PC Gaming makes me laugh on system wars

The price argument is really dumb in most cases.I got S.T.A.L.K.E.R for $40, and I think that's the retail price. And most new PC games are in the $50 price range. Why do the PC bashers never take into account the price of the software when they're out there screaming 'But, but the $4000 rig is needed!!!'. If I compare the purchases of games over a 2 year lifespan, it looks like this...

 

I get 20 Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 games at $60 a piece my total cost is... $1200

 

If I buy 20 PC games at $50 and a $200 video card every 2 years my price is...Get it?

Exactly...

Plus, if you want to play games online on the 360, you'll have to pay $50 a year.

Consoles appear a lot cheaper initially, but it adds up. 

The problem with the Xbox 360 is that games can't be designed for installation to the HDD. Because Microsoft decided to release a verion of the console that lacks mass storage. Meaning that DVD9 is it.

But if you design a game for the Xbox 360 that uses the hard drive for installation purposes, you are leaving out a segment of that userbase.

Good post blackbond. You should make it into a book. In the catergory with all the other fiction/fairy tales. shungokustasu

I dont see this guy post very often but when he does he never fails to make me chuckle.

I've been saying this stuff for ages and when blackbond sums it up everyone is all happy go lucky lets eat pie and drink candy apple punch? WTF?! *Throws a burrito at his cat*

Angry vandal.Vandalvideo

Wow I didn't think this would reach five pages. But to be fair Vandal you were my main inspiration for creating this post. I watch you fight the good fight day in and day out. So I decided to try my luck seeing as how I'm not really primarily a PC Gamer.

And what does the Eagles have to do with this thread? Oh wait that's right,

NICE. NO CONSOLE NUB TEARS IN THIS TREAD. PC IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO, UNLESS YOU ARE A IGNORANT SPOILED CONSOLE BRAT. PC IS THE ONLY SOURCE OF TRUE NEXT GEN GAMING. CONSOLE FANBOYS YOU ARE LIVING IN THE PAST.machitocaliente

How about no. Consoles are still fun and are still a viable gaming option. You must be crazy in the head or something.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that PC isn't the only way to go. Otherwise consoles wouldn't exist. If you think that way and that only ignorant spoiled brats are console gamers then yes I would believe that you are crazy. My logic did not back fire on me on your fanboyism like it always does. You haven't even put up one arguement to the orginal post other then that it was a fictional story. So come on bring it. Prove that its fictional? Or can you even do it?

Yeah and you owned yourself to hell and back. I'm still waiting for you to counter any of my so called fictional claims because everyone pretty much agrees that for the most part they are accurate.

Shungo the whole thread was a generalization about what is said about PC gaming on system wars you know that right? 

A lot of people still talk about PC you just fail to realize this. There are tons of people talking about Crysis, C&C3, and Stalker. 

No one will point out the flaws in my post because for the most part everyone agrees with it. Although TekkenMaster did have some note worthy points to disagree on. 

How many fanboys came in this thread and said some off the wall crap about my post? Well theres you lol

Got your point but same time i think that many pc gamers rarely buy their games.

Good post blackbond. You should make it into a book. In the catergory with all the other fiction/fairy tales. shungokustasu

wth?:?

Can you point out some of the errors in the original post? because there none.

You really dont get it, Shun. Every time you open your mouth no has ever backed you up.

Think of it this way: This post was the reverse of the anti-PC posts you make and there several people agreeing and supporting his view. You, on the other hand, make posts and no one backs you up. Do you know why? Because you just spew out bile when you start typing. Maybe if you'd make real points there migt be SOMEONE who actually agrees with the tripe you put out.

Its fact that we have more AAAs, you know why?  Because AAA is a title that GS assigns to titles based on opinions.  Thus they gave us 3 since january, fact we have 3 for this year.
