I think the world would be a boring place if we all cuddled and sipped tea over a biscuit by the fire.

Some people can't handle confrontation. Personally I'm more of a lover than a fighter but every now and then I love seeing a good first fight down the pub. We're humans at the end of the day, not robots programmed to spread love and peace.

If people arguing over gaming machines upsets you. You probably shouldn't read gaming forums (especially if they are sales focused sites).

 

If I grabbed your boob, would that spice things up a bit? Not that I want to. It's just the fire and biscuits talking...

I think the AAA 3rd party games might be poisoning them ...

And who owns a PC in this day and age instead of a laptop or tablet?

So what is your estimate? How much people worldwide still game on desktop PCs?

No idea but it makes no sense to have one.

You do realize a laptop is a PC (a.k.a. Personal Computer) right.....probably dont oh well.

 

Anyways best gaming combo imo is PS4+WiiU+3DS+PC :p

 

Edit: tl;dr @ OT!

Yeps but how many people game on laptops? Looking at the best gaming laptops on cnet/au shows that they'd be priced at around $3000.

Well if the consoles would kindly die already we wouldn't have any debates. We wouldn't have silly exclusives and powerpoint slideshows sold as "games".                                     

yeah so we can argue about which graphicscard manufacture is better, so much more exciting than consoles? I defeniatley take the Consoles exclusives over anything else exclusivley on PC these days.

Well first of all, we already do that and second of all, the majority already agrees that AMD is crap.

And exclusives are bad no matter on which platform they are. Though they're worse on consoles because there they are forced to perform below their potential, which is just cruel.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

As expected, you don't have the slightest clue, how many PC gamers still game on desktops. Just have a look in the Steam Hardware Survey, where all the used GPUs of the 125 - 200 million accounts get tracked: http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/directx/?sort=name

If we kick all the mobile GPUs/APUs out of that list ("AMD/Ati Mobility Series", "Nvidia M-Series", other GPUs with a letter like "M","B", "D", "G" before or after the number) and all the Intel chips, that still leaves 60 - 70% with dedicated graphic cards (usually found in desktop PCs).

So at least 70 million Steam users still game on desktop PCs.
