I have no interest in what any of that offers me. 

PC gaming doesnt offer me the most important aspect to me. Ease of use and jump in and play. And as long as Halo is not on PC at launch then I'll never consider it. 

I'm glad you like PC gaming. I dont.


i agree whole heartedly with this.  i enjoyed PC gaming when it worked but PCs are just a hassel to keep up and running.  viruses, drivers, all sorts of other crap.  i swear back when i played WoW i spent as much time fixing my computer as I did actually playing games.

gratz to all those willing to put in the work but i just want to play games and my consoles do just that with ease.

you should probably stay away from emails that say "FREE SEX XXX CLICK GIRLS GIRLS!!!" i dont know what the hell people are doing with their PCs but i havent had a virus in years. and i dont even use a Antivirus program.

I haven't had a vrius since exactly 2004. That wasn't even a virus but some spyware thing that would cause constant popups. It also wasn't even on my PC but the working PC.

Viruses aren't a PC problem, they are an idiot user problem.


That you know of.

It doesn't matter! You don't get viruses from PC Gaming.

Those people who get viruses, they get it from downloading from torrents/rapidshare, visiting malicious websites, etc... NOT FROM GAMES!

Ask yourself this: "If I'm so afraid of getting viruses, then why am I visiting VGChartz?"

You and Kitler53 are using a PC to visit Vgchartz (I assume), yet your so called fear of viruses isn't stopping you from coming here, even though you're more likely to get a infection from here than in all PC games combined.

Trust me, if I had a virus I would have known about it.

I sincerely doubt that you reverse-engineer every process your computer is running. But if you do, I believe you. Heck, I admire you for your effort.

I'm sorry, but why is this post directed to me? I just said that it is most likely that he does not know if he has had a virus. I don't give a crap about your rants so don't bother.

Process Explorer buddy, and considering I don't have more than 45 Processes running when I am doing really heavy work it is really no problem whatsoever and takes no more than 5 minutes to see what every process is. If you know how to work PCs you wouldn't have problems. You make it sound like it's rocket science, when it really really isn't. Just because you don't know anything, it doesn't mean that there isn't a quick and easy way.

Uhh, as I thought.

I believe that you haven't seen "VIRUS.EXE" running on your system. It takes a "bit" more than 5 minutes to actually check what the binaries that run on your system are actually doing.

 

edit:

Noticed that you edited your post and all I have to say is "Haha". You sure can make a fool out of yourself.

How about a small test? I write a small executable which only prompts you with text "Hello!" and you tell me what that program actually does?

Don't run it however, heuristic detection won't catch on that.

Actually, why bother with that. Paste here some lines of code from your notepad.exe (windowssystem32 folder) and I believe you. I am willing to assume that you are a programming wiz and you see in "5 minutes" what the code actually does.

Even better, I've actually had to write a virus program for a class a few semesters back, if I find it on the server I could just send it to you if you want. Obviously you shouldn't run it.

No, that is not better. Anyone can compile a program (or send a random executable) but I would like to see you reverse-engineer  a binary and analyze it in "5 minutes".
