Loll Timmy's gonna Tim.

Consoles do have their benefits to PC in certain ways for sure but what people shouldn't forget is PC hardware pushes itself without help from consoles all the time. If it didn't, why does Nvme SSDs exist? Shouldn't we have stayed with SATA until console overlords gave us Nvme? Why does ray tracing exist with the 2000 series? Why did we have 8 core cpus for how many years now? Those existed even before Ryzen made them affordable... And the list goes on...

The biggest kicker this gen is that unlike last gen where you had Nvidia being in the middle of transition with the infamous 700 series, where you had AMD out of the picture thanks to their FX line of cpus and etc. With this gen, Nvidia, AMD, Intel and Samung/SSD manufactures are all gonna be launching their next generation products probably before the consoles come out. And if the rumours are true... Reality will strike hard!

Exactly. PC is always pushing itself, which is why I laughed at Timmy's words, because it reminds me of his old ways of talking, back when he was running Gears, and when he was with the console sector. I Mean, when you really look at his games roster, all he's doing so far is buying or making multiplat games, putting focus on porting an already existing game to next gen, while UT is still left unfinished and with no such game putting focus on the platform he started out on. Meanwhile, CDPR is making a game that's likely to melt some PC's, while Steam has a good number of games with a PC focus and support, so I can see why Timmy boy's aligning himself with Sony, much like how MS has chosen to align itself with Valve. 

I do hope it doesn't mean future PS games going exclusively to EGS, because that's one way to not earn my money and just earn ire instead, but then again, all of the big 3 manage to earn that from me over time (Trying to cancel fan games on PC, charging stupidly high rices for their games, their recent remasters, inventing DRM, looking at you Sony, as well as forgetting us for years and mucking up with a store, looking at you MS).

I am interested in seeing what Samsung is going to pull. I'm not entirely sure about Intel's discreet GPU's, since they are mucking things up on their CPU side, it really makes it hard for me to put any faith in them atm.
