This is nothing new though, since this pattern sort of repeats itself every generation. When I say "reclaim the throne", I mean in terms of Gfxs, overall quality of the big releases and the 'sheer awe' gamers experience when playing through all the Superb Quality PC Games. It happened during the second half of the PS1/N64 gen (5th gen), with Half-Life, CounterStrike etc.

As a hardcore PCgamer I'm looking forward to all the yet to be announced PC games. 'Core' companies like Valve will lead the way!

Cheers!

 


Normally this rule is very true, but we're already halfways into the generation and there is not a single PC game announced that looks to be graphically very superior to console versions, not one exclusive, not one multiplatform. Zero.

And it usually takes at least 1.5 years from announcement to release, especially for the graphically high tech games, and by that time this gen will be almost over. So basically this gen looks like it will be the same quality on consoles versus PC, and that is very unique. And fascinating, that consoles have become comparatively so strong.

Speaking of Bethesda. I love Bethesda, they make the best games. My bet is that the console version of TES5 will be the same as the PC version, just like Morrowind, Oblivion and Fallout 3 was (theyll probably use an updated Gamebryo engine again).
