PC gaming is going to die by the end of this year
Because, EVERYGAME except for those low budgest games like Sin of a **** Empire is going to sell poorly and be poor. Everygame will be pirated, everygame thats previously exclusive will need to latch on to the consoles to make profit and finally theres a wider spread community present within the consoles
I agree PC gaming has been decling but it will never "die" as long as people have PC's.
Interface vs PC slob
The PC users? They have to communicate from Xfire, Steam or AIM. Steam Community is a subpar version of Xbox Live, the voice chat in XBL works beyond what Steam can ever imagine, the achievement integration is much cleaner, more demos for the 360 in comparison to steam and we can download movie files straight into the comfort of the our HDTV setup, something in which hermits will have to move their entire PC setup to a television in order to do where as the 360 and PS3 is simply plugin and play.
Unlike Live, we get to choose what we use. You do know that you can use another program to chat while playing games right?
Everygame for the console has an counter for an PC exclusive
Dragonage - Its made by EA, dont wish your luck hermits this is going to be on the 360
Never heard of it.
Starcraft 2 - Halo Wars will easily best it.
I think both franchises are overrated but this made me laugh.
Spore - Wii version and nextgeneration speculation. Regardless I can have FUN playing it on my Wii instead of playing with a hunchback
The Wii version will probably trade features for simplicity like many PC-to-Console games.
STALKER : Clear Flop - OK i just wanted to add this in, this is a buggy POS that is in no way good. Perhaps the hermit's quality has stooped low that they are desperate for any shooter I see..
Lost Oddesey : Clear Flop - perhaps the lemming's quality has stooped so low that they are desperate for any RPG I see.
Oh wait wwait thats it? Well console owners get.
The fastest ACTION game and one of the best action/adventures - NINJA GAIDEN II
I agree, if gamers want to play action/adventure games, the 360/PS3/Wii are the consoles to play it on.
PS3 has the driving simulation all down, we get Gran Turismo down. We also have Metal Gear Solid 4 and Final Fantasy 13 which will most likely blow anything else away.
"Blow anything else away"...uh sure....
Wii - No More Heroes is an awesome game, Brawl, Mario Kart and more.
Sure they are/will probably be awesome games.
No matter WHAT console you choose, youll have a better library of games. Just another example of how consoles are clearly overpowering the PC.
I am pretty sure the PC has the biggest library of this generation with more AAA/AA games (according to GS).
Piracy
BUT BUT BUT PIRACYYYYY DOESNT MATTER!?! Well ever thought of what Crysis would sell if it werent for piracy? Alot more, twice in fact but its too bad that piracy is slowly crippling developers away from the PC just like how Epic made their mistake when they generously made UT3 and Gears of War for the PC. Its a good thing Epic learned their mistake too, so they dont have to spend any budget on a dying market.
I agree piracy is hurting the PC industry.
Scenarios
Guy #1 : Hey want to play Halo 3?
Guy #2 : Sure, lets play over live and party up with a matchmaking system that will allow us to play people against our level.
Guy #1 : Sounds like fun!
Guy #2 : Maybe we can play Gears of War too?
Guy #1 : Yeah! Ill invite my friends over and use guest feature to quickly have friends in a game within a second.
Guy #2 : Cool meet you on Live!
IMO, paying $50 a month isn't worth something that you can use for free which is almost as good if not better in than Live
Is this possible in PC games? I think not.
Guy #1 : Hey wanna play..counterstrike source?
Guy #2 : Thats an old game, do us PC owners have any other multiplayer game to play?
Guy #1 : ..well COD4
Guy #2 : Im already playing that...on the 360 with friends and a larger community...I played the PC version at a friends house and nobody communicates
Guy #1 : Yawn...might as well grind more in World of Warcraft
The reason CS:S is still alive is because it is very very good. Do you see people still playing Halo 2 servers?
Conclusion
So there you have it, PC games now in a gutter. PC games are dying and now you dare attack CliffyB and state that he's ingorant when you guys are too blind to realize that your precious PC games are over? Right.
Although he brings up some good points, the PC gaming market will always be here.
