What advantages does PC have over the next gen consoles?

Is it cheaper?

Can you play on your living room HD TV?

Is it going to have new and better IPs?

Count me in. These mothafukkas at sony are trying to push a "Share" button controller on the masses. I'm straight. Time to get my gaming PC. Enough of the bullshyt. And I don't even care what the Xbox 720 is going to do.

Most ignorant statement ever and that's as a PC gamer myself. All those features may exist on PC but it's not centralized among a single community. Also what about the exclusive IP's?? Sure you can play Watchdogs but what about Sony First party titles or even the typical Halo? It's silly people talking about "well guess i'll get two 680's" when you know damn well you hardly can take advantage of it since most games hardly are optimized. The few games that are are kind of wack like Crysis.

PC: pick your graphics, cheap games directly on your hard drive, yes you can hook it up to your TV with an HDMI cable, and yes the PC has the BEST versions of multiplatform games, period, not to mention tons of indie development

How many PC games you know are not optimized for it other than gta4? Which can be ran on max on even mid range PC now. You call running games at 30fps optimized?

 

[Bud Bundy]

yeah pc is looking better and better.

I am going that way. I don't need to play uncharted or halo.

 

[Slaimon Jr]

pc is a great option, once all u people realize all the things u need to get to actually build a descent gig tho.. u'll change ur mind.

How does the share button turn you off to the system?

There are plenty of functions and abilities of consoles that not everyone will use or care about.

You act like games won't work unless you use the share button or someshyt.

I didn't mention anything about 30fps being optimized as the benchmark this gen. I'm well aware that PC is >>>>>>>>>>in terms of raw visual output.

Also I don't know exactly how much games but the fact that Skyrim can't be run on a gfx card that came out in 2006 as good as a 360 says alot.

Basically...and lmao @ nikkas sayin its cheaper...if u want somethin decent...it damn sure aint...only thing cheaper is the games themselves...2 gtx 680s DEF aint cheaper...

These guys surely think building a gaming pc is just plug and play. Even then the fact that you have such overhead like Windows, drivers, hard drive fragmentation, hard drive speed etc that factor in how your games perform, it becomes frustrating.

It took me me little while to get Far Cry 3 running almost perfectly to my satisfaction on my rig. It was worth it no doubt, but joe blow who just pops cd's in, and play won't want to be messing with some system.cfg file, deleting entries and setting up executables to work in with Windows. Case in point: Recently I bought Crysis on steam and it didn't even work. It doesn't work out the gate without you finding a fix that's not even official. I had to download a folder, rename it and run a file from there to get it to work.

shyt like that never happens on console.

If you've never pc gamed, I'd go for a "trial" period before building a 1000+ system. Besides, a lot of guys hack on pc and it's much harder to detect for the most part. Now if your playing something offline then it's all good I guess but the only reason why I haven't is the

prices and the amount of my family/friends that own console. If I bought a pc, I'd be the only one that I know of that has one and plays competitively. I'd rather buy a console and wait for that next gen 2k football
