Thats why UT3 sucked and Epic started saying PC is dead because we don't to buy their console crap.

They shouldve kept Unreal Championship on consoles and Unreal Tournament on PC so we couldve had the true sequel to UT2K4

Painballz

Epic were making those comments about piracy months before UT3 was released.

Pre-Built? What is your problem? It is called Integrated.. Repeat after me.. Integrated! Let me guess you took a Computer class in high school and you think your John **** Carmack give me a break.

This is intergrated?

the fact that COD4 on the 360 runs at a sub HD resolution and runs easily at native 1080p on a PC doesnt strike you as odd in any sort of way?

cobrax25

Are you aware that COD4 is locked at 60fps on 360? If the goal was 30fps they could have easily done 720p.

Similar hardware on a pc would need everything set on low at 800x600 to stay at 60fps.

I just used it in the sense of the Factory putting it together. Welcome to the english language multiple meanings for one word.

Uh... no. I'm rocking 1680x1050 on an 8xAGP card with a steady 50 FPS all the time. That's almost 4x the pixels per image for 10 frames less per second.

At least 2 year old consoles can still play decent games. I doubt a 2 year old pc could play brand new games.

The Pc is bogged down with vista. That seriously hampers game performance. Plus if the consoles were the price of gaming rigs, they would be alot stronger than pcs.

A two year old PC can play Crysis with decent settings. A console can't even play Crysis without it being dumbed down severely.

That doesn't make any sense since PC's are upgradable and consoles are watered down PC's that can be upgraded

Xbox 360 runs an X1900 2 years old and incredibly weak by today's standards

PS3 runs a 7800 GTX also 2 years old and incredibly weak by today's standards

So which is it: PCs don't have to be upgraded every two years, or two year old hardware is "incredibly weak by today's standards"?

Oh, the upgrade argument...

If you run games on medium settings halfway through a decently built and spec'ed computer's life, it'll look just as good as those games you were originally able to max out. This gets worse and worse over time, of course, but at least you hvae the option to have the best gaming experience possible. Console owners don't even get that option in the first place.

However, this thread is garbage/troll material /shrug.

The 7800GTX and X1900XT are still very decent cards by todays standards and can play most new games out on high settings (except for a few such as Crysis). You have to remember that developers can do a LOT more with the console graphics cards due to them being the same for every console; thus the optimization they can perform is a lot more efficient than that on a PC.

7900gtx is faster than any agp card and coupled with a core 2 x6800 benched only 34fps at 1280x1024 no aa right here at Gamespot. Those benchmarks are on par with other sites. Do you have a magical pc?

34fps means about 25-70 fps. Dropping to 1024x768 will gain about 10 frames average and thats still well below the 360's constant 60fps with 1024x600 2xaa.

how do u feel knowing its gonna be outdated in 6 months ..whereas consoles arent for 3-4 yrs atleast Amit_Raj

How do you feel when i call you an idiot? Ill tell you why, consoles were outdated.....well ages ago lol, before they were released in fact. the 8800GT will be a great card for awhile longer, games in 2009 will start to show its weakness but then again the card will be running those games on a setting that will blow away any console game.

How does it feel to have games that look just as good come out on consoles first....(ports)

How does it feel to have to regulary update your PC system to keep up with games? MORE MONEY? YES OH YES!

how does it feel to have to optimizing settings for certain machines to better run the game?

How does it feel not to be able to pop in and play?

how does it feel not to get some of the best exclusives ONLY consoles have?

how does it feel knowing PC isn't soley built for games?

..???

Serbiam
its obvious your not a pc gamer. a pc can last just as long as a piece of crap console...if your willing to turn down the graphics at some point. and gaming pc's are only more expensive up front, over time you end up spending less then an over priced console that you did not choose the hardware for, and has tons of problems.

:roll: What are you talking about.. I have yet to see any game being released in the next 2 years rivaling Crysis in visuals for the PC. And the 8800 GT plays the game quite well.

Doesnt matter anyway. Someone brought up a silly comment about COD4 running at 600p when even a faster card than what the 360 has like the 7900gtx with a cpu thats 5x faster than the 360's cant come close to 360's image-performance ratio.

The guy is lying anyway no pc game runs at 50fps all the time. Its impossible.

What are you talking about? When I play HL it runs constantly between 80-110 FPS :S, why is 50 impossible? My cod 4 runs around 70FPS

[QUOTE="Amit_Raj"]how do u feel knowing its gonna be outdated in 6 months ..whereas consoles arent for 3-4 yrs atleast michael098

How do you feel when i call you an idiot? Ill tell you why, consoles were outdated.....well ages ago lol, before they were released in fact. the 8800GT will be a great card for awhile longer, games in 2009 will start to show its weakness but then again the card will be running those games on a setting that will blow away any console game.

agreed

The 7800GTX and X1900XT are still very decent cards by todays standards and can play most new games out on high settings (except for a few such as Crysis). You have to remember that developers can do a LOT more with the console graphics cards due to them being the same for every console; thus the optimization they can perform is a lot more efficient than that on a PC.EXLINK
exept, the cards are restricted to 256mb of ram, and probably even less then that at times. and not to mention the puny memory bandwidth. the RSX is like a 7800GTX with the mem bandwidth of a radeon 9800. and its even worse for the 360.
