Why do hermits play SW's, when.....

[QUOTE="Inotian"]

It's called SYSTEM wars for a reason. All systems are welcome to fight, even if it's pointless.

System Wars will slowly by slowly start encompassing more mobile gaming too. This is the board for people to just get whatever they want out of their system about any kind of games.

quebec946

if mobile games count

then flash games does too.

I don't think anyone has anything against flash games. All games are permitted to be discussed here. But this is what we stick to. Games and Systems. Anything else is off topic.

A better question would be: why do hermits play SW's when they suck SO BAD at it?

waltefmoney

System Wars, not console wars. Why do consolites feel the necessary need to try to exclude the PC? Could it be because the PC has and always will be the most successful platform in the world? I think so.

Again, system wars. Get over it. It has been stated hundreds of times here by mods and such that the PC is a system. Hence, it's included here. You don't like it, leave.

Yep cause Kelper, Fermi, IvyBridge, SandyBridge, Bulldozer, Piledriver, Southern Islands, and etc are totally not gens for PC

NoodleFighter

Those are not gens...

Only more recent thing that could truly be considered a generational jump in PC hardware could be the introduction of unified shader model...

Yeah good to see you too :)

I just skip over their posts as hermits don't matter to me. Most PS3 gamers will claim a PC counterpart to say they get Left 4 Dead 1 & 2, Alan Wake, Gears of War 3, Minecraft, etc. I just laugh at them and their PS3.

Hermits play SW for the same reason all the others play SW, they have buyers remorse. They have put in so much money and time into their rigs and they are trying to justify it. It's that simple. Hermits are the most over zealous group on here, they show up in threads that have NOTHIHNG to do with PC at all, and they just shout "PC this, PC that".

Psychologicaly speaking, the more money and time one spends on something the harder one will try to justify it. And Hermits have spent the most time and money than the console gamers. In short they regret it, and can't admit it to themselves, so they come to SW the same reason everyone else does. To try and convince themselves that they are happy with their choice.

Only two types of people come here, trolls and stupid fanboys with buyers remorse. I hate this place, don't even know why I even come here. IGN is so much better, and their community is so nice too. Sometimes Greg Miller posts in the forums there, that guy is awesome!

SW Hermits are chevy owners in a bike forum.

You come here because everyone loves you.

I'm pretty sure most see it like this...

---

pc vs. pc

console vs. console

handheld vs. handheld

..for the same reason PSP/3DS fanboys post here.. because it's the SYSTEM WARS. GS doesn't need 3 or 4 "sub-forums" for fanboys to talk about the same topics. ie. "My system is better than yours".

Having said that I don't believe there are any true PC gamers on this forum... as one poster already mentioned. I believe there are console gamers who hide behind the PC and take jabs at *insert console*. A true PC gamer wouldn't feel the need to "defend" or even get involved in a SW's conversation simply because the PC version would trump all (Mods, Free Online, dedicated servers, Cheaper software, Multitasking, ect.. ect..).

..so I guess this really is the console wars forum. :?

Also Bibi i'd read your definitions before you make yourself look like an idiot.

theentirebodyofindividualsbornandlivingataboutthesametime:thepostwargeneration.

Pc can play the same exact games as the other systems at any given generation. How does that NOT make it a generational system.

It's beyond me. Hardware upgrades to current generations of technology. DId you ever think of that? I mean Intel and AMD have had generations of processors, graphics cards and so on.

Because making console peasants look dumb never gets old.SamiRDuran

I don't think people understand, So I'ma try lay it down a little better for you.

Gens. Ie, A video game generation.

Here is a history of video game generations. Please note that no gen, ever, has inlcuded PC. Read them from 1st to 8th gen. Please note the general lack of PCness, and the fact that video game gens are clearly, decided by video game consoles exclusively. A PC, has no gens. It is a constantly evolving piece of hardware, that has no place in video game generations.

System wars - Ie, the concept itself. Not the GS forum.

Take a look at System wars - or 'console wars'. Please note the general lack of PC. Please also note that once again, it is exclusive to video game consoles.

Now, understand the concept. PC is not a part of system wars and never can be. Why? Because it has no generations of hardware. It cannot compete because it does not meet the basic requirement of having a gen to compete in.

Second, why the hell would you want to take part in a competition that you would always win? Why play a metagame that you have no place in?

Pretty much.

I've seen that a lot of self-proclaimed hermits here are actually console fanboys that hide behind PC to pretend they're better than everyone else. kuraimen

lol. You do the same thing to compensate the PS3 library. Please stop with your nonsense.

yes, people will stop talking about pc because you said so, can we go back to reality now?

If you´re not happy with the current state of things here then by all means go to a forum where it´s actually supposed to be just about consoles,because nothing you and the other few little boys say will change what this forum is,ever.

Also PC is involved. It's been discussed to death.

So i'd just

I've seen that a lot of self-proclaimed hermits here are actually console fanboys that hide behind PC to pretend they're better than everyone else and because they're afraid to get owned. Most true hermits don't even care about system wars and they know it's mostly for console fanboys. But many times these phony hermits can't contain their fanboyism so their true nature comes to light but they seem very hypocritical when people actually confront them. kuraimen

damn, youre unprecedentally right about most of the post.

If you´re not happy with the current state of things here then by all means go to a forum where it´s actually supposed to be just about consoles,because nothing you and the other few little boys say will change what this forum is,ever.

Gotta say Bibi if this is a troll thread then god you're freaking amazing.

R4gn4r0k

it is a current gen system.

And at the same time it is a last gen system and a next gen system.

Many people called Wii 'last gen' does that mean it had no place in SW ?

Why'd you even bother making this topic? I'm sure you predicted 99% of the responses you'd get in a topic of this nature.

Anyway, "hermits" play SW because PC is a legit gaming platform. That's all there is to it, Bibi. :3

Typical console topic : 360 vs PS3

360 fanboy : "360 has bigger library than PS3"

PS3 fanboy : "I can play that library on PC, only exclusives matter"

wtf

----

360 fanboy : "360 has better multiplats than PS3"

PS3 fanboy : "PC has better multiplats than 360"

wtf

Dudes this is supposed to be CONSOLE vs CONSOLE dicussion, why you dragging PC's into it?

Especially when you don't even PC game.

Oh and don't get me started about how Hermits EMULATE consolites and try to be like them.

Like "C'mon we're cool too! We're cool too!"

Hermits try to figure out what "gen" they're in and they think Flight Sim is "PC exclusive" like there's some big company out there going "You know what, we need Civilization 6 to come out earlier, we gotta beat the PS3."

When will you understand that YOU ARE NOT PART OF THE CONSOLE WORLD.

Gens and exclusives do not f*cking apply to you.

Kevin Butler does not apply to you.

E3 does not apply to you.

None of the schit that console owners talk about applies. to. you.

----

Here's what happens every gen.

Sony, Nintendo and MS all take a big dump and call it "advanced technology"

Console fanboys go to their respective pile of poop and smear it all over their face

PC gamers then wonder why there isn't a PC gaming pile of poop, so they bring shovels, mix it up and smear it all over their faces.

Why?

Because they want to feel excited.

They want to feel like there's an E3 show for them.

They want to feel how consolites feel : excited for their new toy.

But they can't, because Usher isn't dancing on Newegg.com

The most basic requirement to be included in here isn't gens... That's moronic. It's gamessantoron

Because the jelly makes your tears taste sweet.

I agree because hermits often break the rules. If they want their console to be cheap they paste the sh1ttiest cheap rig build ever. But when they want dem graphix they post screen shots from what are obviously not cheap ass models that they would have people believe can do everthing a super rig can do. There are no defined specs or gens there just isn't any way to argue against the merits of a PC because they can just claim to have which ever build suits their argument at a specific moment.

[QUOTE="Lucianu"]

Because it's called System Wars, not Console Wars.

BibiMaghoo

"Console wars", also known as "System wars" is a term used to refer to periods of intense competition for market share between video game console manufacturers.

Because the jelly makes your tears taste sweet.

DraugenCP

I do not mean GS system wars, but actual system wars. It is a war between console generations, PC has nothing to do with it.

BibiMaghoo

PC should be banned from SW's. Technically it already is, it has no place in it. No 'gen' has ever included PC, nor has any gen of system wars. System wars is defined by consoles.BibiMaghoo

Contradict much?
