Silence peasant!

Instead of talking nonsense why don't you spend some time meditating on the idea of playing games at 1080p, ultra settings at 120fps. Perhaps then you will realize the truth, that you are living in squalor with your pathetic 900p, 30fps, medium PC settings equivalent machine.

When you have achieved enlightenment and are ready to ascend to the glorious master race, come back and see me. I will be there to guide you on your journey.

shut up dumbass. you pc gamers...always on your high horse. so what if i play in 900p?? forgive me if i fail to notice the lack of extra 180p when I'm playing frantic fast paced games like sunset overdrive or halo the master chief collection??

how does sunset overdrive look on ur pc? oh...i forgot it doesnt have a pc release. haha. PC gamers are excluded form some of the biggest releases of all time. Tell me, have you played infamous, killzone, sunset overdrive, the last of us remastered or GTA V?? or will you be able to play unchartered 4, God of war 4, halo 5, bloodborne or the order 1886 when they release next year? no. cuz those titles arnt coming to the pc. so what the Bleep are you making noise about.

Why should i have to worry about spending substantial amounts to upgrade my graphics card when i can just buy a console and play till my hearts content?? not to mention the numerous glitches and bugs PC gamers have to deal with.


so sit the Bleep down and let us hear word

Silence!!!

The reason we PC gamers are always on our high horses is because our horses are so high. Why would we want to climb down and mix with the unwashed masses? If consoles were horses, peasants would ride.

And to say the difference between 1080p and 900p is "180 extra p" is peasant arithmetic. FYI 1080p has 44% more pixels than than 900p and 4 times that of 720p. Resolution measures area, not length. Plus if 1080 isn't enough for you, you can always try 1440p, or 4k. You can try 640x360 if thats what tickles your nìpples. With PC gaming, you can have whatever you like.

Also PCs have more exclusives than all 3 current gen consoles put together. We have enough corridor shooters and 3rd person hack and slash games, thank you. Personally I prefer more cerebral games than that. Maybe when they port Civilization: Beyond Earth, or Rome 2: Total War to PlayStation, we'll talk.

Also I see you have a PSN subscription. How much was it? Was it expensive? Why don't you just add the PSN money to the cash you'll save on the far cheaper PC games so you can buy yourself a decent video card? The only way consoles are cheaper is if you never buy games and you don't plan to be alive in the next 18 months. Any longer than that and PC gaming is far cheaper.

Hell, I have 102 games on my steam account plus a dozen or so more between Origin and GOG. Yet together, they all cost less than half of the 12k I blew on a single brand new Grand Theft Auto 4 disk back in my plebBox360 days. You see I was once a peasant too. But I scratched my way up from the gutter until I reached enlightenment.

You can do it. Come with me, hold my hand, let me take you towards the light.

Well, enough already. Whether you're using PC/Mac, consoles, counters and/or smoke signals...get over it, play your video games and get back to the topic.

I just finished an Ace Combat: Assault Horizon (Enhanced) session, I haven't enjoyed myself so much recently, the game is too sweet! I just have to stop myself so I can sleep! Continue in the morning!

Its funny you keep calling people peasants but you are the peasant. I now understand why you are a PC gamer. Its a money issue. So you cant afford a $50 per annum psn subscription. Lmao. Stick to your PC. PC gaming is cheaper. I'm so sorry peasant. Enjoy your cheap a** 102 free steam games.

Its funny that you brag about total war or civilization when the big boys will be playing playing far more exciting and exclusive AAA titles like The order, Bloodborne, titanfall and sunset overdrive. Is that why you PC gamers buy 4th generation intel processors, nvidia titan GPU's and 4k Tvs; just to play civilization? Lmao. dumbest s*** i ever heard.

What relevant exclusives do PC gamers have? Microsoft has already abandoned the PC by excluding them from most of their latest blockbusters (Halo the master chief collection, sunset overdrive, Forza horizon 5). Even 2015 titles like quantum break and Halo 5 are not coming to PC. The result is that you PC gamers are left with crappy low budget steam games. Suitable for peasants like you that cant pay the price for premium gaming.

Besides, if i wanted to play civilization or total war, i dont need a high end PC to do it. It can easily run it on any low to medium end PC. Your horse is starting to look extremely low, huh?

By the way i own a dell xps 17 with intel core i7 quad core processor and dedicated 3gb nvidia GPU.

When you make more bread, switch up to premium gaming.

Peasant.

Lord I have missed...

The fact that I chose to spend my money in a way that gives me maximum benefit doesn't make me a peasant. Why should I pay money for a service that I can get a better version of elsewhere for free? Peasantry is living in sqaulor even when you have no reason to. Peasantry is a thing of the mind, it has nothing to do with your wallet.

Also you don't need a high end PC to play any PC game. You can run pretty much all of them on midrange or low end rigs (the notable exception being the poorly coded abomination that is Assassin's Creed Unity). My 2 year old Ivy Bridge i3 work laptop with integrated graphics easily outperforms the last gen consoles. And you can now build a rig that kills the PS4 for $450. The cost of entry for PC gaming is extremely low but you have the option of spending extra if you like eye candy.

As for the games, Titanfall is available on PC, Sunset Overdrive is coming soon (Microsoft's 3rd party exclusives are timed and they've already leaked advertising for the PC version). Forza seems nice, but the PC has Asseto Corsa, iRacing (the game professional drivers use to practice) and by far the best version of Project Cars. Bloodborne is interesting but it and the handful of real exclusives aren't worth the cost of a new PS4. If I were to buy a console for exclusives it would be a WiiU for Mario Kart, Smash Brothers and Zelda. Its funny that the console that has by far the best exclusives is the one nobody is buying.

The funny thing about PC gaming is the way it allows you to discover new experiences. I abandoned consoles because I was a graphics whõre, yet the games I've spent the most time playing are FTL (a brilliant indie Star Trek simulator) and Rome: Total War (a 10 year old strategy game). And despite its age, Rome still has a huge community playing multiplayer, creating mods and discussing on forums. Plus the game is still being updated by its developer. Compare that to last year's COD: Ghosts on consoles that is already a ghost town.

Calm down children,gaming no be work oo....its just a hobby not many peeps can devote as much time as they wud luv to.I got 10+ games on jailbroken PS3 I probably won't finish by mid next year talkless of worrying about PC and Xbox exclusives.There's probably enough games on evry platform to satisfy most users so arguing about exclusives is futile cos u simply can't play 'em all

I agree with most of your points. Very intelligent write up. Your platform of choice depends on your preference really.

I used to be a PC gamer but switched to consoles for a number of reasons.

PC gaming has too many irks for me. I like to just buy games and play them without worrying about application crashes, direct x compatibility issues or any of the other numerous bugs that plague PC gaming. I once downloaded Just Cause 3 for PC only for it to crash at the opening sequence numerous times. i re-downloaded it 2wice and it still crashed. Only for me to find out i needed to install the alpha driver of my current GPU driver and i had the beta version. Why should i have to downgrade my driver version to game? Or my days of playing career in FIFA 12 when the game chose to crash after at the end of the season. Do you know how frustrating it is to play a whole season only to be denied progression into the next season? I could go on and on.

Secondly, i am a social gamer. I am always online. One of the advantages of PC gaming is that its supposed to be cheaper. But the pirated versions of most AAA games dont connect to the servers because of DRM authorization restrictions. If you want to play online with PC games, then you have to buy the game. And AAA games cost the same on PC and consoles. If it costs the same, i would rather be on consoles.

Then there are exclusives but we have covered that.

But if you love graphics so much and dont really care about exclusives, then PC gaming is perfect for you.

All those issues you mentioned have been solved by Steam. They've dealt with the DRM issues, it installs the games for you including DirectX and any other dependencies, keeps them updated, backs up your saves to the cloud (so you can continue your game on another computer) and it has by far the most vibrant community with over 100 million active users and 8 million online concurrently.

And Steam games are crazily cheap so you won't even need to pirate. They're constantly having sales that can be as much as 90% off. I got Tomb Raider for $4 a few weeks ago. Before that, Metro: Last Light including all DLC for $5, that's less than N1000! Then there's Humble Bundles, other retailers that support Steam like Green Man Gaming, there's key sellers offering insane discounts, and you can even buy discs and activate them on steam.

PC gaming is completely different from what it was a few years ago. You have no idea what you're missing.

£24.99. The one that is paining me is Watchdogs (Vigilante Edition), GAME messed up with their site, it didn't update early enough, so I missed it (£19.99, stupid thing was still showing £54.99).
Currently playing COD: Advanced Warfare...obviously, am I the only one who found the Nigerian PM's voice weird?

The site, the deal happened between 1-2pm on GAME, I had my iPad set on the page since morning, so I clicked the deal about 3 minutes past one, it only showed the PS4 special edition deal, while the vigilante edition on all platforms were still their original prices. I refreshed it constantly, but alas no change, had to get back to my work station (my lunch break finished at 1pm, I would have been noticed). Only to discover that it took them over 15 minutes to sort it out later.
