Graphics Are Not All That Better:You guys say that the graphics on a PC are better, but I see little difference. Two or three more specks of dirt per square inch, but that's it. And before you call the consoles awful at graphics, check out Halo 4.


You REALLY need to get your eyes checked. Graphics are undeniably better on PC.

You can get a controller for the PC.
True. I like to plug in my PS3 controller and play N64 games.

PC don't just provide better graphics, they provide better performance. It's great to


Because you're a console gamer. You are desensitized to using a keyboard and mouse for playing to long with a controller.

Keyboard and mouse allows for precision and faster reaction times, you move as fast as you can move your mouse, not as fast as your character turns.


It's far harder to game with PC. You have to move your hands to get between all the buttons which slows you down. In your hands the games' controller is far easier too handle without having to reposition your hands. It's far easier on console. I do both so I know.


You know you can get a controller for the PC right.


Yeah. Another cost for PC gaming, seriously it's far cheaper to game on consoles.


You can get one for like 10 buks of the internet.

It easier for you, but not everyone. I know plenty of people who are baffled by a dual-anolouge controller. Granted, they aren't gamers, but they can use a keyboard and mouse better just because it's a familiar tool for them. Personally, I picked up the keyboard/mouse syle much faster than I mastered a controller.

I have been PC gaming for years. I still can't get used to it. I picked up a console controller and was instantaneously able to use it. Therefore it is easier than the complex controls of the PC because there are less buttons so it is easier to manipulate than PC.

Generalizations.
Helping idiots hate other idiots since people have existed.

I don't have the technical know-how to build a PC. Nor do I care enough about gaming to bother to learn how to. Gaming is a small, unimportant part of my life that I don't think is worth spending much time or money on.

So console for me.

I can't aim with mouse because it takes a while for the computer to recognise that I'm moving my mouse and I will usually over shoot. And the keyboard. I can type and use a mouse very well but I can't use both simultaneously.

There is no master race.

Fanboyism/fangirlism blinds so many in this forum, some to the point where the path to enlightenment may never be seen.

Total buddhist monk moment.

Before you reply and call me an idiot(inb4 notice), hear me out. A console can become dated over time, sure. But what else they offer makes them better:

I'm lazy.

Dude, then either have a poor mouse or an old one that uses pointer acceleration. Or your drivers are slow/outdated. Can't fault you for going away from the lag though; PC gaming is expensive and requires more matinence than consoles.

I don't think you understood me.

I don't care about gaming like you do. Gaming is unimportant to me. It has no value to me. You could tell that I could never play video games again, and I wouldn't care.

I don't care about 60FPS vs 30FPS. I don't care about PC mods. I really don't care because gaming is such a small, insignificant part of my life now.

You won't convince me to spend a few hundred bucks on something that I don't care about.

DMR FTW!!!!!!!

um, learning what your specs is not that hard, you can usually just Google : can my computer play [insert game title here].

also, nvidia offers to maximize your gpu settings within their site; you just select the gpu you have, and the title of the game

Consoles don't have Starcraft and Diablo so the PC is already better.


I would actually say that is a big plus for consoles. I hate starcraft and diablo games.

And you shouldn't get a gaming PC. For most people, a console is a great option; one intitial investment, free firmware updates and patches, and generally solid-running games. I still play games on my Xbox 360 because it's a good system, just outdated.

Before you say "check the specs u noob," remember that I don't want to spend a million years memorizing what each individual component of my PC

It takes less than 5 minutes to memorize it.

You're not right. You are just lazy.

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY CHROME.

You literally have no idea how big the graphical differences between consoles and PC can be. It's more than just a few specs of dirt. We're talking twice the texture resolution, more things happening at once, faster frame rates etc etc. PCs are FAR superior in graphical terms.

  • 01.03.2013 6:50 PM PDT

The world is not beautiful: And that, in a way, lends it a sort of beauty.

~Kino's Journey

The money you save from steam sales, and the overall lower cost of PC games easily offsets the "high" start up cost that gets everybody's panties all twisted. This alone makes PC the master race.

And piracy isn't bad.

exactly! For example, I would prefer to play some console games with a mouse, and key board. but on the other hand, I would like to play some computer games with a controller (which I can). Consoles have lots of things backing them, and PC gaming has a lot of things backing it. All in all, there are tones of factors that people like and dislike at the end of the day its preference.

Here is a comparison of PC Battlefield 3 vs Xbox 360.

Even PC low looks a little better than the 360.

Okay, alright, I got you.
But, there's one thing that sets PC gamers far ahead: they're able to actually put a space between a colon and the next word.

Bam. Right there, PC > Console.

Blackness Confirmed. You've got soul.


The Ultimate Opinion.

I use console and PC equally. They are both good.

  • 01.03.2013 6:55 PM PDT

People are entitled to their opinions and preferences, that I will not argue. If you prefer consoles over PC then fine. But to say that consoles are superior to PCs is completely and absolutely wrong. The truth is undeniable (when actually looked at from a serious and rational standpoint). PCs have the edge in nearly every category, but again, if you prefer consoles then that's fine.
