PC gamers always love to say "we have the most games".

While this is true, they all look like this....

images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT1jcqKO3Tn3LK0jtF4-bE

most of the time

If I'm lying, check SteamĀ ;)

Consoles are getting more indie game friendly which means indie developers which are craving for money will flock to consoles knowing that they buy games and stuff.

PC gamings advantages have been dwindling, infact the only thing left is paying a lot of money for slightly better looking console ports.

I can't wait for PC gaming to lose this indie game advantage, it will be glorious.Ā

You'll still have to separate the wheat from the massive pile of chaff. Where's the gain?

This is correct, but when you find a gem amongst the pile of crap it tends to be worthwhile. Hopefully there's quality control of some sort when making these for the consoles.

Yeah none of which require any more than an integrated graphics chip to play. I mean..you guys always love to talk about how PC has sooooo many games and yet so few of them actually push any graphical envelops. It's quite funny reading these threads of how AMD 8000 will own consoles yet most of your games don't need that kind of power, they"ll run on anything. PC is a platform where the hardware usually outpaces the games which is not a good scenario, this is mainly due to consoles btw.

Back up there cowboy, consolites are so quick to dismiss games as Indie trash but now you can't wait to get them? Ā Such hypocrisy (or trolling).

Just look at the other thread you just posted in for a great example (and no Fall Enchantress is not really Indie). Ā Just look at Steam again and you will see plenty that are PC exclusives and not Indie.

Not all games have to push the hardware. Ā And if those games are only available on PC, it doesn't matter if they don't push the graphical envelope

These exclusives are 98% of the time either an RTS or Point and Click adventure, we all know everyone are dying to play those games, amirite? We only want indie games so your hyping of how PC has so many games argument dies down.

You know cows have hit a new low when they're excited for indie games.

Of all factions, cows were the most outspoken when it came to their dislike of indie games, even going so far as to cry enough that they shouldn't count in the metagame all generation because XBLA blew PSN away.

Ignoring the evidence again? Ā Others have said Rome 2 (not RTS, TBS with tactical overhead combat), Ā ARMA 3, Shadowrun,Ā Prime World Defenders. Ā Again if you really look at Steam you will find them. Ā But since I suspect you are mostly trolling you won't.

That isn't proof. Proof is when you tally up all the exclusives and come up with a ratio.

Until consoles can provide more than a button-mashing 6-12 hour campaign, I'm not interested. I can play the same game of Total War or Civilization or a heavily modded New Vegas for months on end.

Oh, and: simulators.

Indie games are low budget, usually 2D to avoid EFFORT, and generic and bad.

I've never seen anyone aside from the herms on here even mention their existance.

indie games are kind of like games for beginners, I'm being serious.

PC Gaming standards truely have fallen

Dear diary, Today I learned that Real-Time Strategy games aren't real-time at all and are, in fact, turn-based. Also that OP is a dipshit.

Nobody wants to play these overly drawn out boring PC exclusive games that no one cares about. See it like this, if a game is on PC only..especially in todays market, its because the devs know nobody gives a shit about it.

Ps4 will have all the advantages, like playing games while they're still downloading, having GOTY exclusives just like the PS3 unlike PC gaming, have tons of indie games, take most of the PC exclusives away and much more.

Indie games are low budget, usually 2D to avoid EFFORT, and generic and bad.

I've never seen anyone aside from the herms on here even mention their existance.

indie games are kind of like games for beginners, I'm being serious.

PC Gaming standards truely have fallen

To avoid effort :lol: Yet,you claim that the PS4 will have indie games but they're generic and bad? :|
