At least the other guys were mentioning reasonable prices with the 400-500 buck PCs, but you jumped in here with 1000. Im not paying 1000 bucks to save a little bit on some super old games. And even then, the prices you mentioned for the games arent even a deal because Mass Effect 2 was on sale for 5 bucks very recently on the consoles as well, and right now the game is actually more expensive on Steam than it is on consoles. A game like Kingdoms of Amalur is 15 bucks more expensive on Steam right now.

If you only buy old games during Steam sales then yeah you can save but you can also save a lot if you wait on the consoles. The only PC games im interested in are the indie titles and i can play those on my laptop.

Nah breh, those crazy ass sales happen quickly on the PC. Arkham City was already down to $12

but I missed it

Check out the humble bundle. 8 games for $8.05 and I believe you get the soundtracks as well

The Humble Indie Bundle V (pay what you want and help charity)

Bastion, Super Meat Boy, Limbo, SuperBrothers: Sword and Sorcery, Braid, Lone Survivor, Amnesia, and Psychonauts. That's an absolute steal of a price.

Its hard to change breh. Been a console gamer my whole life and I don't think I can give up on them just yet.

You talking to someone who checks CAG daily, i know when the sales take place for both console and PC. I bought 5 Batman Arkham City's for 360 for 10 bucks a piece months ago when i was flipping them for credit at Gamestop. Recent PC games are rarely 75% off 1 month after release like some of yall would have us believe. The big Steam sales happen twice a year so depending on the game and the time frame in which they release you can see a good deal then. Thats the main benefit of the PC, you know exactly when all these games are going on sale so you can just wait until then to load up. On console you can get deep discounts but you have to a lot more work to take advantage of the sales. And like i said, if you were to just buy games on a whim you may end up paying more for the Steam version like you would be doing right now for Kingdoms of Amalur.

In your later post you mentioned Gamefly, now if you have been doing your homework you know Gamefly offers crazy deals for console games all the time too. A couple times a year they try to empty out stock of games that arent being rented as much so you get super low deals.

That aint even true. Steam constantly has sales.

Not the big sale that everyone hypes up and anticipates. Those happen twice a year.

Been a PC gamer and Console gamer all my life.

Played Counter-strike professionally for a few years in my early teens before I realized what a frustrating existence it was. Losing the match when 10 grand is on the line is

That doesnt change the fact that games are constantly on sale there.

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

after playing max payne 3 on my pc i'm considering copping battlefield 3 and crysis 3 on the pc.

 

[kevm3]

Only reason I don't cop competitive FPS's on PC is that I don't really like using mouse and keyboard. I'm a controller fan, and you will get destroyed going against mouse and keyboard players while using a controller.

I guess you gotta be a real gamer to invest that much money into a computer...

All my friends I know have consoles... "pick up & go" gaming & I don't know one nikka that has a PC for games except my little brother & that's only because he works for THQ...

I gotta respect ya'lls level of Gamerism... I've just had a 360 for years... buy a few sports games here & there... couple shooters, fighters, etc & I'm happy... when I see threads like this I know I'm not really all that into games as I used to be but I guess I also don't have time like that...
