many developers have but not all developers. There remains core games that stay in the pc market as they not suited to consoles, mainly blizzard games, rts, most mmo's and some other games. Also the pc is the biggest indie market. There is 1000s of games on steam, its far from dead like you seem to think.

90% of games that are on consoles and pc are better on the pc as well.

actually I do without the back ache.

I think its a far superior experience been close to a 22inch screen than far away from a 40" screen.

Also I prefer sitting upright in a office chair than lying down on a sofa.

Dispite what you thnik there is still a large pc gaming community who frequently play in the way you described.

How many do you see on twitch playing on sofas?

The one big win for PC gaming is control, as good as consoles are their joypads are rubbish compared to the good old keyboard and mouse

Yeah, that's the primary concern of mine when it comes to getting a PS4, the controller. It's been ages since I've used a controller to play FPS, that was Quake II on the PS One and it took me a long while to get used to it.

But I guess everybody's in the same boat when you get used to a controller? Or, can you get a leg up if you can use keyboard/mouse on the PS4?


Just read this story:

Valve Steam Machines to be tested with the public

Some food for thought maybe?

I had no problems at all adjusting to a Joypad from Keyboard and Mouse,its like learning to ride a bike,once the stabilisers are removed its as easy as one.two three......And i know i had my stabilisers of last week tongue

Another thing that would not work is the console gamers that want keyboard/mouse control....You need a nice pretty large flat surface for that to work and im not about to lie down on the carpet with some chopping board.
