid aren't you.

@roulettethedog: I'm a PC gamer and a console gamer. Can't stand the PC blowhards like you, man I hate PC gamers. Scummy fuckwits that are too dumb to differentiate opinion from reality. PC is not objectively better, it's a fucking opinion you losers.

This thread was made by someone who attacked PC first....and you expected no PC gamer to come in and defend it with factual evidence?

Fucking idiot.

He's a Sony fanboy, they hate on anything superior than their precious Playstation4.

Clearly i'm not the one that's scared, and honestly if you had a gaming PC you would've shown it by now, so yeah you're nothing but a bold faced liar and you've proven that fact in these exchanges.

So to recap, I've accepted your bet 3 times now and you've failed to prove you own a gaming PC 3 times.

I'm done with your childish, chicken shit behavior you big fat liar.

Look, the new trend is games shipping broken on everything but Nintendo platforms. Right now Nintendo's first party are the only games that can be purchased day 1 and actually be played as should be. I had to wait about a week for DOA5 LR on X1 to be compatible with my arcade stick, I had to turn off throwdowns (luckily I always did in past games, but still). I never beat AC: Unity on PS4 because of its issues.

The only games I have pre-ordered right now are Final Fantasy Type Zero, The Witcher 3 and Mario Party 10. Square Enix rarely ships a broken game and all have been very playable day one. CD Project red delayed the game to fix bugs (I know it will probably receive a patch or 2 fixing some things or improve performance like TW2 did, but it should be entirely playable and not broken, just hoping it supports SLI out of the gate) and of course Nintendo you can still count on.

But I do admit, most companies have an issue with SLI on release and take weeks to fix it. I don't understand how this slips under Q/A testing. It would seem SLI and Crossfire would be something companies would make sure to test for.

Oh I'll post pictures. And then you have to leave.

Too late, your friends PC will not suffice, nor will your integrated Intel graphics Compaq PC count, you've proven you're entirely untrustworthy therefore anything you post will be ignored.

That said, i'll make sure to call you out on your lies at every opportunity.

will one of you hurry up and finish this? the anticipation is killing me

I like to keep my audiences rivetted. :P

But sadly it's finished, i've accepted all his shit and he's lied and evaded everytime, anything he shows from here on is a fabrication, clearly the entire bet thing was a bluff intended only to shut me up so he could hide the fact that he has lied about owning a gaming PC on these forums for ages.

Running scared dude?

are you asking yourself?

His web of lies have confused even him.

I bet he's scrambling to find someone with a gaming PC to take pictures of. Watch him go to Walmart or Staples and take pics of a Dell haha.

Bye bye snugenz

It's sitting right to the left of me dude. Like I said...I built a budget gaming pc last year. Now let's see if snugenz has any integrity.

Surprise, surprise. Drag and dropped into Google just to see if you were bullshitting, but didn't find any dups.. hmmm.

Well now I'm just curious. Why did you take so long to do this?

Because it's all lies, i accepted his bet weeks ago, and it's taken him this long to come up with pics, 100% sure they're not his.
