Forums - Gaming - PC gaming "in disarray", says Cliffy B

People have gotten around steam though. Well, you can pirate the single player not multiplayer part of the game but if it's a game worth its salt on the PC then the SP should be phenomenal.

And as a PC fan I have not been WOWed by any consoles games with the exception of:
-The Wii games with motion controls
-JRPGs
-Fighting games

2 of those 3 cannot be done on the computer and the other one just never ever had a good come out on the PC in that genre. I remember when Blizzard ported Starcraft to the PS2. I don't know if it was them that did the actual porting or some other company(Doubt it) but as far as I hear it just plain sucked on a console. The biggest insult for a game on the PC is that it has been tainted by the smell of consoles. Unreal Tournament 3 was exactly that. The moment the more experienced players picked it up they realized that the game had been made primarily for the PS3 and not the PC.

veiam : No , PC gamers just like precission controls for FPS and RTS games . Every time I bring one of my PC-only playing friends home , they are wowed even by my PS2/P games ... I presonally hate the fact that thee are no 3D platformers for the PC , or no real TPSs ... so its all about taste , not peoples ignorance ... And the majority says : CONSOLES !

 there are several platformers, and a few of them are 3D. As for TPS, there are buttloads of them on PC. And the majority saysÇ: PC (atleast in europe and asia)

Login solution would be useful which is why mmo's are not hurt by piracy as much if at all. Currently I pay for city of heroes every month yet all the latest PC games I just bootleg though recently games like crysis and unreal 3 just do not run well on my current PC so screw them.  Plus all my friends have consoles and for those that have PC's they use them for the internet or school work etc and rather spend money on games then a 6-12 month video card of $200+.  I am baised since I just think is so retarted that games are made to run with the latest cards without giving an option to play with older cards which kicked ass not so long ago.  Is not like asking to run at insane resolutions with 60 fps etc.  Just allow me to enjoy the game at a decent resolution and locked in 30 fps. I mean you look at Half Life 2 which my system runs wonderfully and why can't crysis have an option to just look like that.  Again PC's are a pain in the ass for gaming for the most part so I am glad consoles are the focus as I want all the PC games to be available on consoles so I may play them with my friends who also don't feel like spending money on new PC's etc.



Maybe he's upset that most people would rather play TF2 or CoD4 rather than UT3 on the PC.
I don't need games like Gears of War on the PC, so he can just keep on saying that PC gaming is in disarray.
