I spent more money because I also needed something to do word processing on that ideally wouldn't die in 18 months aka most laptops, plus can also play games. 

The advantage is that I get to play games which are cheaper, don't look like shit and run a lot faster & access to a whole world of mods. What I don't get are  a bunch of reworked exclusives that are identical to their predecessors and laughably priced, or watered down versions of games e.g. Battlefield 3. 

I never boasted about upgrading my PC.....Someones clearly jelly xD
Also you clearly don't know the price of RAM as a decent set is about the same as a wireless pad....

Either way if the next consoles focus on being small and efficient over being power hungry beasts, gaming will be far superior on the PC then on the consoles. Just take a look at BF3, PS2, or even just DX11. 


Yeam im jelly cause youre here boasting about PC superiority. Good luck finding cheaper PC games. Only way you get those games cheaper cause they are old outdated games that are not selling on steam so they put them on special discounts. Good luck paying $2.99 for the original Xbox version of Slpinter Cell. How does that work on Ultra settings? You think you got back your money worth yet? Ohh wait youre going to have to upgrade to a better card and CPU next year if youre going to want to visit more forums to boast and stay relavent. Battlefied is a boring and poor attempt to steal the COD audiance so....... yeah.....

You need to relax buddy.  While I don't agree with how he went about things you clearly don't have a clue what you are talking about so please stop with your comments.


Making a statement without explaining what youre talking about makes no sense. Kindly explain what i dont have a clue about? I have just as much right to post comments here just like everyone else so its pointless telling me to stop with my comments without giving me a logical reason why.


Well first off you keep talking about PC as if  they are thousands of dollars and you have to upgrade them and that is simply not true.   Second off Steam sells games at a discount even if it is insanely popular.  Assassin's creed Revelations, dishonored, and Black Ops II alone has went on sell multiple times since they have been out. PC also has tons of quality exclusives especially in the MMo and RTS categories.  Now if you don't like them that is fine, that is your opinion.  Steam also has I think 8m concurrent users online.  What that means is it competes head to head with PSN and XBL.  Battlefield and CoD are way different and are for different crowds so it's not some copy cat game.  And btw look how long Battlefield has been around before saying it is trying to steal CoD's audience.  Battlefield has had it's own audience for a long time.

Conclusion:  Games are cheaper on PC.  Look at Far Cry 3 for example.  50 not 60.  Steam also offers discounts on a regular basis.  I bought L.A. Noire for $5 and Fable II for $10.  Both were 75% off.  I'd hardly call those games old or say that they don't sell well.  And lastly you don't hacve to upgrade your hardware every year.


1.) I know PC does not have to cost thousands of dollars but if youre boasting like he did then you might as well spend for the best. If he is not spending for the best whats his purpose boasting on forums about having the best and superior experience?

2.) I have a gaming PC and i enjoy games of all genres providing its presented to my specific taste properly. It may not be up to date but its better than last get consoles at least (PS3, Xbox360 and probably Wii U) and you dont see me boasting to have a superior experience.

3.) Battlefield was an attempt to steal COD fans, did you suddenly forget their whole marketing campaign always trying to compare the two? Whether its better than COD or not is up for debate but the COD fans like the arcade shooter experience they are already getting on COD which is why i made the point its a boring and poor attempt to copy COD. They probably never intended to copy COD but they sure as hell tried to compare and sell it to COD fans.

4.) I admit i was wrong about steam games but you have to admit there are a lot of old last gen games there that they try to sell in discount bundles.


1.)  I don't agree with him and have already talked to him about it.  

2.) He was wrong about boasting but if you are going to argue with him make sure to use facts.

3.)  Yes I remember that and yes they are trying to get call of duty customers but they are two very different games.  Medal of Honor is more along the lines of Call of Duty where as EA basically was just stating that Battlefield is better than call of duty.  They were not trying to make the game identical though. Personally I don't like Battlefield but a lot of people do.

4.) Yes it has a lot of games including old games.  Yes they do sale bundles often too so yes you are correct about those things :)  That is all I'm asking.  If you two are going to argue both of you all need to present your guys information or opinion better.

He was trying to troll so i countered with some trolling myself. I was not in the mood to type wall of text to explain to him.

Not boasting but telling you that if the hardware isn't good, a cheap PC will be more powerful then the next-gen of consoles....
Batman: Arkham City £5....
Borderlands 2 £13....
Dark Souls £10...

One is from steam, the other are from legit retailers in the UK (Zavvi & amazon). 

Keep on writing your asinine rant as much as it doesn't resemble reality in the slightest... 

You're just jelly. Bro. 


No one cared if you have a PC with superior specs. You came here and boasted about something that no one cared about. Attempting to troll me with the same slogan over and over wont work as you have already proven youre pretending to be a lot dumber than you probably already are. If you dont like console games stick to your PC and miss out. You will forever be on forums listing your superior specs with less games.

Since when was that the point? My point has been that if the specs for the next box are lame, then a cheap PC will kick it's ass...
I was making a technical point, not boasting. That's just you being completely paranoid...

Clearly you've had a terrible christmas and are just trying to take it out on strangers on the internet. Go talk to a counsellor or something instead; it's not anti-social.

Who cares if the specs are not up to your standard or a few other mothbreathers. I guarantee its going to play most of the games you will be getting on PC and more.

At twice the price with considerably worse graphics on a console thats only a few bucks cheaper then a PC.....See the issue if the next box has a 1.6ghz cpu? Or has your boxing day been that bad you're just looking for a fight rather then come to any reasonable conclusion?

I get to play more games. You get to brag on the internet about higher numbers.



wow this thread turned into a PC battle lol.

The only thing I don't agree with Mazty is that a laptop will die after 18 months if his primary function is for word processing lol.

I have a laptop that has been on 24/7 for the last 7 years (only time I reboot is when it crashes) and still going strong.

Then again I guess they don't build them like they use to.

your argument would be true if PCs didn't have more games :P I'm all about the JRPGs on consoles, sadly they keep getting shittier these days and it's even sadder that the best one I've played in the 7th gen is on the fucking Wii lol.



Welp, another hijacked thread. I'm surprised it's not locked yet.

Anyway, the rumors sound interesting, but I think we should wait until E3.
