True, but go back and give pong a go and see what you think of it now.

It's just rose-tinted glasses. For example I loved Goldeneye on the N64 at the time, but wow, it is terrible to play now.

No thanks and I've been playing since the early 90s.

I couldn't go back to such primitive games no matter what hipster craze is going on at the moment. At the time I would have killed for what we have now.

RPS talked about the 'lack of diversity' as a problem.

Yeah, the lack of diversity in Medieval Europe...morons.

Remember years ago when you could buy complete games? I do.

Microtransactions are a cancer.

@uth11 woozy123 gave a characterisation of PC gamers obsessing over how their PC performs compared to consoles which I don't as consoles are completely uninteresting to me. As for 'boasting' it's not a boast, just a fact in response to someone who thinks that PCs being superior to consoles technically is a 'belief' which is delusional as a machine with fixed specs frozen in time obviously cannot compete with something that can be upgraded.

That's the best thing about a console: just turn it on and play. But I think once you see games on max settings/higher resolutions/60FPS+ it's hard to go back. That's what happened with me anyway after being happy with a Wii for years and then being blown away after having a go on a mate's crazy PC.

But as you say if you just want to turn it on and play and not have to deal with tinkering to get it just right consoles are much better.

I'm just someone whose hobby is building PCs and running games at the highest settings. It's strange this PC vs console rivalry as why would anyone care about someone whose hobby is essentially the same as theirs taking it further? I have an average car, but it doesn't bother me at all that there are people spending lots of money on fast high-performing cars that are much better than mine. I have an average compact camera, but it doesn't bother me there are people running arou...

If you are wanting the best graphics possible then PC is the superior platform; belief has nothing to do with it. I'm not ignorant of the Sony/Microsoft consoles, I just can't see the point when I have a PC with superior performance. If a console does things differently or has different types of games that aren't available on PC then I would consider it which is why I have owned Nintendo consoles in the past and am considering getting their new one (that handheld thing with a dock...

I have a high-end PC and am not like that at all. You shouldn't generalise so much.

Bizarre comments. I am a PC gamer and the reason I have no interest in the Sony/Microsoft consoles is that they are just weak gaming PCs and I want to ramp the graphics up to '11'. That's not to say there's anything wrong with consoles at all as they are a great choice if you can't be bothered tinkering.

A slightly more powerful console is not going to drag me away from my PC. How that makes me 'arrogant' is beyond me.

It isn't and you are showing how little you know with that comment. The only thing that is playing 4K well at the moment is a top of the line PC with sli 1080s/Titan X's which the PS4 Pro is nowhere near as powerful as.

I've got a single 1080, but even that isn't enough for high settings/60FPS at 4K on recent games.

Battlefield is hardly the only FPS in town. Planetside 2 is far superior in every way except for graphics and has just got Command and Conquer style base-building added to it. I played BF1 for a couple of hours before getting bored out of my mind by the small scale and repetitive fighting over the same points.

The last Battlefield game I enjoyed was BC2 and it's been downhill since then.

Of course it won't, it's EA. They will spam it with DLC for 12 - 18 months before hyping the next game.

It's immature to post this?

'Would be a nice spot to behead some witches and sorcerers...what a horrible place.'

The thing is the Saudis actually DO behead so-called witches and sorcerers. Are you trying to say it isn't a horrible place?

Usage varies on whether using the singular or plural for companies and other groups.

Both are fine.

Depends what kind. The Planetside 2 micro-transactions largely consist of cosmetic items.

I thought the same thing until I backed his Kickstarter project Godus under false pretences that it would be a proper PC game and a successor to Populous. What we got was a cash-grab, Facebook cow clicker and zero communication or updates for months.

I have no respect for him whatsoever if that's how he treats customers and fans. He is a has been and I can only assume that his success at Bullfrog was due to being surrounded by a team of talented people.
