User blog comment:Airos/Rant: Why I dislike PC gaming/@comment-88.174.237.53-20110721155302

hum I see many wrongs in that complaint :/

right OS ? every game being compatible with windows, that question is only valid if you are a mac user (but seriously, gaming on a mac ?! oh well maybe, but bring it upon yourself ^^) or under 'nux. What about Video RAM? purely marketing, proved over a hundreds of time within each and every hardware test on the web and beyond Nvidia or ATI? same as previous RAM? How fast is your processor? well it may just be resumed as "how old is your computer" due to the fact that even low price computer tower has enough CPU power to run any game at the moment it is sold 32-bit or 64-bit system? no games are 64bits only You got enough space on your hard drive? same problem on xbox/PS3 How fast is your CD drive? lolwut ? seriously ? you really want to be taken seriously with THAT kind of question o_O Oh, wait, is the game on a DVD? same as previous Online game ? who cares, inscription is via the game interface and is no time consuming...yup even battle.net hum but you missed the REAL important part: the GPU. And there, i am totally with your point it IS the hard part (most people thinking that a GT310 is superior to a GT250 because well...310>250 when they don't know that the first number is the generation and the second is the powerclass one)

post launch support ? well yes you should be right. But technology evolves and game's programmer have now so many things to do. Back to Snes, dev were consuming more time by actually developing maps and levels, now it is all about graphics and "realism" and well, you cant pay a dev squad 8years (like lol nukem which turned out to be a total s**t) to have a perfect game, by the time it would be totally outdated (again, as DNF which had 3 different engines)

the main war between console and computer isn't about power or hacking or whatever that complex, it is just based on one thing: mouse vs joystick. yup seriously don't laugh it out loud, computer player are whining since most games are being developed for console because their interface has been screwed (in the opinion of a computer gamer) due to console not having mouse.

and yup i'm born too in the eighties, i do have a job and screw them all i won't get back to da kitchen
