"poor girls..."

MS cut their profits and turned them into losses to sell the 360 cheaply.

PC gamers can't really do that themselves, so of course the poor people will be forced to buy a console.

 

I could show you a $600 PC built in 2006 that could achieve better quality graphics than 360, I'd imagine.

 

My point was that probably 90% or more 360 games can be got on PC, but you do have to invest a little more for a graphics card.

I agree, maybe not on the only 600 dollars, but even so, a 600 dollar computer in 2006 would have a heck of a time running todays games at all. Most developers don't scale games to allow users with low end systems to play their game on lower settings.

 

I get the anger pc gamers have against consoles, they are holding the industry back in ways, but the fact is, it's not going to change. I can pay 400 - 500 dollars and have the next 6 to 7 years of new games totally playable and looking just fine (of course , nothing compared to what current pcs look like)




#193417 Monster Hunter 3 Demo... why do i hate it?

Posted by DexterousGecko on 11 April 2013 - 05:28 PM

Monster hunter is one of the most skill based games I've ever seen. If you think it's a hack and slash game, then you are definitely missing something.

 

That said, it is a very slow paced grindy Japanese game. If you watch videos of people who are really good at MH, they make it seem so easy, but that's only because they have put in hundreds (heck thousands I'm sure) of hours into it. It is NOT a game for someone who wants to put 40 hours into a game and then move on to the next game.

Casuals.

 

360 is the poor girl's PC.

BS.

 

For better or for worse, most multi platform titles are designed with the 360 in mind.

 

Also, with the 360, you have 7 years of being able to play the newest games at a smooth frame rate (yes, lower resolution and arguably sh**ty graphics of course, no one is saying any different). Show me a computer bought 7 years ago for 400 dollars that can play skyrim or battlefield 3 at ANY resolution and you might start to have a point.

 

Despite what some PC gamers say ( and I am one ) consoles provide something pc's cannot. 




#191629 What's Your Favorite SNES Game?

Posted by DexterousGecko on 08 April 2013 - 01:37 PM

nobody else for encharted waters?

You mean uncharted waters? For sure, I loved that game. I'll be honest though, it was a little bit complicated for me at the time.




#188366 Who are the most overrated video game characters?

Posted by DexterousGecko on 30 March 2013 - 04:33 PM

I also say Master Chief from Halo. seriously whats so great about this guy?

Oh, I don't know, keeps single handedly saving the galaxy? I personally say mario. He keeps saving a girl who obviously wants to be captured. And has the vocabulary of a 2 year old. Strange though, scooby doo doesn't do much more and he could never be overrated
