Turning an AVID console gamer candidate to PC gaming....

1 million beggars begging for leagues in FIFA

lol consoles

You get console gamers into PC gaming when they realize they don't have to pretend not to be able to see above 20-30 fps.

I'm a console gamer who won't move to PC any time soon. Console gaming just makes my games just work. Where as PC gaming I have to play around with settings and PC requirements to get it to work. Yup pass.

In this age, if you have a decent PC you dont haveto do any of that, you can play on default settings. No one is forcing you to turn the settings up, those are options.

@Motokid6 I'm not talking about just the multiplayer. I'm talking about I pop in the disk start it up and play single player and keep it moving. If multiplayer doesn't work that is a whole different ballpark and plus nine out of ten time you should know that is a sever issue on MS or the game developers side anyway. Rarely is that a system configuration problem or something on your end. For me console have a lot less ghost hunting troubleshooting.

@pelvis yes you do to a degree I tried running a game once on the Intel Integrated Graphic 4000 not pretty at all to may frame drops. Plus the tech savy me has to just to make sure the game plays just right where it may not shudder but I see where you are coming from. Just depends on the PC. One of those thing where you get what you pay for.

@Motokid6:

oh ok I'm not about to argue up and down this forum about this. Look PC gaming has it's advantages ok. And I still stick by my convictions that there are plug and play. Now are they completely plug in play like they were back before all console started gaming online no. But they still are just simple dummy terminals for me to use just for gaming. I mean a PC catches a virus and their goes your gaming experience, your streaming device, you machine you use for internet purposes, and practically everything you ever do. Where as my console goes down we damn there just goes my entertainment. Oh and faulty inconsistent service is in all services not just MS. People have been paying for years for those bigger MMO company's internet services and even they have down moments. So yeah I purposely choose to drink the console kool-aid and it tastes fine.

And lets not forget all the broken Ubisoft games on console, which unlike the PC versions, can't be fixed with a simple google search.

Consoles have been a bigger pain in the ass lately.

millions of pc losers signing petitions for console games

lolpcgaming

ahahahah

pathetic.

You mean the people who petitioned for GTA V? You mean the game franchise which came into existence on the PC and for the fifth iteration Rockstar kept their mouths entirely shut about what they were doing with it? Why wouldn't people petition for it, they wanted information, it's not a console franchise, it's always been multi-platform. The only reason it was kept quiet was due to Rockstar overhauling it along side the PS4/XB1 versions which they also kept quiet about...

no i mean the countless other console exclusives that pc peasants have to petition for.

What other games? Also PC peasants? You do realize that calling PC gamers peasants is an oxymoron...

Try playing any other league in FIFA?

Cannot?

Begging for it?

Closed nazi platforms made for slaves?

stop feeding trolls, please....hell, look at his name

It hurts that many of those petitions come to fruition?

What about that 1 mil sigs petition for FIFA leagues?

Nazi closed console peasant castles wont let u mod leagues into it?

Consoles are for kids to young adults and game pcs are for older people who don't date anymore and are boring. No need to mix them.

U must be very good craftsman...

Why would they want to play a tiny screen while hunching on a desk, sitting on a uncomfortable chair with mouse and keyboard that arent designed for gaming and having no games to play because pc gaming is dying and has no exlusives not to mention having to pay 2.000$ for a good pc.

Peasants never learn.

Hey guys, my Intel HD 4600 can play CS:GO, DOTA 2, League of Legends, and Team Fortress 2. Does that mean I'm a PC gamer? lol

do you play those games?

I was joking because the term "PC gamer" is a broad one. One does not need a $2k rig to be a PC gamer....annnnd I despise CS;GO. I do play LoL and TF2 every now and then.

No

If you wish to get console gamers into PC gaming maybe stop calling them peasants or kids or stupid. They,re not going to embrace the PC community if you keep insulting them.

Big Picture Mode still isnt perfect. SOmetimes i have to exit out of BPM to get the game to launch

necro necro necro necro

And here I also thought gaming was about getting the games to play when all along it's apparently about the FPS. smh

Your literally using a glorified QTE game with minimal replay value, thought process, with a extremely short length as the guiding example why he should go back to consoles? This isn't helping your case.. The Order is basically a shining example to what is wrong with the AAA industry right now and the tools are making it worse by trying to claim that this kind of thing is ok.

See as a pc gamer I probably would have gotten something like one of the new consoles right now if it weren't for the fact that they have lost features since last gen.. Quite fucking literally the PS3 does MORE THINGS now than the PS4, I mean wtf is that? How are people defending these kind of design decisions by console developers?

Unless you are an active criminal it's difficult now to justify pc over consoles.

Every single player with a large budget, is generally designed with consoles in mind, with the pc getting a late port, that sometimes borders on terrible. Grand Theft Auto 5 (for example) is years behind the console version, and that series started off on the pc.

When sitting 5-6 feet away from the tv, unless you have a microscope, most people wont notice any difference other than the massive price point.

The consoles also have exclusives due to being specific company bossiness, most people when possible go multiplatform, meaning they will be on consoles as well.

For tablet style games, the pc excels, due open nature, cheap weak hardware to the point of a cell phone can run them. Likewise, MMO's have never taken off on consoles.

For bejewel style gaming and MMO's, pc is the place to go. For everything else (FPS/TPS/RPG), in general, AAA blockbusters, consoles win.

Strategy games don't count.

@uninspiredcup:

Couldn't agree more.

Hahaha you have resorted to sad trolling level?

AAA? Here on Gamespot? Only Gamespot scores count on SYSTEM WARS.

Where are the AAA PS4/Xbone exclusives?

None?

Trolling of excluding Strategy?

If I say Shooting Games dont count?

What are you left with on consoles?

Stategy games are not popular on consoles, so obviously they are excluded.

Every other genre viable, barring MMO's exceeds on consoles. That's just a fact. What you think is irrelevant to the equation, it's set.

@True_Gamer_: Maybe if you didn't try turning anyone into anything and instead let them decide for themselves?

If someone likes consoles....they like consoles. Why are you trying to deter them from something they enjoy.

In turn...how would you like if someone made a post about how to turn a someone into a console gamer.

;/ console for the exclusives, PC for the mods different strokes for different folks.

So you count what is popular and subjectively where?

Who made you the king of trolls?

You decide which trolling standards to apply here?

Again failed troll.

Ill wait for AAA exclusive games here on Gamespot.

@mr_huggles_dog

Ive informed my friend that IF HE WANTED TO ENJOY his FAVOURITE TEAM and LEAGUE in FIFA15 he could do that ONLY ON PC.

€600 Later he enjoys his fx6300 280x 8gb ram PC (all included)...

And his favourite team

Which in the closed lobotomized nazi system of consoles would never be possible.

@True_Gamer_: Pseudo console-emulation like Big Picture only gives PC players a mere hint at what a console offers. It would be like saying: show a PC player the browser on your Xbox and ta-da!

:D:D:D:D:D This guy is bragging about The Order. Oh my god man. You can't just take a game and brag about one of its aspects while ignoring the 100 others that are absolute shit.

Yeah, it's so much better.

Destroyed.

He has a bit of an identity crisis. He can't decide if he is a cow or a lemming. But, whatever, they both eat grass.

Harsh times for either faction. Desperately hyping up that next 'big' exclusive...

Thread is a fair bit past its shelf life to be bumped.
