Zenfolder don't bother arguing with Vlad, I've been down this road before with him. Basically he sees his opinion as truth and everyone else as a juvenile minded infant that can't possibly see how complex his favorite games are. He will just laugh ignorantly if you give him a list of the greatest console exclusive games and tell you how he plays deus ex every day since release. He thinks that everyone else should, like him, enjoy playing a game over and over again based exclusively off sporadic mods from a gaming community that has no guarantee of consistent output.

Honestly at this point I feel sorry for him, I think it would be horrible if I was so self indulgent that I was unable to enjoy newly released games and had to resort to playing decade old releases. Just the fact that he refuses to admit that console games have ever innovated in any way whatsoever should show you how blindly he follows his prejudices.

I feel as though the more publishers move towards consoles and put PC releases on the back burner the more hostile the PC community gets as they see their favorite franchises moving to a new medium. They have the same mentality that Nintendo fans had of square-enix for a while when they betrayed Nintendo and went to Sony.

Here I will list the biggest console exclusive games of this generation and I guarantee you that Vlad says that every single one of them is crap. MGS4, Killzone 2, Uncharted, Uncharted 2, Halo 3, GoW2, Fable II, Super Mario Galaxy, LBP, SSBB, ToV, Demon Souls, Crackdown, Infamous, Twilight Princess, Ninja Gaiden 2, God of War 3, Forza 3, GT5, No More Heroes, FF13. I could keep going but that will do. The fact that a gamer can't find a single enjoyable game in that bunch is ridiculous.

edit: I edited out the last part cause I don't want to bring prior arguments into this.

I can't say anythign about Uncharted 2 yet, haven't had the chance of playing. Mario Galaxy, SSB, LBP, and to an extent Uncharted are platformers or fighting games and don't really have a better equivalent on the PC since they can't really be made well, though many have tried. The equivalent of FPSes and many WRPGs on the consoles is the equivalent of platformers and fighters (without a controller on the PC), just very mediocre (LBP is a pretty shitty platformer  and the uniqueness of it has been on the PC for decades). Also I'm pretty happy playing my old games, it's not my fault I couldn't finish games like Gears 1 (I have a saved game half way thorugh chapter 5 for the past 2 years) because they are boring, simple, dumbed down, and ultimately just not as fun as games that came out decades ago. I also don'd give a damn about graphics so I'm fine with playing those old games.
