fuking retards that say to get a console

i hate people that say "GET A FUCKING CONSOLE" all you people like that fuck off PC is the far best gaming platform one thing YOU DONT HAVE TO BUY ALL GAMES like 3/4 of all pc games are free that are independent and anoher thing gaming is FREE online you dont have to pay the fucking 15$ a month for online and almost every single game for pc is way better then any console game will ever be and you can have mods for games so you dont get fucking bored like the second time you play it so fuck off console fan boys

Ok, well seeing as how no one has ventured an opinion, I shall say my part.

To argue, the reason consoles are often favoured over computers is simply gameplay. The reason game consoles were created i the first place was to ensure constant system specs, and ease of use when developping games. When buying a console you are buying everything (minus, of course the peripherals)  you need to experience the game at its fullest. No lag, no bullshit. Plug, play and go.

I also have to say three things:

1st- The Xbox 360 was released with the XNA developper platform. Oh look, its open source! All the latest systems (and even older ones) supported homebrew and mods.

Educate yourself.

2nd- Free Online computer games? Are you serious? Many of the popular online games (think WoW style MMORPGs) charge monthly, even many free online games charge for extra content.

Ever been online with the PS3? Guess what, it's free.

3rd- Lastly after everything else, you can just install Linux or another similar OS on your console and (careful now!) it's a PC.
Who'd of thunk it?

I love my PC, I play quite a bit of online games on it, but you my friend, made me ashamed to have done so. You make real gamers sad.

Agreed.

Listen, kid, PCs and consoles were made for different things. One isn't superior to the other; fanboys just try to say that one is better than the other. You want quick FPSs, it's mostly on PC. You want a platformer, console's perfect for it. I could go on.

That being said, learn basic grammar, most notably punctuation. It'll make it less obvious you're 13.

but, I play both

I, for one, love developing towards moving targets. I love receiving all the pain associated dealing with shitty manufacturer drivers and unknown user system environments.

Buy a Dell. Bring lots of $$$.

Prebuilt computers are terrible for their prices. Buy parts individually and build your own rig and you'll get more bang for your buck.

"The PCBOX360 and the PSC", you could build a computer better than what these 'consoles' are handing out alot cheapter than what they charge for them.

But in the long run the console is cheaper

LOL NO YOU DONT IDORT

But seriously, I can enjoy both platforms for their strengths and weaknesses. Easier to manage a console than a PC, but PC's where it's at for the upper echelons of gaming.

You didnt read the thread did you? OP is slighlty more than clueless. Send OP your email if you're so willing to waste your time.

Retard. With a console you get your hands around the controller like a big pair of tits. With PC gaming it's "Oooooh, moving this mouse up and down feels like a penis!!"

>>12

not to validate this conversation as anything more than completely retarded, but holding a controller in your lap is much closer to holding your cock than holding a mouse about nipple-high on a desk in front of you.

also, you're all idiots.

I say ignore them.  It's no big deal.  Also, your acting the same way as console fanboys.

>>13

I'm with you on that.

Every body just needs to stfu and deal with the fact that fanboys are fanboys.  People yelling about what's best is never going to change, just as longcat will always be long.

At least console fans are more likely to have money, a social life, and no need to get new hardware just to get a game to work.

fully agree with you.
i like getting a console knowing i can play the games without worrying about my pc being able to support it. when "crysis" comes out on the pc, to play it you will need the specification of pc most people will need to shell out a fortune to use. the pc is fine but as a gaming platform the console wins.

I put my penis into my mouse.

PC games aint free online

you fucking tit

heard of broadband?

that cost moneys

GET A FUCKING CONSOLE

>>16
I fully agree with you second.

"z0mgz, did you hear about the new game coming out?? It's gonna be great, and it'll only cost $500 to run it!"

Fucking hell, why are PC gamers such almighty geeky fags? There are only 2 types of game that comes out as well: RTS, and FPS.

RTS: I love recreating historical battles *fastens glasses*

FPS: I love pretending to be a soldier with my all American hero buddies

PC gamers = cock worshippers. FACT.

IMA SUC YO DICK!!!! *SLIRP* S*LIRP*!! SLIRP*1!!!!!!!!

PC gamers just believe they're superior because they can wank and play simultaneously.

Children stay with toys.

Adults grow up.

Which are you?

Video games are toys.  Asserting maturity based on which consumer technology box you use to play them is the kind of retardation I'd expect from 4chan.  Oops, forgot where I was again.  Poxy Alzheimer's.
