like most gamers here ive had consoles all my life, this gen ive had the 360 ps3 and now the pc.

this is my opion and please share yours

ps3 - very good console, reliable, multipurpose with its build in bluray drive and sensible. psn isnt the best online service coming last out of the three in my opinion, but it is free.

xbox 360 - cheap but cheerful, not the most refined console, but xbl is a blast and swearing at kids never gets old, but xbl costs money when it should be free.

pc - until recently i always swore by consoles with the pcs i had as a child being dinosaurs and used by all the family, now i have a gaming laptop i think its the best of the 3. first it can be expensive compared to consoles - if you get a decent rig/laptop, but your not held back and can run games in higher details, steam is a excellent service with tons and tons of games and being able to jump in games with your friends just like xbl,psn. teamspeak lets me communicate with my friends and feel part of a community. yes i know pc's can get virus's and are less child friendly/ more open to threats. but if you have a decent amount of money and want the best i say p.c.

I hope this doesnt sound like im trolling, because im not. i just want to know if anyone else has been in my shoes and has the same opionion with me.

please share

and thanks for reading

If I had the money I'd have both a gaming PC and PS3. But for now I think PS3 is good enough for me. It has more interesting exclusives IMO than PC and any other system anyway.

I think the excluives are a matter of taste.

Technically the PC has the most highly rated exclusives than any of the consoles.

Unfortunately many console gamers think that if there isn't a behemoth corporaiton spending hudreds of millions on marketing, somehow those games aren't "as good".

Complete and utter BS.

There's also the issue that most multi-plats are simply better on the PC, and in the future multi-plats are what we're goig to see more and more of. Developers will not focus on a single platform anymore there's too much money at stake, specially as the cost of makign and marketing games continues to increase.

Sure, the consoles will spend on exclusives, but it will be only 1 or 2 franchises. Everything else will run on PC, PS4, Nextbox, etc.

That about sums it up

I might have considered a gaming PC too, but with all of Crysis 1-2, Witcher 2, Diablo 3 etc now on my xbox 360, i dont see any reason why i should miss Gears 1-2-3, Fable, Halo, Project Draco, Dark Souls, FF13-2, Skyrim DLC, Mass Effect 3 with Kinect, Alan wake, Lost Odyssey etc etc that PC does not get

Ps3 - Great for singleplayer 360 - Great multiplayer, with friends and as a social platform PC - Costs way to much more than consoles, especially considering it has no real exclusives anymore (Imho), and the only advantages are slightly higher definition and can run at higher specs. Not worth the fact that it costs about 2000% of the price to buy and maintain compared to consoles (IMO)

Actually 360 is the best for single player if you count the PC/360 only games and XBLA titles, by far

Witcher 2 and Bastion for instance

Those exclusives are barely the tip of the iceberg wen you're talking about a PC. For me, they are mearly 1% of the reason why i have a PC in the first place, and i'm strictly talking about gaming. Recently, i found out what pinnacles you can trully achieve with this system that supports so much creativity.

Well,that's your opinion. I have an opinion too.I think halo,fable and forza suck. But opinions don't change the fact that a system has high scoring games.And the PC wins in this category.

When is this consolite ignorant Bs going to stop?

How many times does the fact that PC hardware does not cost much more than a console and that PC has the largest number of higly rated exclusives going to have to be repeated before trolls like this guy stop spewing their verbal diarrhea?

This guy claims that gmaing PC's cost, what was that again? 2,000% MORE!

I mean common! An xbox 250GB costs $300, according to this guy a gaming PC costs: $6,000!

Look, for your edicifation: a gaming PC costs from $350 for an entry gaming rig (AMD's APU) to $1200 for a really high end PC. Get your facts straight.

AND we pay a lot less for games than console gamers. On Steam sales alone, just this year I've saved HUNDREDS of dollars over a console gamer buying the same number of games I did.

So PC gaming can be CHEAPER than console gaming, depending on how many games you pick up, AND we have the highest number of highly rated exclusives of any platform.

Also, the difference in graphics is NOT just a "slight increase in resolution". Only someone incredibly clueless on the reality of the graphics gap would say somehting like this.

I bet console fans are going to call this post a example of elitism, even though everything here is irefutable fact. It pisses me off a bit, but hell, nothing to do about it.

The problem is that PC has nothing like Dark Souls and yet xbox 360 has both Dark Souls and Witcher 2

It's also praised for it's games. How can it be lacking good games when it has the most high strong exclusives this generation? Why is this not registering with some people?

Heh, you can built a fully functional console out of a PC, with more capabilities then current generation consoles.

I know this guy on youtube that built one in a NES case.

No. MARKETING is what makes it succesful.

PS3 and MS spending billions of dollars selling the system to people like you.

If it wasn't for all that marketing, and subsidizing of their hardware NO ONe would have bought a console.

Think about that, now think about this: PC does not have ANYONE spending a damn dime marketing it as a gaming platform, and even so, there are more people on Steam than there are xbox 360's out there.

That's how amazing the platform is.

If your trying to get a gaming laptop, you're not doing it wrong. Laptops will always cost more than a desktop. And the only reason I'll get a console is for exclusives. There is no other reason for me to get consoles.

Different gamers love different games. Are action games (a bit broad but whatever) more important than RTS or racing games?

I bought my 360 before my PC

My 360 cost me under £200

My PC cost me £1000 (with some rounding)

My PC, cannot run modern games, it is obselete within less than 5 years.

Now, I did exaggerate for effect, that's a common thing in the english language, but I don't feel like calculating the exact amount maintaining a high spec PC would cost me.

Lets just say: for my PC to last as long as my 360, I would have to invest a lot more into it.

I can't be bothered to argue with you about "highest rated exclusives" Because quite frankly, I don't care. I have my own opinion.

How is what I said ignorent in any way, trying to convince someone pc gaming "doesn't cost much more" is ridiculous.

Especially since unless you are paying at good amount more, and consistently upgrading, you aren't actually getting a significant, if any, graphics improvement since you have to put the game on the bottom specs

My 360, with no requirement to upgrade, still has a good 3 or 4 years left in it. And you want to tell me a PC is as good value as that, a £200 pound piece of kit that has allowed me to play almost every new IP and multiplat that's been released in the past years. And the extra framerate on PC? I don't care. The higher definition? Guess what, I don't care. All I care about, is that it looks good enough for the gameplay to be enjoyable, anything more is a welcome extra.

Now I know this, wait for it, because I tried maintaining a good PC, but guess what....I couldn't afford it. I'm not basing my opinion from what I've read on the internet bro.

And gamer's don't love MMO's, strategy games, FPS's, Adventure games, indie games, and role-playign games?

Really, all you got is a single genre, which is still WELL represented ont he PC and only missing a few console exclusives? That really is all you console gamers have, isn't it?

So which is it? a Ps3 or an xbox 360? I mean you uys were JUST complaining about the cost of a gaming PC, now you're tlkaimg about TWO $300 consoles.

Interesting.

PC is a great for gaming . No ones complaining about PC's capability .

BUT WHERE ARE THE EXCLUSIVE ACTION GAMES ON PC ?

All PC got is lots of indie , rts , mmo's . Gamers love action games , where are they ?

Starcraft II sales are quite a bit higher than the sales of Uncharted 2.


LoL has 15 million registered users with more than 1 million unique players playing it each day.

YOU might love action games, but you can't speak for everyone.

PC has plenty of action games as well, but whatever.

Red orchestra 2, CSS, DoD, Killing Floor, Terraria, Arma 2, EYE Divine Cybermancy, STALKER, etc. would like to talk.

I agree with CSS and Stalker . Even if i consider all them great action games on PC , aren't they very few compared to console action games ?

Tell me, what exactly do you have? Halo, CoD, Battlefield, Uncharted, and Gears. Those are the top games, and 2 of them are multiplat.

Really, all you got is a single genre, which is still WELL represented ont he PC and only missing a few console exclusives? That really is all you console gamers have, isn't it?

Action games are more popular amongst gaming community .

Everyone wants to play Crysis , Gears , Uncharted over Shogun , World of Warcraft . Correct me if i'm wrong .

Once PC had vast action exclusives ( Half Life , Wolfenstein , Doom , Farcry ) ... nowadays action games are releasing for PC as multiplats .

[QUOTE="Overlord93"]Ps3 - Great for singleplayer 360 - Great multiplayer, with friends and as a social platform PC - Costs way to much more than consoles, especially considering it has no real exclusives anymore (Imho), and the only advantages are slightly higher definition and can run at higher specs. Not worth the fact that it costs about 2000% of the price to buy and maintain compared to consoles (IMO)Overlord93

When is this consolite ignorant Bs going to stop?

How many times does the fact that PC hardware does not cost much more than a console and that PC has the largest number of higly rated exclusives going to have to be repeated before trolls like this guy stop spewing their verbal diarrhea?

This guy claims that gmaing PC's cost, what was that again? 2,000% MORE!

I mean common! An xbox 250GB costs $300, according to this guy a gaming PC costs: $6,000!

Look, for your edicifation: a gaming PC costs from $350 for an entry gaming rig (AMD's APU) to $1200 for a really high end PC. Get your facts straight.

AND we pay a lot less for games than console gamers. On Steam sales alone, just this year I've saved HUNDREDS of dollars over a console gamer buying the same number of games I did.

So PC gaming can be CHEAPER than console gaming, depending on how many games you pick up, AND we have the highest number of highly rated exclusives of any platform.

Also, the difference in graphics is NOT just a "slight increase in resolution". Only someone incredibly clueless on the reality of the graphics gap would say somehting like this.

I bought my 360 before my PC

My 360 cost me under £200

My PC cost me £1000 (with some rounding)

My PC, cannot run modern games, it is obselete within less than 5 years.

Now, I did exaggerate for effect, that's a common thing in the english language, but I don't feel like calculating the exact amount maintaining a high spec PC would cost me.

Lets just say: for my PC to last as long as my 360, I would have to invest a lot more into it.

I can't be bothered to argue with you about "highest rated exclusives" Because quite frankly, I don't care. I have my own opinion.

How is what I said ignorent in any way, trying to convince someone pc gaming "doesn't cost much more" is ridiculous.

Especially since unless you are paying at good amount more, and consistently upgrading, you aren't actually getting a significant, if any, graphics improvement since you have to put the game on the bottom specs

My 360, with no requirement to upgrade, still has a good 3 or 4 years left in it. And you want to tell me a PC is as good value as that, a £200 pound piece of kit that has allowed me to play almost every new IP and multiplat that's been released in the past years. And the extra framerate on PC? I don't care. The higher definition? Guess what, I don't care. All I care about, is that it looks good enough for the gameplay to be enjoyable, anything more is a welcome extra.

Now I know this, wait for it, because I tried maintaining a good PC, but guess what....I couldn't afford it. I'm not basing my opinion from what I've read on the internet bro.

Ahh yes, the cryis of the "poor" consoel gamer. The same people that tend to spend hundreds on more than one console, hudreds more on plastic guitars and other peripherals.

Well, let me clue you in a little bit since you are WAY behind the times.

Modern PC hardware does not cost as much as it did back in the early 2000's. PC hardware is EXPONENTIALLY more powerful than a console, so you don't have to spend much at all to get better results. And you do NOT have to constantly pdate your rig, unless you incredibly out there definition of "constantly" is every 4-5 years.

And powerful hardware is MORE than just graphics. It's better physicis, AI, responsiveness and performance.

PC is great , BUT PC dosen't ve any great games in the ranks of console games . PC had few exclusives games unfortunately all released for consoles .

indzman

i think that was very true up until about 1995...

after that, PC games were absolutely as good, if not better than the majority of console games.... especially when it comes to replayability and game longevity, so many PC games can consume months upon months of ur life

Ok, I will correct you.

There are over 12 million WOW gamers.... how many people bought Uncharted again? Star Craft 2 outsold both Crysis 2 and uncharted several times over.

So no. Sorry, but the numbers don't lie. Games like WOW ARE more popular than any of the console exclusives you named.

And using your consolite logic: more popular = better, right?

Oh and Shogun 2: Total War sold about 3 times as much as Demon Souls!

IT looks like gamers actually PREFER Strategy, MMO's indie games, and RPG's :)

"Everyone"? Im a Pc gamer and i disliked Crysis. It just wasnt fun. Back when i owned a ps3 and an xbox, i played gears AND Uncharted. Gears had a short story that prided itself on big guys and chainsaws. Uncharted prided itself with repetitive gunfights and "WOAH!" Explosions. WoW is a terrible game imo.

WoW has 12 million subscribers. SC2 sold over 5 million copies by now. That wouldn't have happened if everybody wanted to play 'action games'.

He also mentions indie games, Indie sensation Minecraft has 11 million registered users and over 3 million purchases. That's more than games like Killzone 3, Ressistance 3, Infamous 2 will get.

CaseyWegner

I think Wii + PC is prbbaly the BEST platform combo a gamer could have this gen.

PS3 + PC is a close second, IMHO.

Xbox360 + PC share too much library, IMHO. there'd be no reason to play the 360 verison of most titles.

I really wouldn't recommend console only or even PC only. People who consider themselves gamers, think of this as a hobby. And you're missing out if all you playa re console sgames or if all you play are PC games.

Everyone who is hardcore enough to come on a gaming forum like this SHOULD be playing games on BOTH platforms. That's what has me scratching my head.
