Getting a tattoo adds so much to the gameplay, sleeping:

Ahh to be a PC-Only Gamer - Games released incomplete because developers know they can just slap a patch on whenever they feel like it. . .10 hour games completed in a day with the "full story" released as an expansion pack prompting gamers to pay 100 or so bucks for the "complete" adventure. . .getting the "pleasure" of upgrading your system every 6months for the "honor" of playing the latest overhyped release (that Doom3 sure was a winnar wasnt it!). . .etc. etc. -

I'd much rather take "subpar" graphics with incredible gameplay to basically watching a graphic designers wet-dream anyday - thank you and have a nice day.

Its rare that games do get released "incomplete", ps2 and gamecube, games work out of the box, why? Because theyre a fixed platform, they all have the same comonents so if a game works on one it will work on them all. Now consider how many components make up a pc, consider theres literally hundreds of different motherboard brands and a lot more that are just baseline motherboard with no real brand. same goees for sound cards, memory and a load of different pci devices, tv cards, tuners etc.

Then you have to factor in drivers, is a driver for an unbranded sound card causing a bug or is it one of the other components. Theres literally thousand of different pc configurations available, each one with their own little quirks, no way any game developer can get each one of these configurations in for testing, some countries may have makes of sound cards\ram that others dont. Its not a bit of wonder that some games dont work on some pc's, console makers have a hell of a lot of an easier time because if a game works on one playstation or one xbox its gonna work on them all.

Pc gaming by far is a lot better than console gaming, can consol games have mods? nope, can console games get updated? with the exception of xbox, nope. Consoles get outdated graphically fast, pc's have new hardware around every so many months that surpases consoles. Is it expensive? yeah, so what, it can be considered a hobby and some of those are expensive.


Anyway.

Go play halflife 2, and shut the hole.
