Fact number 1

Fact Number 2
Xbox 360 is 400 dollars.. yet will be able to run games like UT3 and look great..
You could never ever run UT3 on a 400 dollar pc..

Fact Number 3
99.9% of you guys will not be able to run crysis, UT3 or any Dx10 game on full settings..

It's not Crysis, but if you think that looks like crap, you're crazy. My rig minus monitor and OS can be built for $400, easily. A lot of things are possible through overclocking. 4 figure rig? No way.

Fact number 1

Fabrication, not fact. You can make a good gaming rig for less than one grand.

Fact Number 2
Xbox 360 is 400 dollars.. yet will be able to run games like UT3 and look great..
You could never ever run UT3 on a 400 dollar pc..

You already have a PC. The amount of money that it costs to upgrade to where it looks and plays well is far less than you make it out to be.

Fact Number 3
99.9% of you guys will not be able to run crysis, UT3 or any Dx10 game on full settings..
So stop saying how the pc version will "look and run " better when it doesn't matter cause most people won't run the game on full settings.

Everyone said the exact same thing about Half-Life 2.

Indeed. Let this thread die, no one bother posting after me.

Edit: All the "facts" have been proven wrong already by several posters here, no need to continue feeding the troll.

Full setting? Well, seeing as Rein said UT3 was being designed to not max out on modern PCs, I really can't say we have a definitive fix on the recommended system requirements.

As for Crysis, again, we don't have recommended system requirements, but Crytek have said that it will be able to run on 2-3 year old PCs.

As for $4000 (yeah right), here's a $1000 PC that will run those games great, sans the Dx10 card (which certainly doesn't bring the tally up to $4000.

Ahhh, the sheer hypocrisy of it all. Yes, you can buy a $400 360 and play great looking games. Your of course forgetting, the HDTV. This is required if you expect your console to fully make use of the software, and can easily go far in excess of that $1000 rig I posted.

See, that's a fact console fans often like to leave out.

Fact Number 3
99.9% of you guys will not be able to run crysis, UT3 or any Dx10 game on full settings..

Huxley_01


Not until they get Dx10 cards at least. And it doesn't matter to me what most people are capable of. I have a great PC, and I can run these games better than a console can. I'm not some crusader struggling for egalitarianism, I'm a gamer looking for the best experience, and my PC gives me that.

And 75% of American households don't have HDTVs. So it doesn't matter how great a console game can look, because most people can't run it in HD.

Fact number 1
you're going to need a 4 thousand dollar pc to be able to run games like crysis and UT3 on full settings.

Or you could wait a few months and build a $1000 PC that could run them at moderately high settings.

Fact Number 2
Xbox 360 is 400 dollars.. yet will be able to run games like UT3 and look great..
You could never ever run UT3 on a 400 dollar pc..

Yeah, well you can't really surf the web, write reports or do that sort of stuff on a $400 either.

Fact 1: BS
Fact 2: True...but who said otherwise? The Unreal Engine 3 runs optimally on the 360.
Fact 3: Upgrading is not as "totally unplausible" as you claim. DX10 card have had a rather large price decrase and by the time those games come out, they'll be much more available.
I normally defend the consoles with great vehemence, but you don't have a case insulting the PC with arguments like those.

BTW, to be fair, you should add the shipping charges for all those items. It could add up to ~$50. Not that much but still...

I was being sarcastic... didn't you notice the "teh" and the "black market" and "ebay"? And the fact that I ignored everything else besides the graphics card and the bare CPU? How could you think I was being completely serious?

Probably. But I could just use some esoteric argument like XBL fees or the inflated price of console software compared to PC software to counter that.

That logic is flawed because are people who have crappy SD TV's going to buy the xbox360? No, they'll still with their ps2, xbox, or GC... Mostly just the 25% of the people who have an HD TV's will buy the xbox360, which is still a lot of people...

It's not flawed logic. The TC stated PCs were flawed because a large proportion of people are unable to enjoy them at their maximum (ie, in Directx 10), when it is similarly likely those who are buying these games are Directx 10 capable anyway.

The same rule applies to consoles.

Fact of the matter is, we can only speculate on the relationship between HDTV and 360 ownership. The TC's scenario demanded the maximum level from PCs, so I do so to consoles.

Fact number 1
you're going to need a 4 thousand dollar pc to be able to run games like crysis and UT3 on full settings.
No they run on 3 year old hardware - the Devs even said so :lol:

NO FACTS

Fact Number 2
Xbox 360 is 400 dollars.. yet will be able to run games like UT3 and look great..
You could never ever run UT3 on a 400 dollar pc..
Look at my PC prices.

NO FACTS

Fact Number 3
99.9% of you guys will not be able to run crysis, UT3 or any Dx10 game on full settings..
So stop saying how the pc version will "look and run " better when it doesn't matter cause most people won't run the game on full settings.
Hear of A 8600 or 8800 GTS? No?

NO FACTS

anyways.. I can come up with more facts but I can only handle so much backlash the hermits are gonna give me..

You have... NO FACTS :lol:

Even though you have somewhat of a good point, seriously? Did you even try to pic out good games or did you just name all of them. I mean "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles"? "Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2"? "Alan Wake"? You should refine your list with only good upcomming PC exlusive games...

Even though you have somewhat of a good point, seriously? Did you even try to pic out good games or did you just name all of them. I mean "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles"? "Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2"? "Alan Wake"? You should refine your list with only good upcomming PC exlusive games...



Thats all PC games. Some people may like Ninja Tutles :P

All the Exclusives and multiplats are there.
Go look.

Fact number 1
you're going to need a 4 thousand dollar pc to be able to run games like crysis and UT3 on full settings.

Fact Number 2
Xbox 360 is 400 dollars.. yet will be able to run games like UT3 and look great..
You could never ever run UT3 on a 400 dollar pc..

Fact Number 3
99.9% of you guys will not be able to run crysis, UT3 or any Dx10 game on full settings..
So stop saying how the pc version will "look and run " better when it doesn't matter cause most people won't run the game on full settings.

anyways.. I can come up with more facts but I can only handle so much backlash the hermits are gonna give me..

Also his prices are off


360 and PS3 killer PC
CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 $250
(way off, the e6300 debuted at $180, its going to drop even less to like $140 in a month or 2 when the e6320 comes out.
Gigabyte GA-965P-S3 $155 (actually its more like $125)
G.Skill NT 2GB DDR2 667Mhz $255 (duuuude, you can get 2gb DDR2 800mhz ram for that much, and you have to have ddr2 800mhz at least anyways if you're going to overclock that system)
Gigabyte 7900GS 256MB DDR3 $200 (the x1950pro beats out the 7900gs by a mile for the same price.
120GB SEAGATE SATA $80 (you can get a 320gb SATA for $90 now)
LG 16x DVD-RW DVDRW $40 (ok)
Thermaltake Soprano (with Thermaltake 430W PSU) $120(ok as well, could be a bit cheaper though)

Still a nice bit of ownage though, even with the incorrect prices/poor part choices. :lol:

GRAW2 is a PC exclusive. It's being made by a different dev. It's a tactical FPS, and will be MUCH more tactical than the console versions. Read the IGN preview for it, all they do is praise it. Considering that GRAW PC's SP was better than the 360 version's (even GS thinks so), I wouldn't expect any different now. And what brought GRAW's score down before was high system requirements and mediocre MP, but in the preview IGN did they said the MP seems to be really nice and greatly improved, as well as optimization of the engine.
