Why is it that hermits believe that they are somehow elitests'? That they look down upon consoles and in many threads say "It doesn't matter PC is still the best. Let me give some facts that prove that the PC isn't dominating consoles in any way. Actually its the other way around. Lets compare the PC vs the 360 in the last 12 months.

360- http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp

66 games rated over 75%

45 AA's

9 AAA's

PC- http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp

32 games rated over 75%

20 AA's

5 AA's

Im sure i will hear many hermits claim that the "standards are higher on PC and how many games that are on PC would score much higher if they were on consoles. Sorry hermits thats completely false. If that is the case then why do games that appear on the 360 and PC that are basically identical in content recieve the same score?

examples

Bioshock PC(95%) Xbox 360 (95%) so much for higher standards lol

The Orange Box PC(96%) Xbox 360 (96%) why do they score identical? because they are the same game and are identical on both consoles except someone with a sweet pc can get slightly better graphics.

The PC is a great gaming platform but it IS NOT as dominant as it used to be.

Hermits need to realize that the PC isn't dominant over consoles.

You're just like every other Cow around, I love my PS3 and MGS4, but what did they give Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank, Heavenly Sword, and yes even Liar?

You come crawling to Gamespot when it comes to MGS4, but slap it in the face when it comes to everything else, talk about having double standards.

You don't have to apologize to hermits for the PC not being the best, TC. That's because it is.

In case you haven't noticed, we use GS scores only (according to the official rules of SW). I'd rather not use GS scores myself, but that's the way it is and we have to stick to it, otherwise it's not a proper debate.

And GS scores state one thing: That the PC completely and utterly demolishes the consoles. :)

Also, Bioshock and The Orange Box (especially this game) are superior on PC. Same goes for the vast majority of multiplats, so scoring the same still means that the PC has higher standards.

You know what I also love when in the PC reviews of games they clearly say the PC version better than the consoles counter part. YOu know whats even funnier. When a multiplat game on PC scores lower than the console version and all the console fanboys says look at the score. Yet in the review of the PC version they will clearly say the PC version is better. That doesnt get old either.

Not really.

Higher standards are true. Since you have like an entire decade of games you need to compare modern games to the past games. There's a reason why console ports usually don't sell well on PC. Because to PC gamers, they're nothing new.

Fact-Fallout 3 has better graphics on the PC

Fact-Far Cry 2 has much better graphics on PC

Fact-Consoles lack mmos and are terrible at RTSes

Fact-Diablo 3 anyone?

Fact-The vast majority of genres for games are better played for PC.

Why is it that Microsoft and Sony themselves reference gamerankings and metacritic. Many video game developers give bonuses to employees if a game scores high on gamerankings or metacritic. I doubt any developer would say "Alright guys if our game gets a good score on gamespot you get bonuses". Sorry nope efic fail for you

I can imagine you haveing a real life conversation with someone on whether to get a gaming PC or a xbox 360.

You "PC has more higher rated EXCLUSIVES than 360 on gamespot.

Other person "well i really don't care about just gamespot, I've been looking at average review scores for many of the games and the 360 has more and better games than PC"

You "But this is gamespo... oh wait this is the real world, where the quality of a game doesn't revolve around 1 reviewers score"

Hermits already comenced massive Damage Control ITT : ((

They say only G$ scores count when the reviews have already long been discovered to be bought. Big self-pwn here, hermits. Plus no one comes here for G$reviews, LOL

GameRankings gets flamed but it really is the only unbiased source for general opinion on games.

On topic: Technically the PC platform CAN be the best, but the Dev's often don't much effort into it, thats why it really only has two major dev's, Blizzard and Valve.

Consoles on the other hand get bigger games, advertisement, cultural influence, etc. simply becuase the compition and poteintial for profit is so much higher on them.

Also if PC Gmaing died, consoles would not be affecting at all for the above factual statement.

And finally, yes, console games are made on computers, but if the PC Platform mattered or was even counted as a Gaming platform, we would see PC versions of every game ever made.

pwn and exit

It's not the hermits that believe such a thing, it's the consolites who throw that term around when describing hermits who believe it.

The PC has the largest AAA/AA/A game ratio this generation, of course that's if you're limiting yourself to reviews to determine quality (idiocy I say). It all comes down to what games you like more, and the fact with a decent PC you can get better performance, a better online setup/community, and more replay value with user-made mods. Not to mention the BC capabilities of the PC are beyond comparison.

HAHAHAHA that's so false. The PC has games that the 360 can only dream of getting. There's a reason people play decade old PC games. And that's because they're so much better on have more quality than modern games. Counterstrike, Bf2, Starcraft are all prime examples.

And no. 360 does not have more games than PC. That's so false I won't even comment on it.

Your ignorant to use gamerankings. I find there scores to be pathetic. Look at some of the reviews they use. Websites include total360, games are fun, da gameboyz, xboxaddict, and talk xbox. Who the hell has ever even heard of these websites???? Yeah didnt think so. But teh teh gamerankings use teh best reviewer sites out there. Hah. Yeah I know it goes both ways. Thats why I am saying because the reviews they use to accumulate those averages are pathetic.

Other person "well i really don't care about just gamespot, I've been looking at average review scores for many of the games and the 360 has more and better games than PC"

You "But this is gamespo... oh wait this is the real world, where the quality of a game doesn't revolve around 1 reviewers score"

sorry buddy reality doesn't change depending on forums your posting on.

Are you seriously saying that the 360 has more quality than PC games?

HAHAHAHA that's so false. The PC has games that the 360 can only dream of getting. There's a reason people play decade old PC games. And that's because they're so much better on have more quality than modern games. Counterstrike, Bf2, Starcraft are all prime examples.

And no. 360 does not have more games than PC. That's so false I won't even comment on it.

If you want you can keep living in the past but the old days of PC dominating consoles is over (atleast in the game department) did you not even look at the lists i posted? Go ahead and use decade old games to say that the PC is best now, that makes sense. Not

Fact-Fallout 3 has better graphics on the PC

Fact-Far Cry 2 has much better graphics on PC

Fact-Consoles lack mmos and are terrible at RTSes

Fact-Diablo 3 anyone?

Fact-The vast majority of genres for games are better played for PC.

Why is it that hermits believe that they are somehow elitests'? That they look down upon consoles and in many threads say "It doesn't matter PC is still the best. Let me give some facts that prove that the PC isn't dominating consoles in any way. Actually its the other way around. Lets compare the PC vs the 360 in the last 12 months.

360- http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp

66 games rated over 75%

45 AA's

9 AAA's

PC- http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/simpleratings.asp

32 games rated over 75%

20 AA's

5 AA's

Im sure i will hear many hermits claim that the "standards are higher on PC and how many games that are on PC would score much higher if they were on consoles. Sorry hermits thats completely false. If that is the case then why do games that appear on the 360 and PC that are basically identical in content recieve the same score?

examples

Bioshock PC(95%) Xbox 360 (95%) so much for higher standards lol

The Orange Box PC(96%) Xbox 360 (96%) why do they score identical? because they are the same game and are identical on both consoles except someone with a sweet pc can get slightly better graphics.

The PC is a great gaming platform but it IS NOT as dominant as it used to be.

Hermits need to realize that the PC isn't dominant over consoles.

Why is it that Microsoft and Sony themselves reference gamerankings and metacritic. Many video game developers give bonuses to employees if a game scores high on gamerankings or metacritic. I doubt any developer would say "Alright guys if our game gets a good score on gamespot you get bonuses". Sorry nope efic fail for you

Your ignorant to use gamerankings. I find there scores to be pathetic. Look at some of the reviews they use. Websites include total360, games are fun, da gameboyz, xboxaddict, and talk xbox. Who the hell has ever even heard of these websites???? Yeah didnt think so. But teh teh gamerankings use teh best reviewer sites out there. Hah. Yeah I know it goes both ways. Thats why I am saying because the reviews they use to accumulate those averages are pathetic.

These are gamespot rankings. If you don't like it, then tough. Leave and go to another game forum. Here in system wars, gamespot, reviews by gamespot are what count the most.

I agree- I think it's ridiculous that arguments are limited to Gamespot simply because this is a Gamespot forum. You really need to look at the industry average. How many people judge a movie on a single review?

in case you guys havent figured out how exacly he cheated yet.....

he only used the games that had 20 or more reviews....and thus, games like...

http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/942952.asp?q=galactic

which recieved universal high scores (and got AAA on GS) were not included because they were to niche.

Fact-Fallout 3 has better graphics on the PC

Fact-Far Cry 2 has much better graphics on PC

Fact-Consoles lack mmos and are terrible at RTSes

Fact-Diablo 3 anyone?

Fact-The vast majority of genres for games are better played for PC.

XEviscerateX

For FallOut 3 and Far Cry 2, hermits will just cry about them being water-down console games just like Oblivion/Bioshock despite these games breaking new grounds and being completely awesome.

Consoles do lack MMO's and RTS's but those are the only genres PC excels at and hasn't had them taken away by consoles.

The vast majority of genres are better on console,or at least with a gamepad, not the old KB/M.

PC has so much potential however, but the money is not there to be made.

FarCry2 lead platform is PC. The PC version has been in development for a lot longer than the consoles thus thats why its the lead platform. Fallout 3 looks terrible. Sorry theres nothing there that would make me buy it.

Why can't hermits debate thefacts i laid out. I do agree that the PC used to dominate consoles but in the last 19 months it is a fact that it has had less quality games than the 360. gink101


If by "facts," you mean a collective count of various opinions, then no consoles have not had more "quality" games.

It's the same with any thread trying to prove a console or platform is worse than another, you're basing it solely off of the opinions of others, and thus it is subjective. If you're going to argue facts as to what game is better, play the games first, compare their strengths and weaknesses (of course genre relative), and come back with a detailed analysis rather than a simplistic tally that proves nothing other than your counting prowess.

PC gaming is a failure. Most PC gamers have no respect to the platform because they pirate. nVidiaGaMer

Wow, this piracy garbage is really going too far.

Console piracy is as rampant as PC piracy... you just don't notice it because it happens outside of the United States.

I'm a PC gamer and I buy all my games. I however refuse to buy and most importantly play games released by developers with DRM, like Mass Effect (at least on PC) and Spore.

Get your head out of the dirt and stop lapping up the "piracy numbers" droppings off of Crytek's highchair.

Consoles are for gaming and PCs are for doing homework, ordering stuff, etc.

Your a disgrace to Nvidia....then what's my nvidia geforce 8800 GT 512 mb made for?
