While our gaming industry today is conceived of multilateral face-offs by next-gen consoles, mobile phones, and tablets, Tracey Lien from Polygon shares an interesting fact supporting the ever-growing notion of "PC Master Race". As such, the article exemplifies the different opinions of developers and producers on the past and present significance of consoles and how they could not compete over the PC over the next few years and how, ultimately, it would be PC gaming versus mobile gaming.
The long-awaited follow-up to the critically acclaimed real-time space strategy is being created by developers from the original team with a new, bespoke engine.
After years, a sequel to the notorious Star Control franchise, Star Control IV, has finally been confirmed to be in pre-production planning by Stardock.
Yes, I loved the first game. I really hope they have a good budget to everything they want into it. A lot of found memories battling ships in the multi player.
The Humble Stardock Wayfarers Bundle just launched today. It features Star Control: Origins Galactic Edition, Offworld Trading Company, and The Political Machine 2020, and more. As usual, you pay what you want. A percentage goes to support charity.
Polygon.... smh... anyway.
Well it's not really PC versus anything if you think about it for a second. After-all are the next gen consoles not simply 'patented' PC's with a brand and trademark behind them?
The same is true of Tablets and mobile phones. They are all evolving into mobile 'personal computers'. To me the argument is moot. underneath the hood, they're really all different types of 'computing systems'.
The point of consoles are the games + the sofa + big TV screen. That whole package makes console gaming a diferent and unique experience.
If I had the choice to be able to play [insert AAA game here], I would choose to play it in my lounge, on the sofa, infront of my TV, with my surround sound speakers booming.
The console makes that possible.
It's all about the games
You pick PC and you miss out on a HUGE amount of great games only available on console.
You pick PS4/XBONE you pretty much get all the games that come out on PC, PLUS that HUGE amount of great games only available on console.
It really is a no brainer.
Let's not this fanboy delusions cloud your judgement
What is with Polygon today...
I've seen nothing but bad stuff coming from them about the PS4 and never the XBOX.
It's clearly not worth it yet.
