I find it funny that hermits will post images of current PC games running on the best possible PC of the moment and compare images to an Xbox 360 title and then say "TLHBO!"  I sure would hope that a PC game running on a $2000-$3000 machine would look better than a game on the $400 Xbox 360. 

Do hermits find themselves superior that their machine that costs 5 or 6 or 7 times more than the 360 can produce better graphics?  If so, then I just don't understand their mentality because hermits can upgrade their graphics card every year and a half while console gamers can't.  Hermits have much more expensive machines that can continually be upgraded, yet they make fun of console graphics for being inferior? 

On a side note....Doom 3 for the Xbox came close to looking as good as Doom 3 on the PC.  If anything, hermits should've been embarrassed by that.  Yeah, Doom 3 came out later on Xbox than the PC version...a whole 8 or 9 months later and running on 2001 architecture.

I'm a hermit and I don't care about graphics. PC games are just 10 billion times more fun than any console game...especially anything on $atanBox.

Every multiplat game on the same engine looks better on PC, with hardware thats around $800...once the price drops in the spring...more like $600

Your don't use your brain sometimes...Many PC cound run Doom3 480i, with no AA or AF...

My PC costed me around $1000 dollars to build 2 years ago.  Since then I've had to upgrade my video card once and upgrade my ram.  Oblivion still looked better than the 360 version.

Lemmings are just as guilty as Hermits, especially when Gears of War was released.

No, PC's don't cost $2000-3000. Get over it. My rig costs $1k. Please stop with that over used misconception. I am sick of it. And no, Doom3 does for the Xbox looks like absolute CRAP compared to the PC version. Get over it. We get made when console fanboys say "TEH PC GAMES HAVE NO GOOD GRAPHICS AND TEH PC GAMES SUXZORZ LOLZ".......

don't you find it funny that you call yourself a gamer, yet only care about graphics? You do know that the orignal Half-Life/Counter-strike is the most widely played online game in the world? I'm sure all those people really care about what Gears of War looks like when they have been experiencing some of the most intense gaming for the past 10 years.

A PC will do MORE than just play games. It can surf the internet, compile files (In multiple formats such as .zip and .rar), render CGI, image edit, audio edit, play DVDs, play games (As well as ALL other PC games before it with a few tweaks if needed, and emulators for the older consoles), play music, burn CDs and DVDs, act as a TV (With a TV-Tuner card), display resolutions higher than 1080p (Yes, there's HIGHER than 1920x1080), do your taxes, calculate equations, word process, send e-mail, create vector animations, output 5.1 surround sound (With a proper sound card and speakers that support Dolby Digital), mod games, and I'm sure there's MUCH more.

What can a 360 do?

Play 360 games, play Xbox 1 games, play DVDs, play music, and view photos.

Compare 5 uses on a 360 to 20+ uses on a PC.

Console gaming IS inferior. Here's a good example. Take Ghost Recon 1 on the PC, and the port for the Xbox. Notice the lack of precision aiming? Notice the dumbed down AI? Notice that you move slower? This is to compensate for the controller and the lack of the processor in a console being able to process actions any faster than a current PC in the same time frame.

Doom 3 Xbox 1 is the same as PC? PLEASE talk out of your ass more! There are a SUBSTANTIAL amount of extremely low-res textures and models in the Xbox 1 version. On top of that, the lack of proper dynamic lighting (Shadows being casted from your flashlight and the Imp's fireball) is also VERY noticeable when going PC to Xbox 1.

Please talk out of your ass more.

Wrong. If any PC gamer has a high end rig and payed more than 2grand for it, they are shopping without any knowledge or just don't have a budget limit. A 900 dollar PC can out-do a 360 right now, and that's just in terms of graphics. Surfing the web, downloading games/music/movies, and just flat out making art with photoshop are just some of the features a PC can do. I sure as hell don't pay 900 dollars for a PC and just play games. :|

Edit: Saw some other posts and reminded me that I don't care about graphics as much as people make out hermits to be. I play PC for the better and longer lasting games. (get a decent rig, and you WILL see what I mean, i hated PC games 3+ years ago). Graphics are an added bonus, not to mention at LEAST 10 mods PER GAME (usually).

hermits barely post on system wars because they don't care about graphics. Every generation people will argue which looks better, and we'll be playing counter-strike and starcraft not caring at all.

Maybe noone responded because you know nothing about computer hardware.

A PC that can run new games is only around $1000 now. Do some research before self-owning yourself.

And on this subject, usually the only time I or any other PC gamer make fun of console graphics is when console gamers claim that Gears of War or some other decent looking game looks better than, let's say, Crysis, or other graphically superior games, when they are just flat out wrong.

Haha, no. The game even runs in 480p on Xbox and resources were still heavily downgraded.

Ever heard of that True_Gamer hermit guy that hates all consoles? He just made graphics thread comparing Gears to Total War 2 and self-owned himself because character models and textures in TW2 look like poo.

Every multiplat game on the same engine looks better on PC, with hardware thats around $800...once the price drops in the spring...more like $600

Your don't use your brain sometimes...Many PC cound run Doom3 480i, with no AA or AF...

Really ?  Because SC.DA looks better on my 360 then it does my x1900 and that pc cost me about 1200 to build.  Please look into your facts and individual games before you make random assumptions.

Ever heard of that True_Gamer hermit guy that hates all consoles? He just made graphics thread comparing Gears to Total War 2 and self-owned himself because character models and textures in TW2 look like poo.

[QUOTE="AvIdGaMeR444"]On a side note....Doom 3 for the Xbox came close to looking as good as Doom 3 on the PC. If anything, hermits should've been embarrassed by that. Yeah, Doom 3 came out later on Xbox than the PC version...a whole 8 or 9 months later and running on 2001 architecture.

Haha, no. The game even runs in 480p on Xbox and resources were still heavily downgraded.

It looks better then a pc running it at minium settings. Not bad for a xbox with 64 megs of Ram.

Well ofcourse PCs are always upgraded, and really have few great exclusive except for RTS and MMORPGs. Plus they do always bring up games like Crysis which you aren't going to get to play on a midrange PC sorry. You'll need to upgrade to Vista, get a DX10 card if you want the bells and wistles, and a decent CPU/RAM combination. No DX10 cards now are below $300 and for 1-2 DX10 games that aren't even out yet. It will be atleast another year for DX10 games to be in decent supply, Vista to have matured enough for drivers, before I even think of my PC ruling over my console.

Really ? Because SC.DA looks better on my 360 then it does my x1900 and that pc cost me about 1200 to build. Please look into your facts and individual games before you make random assumptions. Billyhyw

Haha, I REALLY doubt that even though the game is terribly optimized for PC and Ubi is garbage.

Sure, but it's far from looking "almost as good" as the PC version.

[QUOTE="AvIdGaMeR444"] Hermits have much more expensive machines that can continually be upgraded, yet they make fun of console graphics for being inferior?

AlbertE-

And on this subject, usually the only time I or any other PC gamer make fun of console graphics is when console gamers claim that Gears of War or some other decent looking game looks better than, let's say, Crysis, or other graphically superior games, when they are just flat out wrong.

Crysis and what other graphically superior game?  Because other then Crysis there is nothing on pc that touches Gears of War.

I find it funny that hermits will post images of current PC games running on the best possible PC of the moment and compare images to an Xbox 360 title and then say "TLHBO!" I sure would hope that a PC game running on a $2000-$3000 machine would look better than a game on the $400 Xbox 360.

Do hermits find themselves superior that their machine that costs 5 or 6 or 7 times more than the 360 can produce better graphics? If so, then I just don't understand their mentality because hermits can upgrade their graphics card every year and a half while console gamers can't.

Every multiplat game on the same engine looks better on PC, with hardware thats around $800...once the price drops in the spring...more like $600

Your don't use your brain sometimes...Many PC cound run Doom3 480i, with no AA or AF...

SCDA is a poorly ported game not a hardware limitation. Prey and Quake 4 are the same thing but for the 360.

A PC will do MORE than just play games. It can surf the internet, compile files (In multiple formats such as .zip and .rar), render CGI, image edit, audio edit, play DVDs, play games (As well as ALL other PC games before it with a few tweaks if needed, and emulators for the older consoles), play music, burn CDs and DVDs, act as a TV (With a TV-Tuner card), display resolutions higher than 1080p (Yes, there's HIGHER than 1920x1080), do your taxes, calculate equations, word process, send e-mail, create vector animations, output 5.1 surround sound (With a proper sound card and speakers that support Dolby Digital), mod games, and I'm sure there's MUCH more.

What can a 360 do?

Play 360 games, play Xbox 1 games, play DVDs, play music, and view photos.

Compare 5 uses on a 360 to 20+ uses on a PC.

Console gaming IS inferior. Here's a good example. Take Ghost Recon 1 on the PC, and the port for the Xbox. Notice the lack of precision aiming? Notice the dumbed down AI? Notice that you move slower? This is to compensate for the controller and the lack of the processor in a console being able to process actions any faster than a current PC in the same time frame.

Doom 3 Xbox 1 is the same as PC? PLEASE talk out of your ass more! There are a SUBSTANTIAL amount of extremely low-res textures and models in the Xbox 1 version. On top of that, the lack of proper dynamic lighting (Shadows being casted from your flashlight and the Imp's fireball) is also VERY noticeable when going PC to Xbox 1.

Please talk out of your ass more.

1st of all buddy...I used the word close.  I never once said that Doom 3 looked exactly as good on Xbox as PC...

Not during the time of its release it wasnt. Which came out about the time when a Gforce 6series was a top of the line card i belive.  Its obvious that the game will continue to look better and run smoother on cards that just came out over a 5 year old console.  But during the Xbox lifespan it held its own pretty good unitll its last year.

Exactly which is alwasy important that you look at the idivisual game instead of saying "All games look better" On a certail platform like are previous poster did.

This is only due to lack of graphically impressive titles, not hardware limitations. Unreal Tournament 3 comes out relatively soon..as a multiplatform UE3 title, I'm sure it'll make it even more clear the gap that exists even this early in the console's life cycles.

You seem to forget that the Xbox ran games at 480P(480X720) while PC games were evaluated at either 1024X728 or 1280X1024. This makes the game look alot better and takes alot more hardware power.

To everyone claiming they've owned me regarding Doom 3 graphics....take a look at this.

http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/doom3/index.html?q=doom%203

"Those amazing good looks survived the translation to the Xbox well intact".

I take that to mean that Doom 3 comes somewhat close to the PC version in graphical terms. 

If I'm talking outta my ass as some of you seem to think, then I guess Greg Kasavin (who is a game expert in this business) is talking outta his butt as well....
