The product is not worth the price when it comes to PCs.

you can't say that because it depends on what you want. if you want to play games, ok buy an fps. if you want to browse the internet, have a proper multimedia station, use photoshop, use a calculator, make music, have a million gigs of porn, etc. then how is the product not worth the price? i will gladly pay $1,000 to have a machine that does all these things and so much more. you're wrong.

On console it is easier to do it wrong...but when it is right...there is no reason to play PC FPS games over consoles...it's pretty much same shit almost.

how you can say they are the same shit is beyond me. mouse vs. joystick + autoaim? yeah, that's different shit. you're wrong.

as gerv said, no one has to pay "thousands of dollars", a simple graphics card update here and there is all you need.

plays all games at top quality, but that quality will never exceed the console. graphics on pc games can grow as the pc grows; rather than waiting 4 years for the next console to come out. so you're pretty much wrong here.

best choice for who? it's subjective. i like to play an fps properly, in which i have full control over my aim and range of control. i also enjoy having the ability to change graphic options. i enjoy being able to mod games. so you're wrong here again.

again, you just said you can't prove pc's are a better choice compared to consoles; but you can say consoles are the better choice to pc's? how does that fucking work?





you are both a hypocrite; and insanely wrong. it boggles my mind, i knew you were stupid to begin with but god damn. it seems as you've grown older you've gotten worse. even that doesn't make any sense.

Gabe Newells take on pc gaming, some of the highlights:

According to Gartner Group data, there are over 260 million online PC gamers, with 255 million new PCs being sold in 2007. Steam alone has 15 million connected gamers, with 1.25 million peak connected gamers, and 191% year-over-year growth; Valve was quick to point out that Steam represents just one of many online distribution systems.

"This is a market that dwarfs the size of any of the proprietary closed platforms," Newell said. He noted that the vast difference in scale between PC and console platforms means that PC continues to be the platform with the most capital investment, allowing it to drive the innovation and technology development that eventually trickles down to consoles.

Newell then returned to his "perception problem" angle. "We don't really have a champion of the PC platform. If you write a story about the Xbox 360, there's just an army of people who are going to descend on you to make that picture look as polished and rosy as possible. Same things for the other consoles - but there's no equivalent on the PC, and the people who are traditionally driving these messages, like Microsoft or Intel or Apple are, for various reasons, not very effective champions."
