Draconian Guppy Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Well I have to say PC, but some recent comments around neowin have made me consider :wacko: why spend $1500+ on a top of the line pc when $500 for a new console $500 for the newest titles $500 for a good tv ... :s But still I guess I'll always be a PC gamer :p You can't find AOE or Worms on consoles :p ( can you :s ? ) plus strategy games are ugly to play with a controller...

SHADOW-XIII Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I would like to say a word about consoles future current consoles are going to be desktop computers in the future ... apart what you see, they are gretting mouse, keyboard and hdd, sooner or later you will be able to open it and replace some parts not mentioning that there will be console that will allow to run other consoles games ... it will become PC it's simple, PC is the best, it allows much more than normal console can give you I once said I will stick with PC, but lately I found that I could buy a console for 1 game, FF VII remake :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scudworth Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 voted 'both', but mostly PC since I dont own a console, just play when other people want to play one theirs; I prefer certain games on console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiGGA Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Having a PC makes me a PC Gamer. When I didn't have the PC I was very much into Consoles. I am much more into PC Gaming as you can get games with alot more depth, and aslong as you have a modem the game is playable Online (It's less hassle). So therefore I will stick to PC Gaming. I haven't touched a console in about 6 months. I think the new consoles will be excellent but I won't be buying one in a hurry, I'd rather spend the money on upgrading my PC.

Porsche Design Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 it's fun to play on other people's consoles. but owning one is too useless for me, unless it also has media center functions like the xbox 360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaMeDtX Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 I play both, love my xbox, and still play stuff on pc. I'm saving up for a 360... and also saving up to build a new pc... so yes, me... both sides.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaLooNz Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 PC for RTS (WC3 / RoN) / FPS (BF series / Halflife series) / MMORPG (EVE online / GW) / Online multiplayer (Gunbound / Darkspace). You can't play these without a mouse and keyboard. Console for RPGs / Racing. Nothing matches the sheer variety of FF / Suikoden games out there.

PixilEyes Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 You also got to add in the cost Ratio. 400 bucks for an xbox 360 compared to 1000 for a new system every 2 years. This has been something I've been pondering for the last few months heavly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephen_0002 Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Ya know.... i feel the whole console/PC tghing is well over rated .. In this day in age.. most gamers who own a pc... own a console as well .. .. each system has there own strength and weaknesses .. each one has games that are better on on then another. . I just like to appriciate pc's and consoles both @ the same time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mocib Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 100% PC. Never owned a console or a handheld. I've played games since 1979. My first PC was Commodore VIC-20 (1982) then it was Commodore C-64 and finally in 1992 I became a "modern PC" owner when I got myself a Intel 486DX 50MHz setup. Before buying my own PC I had played with all kinds of PCs starting from Intel's 186. Oh... the old times :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukemc86 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Until pretty recently I played everything on my pc because console-wise all I had was a playstation and a sega genesis. A week or so ago a friend was selling an xbox with a bunch of games and I bought it. Now that I have the xbox that is where I do all my gaming (unless some friends come over with their computers). In fact, I don't have any computer games installed right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-Flex Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I simply prefer computer games and the controls. It seems to have so much more depth, etc. As for the cost of the PC, don't forget that even cheap PCs can be used to play games. You don't neccessarily need to play all the biggest and latest ones. But then again, a PC can offer so much more than games, such as word processing, Internet, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaMMa Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I used to be a PC gamer, and upgraded my system every 1.5 years and bought a new video card a minimum of 8 months (4 cards total). Things got too costly for me, so I decided to make the switch to console gaming. I like a console because you don't have to worry about a framerate drop, or your hardware being too outdated to play a game on. I was very satisfied with the Dreamcast and Xbox in terms of graphics compared to PC gaming at that time. I bought a Xbox 360, and that'll hold me over for a while. The way I see it, spend 400 on a console that has split screen multiplayer, surround sound, and the "comfort factor" (being able to sit on a couch and play) every 4 years compared to before where I spent 100-300 on cards every 8 months, plus system upgrades. It's cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DELTETHISACCOUNT Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Through my childhood and early teenage years, I was all console, never owned a computer. I switched to PC last year though. I got it built summer 2004 and for a while I felt like I was dominant over the consoles. But with the 360 out, I don't feel so dominant anymore. I'll be rebuilding next year though.
