Meh....PC is so last year.

Meh....PC is so last year.

Nah. PC not dead. Give me one of these babies!

And this year and next year

Only for a short while.

You may move of into the distance a year or so later but i know where all the developers choice to make games and it isn't PC my friend.

Sticking with a PC in this day and age and wanting to play some real great games then you have to invest in a console simplessssssssss......

10 years ago it was the complete opposite.......But not anymore as there are very high development costs and the money is in consoles and not PC like it was a decade ago.

Touch�!

That is mental. At the risk of sounding repetitive......Holodeck!

But if I am to successfully recreate a scuffle on the Cambodian border, rescue Elias and push Barnes from the chopper (all from my living room), they're going to have to do some serious work on the size of that thing.

Try trying a letter on a console...

Or a decent FPS...

Controls are where its at with FPS and Mouse and Keyboard and i can not argue with that,but having played consoles for many years you quickly get used to the change and i don't have any issues playing FPS on consoles and in fact its my favourite type of game.

Im just stating the obvious backed up by many developers that have eloped from PC gaming knowing exactly where the money is in recent years.

I have had this conversation on these forums on many occasions with Spookish who is a die hard PC fanatic and i think even he will admit some of the points i have raised regarding game development and the amount of games not available on a PC has some clout.

Will you ever see Infamous Second Son on a PC.

You wont see Killzone Shadow
Fall

And you wont see games like

The Last Of Us

The list is endless and personally if you are a Gamer and love games then i don't see any choice but to invest in a Gaming platform that have developers flocking in there droves to develop for.......And that is Consoles and next generation consoles will certainly close the gap on the graphical flair that is on a high end PC.

They may stabilise and PC gaming will move on once again when you constantly upgrade but we have some great games now on hardware that is 6 years old so imagine what we are going to see when we get hold of the new Playstation 4 and 8gig of DDR5 Ram.

At present we have 512mb of ram which quite frankly is ridiculous,but some top developers have bought us some fantastic looking games that more than live up to my high expectations.

Far Cry 3 was one of my games of last year and the mind boggles what Far Cry 4 will look like on next generation consoles,because we both know that on consoles this game and many others will never compete with a nice PC in terms of looks and performance.

What i do like about you MR Toad is the amounts of replies and posts you are now contributing in the Gaming forums which is well needed .

I like reading your views and comments so keep it coming

I decided that when summers over and gaming season starts again that I'm buying a new gaming PC instead of the PS4
