So a game can freeze, be filled with tons of bugs, glitches and problems but as long as you can run it in 1080p, its awwright?

This is exactly what I don't get about (some) PC gamers.

I mean, I'll admit, I spend a LOT of money on my PC, and I've even overclocked my CPU and GPU to get the best possible performance so I can run games in 1080p, but there are games I wouldn't touch such as Skyrim because of the HORRIBLE issues it had... and another example, Battlefield 3, I bought it on PS3 and PC day one, PS3 to play with my friends, PC to play with high graphics and my brother. I tried the PC version, and for a month after release, it had so many issues for me, and I was one of those people that suffered from random crashes and the game closing itself off, and DICE were working to fix it... but on the PS3 version, the graphics weren't as nice, the framerate was lower, less people in a map, but it ran PERFECTLY for me... I didn't care about graphics.

What I'm trying to say, but not exactly conveying very well, is that PC gamers are being given an AMAZING game, which yeah, has some technical problems, and they're whining about it, they even get it cheaper than us console players had to pay! Personally I'd be over the moon because the performance isn't even that bad on the PS3 version (Which is what I play), I mean sure some areas can dip low, but it's not enough to put me off at all, and the PC version is apparently slightly better in that regards. As for not being able to play in 1080p... I play a lot of games in windowed mode anyway, lol.

And people are saying things like "Oh, well From won't fix the game after release, they rely on modders"... Yeah, they've said that, however, if you ask me, modders have done a fuck ton more for Skyrim than Bethesda have, and people STILL praise that game as being the spawn of god or something daft like that, lol.

i played battlefield 3 some hundred hours and i did never have problems with it. i played with controller and super bad ping against keyboard players that's why my stats suck but that's all^^ and i also never had problems with skyrim nor oblivion. so yeah, why should i complain (and even if, i just understand that it's almost not possible to make a game like skyrim without having some problems for some players)

and my problem with such a version for pc like we get with dark souls is that i think every pc game should have 1080p or slightly less nowadays. it's like i would get a 320p retail game for ps3, it could be very good, i still wouldn't accept that just because the developer would say that he has no clue how to make games for that console.
