You need to be a computer technician to get half the games even running on PC

Cool story Bro

It's not the device you use that makes you a dumb ass.

It's proclaiming loyalty to a device that makes you a dumb ass.

And even then the games are riddled with bugs and crash all the time

Seriously, you could pay full price for a game like I did with Arkum City, meet the requirements, and still not have the game work on your rig because of some compatibility issue.

PC gaming is abysmal.

.1/10,

this topic lacks originality and is a rehash of the same pc bashing topics that you see on system wars on a daily basis

liked: the topic title, it was worth a chuckle

disliked: spelling, shortness, the obviousness of the topics intention

overall id say that this topic had room to improve, if only it would have been polished a little more it could have been a contender, but as it sits its just another topic that will fall to the wayside

You somewhat agree?

What does that even mean? That there could be issues with a game?

Well, duh. No one disagrees with that. But not only is the same true for consoles (look at the xbox 360 and PS3 issues with Skyrim as on recent example out of hundreds), but the implicaiton that ALL games have a TON of issues and that only someone who can troublshoot PC's can actually play any Pc games is beyond retarded.

PC gaming = spending half the time configuring. console gaming = pick up and play.rasengan2552

complete, utter, ignorant, bull$hit.

It took me all of 1 minute to configure Skyrim. Now I cna come home and be playing in 3 seconds flat, while console gamers need to wait for the console to boot, wait for the disc to load and wait (eternally) for the level to load.

PC is MORe convinient half the time than any console.

PC gaming = spending half the time configuring. console gaming = pick up and play.rasengan2552

That's a gross over-exaggeration. I booted up The Witcher 2 after not playing in months. Jumped in. Started playing.

[QUOTE="mitu123"]

[QUOTE="lowe0"] Yes, but the value of freedom in gaming is pretty subjective. I'd rather trade it for ease of use.lowe0

There is a key distinction to be made here. YES, PC gamers are generally more intelligent with technology. NO, I don't spend more than .00001% of my gaming time tinkering. PEBCAK, look it up!Haberman_13

Right along with those ID-10T errors! (better when just spoken)

Wait so you are running CUTTING edge technology. A multi-monitor setup and a multi-GPU setup.

This is LIGHTYEARS ahead of consoles.

It's essentially new tech, even though the main systems have been there for a while, new architecture means new tech.

And you already know that new, cutting edge tech is going to have issues. This is ALWAYS true. Hell, looka t the xbox 30 upon release with it's 40% failure rate.

You know with an SLI system you will be waiing for an SLi profile. You know with a multi-monitor system, you need to check if the devs took eyefinity/whatever Nvidia's tech is into account.

So your experience is not avergae PC gamer's experience. And typically people like you and me know that cutting edge means a bit fo a hassle every so often.

It boggles my mind how someone willing to dump money ona multi-monitor, multi GPU Pc gmaing setup cna hate on the platform so much.

Totally masochistic attitude :)

Not sure if OP is a compliment aimed towards PC gamers' intelligence and patience.

Why do you buy games for PC? You seem to favour consoles why even bother buying for PC?

I think that's undeniable. Hence why PC gamers are knowledgable and feel superior to console peasants :P
