| mai said: I remember when Doom was new and hot, and how people most of the time used to play it on 386 in a small windows to get acceptable framerates. And some time after I saw Doom on SNES on 14" screen at display at mall... it was comparable to they the least. Though given how cheap PC hardware nowadays, it might not be an issue today. |
Except... Today, you can get a copy of Doom, Apply some OpenGL patches and play it without all that pixelated mess at insane resolutions, but only on the PC.
The PC has a far larger games library than the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Wii, Nintendo 3DS, Vita, iPad/iPhone/iWhatever/Android combined thanks to the last several decades of games being released on the platform, some of the best games of all time are PC exclusive.
You want to play games on your couch with a controller hooked up to a 60" Plasma? No problem, you can do that on the PC too.
Or... Do you want to play on 3x 24-27" LCD monitors in eyefinity and enjoy a super wide aspect ratio which *really* draws you into a game that a console could never do? Yep. Only on the PC.
The only real excuses for not being a PC gamer these days is laziness/lack of time or not having the capability to google/watch youtube videos on how to build a PC and/or troubleshoot it...
Because lets face it, the processor alone in my PC is worth more than a Playstation 3 and several games, however not all "Gaming" PC's need to be that expensive, you can build a PC easily for a couple hundred bucks which will handle most games fine.
I'm just a gamer who won't settle for anything less than the best...
