The Unofficial PC is better than console Thread

Probably will come in a few months time... I hope...
 
If Fable2 doesn't come out on PC I'm going to kill a small furry forrest friend. I'll do it, man.
 
*sigh* Why can't we all just get along .... PC owners, Xbox owners, Wii owners .... but leave those PS3 fanboy's out ok .... lol. :p:p:p
 
only reason why I still stick to PC is because its a quadragazillion times cheaper :) And I like my money...

...oh and because....

1) PS3/XBOX/Wii all kinda suck without an HDTV.
2) PS3/XBOX/Wii games are sometimes up to R300.00 more than PC games.
3) PS3/XBOX/Wii are static... for years... you see very little graphic improvements because the hardware is always the same for the generation.
4) why control a game with 10'ish buttons on a controller - instead of 100 and something buttons on a keyboard/mouse?

just my 2 cents on the topic :) I love my PC
 
I just don't see myself playing a FPS without a mouse....it would just be wrong.

lol @ unofficial thread
 
companies are investing more and more in console

massive market, much bigger than the pc market

harder to pirate with stuff like xbox live

they will port this game to pc which will suck
 
Where were you guys in the Console Fanboy Wars thread...
these guys were kicking me and Lycanthorpe's A$$!

oh another note...
i dont actually think the 360 and Wii are K@K, i just prefer my PC...
but for now im loving my DS till i get a new PC(my graphic card passed on to the next life)
@ st0rm3rs, just look at GTA SA, it also didnt come out on PC but the year after when it finally came out it was far better than the console version...
same with Gears of War, the same can be with any other if they just dont port it, coz we all know porting sucks...
 
On a slightly off-topic note I think in some sense games have dropped in quality on all platforms even on a PC.

Where's the next Gabriel Knight 4 kind of thing or Broken Sword? Where's the next true horror game? Where's DNF? :( What's the next MMORPG? What about another Jagged Alliance? or a hit like Mechwarrior was....something!!! Goodness sakes. People are still playing BF2 and WOW and GW and I wouldn't be surprised if CSS is still popular. Hell even crysis feels like a disappointment to me....and I can't play the darn thing because it's too demanding. The new UT hasn't been such an attention grabber either.

Am I just asleep or are there really no major developments in these areas anymore? I go to a shop today and stare quite blandly at the shelves :( half of the games I've never even heard of. Then again at 22 years I already feel like I'm getting old :p

con·sole : /kənˈsoʊl/ Pronunciation Key [kuhn-sohl] Pronunciation

–verb (used with object), -soled, -sol·ing. to alleviate or lessen the grief, sorrow, or disappointment of; give solace or comfort:

e.g. "Only his myADSL friends could console him when GTA IV was not released on PC".
 
I don't see a need to bash either. If I had loads of cash I would probably have an xbox 360 and my pc. But since it comes down to choice : great pc or console that's an easy choice for me.

Also the fact that virtually all the games on xbox that I am interested gets ported to the pc there's no real need to get a console.
 
ROFLOL

It's like an AA meeting for the nerds of the Ham radio enthusiasts. ;)

Sorry okes, hug your PC's all you want but the games industry is moving to console, PC is being left with low budget niche titles, second hand ports, and the occasional tech demo, it's purely a matter of economics.

Aversion to the controller is purely a matter of noobaphobia: you suck and are too scared to admit it. Fear not, it's something that can be addressed by practise and the occassional teabagging. ;)

Most of you have used a mouse since before you could walk, and yet you claim to adequately compared a controller "because you tried Halo 3 once". Oh Please. While I will happily acknowledge there is little doubt a mouse is more pixel perfect accurate, A controller is far more ergonomic than trying to do digit gymnastics just to hit the crouch or reload button.

</flamebait Friday> ;)
