[QUOTE="rastotm"]PC gaming won't die and an consoles won't die either,Ondoval

No? Then try to play the Halo 1 and 2 multiplayer in any platform outside PC. You simply can't. I still can enjoy Starcraft 1 and 2 without the need of keep Starcraft 1 due "the platform in which did arise is currently dead" as happens in consoles each 4-6 years...

In fact Diablo II was still one of the games I played the most the last year, along BC 2. Is one of the bigest selling point of PC as gaming platform: old doesn't instantly means "lost".

Sorry I don't get your post or you don't get mine, i intended to say that both the console and the PC will not die. The reasons are plain and simple: -PC's won't die because it's better suited for certain kinds of games - Consoles won't die for exactly the same reasons. - Daddy and Mommy like buying consoles for their kids better.

Yes, it will keep on dominating the sales. People who enjoyed BO will buy it People who played WaW, MW 2 and BO who apparently don't learn from mistakes will buy it.

Sony really needs to hire an outside firm to handle this. It's going from annoying to just plain sad.

OneLazyAsian

Hire MS for some vista security. Sony needs to either stop or leave. This is hilarious. They have bad security which gets jacked, and they got hacked again 4 more times just as easily? We waited 3-4 weeks for nothing?

Well looking at it the other way, it wasn't Sony's gaming division that was hit at least. I think Sony mainly updated the security to the gaming division first. It would take more than a few weeks if they were gonna update the security for every division. Looks like it came back to bite them in the ***.

Seriously? hire MS for vista security? Microsoft products have always been a joke to hacker communities. Sony gets hacked because Sony is the target, it has nothing to do with a bad security.

PC gaming won't die and an consoles won't die either, no worries the gaming industry is better business then ever. Furtheremore I believe we should stop pointing fingers and blaming cross-platform for making game's bad, as it is rediculous nonsense. People shouldn't expect games specifically made for their 2k hardware rigs, games are products made to sell in masses. If games are really of lower quality these days then it is because of the mass commercialisation of the gaming market, which forces developers to make games approachable for everyone.

Big budget PC exclusives are pretty much dead, and a lot of the developers that used to make them are turning to consoles. People need to accept it and move on.

mztazmz

This is exactly what I am going to say.

There will always be a few big ones, or games that have a far superior version on the PC, but PC people need to learn that the days of every game being superior on the PC and developers giving the PC owners far more features and content just because they are on the PC are over.

Yup, and the blame can be laid on the PC gamers themselves. If the vast majority of PC gamers stopped pirating, devs could once again make tons of great PC exclusives.

But as it stands, it's nearly impossible to make a profit on PC alone(with some rare exceptions). And don't be surprised when the witcher 2 eventually gets ported.

There is still no number on the actual damage that pirating does, there's tons of reachearch being done of it and most of them are contradicting. So please stop using these arguments untill you have rock-solid proof

I have terrible experiences with bethesda and the PS3, their lack of support in fixing critical game bugs is nothing less then criminal. So on that account i find that bethesda has to give the consoles at least some attention. That being said, the PC deserves to be the main focus as it is a superior system.

I'd hope to see some actually decent hybrids where both elements are much more present, instead of the half-assed hybrids we have these days. RPG's with far more involvement in the plot and story line, instead of the cutscene trend we see now. Furtheremore a micro oriented RTS similair to C&C generals would be nice to see. Ofcourse I can only hope for next get to have better scaling difficulties and better AI, sadly the majority of the time next gen is nothing more then a graphical update.

[QUOTE="racing1750"][QUOTE="meetroid8"][QUOTE="racing1750"] No, he's clearly saying that a game that is crap doesn't sell so well. He not once implied COD is the best video game ever.

He clearly said Good Sales = Good Product. Following that line of logic movies like Avatar and Transformers 2 must be amazing. Do you see the fallacy yet?

I see what you mean, my mistake.

Respect for the mature reply and admitting mistakes :)

[QUOTE="meetroid8"][QUOTE="brickdoctor"]

Poll wit "not MW3" is a fail. Just because you hate the series and are pumped for BF3 doesn't mena everybody else does. People always complain about the COD series being generic and overhyped but then the game sells millions anyways. If it was as crappy as you all say, it wouldn't be able to sell that much.

So I suppose Avatar must be the greatest movie ever made following your logic.

No, he's clearly saying that a game that is crap doesn't sell so well. He not once implied COD is the best video game ever.

The comment on avatar clearly implies that avatar was generic and overhyped but it sold million anyway. See the relation?
