Domicinator said: Actually, I doubt most multiplatform games are ported from Xbox 360 to PC, rather it's probably the other way around because it's easiest to develop a game on PC, then port to consoles. Capcom, for example, develop their multiplats on PC, then port to consoles. I thought Crysis was the best FPS in 2007. The gameplay is what I loved the most on the game. Now that's stupid. Sure, almost no PC developer focuses on graphics, but they concentrate on gameplay (which is by far the most important part of games). And you are spreading lies if you think PC has almost no exclusives. There are far more PC games being developed than all consoles games combined! With the rise of the indie scene, and less focus on graphics, PC Game Studios are now making better and more awesome PC games than ever. You only need to look at the amazing 2010 lineup of PC Gaming (best lineup ever!). There are no longer $2000 PCs, LOL. You are 10 years behind if you think otherwise. In fact, a built $400 PC can easily play Crysis on High Settings, far better than consoles ever could. Anyway, I started to realize that if I'm going to play all the same games, and they're not going to look any better on the PC, why not just get a console and play stuff on my couch? I already had an HDTV, so I didn't even need to consider that as an extra expense. I have paid less for my PS3 and 360 combined than I did for my last graphics card!!! (Yep, that was the price of the 8800GTS on launch day.) The only thing I felt was lacking on the consoles was playing shooters with a controller..........until I played Killzone 2, that is. The controls on that game felt like it belonged on consoles, and I finally realized that I can get pretty much whatever I need on consoles. I will never buy a gaming card for a PC again. How about getting a PC and play stuff on your couch?! You know you can play PC games with a gamepad or a lapboard, right?! |

There's very little multiplatform games that look significantly better on PC than on PS360, and I'm sorry but I've never seen a pc game (not called Crysis) that looked better than Killzone 2 or Uncharted 2. |
Then you haven't seen anything of PC gaming. Just look at Empire: Total War, Dawn of War 2, Crysis Warhead, Stalker, Stalker Clear Sky, etc...
Also, 99% of multiplats look better on PC, FACT. Hell, just look at Assassin's Creed and Mirror's Edge, which look WAY BETTER on PC than on consoles.

Reason for that is that PC versions are almost always ports from console versions so games are made with consoles limitations and then ported to PC. (saddest example is GTA IV) |
Dude, the console versions of GTA IV are around the LOW SETTINGS of the PC version. Even Rockstar themselves said it.
