| Captain_Yuri said: Here's a question since we are sorta on topic. How many people on vgc even have a gaming PC? Cause Forza horizon 3 isn't exactly gonna run on a toaster even on low settings... |
Basically any Core i5 ever made or better can run it.
8GB Ram.
Radeon 250X/Geforce 750Ti is the minimum for the GPU.
The Radeon 250X is basically the Radeon 7770. So a Radeon 5850 released 8 years ago or better is enough.
Basically you are looking at an Xbox One level performing PC. ...Might as well call it a toaster... :P
| Captain_Yuri said: Someone says PCs are a great place to play games... Response from people "PCs are way too expensive" Someone says the xbox one x is great... Response from people "Neh, I can just play xbox exclusives on my PC" It's like... You do realize games like Forza Horizon 3 and Gears of War 4 need decent/good PCs to even play them on low settings right? PCs are known to be very scalable yes but there is still a minimum... |
It's a toxic cycle.
As for minimum requirements on PC, there are those that exist who spend inordinate amounts of time reverse engineering shaders, making low-end texture packs, tweaking config files to play games on hardware that is lower than minimum... And more.
I mean, the games look like crap. But it is impressive in what they achieve.
| Ka-pi96 said: My main issue with Microsoft's exclusives is quality, not that they're also on PC. I'd have no problem with them also being on PC, I may even buy them on PC. There just isn't many that look good to me though. The MS Xbox/PC games I'd want.... there's maybe 3 at max? So yeah, them releasing them on PC too isn't really an issue for me. Them releasing so few games that I'd actually want to play is the issue! |
I concur. Other than Killer Instinct, I cannot think of a title on Xbox One that really "wows" me.
Sunset Overdrive is good, but it's not a genre that typically appeals to me.
On the Xbox 360... Everyone had to get that console when Halo 3 released, Nintendo had a repeat of that with Zelda: Breath of the wild... But such a thing hasn't happened for the Xbox One yet.
| CGI-Quality said: Although I'm getting a One X, this is very much my view as well. Without a clan of folks, I'd have no need for an Xbox this generation. I have a grand total of 3 physical games for the One I currently have and, as it stands, all future In-House Microsoft Studios titles are headed to PC. Criticism? Praise? I don't chase either term. I just know that I don't have many reasons left to own an Xbox. Whether that's good or bad remains to be seen. |
I own about 50~ Xbox One titles. I bought them not because they were exclusive. But because of convenience. It was great smashing out a game on PC, then wandering into the lounge room and playing that same game a little more casually.
I'll have the Xbox One X as well on release.
I really *do* wish that Microsoft had some real must-have exclusives though. I do play my PC more because. Well. It is superior in every way. That doesn't change with Scorpio either.
| Errorist76 said: Just confirming my stance that I had since 2 gens already, PC + PlayStation is the perfect combination. It's great for PC gamers all XBox titles are now on PC. Just don't pretend it does XBox any favours. Sadly the Windows Store exclusivity just hurts them as I mostly refuse to use this overpriced DRM shit. Just put it on Steam already. Switch is the perfect complement. |
I wouldn't say the Playstation+PC is the perfect combination...
The Playstation gets more exclusives than Xbox, sure. But there is a massive chunk of the Playstation 4's library that is on PC as well.
And this generation seems to be the worst for it... More games are simply coming to PC, even japanese games.
The Switch doesn't really have a games library at the moment. But if it is anything like Nintendo's past consoles, it's exclusive to multiplatform ratio's will be a little more favourable, mostly thanks to it's inferior hardware not being an attractive proposition for multiplats.
