The consoles don't seem to be able to run titles like Uncharted 4, Destiny 2, or Gears of War 4 at 1080p60.
What hope do they have at running a game where a spaceship can land right in front of you, dynamically.
People don't expect the next gen consoles before 2019, and that is probably a fair assumption.
It'd be impossible for anything in the console space to even come close to Star Citizen for half a year, one year, or even two years plus.
Unless we are getting the next-gen consoles 2018-2019, with a massive game at, or around launch.

Hopefully it can live up to the hype as a game.
On the tech side, they probably have a year or two, before they need to start worrying.

Mod for Skyrim fixes 'thousands' of item placement issues and other errors
https://www.pcgamer.com/mod-for-skyrim-fixes-thousands-of-item-placement-issues-and-other-errors/
Spend some time in Skyrim and you'll probably come across something that doesn't look quite right. Maybe it's an object that is supposed to be sitting on the ground but is instead hovering a bit above it. Maybe it's a small gap in the terrain that lets you peer through the world, or two bits of architecture that don't quite meet properly at the seams. Modder brytag certainly noticed, and has spent years creating fixes for these little imperfections, thousands of them. The resulting mod is called the Skyrim Supplemental Patch.

Free-to-play shooter Loadout will shut its servers later this month

Released in 2014, Loadout is a free-to-play competitive shooter with a focus on ridiculous weaponry. Our reviewer loved it upon release, writing that its "gun customization and well executed twists on shooter staples make it a free-to-play game that doesn't feel like a compromise".
But it won't be around much longer. A spokesperson for studio Edge of Reality announced today that Loadout will go permanently offline on May 24. The reason? New European Union privacy regulations set to become enforceable on May 25 would require a fair bit of work done on the game in order to be compliant. The studio can't afford it.

Steam study finds users leave negative reviews more quickly than positive ones
https://www.pcgamer.com/steam-study-finds-users-leave-negative-reviews-more-quickly-than-positive-ones/
Queen's University analysts Dayi Lin, Cor-Paul Bezemer, Ying Zou and Ahmed Hassan recently published an empirical study of Steam reviews. The study focuses on how user reviews of games on Steam compare to reviews of mobile apps and games, but its findings say plenty about Steam itself and are pretty darn interesting.
The numbers say the average Steam review is about 30 words long and sits at an eighth grade reading level (that is, according to the Coleman-Liau readability index used by the US Office of Education). The study found that reviews for Early Access games were slightly longer, and that free-to-play games received shorter reviews than paid games.

"The PC Gaming Show is coming to E3 2018"
"Two thoughts: 1) Yay, it's back! 2) Four f*cking hours?! Isn't that a bit too much?"

Well three hours are going to be dedicated to Half-Life 3, so no.
(no official confirmation, just wild speculation)

Well, I'm more affraid of it being 3 hours of constant talk and only 1 of games.

I liked when they brought back Sean, but 4 fucking hours of nothing but talk is just going to chalk yet another PCG e3 to being mediocre once again.

PCG website seems to think that all PC gamers love devs constantly talking about the same kind of stuff they've already talked about during e3, minus actual gameplay. That website is so out of touch with what PC gamers actually want to see.

I don't disagree with you. But maybe we should wait until we know more about the show before we start criticizing it.

Who knows, they may even get it right!
