Another PC vs consoles thread. So original.

@topic well its not only that MS releases all exclsuives on PC but its also the fact that even the OS is Windows on Xbox now. For me the most important part for buying a consoles are exclusives and physical games. Although i feel more and more satisfied with the PS4 OS and how everything is easy and streamlined, for doing all these PC stuff like installing it was never as easy and fast to get into the game unlike on PC, so thats also more of a reason that grows on me.

I dont plan to buy either an Xbox One or getting a Windows 10 upgrade for my PC as MS lacks exclusives games which cader towards me. But i probably still would buy an Xbox One if i had to, especially used Xbox ones should be  very reliable and cheap  ounce the scorpio hits. I am really not fond of using Windows 10 and getting used to another new OS which is probably trash anyways. I want to stick to Win 7 forver or getting Linux at this point, the transition should be very easy as the PS4 covers my essential hobby

Every buys a separate laptop. How else do you get the portability requirement for a computer?

I meant for portability. A laptop is far more useful than a desktop.

There's a massive difference between a laptop and desktop. 

if you don't buy a laptop, how do you deal with portability for general use?

the usual superficial perspective. no consideration of the economic values for the market. not to speak the value of the exclusive games.

at least with sony and nintendo traditional gaming keeps on thriving on a little longer. i hope as long as possible. would hate to see mobile gaming standards on certain digital distribution plattforms. o wait...

Doesn't matter how you label it - doesn't change anything to the fact that they're different things.

MS tablet surfaces are terrible though.

By that logic, consoles are personal computers too.

Ever heard of Emulation? Guess not.

There *are* other resolutions besides 1080P and 4K.

Scorpio and Neo will rely on upscaling to achieve 4k output though, but right now, other than possibly the upcoming Vega... AMD does not really have any viable single cost-efficient 4k gaming capable chip... And let's face it, Vega will be to big, to expensive for a console anyway.

If you only looked on Steam. Then you are doing it wrong. On PC there is always a sale, somewhere.
Anyone who buys a game on PC that isn't discounted is... To be blunt. Silly.
And the PC has more stores that compete with each other.

And please, provide me links of the places you compared the prices with.

Uncharted 4 will come to PC, whether you like it or not, whether Naughty Dog likes it or not and whether Sony likes it or not. It will happen. It's not a matter of "if" it's a matter of "when". And it will look better than what the PS4 could achieve too.

Not really.. video game consoles are designed to play video games as their primary function. I'm not sure where you're coming from when it comes to this magic designation of what is and isn't a PC. A desktop computer is a personal computer just as much as a notebook computer or a tablet computer is a personal computer. Its a computer designed for personal use and all perform the same types of tasks and run the same kind of applications, there's not really any way to split them all up as something different just because of their form factor.

I accepted it when Nintendo dun goofed & SONY started charging for online services. New games released in beta mode became the norm. Bye Bye consoles.
