There's a word for that...

I'm no manticore.

They smell.

Steam isn't all of PC gaming, not even close

That said, a lot of "PC Gamers" don't even have GPU's, they have cheap pre builts, so i wouldn't call them PC gamers, they play LOL/DOTA 2, maybe some Team Fortress 2, but thats it

Exactly.

On a different note: I see you're playing MtG.
How are you liking it ?

I used to play back in the day, takes me back.

Handing these out to all the owners of super rigs here on SW :D

I didn't take the survey...

It's optional.

[QUOTE="rjdofu"] Anyone can have a steam account :|Spartan070

The stupid thing coming from Steam, is that they don't acknowledge that there is so many different types of gamer on the PC and that they themselves have so many games that don't require high end or even mid range PCs.

So if i'm not a proper gamer on the PC, i'll still get the best CPU I can, but i'm not going to waste money on an expensive graphics card.

And also it's quite possible non gamers use Steam as they do software as well.

It's not too bad, but I prefer 2013. Agro decks everywhere and the balance is even worse, lol, but I'm not playing competitively so it's still quite fun. rjdofu

I used to play it with my friends.
Loved frustrating them with my Blue Ninja decks :P

I did enter a tournament once, never again...
Those people get a little too serious.

Not many PC games require high end rig

Yeah because with this past generation being so long and the Xbox 360 and PS3 holding the bottom line for years, there hasn't been a mandatory reason to upgrade from what gets the job done.ShadowDeathX

This... furthermore, neither the PS4 and X1 are released at this time. After they hit the market and games become more demanding, won't be long before an average gaming PC outmatches a next gen console.

:lol: According to Steam, my wife's entry-level laptop (which I sometimes use to do some retro-gaming with old Civ or HoM&M games) is a gaming PC.

Meanwhile, PC gamers play on gaming PCs, which make even so-called "next-gen" consoles look like horse dung in comparison.

Still, it's a blast to see how hard the consolites NEED to believe their hardware is top notch. Always makes my day! ;)

Same, and I suppose this could also affect the results, as generally, more experienced PC owners tend to stay away from Internet surveys.

ouch thats gotta hurt,

Crysis spammage incoming!

The dual-core joke you've been running with? Yeah, that doesn't mean what you think it means. The number is actually smaller fortunately for you though lol.

Also..you are to talk, how many cows and lemmings will have next-gen consoles by the end of the year? 5%? Lol.

[QUOTE="whiskeystrike"]

[QUOTE="Spartan070"] Won't matter, those pics will only be from the 47% :lol:Spartan070

The dual-core joke you've been running with? Yeah, that doesn't mean what you think it means. The number is actually smaller fortunately for you though lol.

Well yeah but the actual percentage of people who have rigs to run games like Crysis at the settings we see screenshots taken from is probably under 5%. 47% would be quite impressive actually.

I'm upgrading soon so it won't be a problem.

Never needed a high end pc to play console ports or any of Valve's games.

I wonder how many of that 47% are console gamers on their mum and dads PCs?

Sadly my dear fellows, the Playstation 4 and XboxOne could be twice as powerful and it would still lack the sophisticated nature of pc games. Yea, your overscripted movies look better, well done. Get back to me when you have something with the actual depth of a pc game. Silly billys.

Don't see what the big Hub Bub is about, my PC is still Duel Core and it gets the job done (Mind you she is 6 years old now :?) PC Gamers haven't needed to upgrade for awhile.

My old dell had a quad core lol, can't believe there are that many dual cores still out there. :)
