Maybe try downloading a relatively cheap indie game. Theres some fun old school platformers and get to grips with that before moving into the AAA gaming market. I say that because a lot of AAA games these days just aren't pick up and play the way you want them to be.

btw, forget Forza Horizon, it just wasn't that good and the cars handle badly because of bad programming. Buy any of the main series of Forza games. I think Forza 5 was the last one and it is a superb driving game.

The current AAA releases pale in ocmparison to last gen and the gens before that. The most prominent games this gen. I'm sure would agree are probably: MGS V, FO 4, TW 3, Watchdogs and a couple others. How many of them will go down in history as truly great games? Maybe Witcher 3 but that's about it.

2017 seems promising and if everything goes to plan we should get GOW, Mass Effect, Prey and many others in a packed AAA cycle so there's still hope.

I hope this isnt true for everyone as I was looking to get BF1 specifically for my PC.

The concept is really intriguing and the story/setting seems genuinely unique. However, the game play looks like what most open world games boil down to these days: go here, take something from a person/beat a certain creature, repeat. The only way this formula works is if it is wrapped up in a great story and fun game play (GTA V or TW3 or Skyrim).

dualshock feels so good for gaming, this looks more like xbox shape which is too bulky and rounded imo

man I loved this game! Sadly I no longer have it but I got 3 and...that kinda doesnt feel the same.

@uninspiredcup: spot on.

I just enjoy gaming on multiple platforms but the consoles are the best for pure gaming, although PC is still the place to be for mp

You have to be crazy or stupid to think these are out and out new consoles. Maybe the Scorpio but I don't know enough about that but the One S and Pro are slight (very very slight) upgrades for their respective consoles. In essence, they are a money grab in the filthiest entertainment business on the planet: gaming.

We saw how successful a lack of 3rd party support was for the WiiU...oh wait

That's not an argument based on fact.

My point (maybe the use of the word "optimised" is wrong but I don't think so) is pretty simple: games on consoles work, more often than not, straight "out the box". I know there have been problems in the past with Skyrim and some other big games but more often than not, day one patches aren't needed, for performance, as often as they are on the PC and this worrying trend is becoming more and more apparent. Last year was the debacle with Batman and this year there have been several games that just ran better on consoles.

PC gamers say "yeah well we found a way to make them work better" and at times they had to go into the game code, e.g. The Mafia 3 or just wait for a patch. With consoles, you rarely have to do that. Also, this whole argument of games just looking better on PC is a bit redundant. Like I said, I have Battlefield 1 on PC and it looks somewhat better, turned up to full when compared to the PS4 version I tried but in full motion, the different in not noticeable.

Now I know some PC gamers will just reply "omg thats stupid, its SO much better on PC" and that's fine but I have no vested interest in pc stocks so I can and do speak the truth. If you want straight out the box gaming and with little or no tinkering, go console. If you want slightly better graphics and frame rate smoothness, with lots of tinkering required and the hope that the game has been optimised for your processor and your graphics card, then go PC but I normally don't have that much time.

PC gaming is better for multiplayer though and it normally won't cost you anything extra AND games are a lot cheaper. From EA to steam to everything else out there, PC games are at an all time low these days. I was tempted to download. I got DOOM soon after release for £20. It wasn't a similar price on consoles till months after release.

There are advantages and disadvantages of both but if you just want a gaming experience without the fuss, then go console.
