Rogue System

[Prototype]

PC.... good, but nothing on the good old GBA

[CommanderKobialka]

Lets weigh them:

PC

Pros:
Can be upgraded
Versatile
Multipurpose
Portable (Laptops)
Open System
Better Quality
Unlimited amount of games available
Publishers have a harder time screwing you over

Cons:
Expensive
May be difficult to set up
Can be large


Consoles

Pros:
Easy to set up
One system multi-player
Compact
Cheap

Cons:
Closed system
Low quality
Limited amount of games
Less precision
'Dumbed down' games
Cannot be modified
Prone to breaking
Can be screwed over by publishers


It's really a back-forth battle, consoles for accessibility vs. PC's for versatility/power/quality.

PC is not dying, it's just that major publishers are putting out less games for it, or are pushing more for consoles. I enjoy both, but neither is going to die anytime soon.

Until Virtual Reality and Holographics kick in. No wait, just integration!

and PC's can be modded however you like. All you get for console games are DLCs released by the developer. :P

Yea. See the big publishers begin to screw it up. How much time have passed since BF3 ? A bit mroe than a year and they already plan to release a new game on a "new" engine. We both know that a game can't be released so fast. It is only because it will be identical in almost any way to BF3. CoD broke the record last year with 2 titles in the same year, again all the same. People are tired of the same all over again and of shameless money machines, so they go to new things. It doesn't even have to be indie titles , Dishonored got so popular exactly because of it. It's a new title that did everything right and brought something new to the table.

EA could have made sooo much more money by reselling the original fifa/any other sports game and then charging 60 bucks for new skins and 50 bucks for new rosters. All of the EA sports games sell extremely well by using the same assets for about 10 years.

Yea I heard about that and actually brought it up here at one point ...

CoD broke the record last year with 2 titles in the same year

Halo Wars is the best RTS on xbox.
