Actually, if you own a console, you can probably get by on a substandard gaming PC and still play the major PC releases. All the major PC exclusives I know of will run just fine on a GTX 460, Star Citizen included (although it's severely downgraded on that card, so a GTX 660 would be better). The money that would be spent on an expensive graphics card could go to buying a console instead - thereby unlocking the largest number of exclusive titles available to you.

[But many in PC gaming would consider that thought sacrilegious.]

It's just pathetic that consolites don't even argue anymore, at this point they just yell like monkeys and throw their feces. Why admins tolerate such behaviors - people that recur to undisguised insults and trolling should be banned immediately.

You really are a moaning bitch. Must be fun in real life. The door is that way if you cant handle it cry baby

Puts on moaning whiny voice

"I dont like some one they should be banned" You are a fucken pussy bro. Man up

Lol. I am not into competition with 13 old pricks that swear a lot and pretend to act all manly on internet. Seriously, are you at your puberty or something ? Let me guess, you look like this, right ?

No way!!! I can play Divinity on a console?!!!

Oh look the closet lem. If you cum out dude im going to shove you right back in fool. Hiding behind PC weak man weak.

Oh no!!! I'm in tha closet?!!!! I own an X1, PS4, PS Vita 3DS and a gaming PC(thank you VA). I know where my preference lies and others here do. I don't hide it. But the statement was Star Citizen and OLD STEAM games. Fail. Divinity isn't old, and quite good actually. You keep to one platform if you want, I never have.

Sure mate sure. What ever you say. U transparent see right through you.

If you don't I would suggest "hooked on phonics" or glasses. I have never hidden my preference hear. But I don't discount other platforms. Do you?

We all know you a closet lem bum boi. Deny deny deny. lol. You seem defensive of basic facts. Hows that working for you?

You are funny. If everyone here knows I prefer the X1, especially after my back and forth in another thread with a cow a few days ago, how am I in the closet? You are reaching son. Bottom line? I still play games on anything, everything if possible. Do you?

For some reason I don't feel the need to defend myself. You should try it some time. May make you come across less pathetic.

Sorry didn't read the post, busy playing Ryse at 1440p maxed out settings which cost me half what the console version retails for. Don't get too butthurt about not knowing the experience of playing at 60fps 1080p as a minimum. I'm off now to play some multiplayer which doesn't cost me a yearly subscription.

Unless of course you want to play super niche titles like Star Citizen or old ass steam games.

Once the PC version of rise ended up looking barely better then the same lauch title on the Xbone it was obvious PC is becoming a joke to everyone who goes outside their basement.

Dont bother trying to convince me PC is worth getting too. Because its not. Why would I ever build a PC to PS4 spec and miss out on the PSN and iuts great features like getting free games every month? Oh I forgot you guys get old ass PC game sales all the time on Steam.. Boo hoo.

Thing is hermits are still begging for GTAV and its been out for a year. Console gets all the great games that arent super niche like Star Citizen. And they look and play fantastic. No reason at all to bother throwing money down the toilet for a PC

This is the most uninformed post ever. You've clearly spent very little time gaming on a PC and know little about the platform. Everyone has covered the benefits of PC gaming (resolution and framerate, cheaper games, mods, free multiplayer, etc.) so I don't have too much more to say about that. But I own a PS4 and Xbox One solely for exclusives (which have been few and far between) and a PC for all multiplats and PC exclusives. I don't know what you mean by "old ass Steam games" but you do realize that pretty much every game that's on both consoles releases at the exact same time on PC, right? And yeah there are old games - you can play any game released from the past couple decades which you can't do without owning about ten game consoles. Sorry dog, but you're wrong.

The way I see it, if you have a PC, there's no reason to own a console. PC has the best exclusives and best versions of multiplats. I have a PS4 and Wii U for the exclusives, but that's just because I like wasting money. I could easily go without consoles and just game on PC. As for Xbox One, I'm never wasting money on that pile of crap.

If you truly want to hit the entire gaming spectrum, you must have a PC somewhere in the mix.

I kind of need my PC for school AND work. I can't do everything I need on a damn tablet or smart phone. And I certainly can't do it on a console. If I need a PC or laptop for school/work anyway, why not spend a little more to be able to play some games on it, too?

Not even exaggerating. Look at ultrabook or high-end laptop prices (without even a dedicated graphics card) and gaming laptop prices. You can find a decent gaming laptop or build a awesome desktop PC for the same price or less.

But in all fairness, those games also have trouble on the consoles.

I'll still take the fact that all three games are better on PC regardless.

Yes, true.

The evil within is crappily optimized on every single platform. Dead Rising 3 is a blast to play on PC, but it's a shame it requires such hefty hardware and the difference between min and recommended specs isn't enough. There is not enough scalability in the game.

It remains to be seen with AC: Unity but I think that will be one of the first games that could end up better on consoles.

Because I doubt the very high recommended specs are even enough to run the game fluidly on 1080/60 with the amount of crappy ports we've seen from Ubisoft.

really? i started gaming on PC when i was 6 then when i was 9 i build my own PC (i know nothing about GPU at that age so i ended up buying a shitty GPU) when i was 12 i learned from my mistakes and bought a great GPU.

Never regret not buying a single console.

What a shame you missed out on some great games unlike the wise ones among us that purchase all game capable devices.

no the reason i never have a console is that they cost much higher than PC in Indonesia

at this moment you indeed don't have much reason to have a pc or it is you want to play oculus rift or with a mouse and keyboard.

OR previous gen games in next gen graphics...

or borderlands in decent resolution and graphics

or upcoming games in 1080p or even 4 k at higher fps than 30

or because i have money and you don't

BUM

Sure mate sure. Your a mother fucken millionaire. Thats why your here aye bitch. Such a joke. Thanks Ill be laughing all day now.

year sure every guy on here with a decent pc is millionare.

Because to be able to spend a 1000$ or less you need a thousands times that much

time to go back to elementary school bum

Cow jester, you please me.

@ghostwarrior786 can you do better? Need to know which is the better SW jester.

Fair enough. A TPS that is graphically better than The Order.. An open world super hero game that is graphically better than Infamous SS. Prototype on PC? Eh nope. Car game with graphics like DriveClub? GRiD 2? Not even slightly. Killzone SF vs Crysis 3? KZSF beats it in many areas in fact. Not in others. All on weak shit hardware that hermits like to laugh at.

Hermits keep saying (falsely) that they have had these visuals in games for years on PC. And the fact is, no they haven't. Uprezzed ports from Xbox 360 =/= necst jen.

2014 console graphics>>>>PC graphics for the last 2 years. That's not to say the PC couldn't do those visuals. But the argument of consoles having 2011 graphics is dumb shit.

And all you've done on GS is jump on that bandwagon. With no real thinking for yourself. Congrats.

Crysis 2 came out in 2011 and I absolutely believe it has visuals on par or better than most games on PS4 and Xbox One. I just played the PC version the other day as matter of fact and it still looks stunning. Unlike the console versions, the PC version is running at 1080p and 60fps with DX11 features and very high resolution textures. If they were to release some "remastered version" on the next-gen consoles it would aim to look and run like the PC version did in 2011. Hell, they just released Metro Redux and Metro 2033 which came out in 2010 still doesn't look and run and good as it would on a good PC. It's even in 900p on Xbox One and came out four years ago...

So this belongs in a blog. If you post a troll thread with nothing to discuss (ie "this is what I believe and nothing will convince me otherwise") and then abandon the thread it will just get locked.
