cao: If you said consoles were the better option based on your preference only, I would understand. But when you're taking into consideration the option of having a better loking graphics and a very good framerate and you are saying a console is better than a gaming PC because you don't need to upgrade a console, then you're not making sense, at all. When console manufacturers release new consoles doesn't it make old ones obsolete? BTW, the yearly main upgrades for PC is just the graphics card, it doesn't make the whole PC obsolete. You can still make use of the card at a lower framerate, not necessarily a non-playable one. when they say PC's vs Consoles, its more like PC's (+optional upgrades) vs Consoles...based on output PC's will always be better, argument only surfaces when personal preferences come in... 2 Likes |

Aceed:And yet again, it's graphics and frame rates y'all are talking about again? I didn't even talk about which was better, I solely talked about particular points (upgradeable PCs and graphics) the poster I quoted made. After all this talk, at the end of the day, it's all based on personal preferences. Plus, I see you missed the bit were I said "technically obsolete", technically being the operative word. |

Aceed: New gen consoles don't make old ones obsolete(Well as far as play station is concerned). It's a different experience entirely with extra game trophies for those ps3 vita or ps2 games fortunate enough to be remastered on nowgen. Ps3, psvita and ps2 games are still very relevant to play station gamers. Unlike you pc and Xbox users |
Re: 10 Reasons Why PC Gaming Is the Best by Aceed: 4:18pm On Mar 28, 2018 |
Thegamingorca: Are you saying that there are no games playable on ps4 and are not playable on a ps2? |
Re: 10 Reasons Why PC Gaming Is the Best by Aceed: 4:32pm On Mar 28, 2018 |
cao: Well, well... , at least, on a PC you can enjoy ultra gameplay on all titles for a while or as long as a console generation depending on the card, 'portability' and it can be used for other ICT purposes apart from gaming. You can also play games from all platforms provided there's an emulator |
Re: 10 Reasons Why PC Gaming Is the Best by Thegamingorca(m): 4:49pm On Mar 28, 2018 |
Aceed: No physical disc game playable on the ps4 is playable on any console. Same goes for the ps3 and vita. |
Re: 10 Reasons Why PC Gaming Is the Best by Thegamingorca(m): 4:53pm On Mar 28, 2018 |
Aceed: Unlike a console, a pc isn't designed to game primarily. That in itself proves that pc gamers don't exist on the grandscale of things. How many sony exclusives can your microwave oven play none!!! Which reminds me, @Akbliv010 come and school this hoe about the perks to using a ps4 pro Cc lana1 and akbliv010 |
Re: 10 Reasons Why PC Gaming Is the Best by Aceed: 5:01pm On Mar 28, 2018 |
Thegamingorca: what I asked is that can you play a ps4 game on a ps2? If no, how does new consoles not make older ones (technically ) obsolete? sorry for the misunderstanding.. btw, a physical disc isn't needed for emulators na |

Aceed: It can only be obsolete if the ps4 games are exactly the same as the ps2's but with better graphics. You are probably one of those gamers who play only football on their pcs You are no-gamer if you don't know how unique the play station last gen games are. Of course I don't expect much from you pc whores The play station last gen games have distinct experiences. |

Whizzahd: you just compared a $2500 pc to a $250 console, use common sense and stop trying to feel sophisticated,in most cases medium to high pc technical know how is required, any layman can use a console. U say pc cuts across generations, upgrading to abive medium graphics card sets u back about 500 to 1k2 usd, a ps3 came out as 300 usd, p4 at 450 usd, compare both to 2k5 upgraded pc.... So like 1k5 usd just to brag about graphics ... It doesn't make sense, funny thing is dat im a pc gamer, its a personal choice, not a sensible one but i dont regret it |

Thegamingorca:I decided not to wade into this pc lost war since yesterday. Who compares pc to console? I have a Msi gt70 gaming laptop that I got since 2014. It runs every pc game u can think of flawlessly but still.. I can't compare it to my play station 3 dem not to talk of 4. |
Re: 10 Reasons Why PC Gaming Is the Best by Aceed: 5:42pm On Mar 28, 2018 |
crafteck: That's why arguments abound, there's never a focal point of argument. The goal of most arguments is to change people's preferences/tastes and it just can't work. I might want a framerate higher than what a console gives and I am willing to spend so much, you might be okay with the framerate of a console and don't see a reason to 'waste' extra $$$ for ultra frames. Depending on the light situation in Nigeria now, I might prefer a gaming laptop and you a console because you can afford the extra expenses of having light 24/7 of required... my preferences can't be the better one for both of us and yours also can't the better one for both of us... 3 Likes |

EMEKA1MILLION: why? |
Re: 10 Reasons Why PC Gaming Is the Best by EMEKA1MILLION(m): 5:56pm On Mar 28, 2018 |
Aceed:well, the laptop gives me everything.. For now I just use it for my office base simulators cause of the 32gb ram it has. For me, I prefer gaming on my console. To each his own. The console is strictly for gaming, but play station 3 and 4 cancels out some opinion of this post cos you can do every other thing with it. Eg, watching movies, surfing the net, expandable hard drives which cancels out the ops post saying u are limited. My Ps4 came with 1 terabyte hdd and I changed it to 2. For the fact that I get a beta frame rate on my laptop cos of the Nvidia graphics card, which I connect to a 4k TV through hdmi, I still cannot enjoy multiplayer or online play which makes me stick to the console. Most of my friends are on psn, so why will I stay on steam? The Ps4 controller was built to last forever... Pc has no sustainable controller, who enjoys gaming on a keyboard and mouse? Seriously? Of recent I see stylish pc controllers on eBay but how many can be compared to the rugged ps4 controller? Consoles gets verified updates, pc you get patches upon patches upon patches... Those supporting this post may not have consoles hence the reason for their biased judgment. I have both and I choose my console any day... |

There seem to be a lot of controversies... I'm a pc fan, what games does a console have that i can't get on pc... Anyway, lets have a vote... If you prefer pc, just comment pc rules if its console, just comment console rules... I'll count the vote... My fellow pc lovers, let your voice be heard |

EMEKA1MILLION: Your comparison is stupefying. As I've said console gamers just like to be arrogant, and then start spitting faux pas as facts. Most of your friends are on PSN? So f*cking what? Steam has more monthly users than Xbox Live, and almost as much as PSN. Then you claim PC has no sustainable controllers? Dude, you can use any DualShock or Xbox controller on PC, and of course there are other third party controllers. Something you console gamers don't have a clue about, modality! And then you annoyingly ask, who enjoys gaming on keyboard and mouse? How about you go to any gaming expo and look around for gamers using controllers? You say to each his own, then turn around to say because I don't like X and Y, then no one else does... Seriously, how arrogant do you have to be to make that argument? Consoles get updates, PCs get mods. Consumer versus Prosumer. You can talk about personal preference, and I'll get you, but don't going about arguing with fallacies. "PC has no sustainable controller!" Good god man, get a grip! If you have a gaming laptop and a console, and you still don't know you can use you DS4 on your PC, then it's safe to say you haven't a clue as to what you're talking about. -Lord 2 Likes |

Thegamingorca: TBH, technically, it's not PC vs CONSOLES, it's actually PC[XBOX] vs PS. With time, when there is so much integration between PC and XBOX because of Microsoft, PS will be BBM. Enjoy it while it lasts. When I saw Lord16's post about gaming expos, I thought about those aesthetic beasts and beauties I see online and on mags, they make consoles look like rags. Talking about surfing the net and watching videos on PS, PC's are better suited for IoT's than consoles. Have you thought about playing your favourite song through gaming headsets while gaming, SWEET! Or replacing the games soundtrack/songs with yours? |
