Not sure if PCs are decimating consoles. I know they are definitely beating consoles in every category minus exclusives.
But that's alright. Exclusives belong on console. What we in the PC realm consider exclusive are mods and things that consoles will never be able to do.
There is no such thing as PC exclusives anymore. Most games that were exclusive (Essentially EVERY FPS like Battlefield, CoD, Wolfenstein, Far Cry, Crysis, Metro to name a few were ALL PC exclusive) are also on console now and it makes sense from a financial standpoint. PC is the easiest and most profitable platform to develop for. Porting to console is no biggie and really a bad business decision if you decide not to.
And really, there's no need for them on PC. Consoles are a different story. Sony and Microsoft need exclusives to set their consoles apart from one another so buyers are drawn to one platform over the other. Meanwhile PCs are in a league of their own and have no real direct competition.
Hope that makes sense to all of you. PC is still the best platform if you want to play a game the way it's meant to be played.

@Karmazyn That's one of the reasons I don't take Gamespot's graphic comparisons seriously. There is alot that is not shown in that screenshot. They never show what really matters. Draw distance, special effects, shadows, tesselation and lighting to name a few. Differences that a static screenshot in a cutscene can't show you.
@xboxdynasty8 I have Titanfall. Got bored at level 29. Game became stale and basically a level grind just like CoD is. I expect Titanfall 2 to be a much better game, much bigger in scope with an actual campaign and coop to boot. I enjoyed TLoU much more than TF but to be fair you can't compare them at all.
Looks good but you can clearly tell the engine was tailored specifically for the PS3. Not like GTA V were the engine was clearly made for PC. The difference in visuals between the PS3 and PS4 versions of GTA V are massive.
@soda128 The PS4 isn't washed out in colors, it's just that the XBox One over exagerates contrast. I believe the scaling chip in the Xbox One is to blame for this but it was done purposely. it's like turning on the dynamic contrast on your TV. I prefer without. It kills details in dark scenes.
They're both fairly close. Close enough that you can't tell the difference unless you had them side by side. The PS4 does have better antialiasing and shadows though. Special effects seem to be a bit more elaborate on PS4 too. Still, both are close enough. Let's compare to PC when it releases next year :D
