Yet here i am struggling on deciding what great games to buy, bought spore and am having a blast with it, bought clear skies and although its insanely difficult its turning into a fantastic gaming experience. Tomorrow WAR is released, its looking like its going to be another great game. Next week we have warhead and not long after that The Witcher EE, I'm spoilt for choice here.

Really, if this is what happens when a system is dying then R.I.P Pc gaming.

no, its fun. Also if you look at the many pc related threads you will find many many consolits who do infact claim Pc gaming is infact dying. They also claim Pc has no good games or any good exclusives. So, with that i think this thread is very relevant here in SW.

Good day to you.

well all i know is only 2 titles interest me: warhead and spore. also when i go to the GAME (UK) or other game retail stores, the consoles occupy a far greater store space. hell in gamestation the PC section was a corner of the store and the new and old titles were mixed together.

No one said that. Stop shoving words into peoples' mouths.

:lol:

Is that what you hermits do? Make these huge generalizations about the sentiments of consoles gamers, exaggerate, make a thread, then counter it so damn easily just to make it look like you're in the right?

Wow this thread was absolutely pointless. Don't do that again.

no you stop getting all defensive lol. Its not aimed at you personally but is aimed at the consolites that insist pc gaming is dead and has no games worth playing. There are about 30 such posts throughout the 1st page of threads. So this is aimed at those people. If you are not one of those people don't reply, don't cry and act like a baby either.

I wanna see someone (with reputation) that said the PC has absolutely no games, and is on its way out.



here ya go, took only a minute or 2 to find these, their all around in any thready even somewhat related to pc games...

I used to be a tottally hardcore PC gamer. I would swear off any console and be like, who the hell buys consoles? Until 2008, my last console was the Gamecube which I played for a year then I barely played after that. I was esentially hardcore at PC gaming for 5 years.

So much changed in that time, World of Warcraft happened, Age of Empires 3 was an inferior sequel to one of my favorite games of all time and of course Half Life 2 came out. I regret none of my days spent with PC gaming in the past. My 4000 hours of it on my xfire is a testament to that and believe me that's only half the story. I got that two years after I started PC gaming.

Now these days I just sit here and say, what the hell happened to PC gaming? There are so many things that went wrong here. What ever happened to the games the PC does best? RTS, RPG, MMORPG, Simulation Games. These days it's all FPS and crappy versions of the genres I listed.

I remember when continious good games came out and the PC truly was superior.

Warcraft 3, Diablo 2, Battlefield 2, Battlefield 1942, Call of Duty 2, Company of Heroes, Guild Wars, World of Warcraft, Black and White, Rome Total War, Medieval Total War, Command and Conquer Red Alert 2, I could go on and on for days.

Now what do we have for PC...

Battlefield Heroes, ugh. Call of Duty World At War...great.

And where is the RTS? Sins of the Solar Empire was a niche piece. I haven't seen an awesome PC RTS, RPG, or MMORPG in a very long time. The consoles are a whole different story.

I pray for the day PC gaming becomes fresh again, I'm tired of console ports, lame games taking advantage of the PC and the sparse great games. The PC is worth so much more.

Fact is, PC gaming will NEVER die. That is just rediculous people. Im not a big PC gamer,and even I know this. There would be more a chance of Mario going multiplat then PC gaming dying.

On a side note....Consoles are closing in quickly on multitasking. Which is what makes PC's so nice. If I only gamed on my PC then it would actually do EVERYTHING I need it to. I do everything from photos, to music, to playing stepmania, to surfing the web, watching home videos on it, watching tv programs on it...chatting with people, I do art on my pc...It does everything. AND, if something breaks down on it....I can fix it. No worrying with warranties or any LIVE pay either..

I love consoles and have been playing them since 1980. That will never change, but my love for the PC will never change either.

stupid post of the week?

I dont see anything stupid in his statement



there are many many more comments swarming around like this in pc related threads, so quit denying it

I see 2 people complaining about not liking what PC Gaming is offering them nowadays..... I don't see anything about "PC Gaming is dying" there do you? Ahh.... nice try though..... FAIL!

I don't like what Nintendo is currently offering me.... does that mean I think Nintendo is dying?? LOL give up Fanboys, you've lost.

You get consolites saying it all the time. There doesnt need to be an actual topic on it but when a hermit expresses his or her opinion they get the usual "pc gaming is dying" retorts.

Then when some like Frozzik starts a thread like this all the consolites go into denial. I'm actually working at the moment so I havent got time but later I'll try and log on and I'm sure I can dig up tons of examples of consolites saying it.

No one said that. Stop shoving words into peoples' mouths.

:lol:

Is that what you hermits do? Make these huge generalizations about the sentiments of consoles gamers, exaggerate, make a thread, then counter it so damn easily just to make it look like you're in the right?

Wow this thread was absolutely pointless. Don't do that again.

Veterngamer

no you stop getting all defensive lol. Its not aimed at you personally but is aimed at the consolites that insist pc gaming is dead and has no games worth playing. There are about 30 such posts throughout the 1st page of threads. So this is aimed at those people. If you are not one of those people don't reply, don't cry and act like a baby either.

Tell ya what Frozzik.... you link me a thread where someone said that "PC Gaming is dying" in the last week, and I'll admit that this topic was relevant and needed. Oh and it has to be serious.... not someone making a joke.....

Yep. I wanna see it too.

I wanna see someone (with reputation) that said the PC has absolutely no games, and is on its way out.



here ya go, took only a minute or 2 to find these, their all around in any thready even somewhat related to pc games...

I used to be a tottally hardcore PC gamer. I would swear off any console and be like, who the hell buys consoles? Until 2008, my last console was the Gamecube which I played for a year then I barely played after that. I was esentially hardcore at PC gaming for 5 years.

So much changed in that time, World of Warcraft happened, Age of Empires 3 was an inferior sequel to one of my favorite games of all time and of course Half Life 2 came out. I regret none of my days spent with PC gaming in the past. My 4000 hours of it on my xfire is a testament to that and believe me that's only half the story. I got that two years after I started PC gaming.

Now these days I just sit here and say, what the hell happened to PC gaming? There are so many things that went wrong here. What ever happened to the games the PC does best? RTS, RPG, MMORPG, Simulation Games. These days it's all FPS and crappy versions of the genres I listed.

I remember when continious good games came out and the PC truly was superior.

Warcraft 3, Diablo 2, Battlefield 2, Battlefield 1942, Call of Duty 2, Company of Heroes, Guild Wars, World of Warcraft, Black and White, Rome Total War, Medieval Total War, Command and Conquer Red Alert 2, I could go on and on for days.

Now what do we have for PC...

Battlefield Heroes, ugh. Call of Duty World At War...great.

And where is the RTS? Sins of the Solar Empire was a niche piece. I haven't seen an awesome PC RTS, RPG, or MMORPG in a very long time. The consoles are a whole different story.

I pray for the day PC gaming becomes fresh again, I'm tired of console ports, lame games taking advantage of the PC and the sparse great games. The PC is worth so much more.

Fact is, PC gaming will NEVER die. That is just rediculous people. Im not a big PC gamer,and even I know this. There would be more a chance of Mario going multiplat then PC gaming dying.

On a side note....Consoles are closing in quickly on multitasking. Which is what makes PC's so nice. If I only gamed on my PC then it would actually do EVERYTHING I need it to. I do everything from photos, to music, to playing stepmania, to surfing the web, watching home videos on it, watching tv programs on it...chatting with people, I do art on my pc...It does everything. AND, if something breaks down on it....I can fix it. No worrying with warranties or any LIVE pay either..

I love consoles and have been playing them since 1980. That will never change, but my love for the PC will never change either.

Yet here i am struggling on deciding what great games to buy, bought spore and am having a blast with it, bought clear skies and although its insanely difficult its turning into a fantastic gaming experience. Tomorrow WAR is released, its looking like its going to be another great game. Next week we have warhead and not long after that The Witcher EE, I'm spoilt for choice here.

Really, if this is what happens when a system is dying then R.I.P Pc gaming.

Don't cry just because you can't deliver.... I asked for an example of someone saying "PC gaming was dying" or some variation of that, within the past week.... you have failed to do so.....

Go cry in your basement Hermit.... you have failed...

Has it been said b4 in SW that PC gaming is dying? Yes it has..... is it even remotely as rampant as the constant "So PC Gaming is dying eh?" threads? NOPE!

For every person that claims PC Gaming is dying... you have 20 Hermits trying to prove otherwise... its getting really old...

Hey I know... why not make some more threads about the Wii not being as powerful as the 360/PS3.... they'd be just as informative and original.

You didn't give any legitimate examples.... people saying that they aren't interested in PC Gaming the way they used to be, and complaining about whats currently offered on the Platform, is not in any way related to "PC Gaming Death".

As I said b4, I can not like what the PS3 is offering... even though I used to play on the PS1 & PS2... does that mean I'm saying that the Playstation brand is dying? NOPE!

Why is this difficult for you to understand?

whatever you say man...

this bickering between us is about whether there are people in thise forum who still say and complain about PC having no games, and is on its way out, pc gaming dying


it all generally means the same thing


but according to your incredible reading comprehension, the examples i gave have absolutly nothing to do with...pc not having any games, on its way out, dying, etc

ya...right...

The 1st person you quoted is simply talking about how he used to love PC Gaming, and now he doesn't, he feels that PC Gaming doesnt offer him what it used to.... SO WHAT!?! How does that translate to "PC GAMING IS DYING"? It doesn't....

The other guy you quoted... says that "HE" can't see why anyone would play anything other than WoW on the PC.... again, he makes no claims that games don't exist or that PC GAMING is dying.... he merely points out his disinterest in the Platform....

you are just trying to win an argument.... and you're failing horribly at it. Maybe your reading comprehension isn't what you think it is.

infact, with this post of yours, u just made me win my argument

claiming u used to love pc games, and now not liking it, and feeling its not what it used to be CLEARLY implys the general aspect of pc gming dying

same with someone claiming that their is no point in wasting money of pc gaming besides WOW, which CLEARLY implys that there are no games on pc, pc gaming is dead, etc

FYI, those were just 2 examples i found within a minute, theres plenty more of those kind of comments throughout threads related to pc's

OMG... so when something changes, its the same as dying? Huh? What?

So Butterflies are ZOMBIES!? OMG! They used to be Caterpillars, and then they changed into something different... therefore they are DEAD! MY GOD! Alert the PRESS!

or in other words.... PC GAMING CHANGING =/= PC GAMING DYING or if thats too complicated for ya.... CHANGING =/= DYING

as for the 2nd guy, talking about WoW.... He didn't say he thinks PC GAMING is dying.... he just says HE, HIMSELF has no interest.

I have no interest in buying a car either.... does that mean I think the Car Industry is DYING!?!?!

ugh.... reply if you want.... but I'm finished with you.... I've wasted too much of my precious time trying to explain this very simple thing to you.... If you still don't understand, then I really feel sorry for you.

well all i know is only 2 titles interest me: warhead and spore. also when i go to the GAME (UK) or other game retail stores, the consoles occupy a far greater store space. hell in gamestation the PC section was a corner of the store and the new and old titles were mixed together.swamplord666
That happens in GameStop, too, but there's a reason for it. There's little market in used PC games (partially because plenty of PC games require online activation that ties game to machine--makes reselling almost useless), and you'd be surprised to note that the Used section in an average EB Games/GameStop is almost as big as the New section.

Also, PC is more into digital distribution and direct sales (neither of which require a brick-and-mortar presence to sell).

Because, simply, they aren't. What you're describing in the former is more indicative of a market downturn (which happens all the time, especially when money's tight, but can frequently rebound) or a market shift (a change of focus of products--also happens all the time, which is why advertisements keep changing).
