Yeah for some I can always imagine that being the case but I meant it in a way of a lot of gamers (like 80% as a rough example) not seeing PC as viable.

I too wasted money back in 2012 when an ex room mate of mine swindled me out of a good build and switched specs we both worked on so he ended up with a better build, now It's 2015 and I get the build I was roughly after (though at the cost of a once good friend).

Yeah this thread basically went all Ozzy Osborne lol.

Total biscuit is well out of order with this.

Like is he seriously having a go at consoles getting exclusives and timed exclusives over pc?

I presume he's apologised on behalf of all the games they get that consoles dont. Fair is only fair total biscuit.

Is there any point to keeping such a thread open since the thread has served it's purpose and it's now been 2 days along with TB not even going on about it since those 2 days ago.

Well... not all threads are locked after a few days of their event having happened, would be a lot of extra work to do it, unless a thread is left alone for 30 days I think and someone necro's it, then it gets locked unless there was a good reason to necro it.

I just feel it's been done and dusted as an overall topic, TB stopped going on about the deal 2 days ago and the only ones talking about it are those with personal beef against him and the other platform, I mean if we're still going to laugh or poke at words of the apst then we should at least make a Hitler or Stalin thread nad point at thise trainwrecks =P.

deary me, such a massive leap.

No link? *Edit - nevermind. Finally saw those tweets. He should quit his bitching because PC gets plenty of games/exclusives that consoles don't.  It's just part of gaming. 

I really don't understand some of the reactions here. It's not like terminal cancer magically turns unfunny pseudo-experts into infallible gods.

Sucks, but he's still the same prick he was before. And this analogy is exactly the same nonsense he usually whines about. His popularity will always be a mystery to me.

Here here.  He could have made a valid point if he included another major culprit pc but instead his through colors have shone through.  It's just a biased rant for his platform of choice.  

Not sure why, steam prices in Aus are the same as the US, they are even listed in USD. With the AUD buying 0.72USD at the moment, a $US59 game becomes $82. For some reason, in Aus retail most new games come out in the $AU69-79 range, really large releases can be found for as low as $64AUD (Battlefront, Fallout 4, those type of large releases). After the initial release they usually go up to $89 for a while, before dropping down to $49 when they get their first big price cut. Once the successor is announced, they usually drop to around $39. Factor in data caps in Aus and our slower internet speeds, and steam is almost never cheaper than console pricing on game release.

Steam is cheaper once the game reaches a steam sale, but its not like PSN or XB Live don't have sales, so the price parity remains the same.
