Your point being?
Dust won't run on a PC, and Legion won't be released any time soon, if ever (just look at the fate of all other games/projects they've been working on since they launched EVE). If they break the trend and actually release Legion, my guess is it will run poorly on your, by then very outdated, build. |

On Steam alone I have 60 games all playable
I build a new machine I keep my Hard Drives ( data on them as well)
I use the same case Antec Nine hundred 2 Ver 3
I use the same Ram Corsair 1600 8GB
Use the same DVD drive idk its a cheap 52x dvdr drive (IBM i think)
all 60 of those games run on this new PC
I just did a new build my total cost was $365 (I5 4670K and Z87 G45)
thats less than a PS4 or Xbone
I'm mainly putting this here for the people who are saying a gaming PC is too expensive
EDIT those 60 are not counting the F2P games

Fair enough ;).
Can't really say I've seen anyone saying that though. Well, not anyone apart from the people who are trying to convince others that they should get a PC, that is. |

To be honest, you can build a very solid PC right now for roughly $800 (using your current TV as a monitor if you're too cheap to actually buy another monitor). It will last you for the foreseeable future. Technology isn't getting that much better any time soon. We've already approached and hit that limit of expansion on the nano-scale level that the speeds aren't going to be "that" much faster 2, 4, 6, or 8 years from now (Moore's Law). Things are only going to get cheaper and cheaper because they aren't getting any smaller. Sure you can cram another two cores into a processor but it's not necessary to get anything more than a quad core right now and these are standard.
So, $800 today, or $600 tomorrow (when Legion is ever released). It's still going to be an improvement at very low cost. (And for those that can't afford a computer at this price, you need to get a ******* job and stop crying about being poor you lazy fucks. Just because you can't afford one doesn't mean the world has to continue producing **** games on **** consoles. Adapt or die.)

Funny how this is all in USD, try living in England where everything you mentioned costs about the same but in Sterling, you're looking at almost twice as much for a basic gaming rig.
Sure I could build a PC that will suffice, but it's not going to last very long and will need an upgrade within the year. |

Its more like -ú50 difference
I built a similar budget pc in Feb, case, 550w psu, 4gb ram, mainboard, I5, r7 260x, 1tb hd, dvd drive, cpu fan and thermal paste for -ú520, however the cpu came with a fan and pre-appiled paste so i could have saved -ú30 there

I dont like PC gaming cause i constantly have to upgrade the thing to keep playing new games. Which is just bollocks. I would rather get a PS4 and be happy till the next generation comes around the corner then constantly throwing money at a PC to keep it running. |

How about we wait for legion to come out and we know the prerequisite to be able to run it.
At that point parts for the PC might be cheaper or better parts for equal price come out. |

I have seen a few console folks saying that in my lifetime. At least in person. Although the principle reason they don't switch over is because consoles have standardized hardware while PCs don't.
The downside of consoles is that you have to deal with some games that are exclusive to one specific console and not the other especially if you happen to like that game plus the issue of backwards compatibility. This forces you to invest more money than is necessary. On the PC, you don't have to worry about exclusivity between your PC and an Apple computer as almost every PC game company make the games work on both Windows (currently from as far back as XP to Windows 8) and several of Apple's OS versions all at once.
But I won't lie. The lack of standardized hardware among PCs and even Macs makes it an issue for developers who have to account for the variations of the hardware between every user out there plus the various softwares that are running these computers. This brings about a situation in which one PC user is having the time of his life while another PC user is having trouble loading up his game while another user is experiencing frame rate issues.

Time it right as the new gen stuff comes out and grab the previous gen hardware for much cheaper. Shop around and get deals when things go on sale. Do it right the first time and you won't need to upgrade significantly for years and years. The only thing I've added in the last 3 years is a second video card once the prices on them dropped. Things like cases, power supplies and monitors all carry over on most major upgrades so it's not like your building a new computer every few years. Whatever you do don't buy a pre-built one from anywhere, do it yourself and save yourself a bundle.
Your game f'ing sucks, but I'll still play it, damn you! Turns out I wont.

i kinda get his point dude
some people work 40 hours a week and still have only a little money to spare after their bills and if they have kids then its even harder.
not talking about the people who try to act like they cannot get a job.
if you don't have a job your not trying hard enough to find one or you live in a reaallly small community and are without the transportation to get to a community that has said job.
but it doesnt mean you have to be a kitten

The GPU is much less powerful than the PS4's ~7870. Source Plus it has a measely 1 GB of VRAM, the PS4 has 8 GB shared between the CPU and GPU. You could always get a 2 GB 7870 for ~ $170.
You forgot a $50 blurray drive and a $50 blurray plaback software
You have to add the cost of windows, otherwise you are stealing. I might as well say just buy a stolen ps4 for $200....
These alone put you at +$240 above where you were at.
Your system requires a decent amount of power as well, Over 450 watts . The MB alone is 137 watts while gaming (non-overclocked)
The power savings alone will pay for PSPlus and an additional free game every single year, or a brand new console every 4 years, just in power savings.
You can easily get steam pricing on just about any console game at any time of year if you shop around, this isn't to mention the fact that you will get 24+ free AAA games every year from PSPlus.
PCs are not economically competitive with consoles for gaming. Stop saying that they are.

So -ú150 more for a PC that is outdated by the time you've built it? Grats.
Consoles have a lot longer lifecycle than a PC because the hardware never changes, and developers optimise over the course of development cycles and for this reason alone a -ú350 PS4 will always be a better investment for gaming. |

If they break the trend and actually release Legion, my guess is it will run poorly on your, by then very outdated, build. To be honest, you can build a very solid PC right now for roughly $800 (using your current TV as a monitor if you're too cheap to actually buy another monitor). It will last you for the foreseeable future. Technology isn't getting that much better any time soon. We've already approached and hit that limit of expansion on the nano-scale level that the speeds aren't going to be "that" much faster 2, 4, 6, or 8 years from now (Moore's Law). Things are only going to get cheaper and cheaper because they aren't getting any smaller. Sure you can cram another two cores into a processor but it's not necessary to get anything more than a quad core right now and these are standard. So, $800 today, or $600 tomorrow (when Legion is ever released). It's still going to be an improvement at very low cost. (And for those that can't afford a computer at this price, you need to get a ******* job and stop crying about being poor you lazy fucks. Just because you can't afford one doesn't mean the world has to continue producing **** games on **** consoles. Adapt or die.) From what you've written here, it's safe to assume you're a ****. Read the above post and stop assuming everyone who can't afford a PC is lazy you ignorant ****. You mad bro? Jobless bro? Get a life.
Someone farted in your cornflakes didn't they!
I was a little mad yeah, certainly not jobless and I have a great life. I live in my own house, with my awesome fiancee who is also a gamer (who owns her own business and has a 26 hour week working for another business).
However, after rent and bills and food, I have a wedding to save for and other things too like my hobbies.
Just because people can't afford the one thing that quite clearly defines what it means to have a life in your opinion, doesn't mean that they don't have one. |

Getting a PC for a game that may never even be released is pointless. And even if it is there is no gauranttee that it will have everything they are promising to put into it. Remember they made the same promises with dust to get people to play that and they didnt keep them now they are making those promises for Legion and im willing to bet they wont keep those promises either. In conclusion if you get a PC now before ever finding out if they actually are releasing the game for PC and before they even put anything in the game they promised then you might as well eat your wallet now. Also they are using a modified version of UE3 not UE4 so i doubt the game will be/run any better than Dust regardless of the system.

You are a disgrace to the human race if you really believe everyone out there can simply "get a job" Not everyone can work (example: they are on dissability and disability only allows you to earn so much before they start deducting from your monthly check) Discriminating pieces of garbage like you should be shot, castrated, shot again, skinned alive, tarred and feathered, shot again, put into a wood chipper, then set on fire.

Thats a matter of opinion. What if I like dota2 and hate GTA?
It boils down to what you like to play. |

Funny thing is, this is EXACTLY the same argument most against Legion, and PC fps in general, use. We don't like FPS on PC, which means that any amount of depth, meta, co-op, video quality, etc increases do not matter to us. It will still be shite in our eyes because it isn't on a console because that's what we signed up for. Thank you for validating my position...but his, not so much. |

Do it right the first time and you won't need to upgrade significantly for years and years. The only thing I've added in the last 3 years is a second video card once the prices on them dropped. Things like cases, power supplies and monitors all carry over on most major upgrades so it's not like your building a new computer every few years. Whatever you do don't buy a pre-built one from anywhere, do it yourself and save yourself a bundle.
I'm still using a computer that cost around 600 bucks after various deals on Newegg, and it's very future proof, and it was made in 2011! With my GTX 570, which still hasn't found a game to fully utilize it (besides star citizen, later), it's the best investment, and I guarantee it will play anything the PS4 can play, except at true 1080p.
For 200 more dollars than a PS4, you can make a PC like mine that I use for EVERYTHING. You can't have 3 monitors with Netflix on one montior, a game on another monitor, and forums on the third monitor, without having to convert to the PC gaming aspect.
I love seeing people argue against PC, but honestly, I've seen my fair share of these threads, and there are more positive arguments than negative when it comes to getting a gaming PC, especially since a lot of newer console games are taking out the co-op play, which is my only reason I use one with (everything is better on PC if you are by yourself). Plus, LAN parties with computers are a must for everyone to enjoy before they die. |

On Steam alone I have 60 games all playable I build a new machine I keep my Hard Drives ( data on them as well) I use the same case Antec Nine hundred 2 Ver 3 I use the same Ram Corsair 1600 8GB Use the same DVD drive idk its a cheap 52x dvdr drive (IBM i think) all 60 of those games run on this new PC I just did a new build my total cost was $365 (I5 4670K and Z87 G45) thats less than a PS4 or Xbone I'm mainly putting this here for the people who are saying a gaming PC is too expensive EDIT those 60 are not counting the F2P games
Two flaws: one your system is still severely over priced [because if you were REALLY being a budget PC builder you should be able to build a system all under $500 and still play current games] and, secondly, saying you have 60 games on steam is nice and dandy as they often give some pretty crappy games for free as well but at least I've gotten 10+ triple-A titles on Sony for $35 and these were games I intended to buy that Steam would NEVER give away for free.
It's a reason why people play consoles because sometimes gaming on it is cheaper and you should either downgrade that processor to an AMD -FX and invest in a heftier graphics card or simply use the i5 solo as its internal on-die gpu is a bit beefier than a midline graphics card at times. An AMD build should be $350 w/out OS and an Intel build should be under $500 if your really making it a budget PC. |

didnt say anything about being budget
and i dont use AMD CPUs i dont want to get into the debate of which is better you will not convince me that amd makes good CPUs
however ATI (AMD) make good GPU
I've been repairing computers for some time now and i have been seeing (for the last 4 years) Nvidia cards burn themselves right out
even seen melted plastic (no overclocking applied)
I do use the Intel HD 4000 (built in graphics) on my laptop
they play many console games well
but my laptop was $760
the avergae spent on laptops is about $500 (average as in a lot of people buy a laptop for $350 some for $400 and some for $650)
see you on other games
