no, its all about gullible idiots who must have the latest and greatest, but dont want to spend the money to have it.


stop being so greedy and obsessed with having the best, and the problem goes away. or, actually put the effort and money into earning the best.

I will thrive to learn to make my own permanent hardware. thats what i want to do. I want to make my own cpu, gpu, ram and motherboard.

if Battlefield 3 turns out to be not demanding like recent games such Deux, dead island, Call of Juarez: The cartel, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and Hard Reset, that can be easily maxed out , then i will be happy. :)

Game developers should all be the same and make a game that can be maxed out easily like recent games. why Battlefield 3 should be any different??

at this point, its clear you're just trolling. i remember a previous member who acted just like you, and he ended up banned for it. keep that in mind.

no he wants to make his own CPU, GPU, ram and MB from scratch and never upgrade it, but be able to play new game titles at max as they come out.

PC gaming isn't that expensive to get into. A decent gaming setup will cost you about the same as a console when they are first released. You don't need the absolute best just for gaming.

If the programmers weren't so lazy, and if the publishers would spend a little more time and money testing and optimizing games, everything out today would run at over 60 fps on a new budget gaming pc.

But, it's easier to write sloppy code and rely on fast cpus and monster gpus to make games play at acceptable framerates.

Honestly, most PC games are console ports designed to run on an xbox 360, which is basically an old and slow (by todays standards) PC. And most of them run pretty badly, considering how much more powerful todays gaming computers are than an xbox.

Convenience. It's easier to pop a disc in and pick up a pad. Consoles are idiot proof, kinda.

While for the most part it's mostly about money it is also because most people aren't aware of the potential that PCs have over games consoles and of course games consoles are much better advertised than Gaming PCs from what I'm aware of.

There is also the false illusion that games consoles play games in better quality since most of the system is devoted to playing games (not necessarily true as consoles have more than one application such as being signed into an account which has messenger to communicate with others which can be active while in-game) opposed to PCs which devotes its power to all running application whether it is a game, video or an internet explorer; but what most don't take into account is how much more powerful PC hardware has become from since the current games consoles (such as the PS3 and Xbox 360) were first released.

Also when most games console users look at using keyboard and mouse they automatically assume that it is too complicated to use with modern game titles such COD, Battlefield, Assassin's Creed and other games and for the few console users who do decide to play modern titles on PC some usually connect their game console controller (Xbox 360 seems to be the popular option from what I know) to play the game, but if console users were to use keyboard and mouse and adapt well to them they will find that the controls are more reactive and precise than normal game controllers and with the better graphics these games console users may never go back to their out-dated consoles. :D

However, the key reason to why there are still console users is due to the fact that there are game console exclusive games (clearly a marketing strategy to keep people using these out-dated consoles) and presently the main controls for all PC games (regardless of whether or not they are ported from game console games) are keyboard and mouse (there are other controls available, but they don't apply to all games) where consoles have additional exclusive controls with the PS3 having the PS-Move (more or less a rip-off of the Wii controllers) and the Xbox 360 having the Kinect (would definitely like to see this come to PC as it does have the potential to change gaming in many ways).

When it has come to trading most have also found that with console games people can buy, use and sell them where with PC games when you register the game you cannot sell the game so under most circumstance with PC games you would be stuck with the game once you decide to use it.

Overall what keeps the console market alive these days are false assumptions such as a machine designed specifically for gaming would always be powerful than a machine that can do other things including game and also the past reputation of consoles being more powerful than PCs which has been out-of-date for a long time now; and then there is also the marketing strategies such exclusive products, constant and tough anti-piracy monitoring (which is why modern games consoles are registered to a network to keep taps on users) to prevent financial loss from pirated games and a trading culture where hard-copy games can be used and then sold again where others who buy the pre-owned game can use it on their console (directly opposed to the way of how PC games work).

I'm now writing a bit on what consoles have OVER PC:

Depending on whom you are you might either see motion controlled games on the Xbox Kinect or PS3 Move and cookie-cutter, half-baked applications, or killer apps that are the cutting edge of gaming and give consoles the upper hand. Personally, I believe it’s the latter, however I can’t deny how much fun Wii Tennis is

I need to expand on that though, or at least add other advantages console gaming have

atm it's just how it's very simple to use (plug in disc and play)

Something to add:

I have heard Kinect will make it to PC so proof of concept there will be no difference in that aspect. Also if devs wrote and coded for Wiimotes, they can be applied to PC as well. They utilize bluetooth to connect the controllers and you can use a wireless sensor bar with PC.

computers are NOT meant for gaming nor they are designed for gaming in the first place. consoles are meant for gaming. and no, no body knows about the inside of Xbox 360 and PS3, its all speculation and fake assumptions. the parts inside those consoles are mystery. computers are just for business use and studying.

in fact, we are violating the law of physics and technology by playing games on our computers. thats why there are consoles. they are made to play games on.

in fact, we are violating the law of physics and technology by playing games on our computers. thats why there are consoles. they are made to play games on.

The first software used in modern computers are games and word processors, so I don't get what you mean. Unless you are pertaining to the vacuum tube "computers", or the mechanical ones similar to the one pioneered by Pascal.

But then again the first "computer game" was actually played in such a machine, and not in one that is similar to our modern (digital) computer.
