Who the @#$% is Dr. Tre? lmao. Why would anyone care what he has to say? This thread is stupid. Console gaming makes over $100 billion a year. It used to make a lot more then that, but the economy hasn't been good to console gaming that past 5 yrs. Hopefully that will change next-gen. As for PC gaming, it's still relevant. Don't listen to these fools on YouTube.People like DrTre say that PC gaming is irrelevant, yet the PC gaming industry made at least $20 Billion during last year.
A video about it from BlackB0nd:

LOL.

I think Yves Guillemot %'s are wrong. Yes, I think more people still pirate PC games then they buy, but the % is probably closure to 65-70%. It also depends on the game as well.he is speaking the truth. PC gamers are pirates and PC gaming only makes money off its social games.

For real gamers it is irrelevant
Who wants to play generic MMOs for the masses, copy/pasted startegy games we have played a billion times before and 10.000.000 Diablo clones per year ?
PC gaming is a joke right now, all real games are exclusive to or on consoles
Also PC gamers destroy the industry by pirating games and thus things like free to play garbage, DRM, only online SINGLE PLAYER games etc have appeared
The good news is that PS4 is light years ahead of PC with its unique unified design and all developers are shifting to consoles, Witcher 2-3, Diablo 3 were the last forts to fall

slace? I don't really care for diablo 3 though
hahha light years ahead of PC? Do you even have any idea what your even talking about. Oh yea like the xbox360 has any game worth mentioning I mean really Halo and GOW seems to be the only big game going for it and there all the same shit every game. The Wii U has hardly anything coming to it because the only Nintendo has going for it are their handhelds. You forget PC has become the lead platform for cross plat like Watchdog and Dark Souls with the PC architecture for next gen console more games will be available to the PC. I could fairly you know jackshit about pc gaming. We have more games than just MMO and RTS coming out . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlIWJlz6-Eg Keep your shitty shooters I'll be playing Arma 3 a real statical shooter http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxtE8iMbgkcFor real gamers it is irrelevant

Its DrTre what did you expect? :lol:
This is the same guy that claimed that Wii U would have the definitive versions of GTAV and Battlefield 4 :lol:
It's relevant, just not as relevant as the Console market.
Puckhog04
Not as relevant in the US, maybe. Not as relevant in Japan, that's a given.
However, the most successful game of all time (WoW) is a PC exclusive, the current most-played online game (League of Legends) is a PC exclusive, and fast-selling exclusive game ever (Diablo 3) is a PC exclusive (as of right now).
It also gets more dev support than any other system, and the biggest publishers in the industry (Activision/Blizzard, EA, Ubisoft, Take 2, Sega, and even Sony and Microsoft) make PC exclusive games, and yet make none for the consoles (except Sony/MS obviously).
Did Blackbond really just use the WiiU in it's launch year period to make his point? :|
HalcyonScarlet
Is that a problem? How hard is it to make games for your own system and why are games delayed? Why are we half a year in with nothing? Why can't Nintendo staff projects correctly?
You know what platform never has to wait for games or a year after launch? PC. nuff said.
PC makes more revenue alone than any other platform and people are pitting every console against it. I mean look at Valve they make million selling pc games online and companies like EA are trying to copy it success with Origin. Even EA said the PC might be there lead platform in the future and it was the fastest growing platform. Sega is already reinforcing more PC game development when it used to be primary console. We seeing more games having PC as the lead platform its a very good sign I don't get why people are downplaying it. TheFadeForever
Sure
6 million Skyrim sold on 360 vs 1 million on PC
LOL

Not defending his point or attacking yours.
But using the Wii U is just kinda weak, it doesn't represent console gaming particularly well. It's just represents Nintendos struggle to compete with Sony and MS. They try to find new ways to differentiate and compete, people bought into it with the Wii, but people aren't buying it with the Wii U. It just comes off as picking on the weakest. I don't like the Wii U and I have no immediate plans on buying one, so i'm not defending it.
If you used PS3 or 360 to make your point, I might not like it or agree, because i've never seen the PC as competition like others do and I believe both have strengths and weaknesses, but at the same time I wouldn't criticize your point. I just expected you to come from a different angle.
Also imo typically launch year games aren't great to begin with.

I'm not trying that's my opinion deal with itDavekeeh
Your opinion is wrong
Opinions are never wrong
No wonder you say such stupid things; you can't reason worth sh!t. Opinions very often are wrong.
If someone says "it is my opinion that the moon is made out of cheese", I'm sorry but that opinion is wrong. Opinions on matters of fact have to be supported by evidence and reasoning, otherwise they are worthless.Â
[QUOTE="the_bi99man"]
[QUOTE="clyde46"] Agreed, however we live in a time of free speech. He may think that PC gaming sucks, but we can also say that he's an idiot for doing so. Davekeeh
Indeed. The ignorant always hate PC gaming. And their ignorance is precisely the reason for their hate. Same system wars shit, different day.
No, you're ignorant because you are irrational and don't even try to present a worthwhile point of view. If you would simply say, "PC gaming is irrelevant to me", then your position would be in the realm of subjective preference and would have merit. But saying things like "PC gaming is irrelevant" puts your opinion at odds with objectively demonstrable fact and makes you look like an illogical fool.

[QUOTE="Sali217"]Why are PC gamers always so incredibly defensive? I like my console games but I can admit there are flaws to them, why can't PC gamers ever admit that there are flaws with their platform. Such as accessibility, maintenance and ease of use?Gue1
Probably because the points brought up by the youtuber are incorrect
Â
how are they incorrect when we have so many publishers like Ubisoft complaining about piracy on PC? Why do you think Crysis is now on consoles? F2P MMO's and social games might make more money on the PC but triple A games always make more money on consoles and that is the truth and the point he makes in the video.
PC and consoles are overlapping, but different, markets. Some types of games do better on consoles, some types do better on PC. The vast majority of 3rd party games are multiplatform now. It's not just PC games going to console, but also many console games going to PC.Â
The fact remains that the PC gaming market is thriving.Â

Is it another elitist fanboy, moaning about elitist PC gamer bullies?
seanmcloughlin
He says PC gamers are irrelevant in publishers eyes because it's not where the money's at. Then says PC gamers get games incredibly late compared to consoles.
He never talks about PCs being lead platforms for certain games or the reverse effect of some PC games going to consoles later. So it's a completely fanboyish biased video.
Oh and he raps/sings this creepy weird song at the end saying "you exposed b!tch" over and over :?
Actually, the guy that ORIGNALLY made the song is a guy that is on BLACKB0ND's side, named TheOMEGAloser. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBjTt6ZL1ls[QUOTE="seanmcloughlin"][QUOTE="MlauTheDaft"]

Such as accessibility, maintenance and ease of use?Sali217Why are the console gamers so incredibly offesive? Don't you see on this topic? All the anti-pc comments? People claiming that "real gamers" don't play PC and claiming that their opinions are 'true' when opinions aren't FACT. Fact will always be fact, and facts will always be true. Opinions will always be opinions. Opinions only apply to individuals' perspectives. When people say that there are more features on the PC version of Skyrim than on the PS3 version. That is a fact because mods are avaliable on the PC version of Skyrim. When people say that they can use MORE than a Keyboard and Mouse on PC, that is a fact because people can use Xbox 360 controllers and PS3 controllers on their PC.

That's a great point. The Wii U is in a struggle and is in it's first year right now. It's a bit unfair to use it to represent console gaming as a whole since it hasn't established itself yet.Not defending his point or attacking yours.
But using the Wii U is just kinda weak, it doesn't represent console gaming particularly well. It's just represents Nintendos struggle to compete with Sony and MS.
