An intelligent and truly creative person will see the PC and all of it's possibility's...i'm sure many of these people fall above an IQ of 100.

Now console gamers are just lazy, uncreative and lack in many "Mental" areas. They fall into the under 100 IQ pool. They see things as a hassle, while a PC gamer see's them as gold. Let's not even touch the surface of how much farther the PC will take you for your money than a typical console. It may cost more, but it has hundreds of more uses and a life span typically longer with minor hardware changes.

Yay PC :)

I think i like most am getting tired of the console vs PC argument. Neither side is wrong with liking there choice of system.

Sure, when fanboy's rant and talk rubbish from either side they should be shot down and corrected. Nothing wrong with liking console's over PC though, nothing wrong with liking PC over console. I love playing some wii games, i love sports games with friends on my PS3. I just love PC gaming more.

Iq doesn't equal creativity. Although it definetly helps b/c the larger your knowledge base the more likely you are to use that to come to new conclusions.

I would rather spend the money it takes to buy a good PC on a console that costs 2-4 times less and get some games for it.

The Barbie magical princess IQ test does NOT count.

I'm sure if you were studied by professionals, that number would come down 30 points.

LesFinalFantasy

You're all the same. When a fact doesn't fit your hypothesis, you accuse the other party of making it up. What am I supposed to do; dig up years-old medical records to prove a point? Your argument is flawed; there's nothing about console gamers that would make them categorically less intelligent. I merely posted my IQ as a counter-example - accept it or ignore it; I don't care.

Good thing the test was administered in 1986, then. I don't know of too many people who had Internet access back then; I certainly didn't. ;)

Well your superior intelligence should have told how people would take someone on the internet throwing their IQ out there like it's their national flag. It's obvious the tc is taking a jab at console people, your "proof" (which has often been lies from other people saying their iq is higher than it is) doesn't change anything for him.

What?!? use that IQ. Saying that playing games on the PC is better (smarter) than playing on a console is ridiculous. It's exactly like saying playing music in a car is better than playing it in a living room. IF that sounds stupid to you then print it out and read it to yourself in a mirror.

I'll let you in on something, anytime someone starts of something with, "my mom says" and then follows it up w/ something about themselves, it's usually not true. After all, how would she know if you hadn't taken an iq test? and if you did, why wouldn't you know?

The feature version of Madden, Modern Fighter Releases, Nintendo games and JRPGS is what keeps me coming back to consoles. PC doesn't offer me much in any of those four catagories. And until it offers more in those catagories Consoles to me will always be needed.

Guys. Isn't it obvious? This is just a flaimbait topic created by a troll. Don't try to argue with him as it's pointless. He has no intention of getting into a serious debate. No matter what you say, how fully fleshed out your retorts, it will lead nowhere with someone who makes crass generalizations of a certain consumers intelligence.

DO NOT RESPOND. Just let this topic fall back in the pages and be locked by the mods.

I have been creative in flash animation, making music, drawing, comics, game develoment / level design and 3D modelling. I am about to study in english and biology. So much for creativity and intelligence. I have extensive knowledge about PC hard- and software, and I was a PC-Gamer up until ca. 2000. Now, the other day I had to choose between The Orange Box (PC) and The Orange Box (X360). I chose the X360-Version, and I am immensly glad that I did so.

You argument is extremely false. And also very offensive.

So anyone who has a pc is clever, anyone who has a console is not. Right...

Is your IQ above 100 TC, because that idea has to be the worst argument I have ever seen.

I am sure that there are many people who are smart and have a cosnole instead of a pc. I know loads of people who are smart and not so smart who have a pc. Same for consoles.

There are many reasons that factor into the choice between consoles and pc's. Just calling all console owners stupid does not solve anything. :roll:

I might game on my PC more often, but it isn't that powerful.

I get Great FPS in games like Team Fortress 2, WOW, and Oblivion but I can play games like COD4 without major upgrades mainly to my motherboard and processor. and if you replace those you pretty much replace the whole thing. Maybe when i save up at;east $500 i'll start buying parts to build a new PC.

I would say that PC gamers tend to have more knowledge on PC's than console gamers. Not necessarily mean that console gamers are stupid, they just don't have the commitment to Pc gaming.

Well I enjoy the huge amount of creative freedom and flexibility the PC platform, in contrast consoles dont have any in comparison.

One of the reasons I rather the platform.

edit*

And no TC is a perfect example that any PC gamer can be just as silly and ignorant as any console gamer. There is no 'difference'. There are idiots and smart people who prefer both platforms.

While hardcore PC gamers do have to put up with more complex and more frustrating crap than hardcore console gamers, you're essentialy saying that console gamers prefer consoles because they're idiots. :roll:

I'm sorry but that's dead wrong. As a hermit, I've met plenty of intellgent consolites and PC/console manticores on these forums. PC gaming does not automatically give you an extra brain, and console gaming does not remove any.

True, PC games generally require more thought and are tactically or strategically deeper, and that's why I prefer PC games. But it's not like all console games are stupid and shallow. There are plenty of games on both sides to satisfy thinker gamers.
