vlad321 said: Does Microsoft realize they desperately need gaming on the PC? Windows is tied to gaming, and it's a huge reason many people buy Windows instead of just putting Linux on their machine, and Open Office by default. The more Microsoft fucks PC gamers the more they are fucking their real revenue stream by a wide margin for one of their more worthless divisions. |
Do you honestly think that people will switch to Linux because of games when most people don't even know how to switch from Internet Explorer. Making people switch to consoles is beneficial to MS since they get royalties which they don't on the PC so in terms of business its a very smart decision.
|
Yes. Linux or Mac. Do you honestly think people who can get their gaming elsewhere will stick with something so bad as Windows? Also people don't even have to know about how to switch from IE, considering OEM companies are already selling machines with pre-installed Linux on them. Trust me, Microsoft is fucking their real revenue stream for nothing. On the upside, this makes shit a lot easier on google, so I guess there is a silver lining after all.
|
I think you know that Linux and Mac doesn't have support for every PC game. What's the point of comparing Linux, Mac and Windows if the best gaming experience is on the Windows/Windows live?
|
I also thought that you realized I wasn't talking about gaming at all on a Mac or Linux. I guess I was wrong.
|
Also, if Windows has the best gaming experience, easy and known interface that anyone will recognize, why would the majority of the people use linux or mac? You can buy a PC with pre-installed Linux and buy another OS later. It doesn't matter if the PCs are coming with pre-installed Linux, it won't change the fact that people can buy another OS, and the Windows 7 is actually selling pretty well, if I am not mistaken, Microsoft even said that Windows 7 is the best selling OS, how can you claim that someone is fucking their real revenue if the Windows 7 broke a record?
|
ANd your ignorance comes to a head. Windows 7 is the best selling OS they had SINCE Windows XP. So it sold better than Vista, what a surprise. I'll address your "ease of use" in the following post.

There is no ignorance here, please, keep your words as peaceful as possible.
And please, click on the link:

"the fastest-selling operating system of all time"
So, the Windows 7 broke a good record. Again, how can you say that someone is fucking their real revenue?
|
Yes, and how many PCs existed back in 2000 and how many in 2009? You probably also believe AVATAR made the most money for a movie too right?
|
I don't understand. Are you admiting that Windows 7 is the best selling OS because we have more PCs on the world now? If that's what you are trying to say, Microsoft is probably happy anyway, and the angry PC owners aren't fucking their revenue.
I agree that Microsoft should give more support to the PC but they need to improve the Windows live, create something more similar to steam, do something about the piracy (using their next OS) and then they can give more support (games) for PC owners.
A good anti-piracy + exclusive games for their next OS + constant support/updates for the anti-piracy+ better digital distribution = Win (in my opinion).
