PC > Everything

[QUOTE="SeanBond"]

Every single hermit that makes this tired statement clearly isn't a fan of many of the genres consoles are most famous for (and yes, the same can be said for console fanboys). Let's face it: If you're a fan of sports games, platformers, certain types of adventure games, JRPGs, or Nintendo's first party games, the PC isn't even an option. This (and the issue of not wanting to tinker with my PC) is the primary reason I don't play PC games, and until this is no longer an issue, I'll still be spending the majority of my time/money on consoles rather than my PC.

Just to be clear, I think we all understand here that the PC has certain irrefutable advantages over consoles, but it's FAR from being the ultimate solution for gaming.

I am a true Hermit (I own only PC games) and I am a fan of sports games, some JRPGs, Nintendo first party games, but I refuse to get a console. I believe they should come to me, not me to them. I don't allow myself to enjoy them simply because I would consider it a betrayel of my platform. This is not sarcasm, this is my honest opinion.

...A betrayel of your platform? If you are a true gamer, you'll want to play as many games as possible. Who cares if you betray the PC? Gaming is a hobby. Hobbies are things you do in your free time to have FUN. You should limit your fun just so you can stay loyal to something that doesn't even matter.

WOW just WOW

Come on explain yourself, I like to hear. I love PC gaming, but I don't think its better, nor do I think consoles are. Each provider differently. None are better.

This is the truth. Hermits cant realize this for some reason. I remember when hermits were reasonable and logical... But that was a long time ago... I like having a mix of pc games and console because they both provide different games and choices. None are better, just different

Any time I have owned a console it has just gathered dust even when I owned a fair number of games for them. I just don't get nearly the same use out of them. I figure the money I would be spending on consoles and console games is money I could spend on PC games and PC hardware that I will get use out of.

Or Lost Odyssey, Disgaea, or any other form of Japanese video games.

Seriously now, why is there even a debate. The PC is the best console availabe, by far.

Well first of all, it has the best graphics available. They look crazy good. Consoles don't come close to comparing. But thats all a given. So I'm not even going to talk about that.

But I'm gonna talk about what matters: the games. The pc is home to the highest and best library of games. It has the best graphics by far. You can't even do true HD on aconsole, my pc could go way higher than that even in the 90s, lol. Seriously, the graphics kick the console graphics out of the park. True, you have to upgrade, but you could easily build a high end pc rig that could run Gears 2 easily for less than $400.

Agree?
