Doesn't have enough fighters to actually say they are available on PC.. as yet :)Espada12
SF4 is more than enough...and its so likely the multiplat wave to hit Soul Calibur too...
What genre is left there? FPS? RTS? Racing? Rpg? MMORPG? Adventure? All covered...True_Gamer_
Looks at username,,...how ironic :roll:

It's not like the genre is varied or anything. I don't think Street Fighter 4 is the cream of the crop, though. KoFXII wins in that dept.
Yea, I agree, but I needs more fighters to actually say *hey this genre is alive and well on PC*, SF4, SC, Blazeblue,GGX and tekken would make me think otherwise though.

MMORPG?
[QUOTE="True_Gamer_"][QUOTE="Espada12"]Other thing PC is missing out with is JRPGS.. not that I care for them but some people do, granted there are ALOT of jrpgs for PC that never make it to NA so I'm not gonna count those :pagentfred
PC is not a milking device for the impaired part of the population....
People are not going to like this post...
I love it lol.
btw there is a lot of jrpg mmo on the pc ^^
Both platforms are good. They both offer incredibly different experiences; but neither is better than the other.
There's no way to go around it: gaming is expensive, and if you want the best stuff, you need to spend alot of money. Both PC and Console gaming are expensive.
Bottom line: it's all a matter of preference.
You're just another elitist Hermit.
Wii has Super Mario Galaxy.
PS3 has Metal Gear Sold IV.
360 has Halo 3.
Those games aren't on PC. All three consoles I named also have other exclusives. So yes, if there are a number of exclusives that you want from other platforms, then there is a point in getting another system. I know for some people that Metal Gear Solid IV alone was enough to warrant the purchase of a PS3. And then, of course, you get games like Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, SIREN: Blood Curse, Disagae 3, Folklore, Motorstorm, Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, Resistance, and the like. So yeah, I say there's enough exclusive games on all platforms to warrant a purchase.

Actually if you read the thread title it says SFIV and NBA 2K9 thats all. I can play both of those on my console I was twisting his own logic. I now hear you want to include a bunch of genres now and we can do that as well. Ok PC fanboys when is God Of War coming to PC? when is the release date for HALO3, Is Wii sports coming to PC and so on and so on you get the point. The consoles do have RTS's by the way and DC Universe is coming that is an MMORPG correct? hey I think Phantasy Star was an MMORPG back in the day on XBOX 1.

Well what I've been saying in this thread is that 1 game doesn't make the genre alive on said platform.. which the TC is trying to say.

You're pitting 3 consoles against 1.

Are you saying the PC is a console?
Are you saying the PC is a console? KhansoulThe PC is a single gaming *platform* just like the 360, PS3, and Wii. Console is nothing more than a passee nomenclature that is dissolving into the realm of the past.
[QUOTE="True_Gamer_"]What genre is left there? FPS? RTS? Racing? Rpg? MMORPG? Adventure? All covered...lowe0Rock Band. And don't say Guitar Hero; it's a piss-poor shadow of its former self.
Rock band isn't a genre. The genre is Rythm, and there are plenty of them on the PC.
Not that I agree with True Gamer of course, just thought I wouldn't point that out.
Wow... :|
If you truly believe SFIV and NBA2k9 are the only reason to own consoles, you might want to change your username.

True. However, I pointed out Rock Band to distinguish from Audiosurf, which, while a rhythm game, is clearly not the same kind of game as Rock Band. There are a few different kinds of rhythm game (DDR, PaRappa, etc.), but Rock Band and GH:WT are practically a genre unto themselves.lmao lmao
those games can only be played on consoles for the BEST experience .
And why no need for a console ? A $200 xbox 360 can satisfy your gaming needs just as well as a $1000 PC can.

As a sub-genre, the peripheral based rythm games are rather underrepresented on the PC. This is probably due to the social nature of Rock Band and GH, and the generally(I said generally, so don't complain) solo experience of PC gaming. The two don't match well. I doubt many people would crowd around a PC to play RB anyway.

how so exactly? I can just use my 360 controller.. Then again 360 controller sucks for fighters, PS3 controller then which would make your point valid!
So because PC gets a boring, uninspired, rehashed sports game, and one ugly-looking fighting game, that means there's no need for consoles?

This is like saying that because the 360 has Phantasy Star Online and FF11, it is the ultimate MMO machine and is equal with the PC in that genre.
I don't have any need for consoles as it is. Never have had a need for consoles. Been playing essentially only PC since 1990 when i started gaming at age 6. :)
SFIV and NBA2k9 is just icing on the cake. I just noticed 2k9 is $20 on PC and $60 on everything else. :shock:
Wait, did we just highly value NBA and then call SF4 a godly game?
What about stuff like Final Fantasy? Or you know, the tons of games the pc doesn't have. lol
Ok there is emulators that can be put on the pc to play console games. There is Jrpg and fighting games on the pc it's just not popular in the west. You will find them more in aisa. Pc gaming has every genre known to man.
Holo there is holo on pc it's just that gears of war,holo,fable are not popular. Pc gamers have so meny games that those games are pale compared to the other games.
blackdreamhunk
you make it sound like you can play current games. Emus only are working for the N64/ Ps1 and lower. They really dont have anything working yet besides those.
But seriously, dont try to downplay those games. It's called people bought a 360 for them wanted it, they're just designed for the console, and people just pirate their pc games 99% of the time
