Did you really just say this? lol

It's fine to game on consoles, I even own a 360, but what do you consider maximum resolution? Since most games tout 1080p, I would expect that's it, but almost no games run at 1080p, most FPS run at 640p or 720p and even then they don't always have great framerate.

Indeed. I wonder why there's a huge thread over at Beyond 3D devoted to PS3/360 games that do not reach 720P. Hell, Mass Effect and Oblivion (360) are two of the worst performing games I've ever played.

[QUOTE="wooooode"]PC's lack a solid input device. Keyboards are garbage for games. I prefer a controller with pressure sensitive buttons to allow me to have better input.foxhound_fox


It's your lucky day! Logitech offers gamepads and joysticks, the wired 360 gamepad self-installs on Windows PC's, and with a Blutooth adapter, you can use the 360 wireless pad, Dualshock 3 and Wiimote/Nunchuk.

The PC gives gamers options and doesn't force them to use any one particular input device.

1. PC does offer things in all those genres, but how often are they AAA on consoles compared to PCs? Yah?

2. Nintendo's games are very special.

3. Laptop or netbook? Ok, bigger than both the DS and PSP by far, and if you want to use it in a car or on a bus then you just give up the use of the mouse? Like I said. PSP and DS are better for portable games.

4. I own a custom PC, but if I wanted to play games the DS is a cheaper option, the PSP is, the Wii is, and the 360 is.

5. PCs do not trump absolutely everything about consoles and handhelds. They have more power, and more features sure, but the convenience of a gaming console being ready to play absolutely every game that comes out for it for years and years without worry of having to upgrade is nice, and consoles offer games that the PC does not have.

1. AAA scores are just opinions. I personally don't agree with most of the AAA scores given out this generation to most games.
2. More opinion. I don't think Nintendo's recent offerings are special at all... quite bland and nothing like the old days in fact.
3. And can a DS or PSP surf the internet on a full screen with no zooming? You must not know anything about modern laptops... they come with something called a touchpad. They've been around for probably a good decade now.
4. You won't be playing the massive library of PC games that spans over two decades on your DS.
5. It does. It offers the most customizability and most varied selection of quality games. The "convenience" of a gaming console is being replaced with a gimped PC. Now you have to download game updates to play online, system updates in order to login and pay-to-play downloadable content that has always been free on PC is sucking people's wallets dry.

Consoles offer things PC doesn't have... but they are not "better" overall platforms. It just goes to show by the modern trend shift towards PC-oriented features being integrated into consoles just how versatile and customizable the PC actually is.

Not to mention, PC's do far more than just play games.

feelin a lil fiesty this early friday morning arent we foxhound, haha :P

Wow... being hypocrite is cool now? As if there's no console fanboys... please.

everyone is a PC fanboy. So that limits to noone being a console fanboy? Wow, thanks for the insight. I think I learned something.

What? Do you ever make sens?

I'll repeat what I said... Are you saying you never see consolite doing theses threads?

I'm saying Hermits feel left out. So they make these threads. consolites don't feel left out of SW because they almost have something to debate about. Unlike hermits, because as we all know. We all own PCs and we know how great they can be. So why the **** talk about what everyone has. hmmm? idk. hermits feel leftout of SW. Don't you agree?

AAA scores are just opinions, but it's pretty obvious which genres are better on which platforms.

Opinion yes, but I like them, and so do millions of others. It's reason enough to own at least one console.

A touchpad? No, I'm completely oblivious to those. Are you able to play FPS games with them really well? :roll:

I won't be, but I don't really care. Like I said, I own my own custom gaming PC just so I have that option. Not going to be blind to the upsides that consoles and handhelds have, however.

So, when Crysis came out what was the cost of a PC capable of playing it on max settings? And on highest resolution too? Double...triple the cost of the 360? Not only that, but the 360, and PS3 will both have games that run at a great framerate at the maximum resolution till the end of their lifespan. No need for upgrading as I said.

Consoles are not better, agreed, but there are still some things on consoles that are not available on PCs, and until then I personally plan to own consoles alongside my PC. I'm not just going to give up console gaming just because Crysis has the best graphics.

treedoor

lol what are you talking about
majority console games run at piss poor framerates @ or less than 30 fps(with the exception of call of dutys and a couple others), and subpar 720p or half ass 640p resolutions, and im not quite sure about the ps3, but the 360 has certainly hit its technical limit


im not tryin to put them down or anything, im just stating facts here, i personally really dont care about teh graphics/resolution, but i do care about framerate, since a poor framerate can really have an affect on the game(i personally beleive all games should be programmed to run at atleast 60 fps, no matter what measures of graphical aspects that need to be brought down)

although i will admit cosnles do provide me with my Jrpg's i much love, but...current gen consoles jrpg line ups are half ass compared to ps2/ps1/snes

and platformers...sure they were certainly provided at a much higher rate than the pc...

previous gens!, the only true platformers i can think of atm this gen are the ratchet & clank for ps3 and braid for xbla(no i dont consider the new banjo game a true platformer, a good game though), which is quite sad since platformers are one of the biggest and deepest roots for consoles

wii wins this gen ,, ,,

you all can bring up the recent 2 weeks worth of ps3 japan sells all you want but the fact of the matter is , japan is much smaller then us, we are 3 /4s of wiis total 50 million sales,

other territors sold from 4-9 million units (japan being the most of them )

so ya , , us is where its all at japan is getting smaller and smaller,

as for pc, i dont think so ,

if you pay 1000 for a pc, your wasting money by the pound ,

because you still update it every month , get viruses and what not lol

consoles can not get viruses

they dont need expensive update to run , they dont need to be touched for as long as you own it ,

you buy a new one every 5-6 yrs

thats that ,

pc you updgrad upgrade upgrade lol pft,

wiis control is better then pc,

so is ps3 and 360s, much eaiser , to use

ps3 is not king of platformers wii is,

wiis also king of any genre lol ,

ps3 and 360 share games wii dont , lol have fun playing the same games over and over and over again

Why even bring sales argument here?

Some say, you're wasting money on your ferrari... I guess ferrari is not worth it, because pound for pound you lose?

Anyway... what's this misconception...

Viruses, when was the last time you had a virus?

Update when you want...

Controles are matter of opinion... so I think PC K&M is better. How is it hard to use a K&M?

Okay, out of the 50 or so threads in the first page of SW. I counted a total of four PC threads. Including this one, and one was a PC bashing thread. Herms always love to give numbers. Solitare is considerd a game on PC. and there is no need to have a Gaming PC. So in my eyes, everyone is a hermit. Which makes PC gaming neutral. I don't know how to make it simpilar for you to see my view.

You're debating that hermits don't make enough useless threads?

Give numbers??? As in??? What are you talking about...

Euh... so you think gaming PC is only about solitaire and it's not worth it? Your logic FTW!

PC never wins unless you want to go into single categories like who has the best graphics or the best RTS, I'm not saying theres no good games (my top 3 games of all time are pc games)but you know what casuals will always I mean always prefer/game on consoles/hand helds since they are casual friendly.

The first 50 Cent game sold more copies than Psychonauts; that doesn't mean it's a better game. Why anyone would bring up sales in a discussion of quality is beyond me.

A €1000 PC would get you a quad-core, GTX 260 (probably better), 4GB RAM and a big-ass monitor. You would not need to upgrade such a PC for a long time. Throw in the fact that a PC can do far, far more than any console and PC games tend to be cheaper (€30 versus €60 over here) and it eventually balances out.

get viruses and what not lolmariokart64fan
I don't even have an anti-virus. I download AVG every few months to see if I have any and guess what? In the 2 years I've had my laptop I've never gotten one. Not even once.

they dont need expensive update to run , they dont need to be touched for as long as you own it ,

you buy a new one every 5-6 yrs

But they do need €65 games.

Like I said above; if you know what to buy, you can go a long time without having to upgrade.

Good thing we can use a 360 controller with a PC.

Here's what PC has over consoles:

- Hardware customization/upgradability

-Cheaper games

-Better graphics

-The most games

-Cheaper and easier to develop for (all video-game companies know how to do PC programming)

- Steam

-Game mods

-Better for FPS, RTS and RPG

-PC can be used for things other than gaming

Well lets see, I think it may start with graphics..

The winner is PC=Crysis and its add on...

Lets move one on to different type of game play//

RPG

FPS

RTS

Puzzle

Board Game

Free downloadable games that you pay for on PSN or LIve = PC they have more and and are better..

So what is left fornon PC systems?

Well it can't be online because PC wins that to with the ability to do mods without paying..

In the end I say PC is the Winner and all else comes second...

But Really we knew that anyway ..

Flame on

DanBrim1
Well, apart from that being all opinion. I'm sure you're correct. Aprt from some peopel disliking the PC interface, they may also dislike it's online offerings, as it's not as simple (idiotproof) like Xbox Live and PSN, it may be free, and supposedly better, but that's not to say people like it more. For intance. Halo 3 and Killzone 2, my favorite FPS's this gen are on ... that's right, console. RPG'S Lost odyysey Disgaea 3 and Star Ocean are on ... consoles. You have RTS i'll agree with that. Puzzle and board games? Wow ... grasping much?

Preference. I dislike gaming on my PC. Plus, it sucks. Although im upgrading it for Total War soon, but that's it. I have no interest in other titles.

Before anyone else misunderstands this post

I give multiple examples of where a PC doesn't excel. I'm not combining everything together to be an overall better package than a PC. Just certain areas.

Fighting games? No

Platformers? No

JRPGs? No

Side scrollers? No

Better control for games besides FPS? Not really.

No Halo 3, none of Nintendo's lineup.

No portability such as the PSP and DS offer.

More expensive.

Split screen? No

treedoor
no x360 no halo no wii no nintendo cheaper if you have to buy all 3 consoles to compete split screen has terrible support now on consoles.

PC's lack a solid input device. Keyboards are garbage for games. I prefer a controller with pressure sensitive buttons to allow me to have better input.wooooode
keyboard and mouse work much better for anything the involves aiming and the for the rest you plug in your controller and if you really want you can use you controller for shooters.

hell you can use wireless mouse/keyboard also.

plus the pc you dont need to change game disk to play different game.

[QUOTE="mariokart64fan"]Yet platformers have pretty much died out in recent years.

[QUOTE="mariokart64fan"]wiis also king of any genre lol ,RobbieH1234

Except shooters, strategy games, adventure games, racers, simulations and role playing games.

ps3 and 360 share games wii dont , lol have fun playing the same games over and over and over againmariokart64fan
Yet the Wii has by far the weakest library of games.

The level of ignorance that you displayed in that one post is staggering. I can only hope that your other ~7000 posts weren't as laughable.

First of all 2760 dollars for the pc u just mentioned hahah where u buyin ur pc? a prebuilt one from best buy. lol. Secondly ya idiot yes it is a good thing u can use a console controller on a pc.. ever used an emulator? newb. And last but not least... all that work and all you do is look like a huge nerd and a jack off.

It was 700euros, pretty good deal if you ask me. I'm not gonna sell it, I'll be using it for years, like my previous PC;).

I know you were probably too busy typing out that text message alphabet soup reply to actually read my post, but the symbol used before the "1,000" figure was €. Not $. We don't have Best Buy in Europe and neither of your other points make sense.

See you in a week.

Before anyone else misunderstands this post

I give multiple examples of where a PC doesn't excel. I'm not combining everything together to be an overall better package than a PC. Just certain areas.

Fighting games? No

Platformers? No

JRPGs? No

Side scrollers? No

Better control for games besides FPS? Not really.

No Halo 3, none of Nintendo's lineup.

No portability such as the PSP and DS offer.

More expensive.

Split screen? No

The incessant *click* click* click* click* and instead of hearing racial slurrs on Cod4 you get to read them on the General chat when you play WoW. Unless you have ventrillo then you still have to hear it :D

No that we're talking about this anyway. What Video Card would you recommend for me? Has to be reasonable priced.

This continues to be the dumbest argument on system wars. It's all a complete matter of preference if the PC is better or if a console is better. I'm lucky enough to have botha gamingPC and a 360. I personally prefer to play on my 360(except for RTS/Strategy/Western RPG's), for a variety of reasons. Does that automatically make it better than a PC? Of course not, it's just my preference. Please apply this logic to every post on the previous 9 pages, and stop the pathetic elitist BS. These arguments are ignorant as hell on both sides.

Why PC will always lose: you have to upgrade it frequently. I`d rather buy a console for 5 years than purchase a new video card in every 6 months.

Oh, wait, I already did it.

you better be sarcastic, my custom build (Q6600 with a TRUE at 3.6 GHz, 4 gigs of 800 mhz low latency DDR2, radeon HD 4850, 580w PSU, gigabyte P35-DS3L motherboard) is worth less than 800 euros now, and it PWNS that one :|

Six months eh? I've basically had the same rig for almost 2 years now and it's been doing fine and dandy since then. I upgraded my power supply and video card which was a FREE exchange over my old one. So basically after almost 2 years, I spent $50 on an upgrade and that was for my power supply.

I got the same video card for 2 years and still able to max out games. Thanks to watered down console standard, I can keep my video card for the next 2 years without upgrading.

Well lets see, I think it may start with graphics..

The winner is PC=Crysis and its add on...

Lets move one on to different type of game play//

RPG

FPS

RTS

Puzzle

Board Game

Free downloadable games that you pay for on PSN or LIve = PC they have more and and are better..

So what is left fornon PC systems?

Well it can't be online because PC wins that to with the ability to do mods without paying..

In the end I say PC is the Winner and all else comes second...

But Really we knew that anyway ..

Flame on

DanBrim1

sure...i'm not insulting PC games, i'm just saying that both have their place in the market. most PC games don't really interest me all that much. that's not to say they aren't excellent, but they're just not my cup of tea.
