Adding into the above.

Consoles are quite a VFM product with respect to PC, specially in terms of Hardware.

Example : For 16k, you get a Sony PS3 12GB with Blu-Ray Player, gaming machine, Browsing might be PITA, but still possible. You get bundled games worth of 3-5k. You can trade those used games for money, whereas PC DVD's are junk after certain period of time.

OFC, Console is limited with its functionality, but its a perfect entertainment box. Whereas you need at least 40k-50k to build a decent gaming PC.

People buy Console to play Console Exclusive games too.

How is having a BR drive for PC make it any better? You will have to install the game at the end of the day anyway.

console games are way too expensive 3-5k for a single game where in pc you can get that for 1k. My friend bought a ps3 and only game he had was fifa he never bought any game bec it was just too expensive. After 2 years he sold ps3.
I have a xbox360 and i havent used it for 16months. Its fun if you play with friends otherwise its boring.

in a 3rd world country like india its always better to buy a pc rather than a console.

Consoles for noobs. No modding, no RTS games etc.. They can only brag about some hand count console exclusives. Check the number of games which you cannot play on consoles, and number of console exclusive games(sum of xbox+ps+wii).

Dude, Consoles can be modded. You can even go for Water cooling for both Xbox 360 & PS3.

People do Jailbreak, in order to play Downloaded Games from HDD. They increase the HDD space & lot of stuffs.

Lastly, just because consoles don't have RTS Games doesn't make for Noobs. Consoles are pretty much specific devices meant only for gaming than a PC.

Will you conclude the same line for NES or Sega 16 Bit Consoles too ??

console games are way too expensive 3-5k for a single game where in pc you can get that for 1k. My friend bought a ps3 and only game he had was fifa he never bought any game bec it was just too expensive. After 2 years he sold ps3.
I have a xbox360 and i havent used it for 16months. Its fun if you play with friends otherwise its boring.

in a 3rd world country like india its always better to buy a pc rather than a console.

Rarely i have seen Console games are sold at 5k range [exceptions like Limited Edition BF3, GT5 xx edition blah blah], but end of the day once you are done with your gaming you can always get 75% of your investment back by selling the Game.

Sorry to highlight this but "Is this your console's fault, for you not having any friends for playing along with you ??"

It's the same case with PC too. If you don't find a single player in a CS GO server, then basically you are stuck with BOT's. Situation is entirely different with COD.

With the current exchange rate, be prepared to pay through your nose for even PC Games too.

Not every company is being a jackass like EA. Some of them are still selling their games around 600rs to 1.5k, and the prices go down pretty rapidly.

each have their own benefits
playing mortal kombat vs dc universe with a friend... cant imagine on PC
playing red steel with a motion controller is amazing
one or two games actually go a long way on all platforms. no problem with playing the same game over and over. just look at your steam libraries and play time, pretty sure one or two titles dominate most of the playtime (guess one is Skyrim).

freemium (game usually has a paywall)/ free 2 play (which is pay 2 win)/ in game purchases (consumables mean you can never buy out the game no matter how much you spend) models suck on all platforms

one thing that could help console gaming a long way here is if stores bought back games for 60-80% of the price on returns, so gamers can roll over the investment into new titles

Not Only EA, also with Activision, Bethesda, Konami. Still the price of COD BO 2 haven't changed, not sure what kind of game play it offers.

FINALLY! I got my fanboy :twisted:
Hand count? Dude.
Srsly.
Exclusives for each platform + standard "console" Exclusives(Available on both consoles but not on PC) look handcount for you?
Btw PC has just 2 fighting games,consoles have loads..And no games based on Animes.No variety.only FPS,RPG,RTS and some crap ports in between
What do you have in PC "exclusives"? *insert RTS game name here**insert random sh!t indie game here to look smart*

Dude.WTF are you smoking?
Games come in range of 2K-3.5K currently(excluding "special edition" crap)
BTW All EA games come in range of 3.5k too for PC,and its not much time before the games which now retail for 1.5K reach the 3K mark ;-)
Oh and btw this.
but end of the day once you are done with your gaming you can always get 75% of your investment back by selling the Game.

Realistically you would be paying around 2k for new games and 1k for old ones and 3k for pre-orders, as far as consoles are concerned. Remove 500 to 1000 from each for PC price.

Senseless i believe.

None of the games is priced more than the actual price of a new game when preordered. But if u are talking about getting the game after an year, ur price of 2K for the brand new piece of an "year old" is more or less correct.

curent gen pc games are all priced at 1.5K during release except EA games. This was around 1K some months back and I am expecting a further increase once BF4 breaks BF3 sale records after the release as more and more companies focus on making money which EA could make.

LOL WTF am I reading in this thread? :-o

Fighting games on PC:

Street Fighters
King of Fighters XIII
Yatagarasu
Skullgirls
Melty Blood
Any FG that runs on the Taito Type X/X2
Happy Battle 2
Akatsuki Blitzkampf
Crimson Alive: Extreme Encounter

As for Anime style games:

Clannad
Grisaia no Kaijitsu
Symphonic Rain
True Remembrance
Ys Chronicles
Ys: Oath in Felghana
Ever 17
Steins;Gate
Saya no Uta
Higurashi: When They Cry
Tomoyo After
Muv Luv
Kamidori Alchemy Meister
Cherry Tree High Comedy Club
Monmusu Quest! Shuushou ~Makereba Youjo ni Okasareru~

These are just from the top of my head.

PC has the Touhou Project and its intense fandom. Something consoles cannot even dream of offering.

And really, do PCs have no SHMUPs, TPSs, TBSGs, GSGs, RTTGs, TBTGs, Platformers, adventure games, Hack n Slash, stealth games, survival horror or simulation games?

The genres you listed have more variety within

The only genre that PC is lacking in would be character action games, mass action games and hunting action games. Something consoles don't have too many of either.

We also have emulation through which we can access a very large portion of the console library without leaving our shrine.

I'll take PC over Console any day. The only advantage consoles have would be their input methods at this point, but that doesn't last for long as pretty much every controller is made to work with the PC sooner or later, be it Wii Remote or Dual Shock 3.

Consoles are worth buying only for 1. Portability and 2. Exclusives, until they are emulated properly on PC.

@anorion: My Steam time is pretty evenly split in between Civilization V, Total War: Shogun 2, Empire: Total War, Napoleon: Total War and Rome: Total War :p

IMO, If someone wish to buy a Console, then he also must be clear with the Must playable games.

I don't know about Wii, but for PS3 one should play the below games without any miss.

1). God of War III.
2). GT5
3). Uncharted Series
4). GTA5
5). The Last of Us
6). Red Dead Redemption
7). Little Big Planet
8). Bioshock
9). Metal Gear Solid 4
10). Rock Band

Similarly, for Xbox

1). Gear of War
2). Forza Motorsports
3). NBA 2K14 & NHL'14
4). Halo 4
5). State of Decay
6). Skull of the Shogun
7). Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

Note : My knowledge is limited to the above list, don't know about the rest of the games.

What if I told you, MS is the real troll here, they let the developers work on a PC instead of the development kits. The $hit was so fcked up, that some of the Xbone games were ran on nvidia based PCs at E3. So the downgrades aren't surprising, and its not just Ryse, Forza is also said to be downgraded too.

I think the 1080p 60 FPS thing wont be long for consoles.
in 3-4 years time people might have easy access to 4k TV's
then it'll be
1440p(or some slightly lesser amount) 30 FPS,Upscaled to 4K
But for PC it will be
Native 2160p 60 FPS :twisted:

First preference GAMING PC + 2nd preference Console i.e Ps3 for now just for exclusives = Perfect Combo xD

Following are some can't be ignored titles that would never come to PC that made me buy PS3 along with Gaming RIG:
1. God of war series
2. Uncharted series
3. Injustice
4. Heavy Rain
5. Last of US (Best in its class)
6. Beyond two souls (Out in few days)
7. and ofcourse Wwe titles :p

Its a great time to be a pc gamer... Many console only games have been confirmed to be coming to pc. Latest being metal gear revengence, injustice, darksiders 1&2 and a lot more.
And thanks to the x86 arch of new consoles + steam os + mantle+ steam controller
Pc gaming still rocks...

*yawn*



Darksouls is a multiplat now, isn't it?

Yup... After numerous petitions for the first one and coz the first one did so well, the second followed suite.
But it was not intended for pc when it first came, it was a console exclusive.

^^we had a thread on same discussion.

seriously console can't match PC in terms of all-round performance.
Console is rigid...no config upgrade needed (the manufacture directly upgrades the whole setup PS1,PS2,PS3 etc)
a console version dominates for 1 or 2yr (then there is a change in version) but the figures are not accurate though ;)
PC dominates hardly 1yr to 6months and there is a new GPU,CPU beast lurking in the market
hold a motion controller and enjoy console games (kinect,PS move etc)
The Benchmark of PC,Extreme Over clocking..console can't compete in that

so from a tiny task to a huge task PC is the evergreen champion

whatever it may be..still PC wins hands down
though as I said console has its benefits
u don't need installation (plug & play) in console
in PC u will have to look for free space first before installing a game
any gamer will need a big pocket size before buying console (coz of cost of console titles as compared to PC)
though console gamers most of the time do this :bananana: for console Xclusive titles

then u don't need to open your console for cleaning purpose which PC users bound to do once in every 3~6 months

in terms of ease of use/access I prefer Console anyday..

depends on your interest if u wanna OC then go ahead

OC is necessary.
An OC'ed HD 7970 is equal in performance to AMD's recently announced R9 280X graphics card
so basically im getting more bang for buck

that can only be said if the prev gen i.e. PS3, XB360 and Wii are to be the last of the consoles.

Mobiles have Taito. Mobile wins. EoD.

Even plant vs zombies which was a mobile game is being made into a psuedo FPS kinda game for consoles. Mobiles lose. Umm other devices win.

oh BTW gta V - im playing the game and pc users can only bite their teeth now lol

GTA V didn't release on PC?

Just googled about it. I can't believe GTA didn't come out on PC. Even RDR didn't come to PC when it released.

GTA4 didn't come out on PC at the release date either, except for a year later.

I'm absolutely new to gaming :p So I don't have much experience on gaming on both :p

So as a new gamer :p, I think we should rather focus on Gaming instead of wasting time on Console Vs PC :p

I think, we should have both..!! I loved the Uncharted Series on PS3, whereas I like playing FPS Games on PC, on controller it's too tough to point and shoot :p

But PC Gamers believe, it's really an awesome experience playing on controller :p

Though at times it becomes tough, but I'm loving it.

And graphics wise and all, yes Games are always optimized for that specialized hardware, while on PC one can get the full graphics with required hardware. But considering previous gen. PS3 and XBox released that time the graphics and hardware it consists of is awesome.

I will go for PC anytime. It takes time to get your hands adjusted on the console. There are several awesome games , which are designed for consoles like halo, uncharted, fifa street etc, for these games i try to play on console which is kind of hard for a PC gamer.

Plants vs Zombies was PC game to begin with, which was then ported to mobiles.

RDR still isnt released for PC.
