usrevenge on 02 April 2012

crysis 2 would have been awesome on console if they had the old multiplayer.. but they decided to be another cod clone.

either way, what ever crytek PC gaming died years ago. good luck very few PC games are decent anymore

i would say it has. sure every 18 month or so we get new gpu's but the next big graphical jump on  pc will come with the next consoles. most differences between pc and console games are higher res, better lightning and so on but the levels itself look the same (same amount of interior in a buidling for example)

when the next gen console games come out, we will see much bigger jump for pc games as well because battlefield 4 on console will be a big jump to 3, it will be a big jump on pc as well which wouldn't be the case without new consoles^^

As I said...graphics cards.

then you didn't read what i wrote. i said "new console means huge jump for pc as well" and not only because of the gpu...

pc games will profit from the whole new console power not onyl the gpu in the new console.

and talking about equipment, some work for pc as well like the new controller (at least  the 360 controller) which i even use when playing battlefield 3 on pc which is a disadvantage but i hate mosue/controller super fast unrealsitic movement and aiming in pc-egoshooters.

One thing: You're completely wrong

This, I have no idea how Crysis 2 is a COD clone, infact I like the multiplayer of it, because it didn't clone COD.

It's really much the same with consoles. New graphics cards, new cpus. What was so new about PS3 except the power?


Consoles are held back to nearly a decade and it is pushed to the limit with creativity. If we were to think of similar things I would put it up with a rich culture. PC can get multiplats, but who holds the flag for it? How many do for such generations? Consoles were inferior to arcades and people used to tall down to it, but no one will ever forget the genesis or the SNES. As limited as they are, they are the wealth. Generations are not to be represented by how powerful a console is, but rather by what you can do with the console and the variations in games. I'd take a decade of great games and amazing stories over yearly upgrades just so I can orgasm over how amazing the graphics are.

And all it took for them to wake up was to lose the majority of their fans due to the mediocrity of Crysis 2.

PC tech moves faster than consoles that is all. I am tired of pc guys saying pc is better (of course) If you want the latest tech go with PCs the problem is PCs aren't getting certain games. PCs used to have tons of exclusives but since xbox 360 things have changed. It will always be about the games and next-gen console games are going to be so pretty will it matter if PC is capable of more. The answer is NO.

You fail to realize PC has exclusives of its own, possibly more now than ever. The last line is what people said last generation too. Things will never be pretty enough. Don't forget that you can still play almost all of the old PC games, going decades back. Can't do that with consoles.

I'll tell you what I'm tired of though. That is people constantly saying PC gaming is dead and/or is not viable for devs. Guess what, you're wrong

I have seen PC exclusives and I am not interested, the biggest game to come out of PC recent months is Starwars MMO good game

maybe even great but not interested.

And I never said pc is dead pc is not dead.
