But can it run Crysis?

No no wait: But can it run Minecraft.

So quick to attack without doing the research first, huh?

[citation][nom]jigawatt[/nom]There are a quite a few of sims that are better than Gran Turismo 5: rFactor, most of what Simbin releases, iRacing and so on. There are quite a few sims that are soon to come out that will soon join the party, in regards to games that are better than Gran Turismo 5 (see Assetto Corsa, Project CARS, GTR 3, RaceRoom Racing Experience) . GT5's lack of realistic damage, realistic clutch, and realistic sounds really kill the game. GT5 has even more set-backs: Lack of additional real tracks (besides what they've offered so far), online community, mostly standard cars, over 1000 cars and more than dozens of them are repeats or just a different year.PS3's limitations are also big cons: you cant use USB headsets as your audio and talk, triple screens (PS3 requires 3 consoles and 3 copies of the game to do so), and you can't use additional accessories that the pc world allows for. I'm a GT fan myself, but there are way better sims out there. Humor me and youtube this: iRacing.com 2.4 hours of Daytona 2012.[/citation]

Personally what I want auto racing game is real-world physics, just so it feels like it's real so every decision you make feels like it matters

I also want fantasy race tracks, thing they just don't exist or don't happen in real life. Now I'm not talking Mario kart here, but after a while of playing these racing games I get so sick of seeing the same scenery over and over again. I really wish the designers just made the crap ton of environments that are very that feel different instead of just having a track that turns a bit different have an environment that will feels different.


[citation][nom]seinfeld[/nom]you can tell this was designed 5 years ago! it should have 802.11 ac. bluetooth 3 or even 4 (better power saving, bandwith) the ddr5 is good. dunno about the apu tho[/citation]

To be completely honest 802.11 n is more than enough for the console, it provides more than enough bandwidth for online gaming, and for most homes at least in America it's enough to saturate a full networks bandwidth

Currently 802.11 AC is just a draft it's not a final version of it, including something that's just a draft right now in a finished product that's probably going to launch this year would be stupid. That said two years down the line when AC is finally of standard and they don't put it in there then you have the right to complain.

[citation][nom]universal remonster[/nom]Didn't take long for the nerds to chime in with something stupid. Diablo was on Playstation.. Warcraft 2 was on Playstation and Saturn.. Blizzard has tons on other games on multiple consoles. Now all of the sudden its an issue, just because nerds need new drama to exagerate and complain about on the internet. I'm all for PC 100%, but games like Torchlight and some of the older Balur's Gate/Champions of Norrath games have shown that Diablo style RPG's can play very well with controllers on consoles and sometimes even better than their PC counterparts.[/citation]


[citation][nom]bllue[/nom]I hope D3 for console doesn't sell, seriously. If it sells incredibly well that's going to be the new trend[/citation]

And what would that be, that people like playing video games and systems made to play video games, or that the point-and-click action RPG sucks on the computer?

I played a great deal of action RPG's on the console, Diablo like, and I far more enjoy using the controller to move my carrot around than pointing and clicking in the general direction I want them to be. I hate using a mouse and keyboard for this style of video games. Like I said before the only part of the game that might be better with a mouse and keyboard only would be the magic user that has to precisely pinpoint where they want to lay spells down.

And like I said before Diablo on the console didn't play well because it was probably made in the time before we start using analog sticks on the PlayStation one. I do remember that game getting hand because of crappy controls. But so many other games came out sense than that of proof that you can use a controller for this style.

The PS4 actually looks cool. I am a PC gamer, but if it less than $400 I might get it anyway. I wonder what the Xbox 720 will have. With the PS3/Xbox 360 the only major differences are blu-ray and having to pay for online services, but it's looking like the PS4 and 720 will be quite different.
