Consoles too weak for Crysis

Wasn't baggin' on him. There were actually a couple goaltenders put in that exact same position last year. It can go either way in that senario. Look at Nashville and Carolina. Anyways, yes back on topic.
 
Getting back on topic, while you mans were playing Pac Man on your PC, we were playing Streets of Rage.

While you were playing Ping Pong on your PC, we were playing Mortal Kombat.

All I'm saying is that even though PC's are better for gaming, it was the console that got shit started.

And while you mans play Counter Strike on PC, we play Halo 2 on Live, which owns Counter Strike in my opinion so STFU n00bs!

Cheah!
 
Hmm, you are so WRONG.

I grew up with Mortal Kombat and all that jazz too, I'm 21.
But I was too busy playing DOOM and Wolfenstein 3d to play too many fighting game clones. Maybe some Ultima Underworld... Gaming STARTED on computers.

When Counterstrike came out XBOX wasn't even out, comparing CS to Halo 2 is stupid and childish.
 
When I was a young lad, I started on the Intelevision, then Intelevsion 2, then NES, then Genesis and PC at the same time. I don't know that your point is, but it's apparent that you are well versed in a game I like to call "Open Mouth, Insert Foot", and made that post without taking a look at what's been said up to this point.
 
I knew you little girls would have got angry when I mentioned counter strike. Ha ha . Seeing you nerds argue is way too funny!

Halo 3 to own Crysis!

So very true. You are right and for that I congratulate you. Have a good day.
 
You sound sooo intelligent.

Yet again comparing 2 totally different games. And these ones aren't even out!

If you hate computers so much why are you on THG? A little bit of trolling hmm...

I don't hate PC's. I know they are better. I just thought I would rep consoles as there seems to be too much bias here. That's all. Sorry if I offended you in any way.
 
It sounded like you were just in for a fight, which is fine I guess. But in a place like this be ready for hell to break loose at comments such as yours. 😛

I'm not a fan of console first person shooters, but consoles in general serve their purpose very well. An Xbox360 for $400 is an excellent deal seeing as its still got pretty good hardware, and has a growing list of titles. PC gamers are often elitists or simply want the best of the best, and you get that when you spend $2000+ dollars on your machine.

Now that's what I was trying to say all along. You took the words right out my mouth.

Halo 3 for Game of the Millenium.

I'm sure an Xbox 360 version will eventually come out. But it will be severely limited in capabilities.

Console's are never (and never will be) more powerful than a good gaming PC. Especially at higher resolutions.

PC's will always have the crown no matter how hard Consoles try.
 
How old are you guys honestly? Those are some pretty uneducated remarks to make. Consoles are great gaming machines... Some of the greatest games out are for consoles only. I honestly dump almost a grand a year into computer hardware, this compares to maybe the grand that I've spent in consoles over the last 4 years... PC's will always have the leading edge when it comes to capabilities, it'll only be a short time before PC graphics will catch up to the next gen consoles. Honestly, if you can afford to keep your PC up to date with the latest gaming hardware, then you can definately afford a console... Titles like FF, GranTurismo, and MGS you can't really find outside of the console realm...

If you think that the Xbox360 is more powerful than a current high end gaming PC, you're sadly mistaken. What's in the Xbox360 is old tech. Most of us have dual core processors and the Radeon x1900xtx is out. That alone beats the 360. PS3 is the same story. nVidia's GPU in the PS3 is over 1.5 years old now. Hell, the PS3 probably won't even do SM3.0 (or the Sony equivalent). It's true that we spend thousands a year, but I also recoup a LOT of that cost by reselling old parts on eBay. I'm currently considering upgrading to dual 7900GTX's and it's only going to put me out about $250-300 after i resell my dual 7800GTX's.

You are, hwoever, right about games. There are some DAMN good games on consoles that u can't get on PC. Like Halo 2 (and eventually 3), GranTurismo, and a ton of others. BUT, the opposite is true as well. Prey is WAY better on PC, HL2: Episode 1 can't be had on console, Crysis will only be on PC (initially), and a ton of other great games never make it to console. AoE3, all the MMORPG's, Star Wars: Empire at War... and so on. IMO, in terms of pure gameplay, the PC can't be beat. The ratio of good to bad games on PC is far lower than the ratio of good/bad on console. Quite simply, PC's have the best overall gaming experiences.
 
not that i'm aware of. now M$ released the SDK to anyone who wants it for X360. so one can create a game on PC using the 360 SDK, burn it, and run on x360... if they have the know how.

which, by the way, is groundbreaking. in my opinion, x360 is now the best console out there... better than PS3. microsoft is so damn smart. there are gonna be sooooo many free apps and games for x360. it's going to create a whole new level of gaming. eventually, the whole thing will probably be streamlined so that anyone can create their own simple FPS or whatever and play it on x360.

now that's cool.
