Console vs Computer Round 2: Go!

OKay, so we are back to the debate. I was going to game tonight, but its maintenance night. Where I check my computer weekly for viruses etc. I check and recheck integrity of games etc. I wonder why fragmentation rates go up etc. Anyways, on this magical day I don't game on computers. Heres a few reasons why PCs are only good for adobe photoshop and spam/trolling the internet:

1.) Turn on a console, the game plays. You can go unto steam, log on, boot up your game etc. or put the disk in. Hence relative faster Boot times. This isnt a great argument as to why consoles are better, because of standby mode on both console and pc...but its up there. Boot game, play game. Console wins, even if your mouse keyboard is an xpadder controller. 45 seconds pc, console 0 seconds with disc, game is already playing. Console wins.

2.) Turn on a PC, most likely, it may play with better graphics idk..lack of exclusives are infact really good in dev. This though is a throw in, hence, exclusives can go for PC too. There are plenty of PC only titles out there..and I wont name a few that wikipedia can handle. They named a bunch...but realitevly, people like nintendo more so than say age of empires. This isn't a strong argument though, mainly because the PC world gave us DOOM, and never made a faithful exclusive since, lol anyways...you get the point. I would kill for a descent game nowadays. Anyways scheduled operations are a major bummer. Virus scans, defrag scans etc. But usually its update time, or check for this and that time. IDK, if I will be able to play my game today. Oh xpadder, yeah. Wait, now what. Okay...hmm I compressed some internet files. Yeah...oh my hard drive is not defraged...oh kay. Hey lets run adware first...look! I get some malware. Hmmm..something turned my updates on. Oh they are through an always online internet server okay....guess wat i wont even get to the steam folder today. Maintenance heavy machine..very heavy...like hi im not actually a gaming console heavy. Unless I open my steam app heavy...which on somedays I can not. BTW, Registries (the major reason) makes things like standby mode not work well.

3.) Controllers, say youre playing a game with a cter. There's this theory that controllers suck on FPS, that theory is true. However, after playing gotham city imposters they do not suck. So either way + or - the games will be realtively uneven. It may create uneven gameplay.

4.) Web browsers....you can actually open 4 web browsers on a ps4, and the privacy of the machine is there. You can open 4 on a PC and the world knoews. Infact people may be 'adjusting' your pc, the people who use it. Web browsers either have a lack of privacy or they do not. Spyware blaster rootkit blocker anyone? I would include this with registries, but its so blatantly used by the mass, that...it becomes ridiculous. Consoles without the registry, show infact that they do.

5.) Consoles are infact better...they just are. Easy interfaces, easy Maintenance, the only thing they lack is universal control or programs made idk in the 90s like adobe photoshop and maybe a mouse. No virus scans etc. Space nowadays on PC and console are not an issue, have a 120 gb hard drive? throw in a 32gb usb stick onto the o/s. This just in...the launcher on your game crashes and you spend hours trying to fix it...ever have a launcher not work? Very Common.

6.) Third party programs on computers are useful. Has anyone used gamebooster or iobit's asc? Its infact very useful, and infact boosts my game performance alot. Now Consoles don't need these programs...but idk MAYBE there is another microsoft first party or third party program out there that helps the O/s a little. Configurations such as what software to use. Or tweaking graphics, sound, maybe. I don't know, is there an optimal O/s config? Yes we get google earth, etc. But we PC gamers just don't know what exact program or antivirus to use. We don't know if it deters or helps the system. We just don't know anything about performance. Is there a registry cleaner that cleans better than others? We just don't know what type of snoop dogg spyware bullshit is in computers. We just know one thing...its REOCCURRING. It always returns. Where as a console loaded with apps does not eg 0 problems, 0 maintenance, 0 worries about stability.

7): PCs, are multipurpose and simply become too destracting, esp with Updates. They have the benefits though. I infact put imposters, and wot, and maybe payday 2 on my PC...because its simply better, and with xpadder used more effectively than on the console. But im using xbox 360 not ps4. Me playing music on a PC will result to many configs, maybe a config or two with the game...me playing music on xbox 360 is like oh, the games music is turned off. The graphics and fps still suk, the server issues are still there so....my final thought is: Through a confort zone but only that, do Consoles excel over PCs overall in general. IE the new update of dcuo did not work on my pc, yet it did off of steam. Must be signature executable curroption. IDK, but consoles dont have that.

8.) Consoles don't have Registries. PCs have registrys. Registries even on Macs (macs and linux have 1 folder registries, pcs are horrible because there registry is a whole operating system. This is how rootkits and malware are created, through an iexplorer over the o/s. Big registries virus curroptable, small registry, fucking dangerous apple! Consoles win again.

9.) Expensive hardware, and even software. PC operating systems run up to 100 dollars. The Games themselves which play and even at times look as good as the console counterpart require extra components such as videocards which run as much as a game console itself. Am I free tommorrow? Nope I'm actually busy, uninstalling steam and all the games to figure out why the game I most frequent isn't starting. If the game still doesn't run, I reinstall the video drivers, then the o/s itself! Good job bill gates!

True, I would rather play gta v on my PC, but I wouldnt be able to play it as much. PCs expend more time than consoles even if the overall experience (esp on a 40 inch hd tv) will take great strides to be better. Some day we will have more crossplatforming games, basically (Warthunder is PC to console, so it DCUO come Feb 1st 2016). There you have it, 9 legit facts why Consoles are better than PCs, and becus of games such as driveclub to maybe halo, I think are equal in terms of techical eyes, ie graphics. Well back to defraging the hard drive and checking for bad sectors...snirk. he he.

But really these aren't convincing problems..why really do PCs suck!?!

I mentioned it in the problem the major problem is THE REGISTRY. I def do not rec a computer for gaming. 1.) the windows servers are run by a bunch of thieves. I bought two ps/2 keyboards for example. Here is proof, they would randomly shut off my keyboard after standby mode where I would think its a keyboard error. "But that's the motherboard getting old, maybe its the registry overtime needs a too be wepaaaaairred dddrrrrrrrr." Wrong, the other day I changed a registry value on windows 7 for another problem that 'just appeared'...that's right. The TDR delay under graphics drivers. Just type in graphics drivers and change the value of a number to say 2...okay...well it returns back to 8 much later. I checked my registry scanners for this file change and it was never present. I rebooted nothing. On 2.4.16 I literally put standby mode on for a few hours and this occurred. Higher tdr values means new monitors at very high resolutions to buy. But you can't force people to buy things. There are hackers controlling your pc through registry manipulation, and I would NOT rec a PC for future gaming or present gaming. What's even stranger is they can add more bots and control your PC to the upmost discret level in the book. Hi. I follow the law of the universe not you, your war is coming. Snoop snoop snoop, snoop until you can't hold your breath gayempire. As for Computers in general, I gaurantee I am not the only one with the so-called ghost in the machine...and I know technology works in this way. Turn a console on/off no manipulation. Turn a PC on/off you get manipulation.

Well, okay there are two sets of graphics drivers. But for hardware glitches that can't be fixed, its not in the realm of impossible and I'm still going to look out for it. Other than that maintenance thing, yeah PCs are generally better than consoles, but they may not last as long. BUt really?!? And why doesn't steam games ever work or steam itself? Its as if you can't load games off of steam ever. Its so unstable. Half of the games on my PC will just randomly quit. What am I three and am only supposed to play the PC once for 2 hrs. Lol. Above is true, PCs are infact UNSTABLE, and NOT FOR GAMING. Amorite? This is coming from the horses mouth, ive had over 5 store bought gaming computers since 2002, and none i repeat none worked correctly, ever. Still they do not. I'll even name the pc hardware ive owned to prove of its unstability and the major problems:

486dx2 66, 4 mbs ram soundblaster - not a bad pc at all...one must fall, descent, doom etc all very fast, competed well with psone. lets skip 10 years and not remember the throwaway college pcs getting a virus and going to the library fuckups

Asus amd - n/a dont remember, my bros computer he past on.

Soyo dragon board, ati card - slow boot, wide pipelines, best mb ive ever had. Played sof 2, tomb raider AoD, ut/quake 3/star lancer, rainbow six raven shield, C&C zerohour etc very well. Soyo was given to me by him. Best board ever. Sold it on ebay to earn money, worst mistake ever. BTw for some reason it was faster than the duel core amd 2@2.0 ghz. A shotty 1.4, maybe 1.7 dont r4ember

duel core amd 64 3000, austrailian board with an ati radeon card..it was def a socket am2 - lots of problems, one are ram issues

Macbook - froze from a virus, my sisters pc. Used it alot for music. Visited, and saw it bricked. She also had me build her an nvidia gaming pc. I put ffx 7 a 60 dollar game in. Scratched it too pcs getit pcs. Emulator is shit.

Icore 3, radeon 5700 hd - games dont load, steam breaks, files get damaged very easily...lots of spyware idk. k state-of-the-art...still fucking broken. AMD combined with intel idk wat it is really.

Common Problems: low power states on PCs create usb controller issues, device issues such as keyboard etc.

If you work with computers and to computer related devices, i can tell you right now...youre a pos. I actually take that statement back, but...games do need to be defragged etc. Without gamebooster, defraggler and with steam sucking up resources, I actually have to restate the obvious. Too many devs customize their games for 64 bit o/s's. Oh, well that was probably it. They are not aware 32bit win7 users (you know people who arent gonna shell out a 100 dollar o/s after buying a new pc. That's like 200 dollars on top of the win 32 bit...use yes that's right more than 4 gbs of ram. Im a gamer, I use win 7 32bit on pae tool at 8gb ram. Many devs just make win64 a standard unfortunetly. Here's another fun fact, ghost recon is 32bit compatible, it does not want to YOUR FUCKING CONTROLLER SCHEME SUX....NO NO THERE IS ONLY ONE SET UP THERE, THERE IS NO NEED TO RESET TO DEFAULT WHEN YOU HAVE ONE SET UP UBISOFT FUCKIN IDIOTS> GHost recon works the best on xbox cter s...it works really well with that controller comprehende? But they made it so no emulator shall pass, no program will fix the cter issue. You pick an xbox cter s, you use it on this game, then try using the triggers...lol..k...They are wat you call in the dev world by gamers...DUMB...D-U-M-B. If this isnt a signature issue, its registry curroption from a third party. Just like the dcing keyboard. Youre gonna burn in hell for that. PCs just plane suk.

Solution:

I finally managed it after 2 hrs...Ghost recon had a low power state...because my PC was on standby. Never ran into this problem before. Its basically, that the game's software gets in the way of its detection on a game controller, esp if your PC was on a low power setting. I know this problem, the low power state creates a cter issue, and even mouse issue on usb devices. It reads, it works, but stops working because of some registry fragmentation...idk...on standby modes. Something that consoles excel in as well...is standby mode. No registry defragmentation, no faulty connections to kb and game controllers. Standby mode and registries do not mix. Standby mode does not work on PCs..yeah thats it. Well the solution is this: use gamebooster. It helps a little. The low powerstate doesnt reactivate the background programs well. You can still use standby mode, but honestly gamebooster will prevail in usb/ps2 disconnects by saving system resources on standby mode. Steam is still a fucking living pos for 32 bit systems. I takes too much system resources and is the reason for most errors in games. I dl directly from the website. Here's the real deal, its not steam. Its the fact that your pc will have xpadder at 12k, and gamebooster at 11k, its just too many operations. Gamebooster, though makes up for it by taking out background operations. You will have problems using Xpadder with Steam, basically. At100k resources etc...it will cause problems. Also, disable non-essential operations such as dfsvc.exe. Netframework, yes the gay computer empire likes to install old software that zaps system resources. Tired long day..good night.

PS I tried one more thing, for malware deletion. I have avast, asc, gamebooster...that's it then the game plays. So the system resources are low but the malware returned that day. I then noticed my new asc did not have the malware function on. Hopefully that does it. Computers are just wierd in the end basically. If I stop ASC and Avast and even gamebooster...system resources for games will work more effectively. Like why have it you know? I never get viruses anyways, and can probably delete it. I will think about stopping crucial system resources. Until then, Ghost recon should be installed directly without steam. Computers are worst than consoles that way, esp that way..via the registry standby mode, signatures, and you guessed it...installed programs and even virus scanners, but consoles are specialized computers anyways so who knows why these things are required. Anyways the DNS is now BLOCKED. But really, now games disconnect. They randomly do so. The less operations the better.

MY HONEST OPINION about this age old argument:

Computers are a living pos, the only game that works out of the 10 games I have installed on my pc are warframe...and guess wat? No one knows why/ its gotten worst than the xp days because windows 7 and beyond do not bother to have or include errors such as a registry error or a broken hard drive. If you want gameplay on a console, go gold, you put the disk in..you dl the game. It plays. Most likely you might get a server issue at best..but who cares thats the company running the server's fault. Computers are honestly a living POS..from freeing up active x controls, to bricking hard drives, to disabling netframework, an annoying spyware extender that requires most games to work, then crashes and does not sense it being installed. Computers are infact the stone-age. I'm going to go ahead and vie for a more comfortable heaven.

To summarize all the bs on this long explanation here is a quote from me:

"Computers are not built for gaming and never were, you need a specailized computer for that, you need a console."

Also the gay empire has gone further with a dick up there ass and won't let go: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/af38172e-1781-4dc7-8835-9581fda8326c/defaultapppool-user-folder?forum=w7itprogeneral they install hidden software, where as xp can find the problem to. For k..defaultapppool is security software, its another operating system hidden in yours specifically for snooping. This is the reason why my netframework setup does not work. No no nono no..PCs are not gaming machines. NonononononN o n-o. Forget it.

Other News..

Crossplatforming its here in a big way..

On some big good news from a previous post. DCUO is now Xbox one, Ps4, PC, Ps3 crossplay compatible. Thats the largest crossplatform game in history. Ever since Dreamcast's Evolution 4x4 on PC/DC/Mac have I been a fan of this tech. Crossplatform play increases user base (even if xbox 360, PC servers suck lol, no they do). Anyways. Quake 3 was PC/DC. PSO was PC/DC/GC. Warthunder is Ps4/PC, but never have we come across a behemoth of 4 console crossplay. IDK its probably like not xbox one compatible...YET. Cus its not released duh. That's right, the servers are def going to be crowded this year, come Feb 5-6th.
