Survey: PC or Console

Re: Survey: PC or Console

Incidentally, anyone who says console over PC is only saying so because their PC is garbage or they haven't invested where one needs to.

Yeah, just speak for yourself, my PC is freaking great, I'm just more biased to consoles, sorry that I have different viewpoints in gaming.

Re: Survey: PC or Console

I prefer PCs, however I typically use consoles as my computer's specs aren't too good.

Does anybody care about vicious rhetorical questions?

Then I can only guess that your opinion has to be based around natively available software.

Sorry, but when I think about comparing hardware, I only compare the actual merits of the hardware and only consider external elements like software if they come out equal.

What we're talking about here are all computers. One kind of computer has essentially no customizability, the other lets you do anything you want with it. One has a select library of software with more than a few highly desirable exclusives, the other has a larger library of software with functions that go above and beyond (yet lacks as many highly desirable exclusives).

I don't have a 42" 1080p monitor for my PC and I'm too lazy to run it to the TV and I enjoy my console games way more(this is the big part of it) so: console. ^____^

I liked my SNES more, but this comes about as close to my opinion as it gets.

Re: Survey: PC or Console

I never did the whole hook my dual shock up to my computer thing. I imagine for some games it's pretty cool though. I always wanted to try The Oath in Felghana out with a controller.

Re: Survey: PC or Console

Cost of a PC is irrelevant. I got a cheap Dell for non-gaming reasons, plunked a 40 dollar video card in it, and now I can use it for 1920x1080 WoW with moderate graphic settings. I was going to buy the PC regardless of its functionality for gaming graphics, so the only expense I consider in terms of gaming-on-PC is the additional expense of the 40 dollar graphics card (that frankly isn't even necessary for playing old emulation).

Oh, and a controller if that floats your boat. How much are dualshock to USB converters these days? Like 5 bucks? 10 bucks?

Oh, and HTPC functionality is also largely irrelevant. I've got my cheap Dell hooked up to my TV and using the 40 dollar graphics card, it has no problem putting out a 1920x1080 image at 60hz. Now, it can't do Blu-ray due to lack of BD drive, but it could definitely output the video portion with ease, although it'd be at 60 hz. The image is stored on the disc at the film's native 24 fps, so it'd need to be able to do 120 hz output, but since my TV can't handle 120 hz ANYWAY, I really don't care. Not that any of you folks would be able to tell the difference between a 24 fps on a 120 hz screen and a 30 fps on a 60 hz screen when they both come from a source at 24 fps native. Oh, and my video card only has DVI and VGA, so despite the fact that it could push the pixels, it'd have a hard time remaining consistent in a HT world where everything is HDMI now.
