I feel underwhelmed, then again ever since I started getting more into gaming websites and news last year I've started losing my sense of fun with video games, (well I wouldn't say I lost fun, but it feels more like a competition in the gaming community then just playing games for fun) by paying too much attention to everything people mention on these forums like sales figures, worrying about scores, financial losses in each quarter, etc. instead of just truly enjoying games themselves. Though, once the games begin to come and these long periods of waiting end, I feel it'll get much better.

I'm not. I'm just upset that the PC Master Race exists. They have spoilt the PC. I remember when I was younger and used to play on my PC and it was amazing all the things I could do with it. I was blown away when I had my voodoo 1 PC. It was just crazy playing games in 640x480 while PS1/N64 was stuck with 320x240. And then all the other shit PC allowd you to do. But that never once stopped me from popping Tekken 3, Crash Bandicoot, Medievil, 40 Winks, Driver, Spyro, Disruptor, and many more amazing games only available on consoles. I never looked at the PC as 'superior'. I just saw it as an alternative with it's own games and strengths. I remember looking on the internet about PC gaming back in the day and it was completely different to now. Everyone was respectable and mature. There was no bullshit surrounding it. It felt like a haven from the console wars.

But now, it's like your favorite holiday destination is now full of tourists where before it was peaceful and just right. Now when you look on emulator videos, there are comments saying "PC MASTER RACE", and "console peasants only wish they could do this" etc. It used to be people just praising the progress of the emulator and helping others out. Nowadays, people feel the need to put PC against consoles as if they are really the same thing. A PC is as different from a console as a console is from a mobile phone/tablet.

What i'm saying is, there are too many 16 year olds or 'used to be' console gamers getting into PC's and jumping on the master race bandwagon, without really knowing what they are talking about. We live in a world where a teenager who has supposedly "ascended" to the master race can call a self respecting gamer who has primarily gamed on consoles for perhaps decades, a peasant or an idiot etc. And then that kid who knows precisely **** all about the real advantages of PC will instinctively get praised and backed up by other MR brethren while that gamer on consoles (who could very well be a successful person in real life), gets ridiculed for being 'inferior'.

People who have a problem with consoles are really pathetic. And vice versa. I just have a problem with modern day PC culture. It stinks.

And I can play most of the PS3 and PS4 games by using YouTube.

you really sound like an idiot. action games are the weakest link in the gaming world. designed for lower intelligence and for quick satisfaction with a few button presses defining the whole world. if you can't think fast enough to use more than 8 buttons than i guess a console was designed just for you.

@thegreatgeneral: hardware hardly makes a difference for PC. Look at PC's best selling franchises. Warcraft, League of Legends, Starcraft, Diablo, Minecraft, Civilization - all can be played on my four year old laptop quite easily. You paying to have 2500K resolution on PC really doesn't influence the mainstream market whatsoever and represents a pretty small niche hobby. Why do you think gaming press covers consoles? That's where the real money is at. Consolites actually pay for their games and don't wait 2 years for the $2 steam sale price. You = owned

Are you sure about that number .?

"The only legitimate argument any consolite can have is access to exclusives, which the PC community also gets their own share of."

You do realize that RTS , MMOs , Mobas , Indies , "Convoluted" (old school) RPGs , "Empty Space Games" (Space Sims) etc don't count right .? Consolites have ordered to not count them . Only cover based action games count .

My 1260USD PC is already 4x more powerful than the PS4.

4 PS4's would be 1600USD not counting tax or other fees.

My computer also has much better quality parts and cooling. It can also do much more than a PS4.

Was just playing Skies of Arcadia at 1440p. Decided to record it in very high quality and use virtualdub to compress it and upload to YouTube.

Consoles don't have the editing versatility on their own and the quality is much worse.

They also can't go back and play games from older systems with 1440p resolution and 8xAA+16xAF.

No he said "some superiority" but then calls it better hardware. So he is saying that PC is superior

don't get your theory. the $700 base is for a decent gaming system, not your average all-in-one.
