+1 for "Avoid gaming gear".
Best fps mouse I ever had was a bog standard MS mouse with a trackball, and the sensitivity set way down.
Now I'm stuck with my Razor Diamondback, which is a great mouse, but it's not even in the same league as that cheap MS mouse. |

Even if you find some magical vendor that does actually sell PC releases, they are going to fleece you, and you still will not be able to trade them in after purchase, oh and quite a few PC games require at least a primary authentication through the internet.
And so we come to the truth of it, you are upset because your B.S. PCmasterrace is basically just smoke and mirrors, and now that someone is succesfully showing that
A) you will lie in order to try to make PC gaming better
and
B) consoles are way cheaper, of higher priority, and better for the majority of the planet (whether that be through less power use or because most of the planet doesn't have internet)
or
C) PC hardware =/= console hardware. Ps3 ended up putting out games with graphics and gameplay that now computer with 256 MB of system ram and a 256 MB 7800 GTX, or 8800GTX, or possibly even a 9800GTX would be able to match. Have fun with your overpriced epeen machine.
Good Lord! Where do I even begin?!
Who sells computer games anymore: You might have heard about this company called Valve. They have something called Steam. They even have sales and stuff! No? How about EA/Origin? Good Old Games?
A) No need to lie. A good gaming PC is demonstrably better than a console. The only thing consoles have going for them is convenience. An equivalent gaming PC might cost $600 today, but it will cost $450 next year, and $300 the year after.
B) See A. Plus - what the Hell does internet connections have to do with anything. You either have one or not. Consoles don't magically connect through the ether.
C) PC hardware is still following Moore's Law. If consoles followed the same progression the PS3 should cost about $37.50, not $200. |

The context in which I said who even sells PC games anymore was Brick & mortar stores, you know places where people go (Oh no.. people!!!)
Look at sales data for XBOX, only about half of their userbase even uses XBOX live, this means everyone else is not connecting to the internet. MOST OF THE WORLD DOES NOT HAVE INTERNET.
A) yes you need to lie, bottom line pricing for a gaming PC will always be $400 or above, it just so happens to get one equivalent (in specs, not performance remember) will cost you around $700 right now. In a year that PC wil be cheaper, but so might the PS4, and on top of that PS4 BRAND NEW is cheaper than the cheapest you would build a gaming PC for. It is just a no-braner that consoles are just so much cheaper.
B) Outside of the internet you can find console games everywhere in the world, you really have to search for PC game vendors, and on top of that you only find the very most popular titles.
C) PC hardware does not all follow Moore's law. Otherwise you could get 300 GB hard drives for $5. Everything has a bottom line price. Also, you will not be able to build a gaming PC w/ blurray capabilities for $200 period.. windows will be $100 of that to begin with, $100 for the blurray drive plus the software... you have no money left for a PC.
Jesus, a a lot of you PC gamers actually took the troll seriously didn't you.
PCmasterrace was a troll, it was people making fun of their own community due to the way neckbeards would act. You guys just took it and ran with it eh?
EDIT: also yes you do need a blurray in your PC if you are trying to build a PS3 or PS4 equivalent.
Name calling. Classy. I can do it too! You sound like a spoiled twelve year old brat. Are you a spoiled twelve year old brat?
And so what if half the world doesn't have an internet connection. I'm pretty sure none of them are in the market demographic for an ONLINE SHOOTER. Can't believe I actually had to spell that out for you.
Brick and mortar PC game stores don't exist any more because they're obsolete. If you have to go to a store to buy a multi-player game because you don't have an internet connection you're doing it wrong. Console gamers are saddled with MS and Sony who are so hysterical about piracy that they'd rather keep selling you physical discs than direct downloads (this is changing, but you console kiddies still have a ways to go).
And no, you don't need the blu-ray. The PC will work just fine without it (OK, I get your meaning, but you don't need it to play games on the PC like you do with most console games, again, because for most PC gamers, brick and mortar stores are obsolete).
And yes, you won't be able to build a gaming rig at the price of a PS4 today, but PC roughly doubles in power (while retaining the same price) every two years. The PS4 is locked in until they release the PS5. You can't update it no matter what.
Putting Legion on PC was a "no-braner", as your thoroughly reading comprehensive Highness said. |
