gta 5

No PC version of GTA V has been confirmed by R*; Just PS360. It looks like it will be limited to consoles, and if it does come it will be an extremely late PC port.

Grand Theft Auto V

Whether it's on a PC, console, on your phone or in your browser, we all love games. Reviews, walkthroughs, consoles, easter eggs, cheats, etc., should be posted here.

I think not.

I think not.

Yeah and thats why there are separate section for each of them. Long back when you were not here, there used to be one section for everything but things started to get messy so separate sections were made. I guess Admin forgot to edit the description, but still, its a PC section and only PC games and likes are discussed here. :|

Apr 5, 2013 at 7:56 PM
I'd assumed separate console, indie and mobile forums were there so that their discussions do not get crushed by the sheer number of PC threads/posts.

If this forum is PC only where does all the general gaming discussion which doesn't necessarily conform to one of the brackets, but is still related gaming go?

nobody said its your problem. I'm just stating the obvious.
Dumb decision to separate the PC and console threads. Its like kicking out the console gamers into a different section where there's hardly any activity. Who would want to post anything over there?

Outta that list only Watch Dog. And outside that list GTA V.
Console and PC games should always be separate! Merging them will be nonsense. If some kid likes it go there, why bother about others? Agree with Anand.

This could probably be the reason why the sections were separated, if people like you diss out console gamers(kid? seriously dude?), its obviously going to start a flame war.
Give me one good example how different the console games are compared to the PC games.
GTA5 hasn't even been announced on the PC, and its primary platforms are consoles, and its one of the most awaited game on this section...so much for the "don't post in the PC section" crap :|

Then again, the point isn't console vs PC, but the inactivity on the console section. People hardly post anything over there, so what's wrong posting console games related stuff on the PC section. Console Hardware stuff, okay it makes sense to post them in the console section, but talking about console games in the PC section? what's wrong with that?

I was talking about Exclusives. Even if you post them here, no one would give response + hard to find if someone wants to find. For e.g - Those Wii exclusives posted in this thread.

You do know that you are free to ignore the exclusives and discuss the PC/cross platform games.

If you watch the trailers and know the pedigree of the developers of the Wii U exclusives you have plenty of reason to be excited.

And Japan :p. If you are waiting for it to be unofficially imported from Singapore, you will be waiting for a long time. No nintendo title other than Mario, Pokemon and Zelda gets imported to India, let alone a JTRPG with a history of mediocre sales that has no audience in India. I've preordered it on Amazon UK and it should ship on the 18th.

Now that it has an announced release date I can add Tales of Xilla to my list.



Injustice: Gods Among Us also looks pretty cool.

Disagree. Rome Total War with improved graphics, AI and game mechanics, not to mention economy, diplomacy and spies/assassins - I can't wait for it. It help that it will be priced at Rs 999 here :)

And it also helps that I have an HD7950 :D

Huh, no. As bippukt has mentioned, R2:TW has more awesome and deeper gameplay and battles. AC4 is based around the aspect that justified AC3 as a game, so it is reason to be excited for.

Even if X turns out to be a sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles, It will be the sequel to the greatest RPG ever by one of the best game studios in the world, directed by the an awesome game director, scored by the best Anime composer, with executive production by Tetsuya Takahashi, one of the best producers in the world. It is being published by nintendo so I don't think it will be dumbed down/rushed for mass market appeal. That gives me plenty of reason to be excited.

Thinking that Tales of Xilla is a sequel would be like thinking that FFXIII is a sequel to FFXII. Every Tales of game is set in its one timeline with little to nothing to do with the other tales of games.

For me excitement means that I don't know what to expect or know only some part of it. In most prequels and sequels you can predict everything except some exceptional games this year like Bioshock Infinite and Tomb Raider Reboot.

Excitement:

Noun
(uncountable) the state of being excited (emotionally aroused).

Excited:

Adjective
Having great enthusiasm.

I guess your definition of 'excitement' and the general consensus differs on what it means :p
I find it possible to be excited for sequels and prequels due to the fact that we have some idea of what to expect and a greater chance that the game will be awesome.

Excitement doesn't mean that :p

What you mean to say is that what excites you is not knowing what to expect, and that is a perfectly valid thing. Even I find that the unknown excites the most. That is why AoE was so exciting. Or Doom. Or Rome Total War. Or why Assassin's Creed III just didn't make me want to play it, whereas I played the original AC like a madman (imagine near 100% humidity with 40+ degrees temperatures, and just the fan to keep me company).

To be honest, though, with strategy games it is hard to get the unexpected. They are all, in the end, Explore -> Exploit -> Expand -> Exterminate.

That depends. If you want a purely turn based strategy game, then there is no better place to start that Civilization V. Preferably the Gold Edition, if you can get it. The game is popular, not too complicated and looks good as well. TBS games generally don't look too good.

If you are more of space game type, then definitely buy the Galactic Civilizations Ultimate Edition. The game is deep, the AI is very good. But the game is a bit old by now. One of the best things about it is Ship customization. As you will be fighting in space, your ships are your units. You decide everything about a ship, beginning with the hull size. A smaller hull means a cheaper ship but less space. On the hull, you place engines if you want (to increase speed per turn), the weapon types and their numbers (eg you can have a missile weapon and a laser weapon or several of them on the same ship), the armour/shields, the sensors (to 'see' far), the life support (to increase the range beyond your territory that you can travel) and special modules, if any, like troop transport. You can have a fleet of lots of small ships or choose to build a few huge Dreadnoughts! It is a really good game if you like TBS games.

If you are into fantasy, you can get Heroes of Might and Magic VI.

If you want a combination of TBS and RTS, try Shogun 2 Total War.

^ Hmm, I do want pure turn based, so I guess I'll go with Civilization V (checked out it's Wikipedia page and it's concepts sound nice as well). Thanks!

Well my English is not that great but thanks for clarification of my point. Thats exactly what I meant.
If you say about Strategy games then in some games there is a learning curve and others have other things. For e.g - Red Alert 3 have Sub Commander thing while CnC 3 Tiberium Wars don't have that but still it feels great. Also some have upgrades and all and some don't. XCOM for example have some other managements too. These are the things that excites me or something new on the table.
