Graphics difference PC and console are pretty much irrelevant. PC always wins. Question is by how much margin.

At 1080p already PC is ahead of any console since PC generally offers much better Textures, AA, AF, Shadows Etc.

Then you have PC gamers who area already gaming at resolutions like 1440, 4k, 5k. With every step PC just leaps that much ahead of console graphics.

For the PC gamers who are currently playing this at 1080p or below the bo...

I made the shift to 4k about 1 year back. A 4k IPS display looks bloody amazing. Specially i have become a believer in IPS displays.

Xcom 2 is amazing. Good decision to keep it exclusive. This should keep selling for years on end.

Well AMD uses HBM with the Fury X, however we note that Fury X gets out performed by Nvidia 980 TI.

Hence Memory bandwidth alone means nothing. I have a 980 TI Sli in my PC yet overclocking the Memory doesnt provide much boost as overclocking the GPU.

Memory bandwidth becomes a factor at very high resolutions think triple screen 4k gaming. Current GPUs are very efficient in their use of memory bandwidth specially Nvidia made lots of improvements with the GTX ...

@Eiyuuou

Its a silly argument people like to parrot over and over again regarding cost.

Question for you. How many HD remakes have you bought this gen? How much have paid to play online over the last decade? Nevermind not getting the sort of discounts available on GmG or Steam.

Personally i havent purchased a single HD remake. You know why? cause PC has literally infinite BC. I play old games like CS Go in 4k, I play a game like Left4Dead 2 ...

Agreed, I dont see one console exclusive this gen thats worth buying of a console.

On the other hand the PC has such awesome games:

CS : GO
Dota 2
Portal Series
Left 4 dead series
Total war Series
Arma Series
Lol

In total over 8000 games on Steam alone. Not to mention years and years of BC or emulation of pretty much every console ever released.

There is no way PS4 or XB1 with t...

Really depends how many kids can convince their parents to get them a 400-500usd accessory for a 400usd console.

I remember the last time around with Street Figther IV Capcom actually shipped DLC characters on Disk. Modders found the files on disk unlocked for free.

I really hope Capcom dont resort nickle dimming the customer with paid DLC costumes.

Any how i am sure modders will make costumes available for free.

I must have spent countless hours on games like Quake 2 and Quake 3 Arena. I remember playing Quake 3 on my CRT monitor back then on Nvidia Riva TNT 2 @ a resolution of 1024*768. 3D graphics were still in their infancy back then, but man were the battles fierce between companies like 3DFX, Nvidia, ATI, S3 and Matrox.

Those games were very very fast paced, very skill dependent. Though still i find myself playing a lot of CS GO, TF2 lately, the magic hasnt really gone yet just ...

We really need another Elder Scrolls game.

I have been on a complete media black out on this game. I just saw some videos thats about it, once it releases on other platforms people will talk about it.

Just was a bad decision on the developers part to fall for money hats. Should have released on all platforms at once.

Not that charging for online is fair to begin with. However if you look closely these cost increases are in countries like:

Brazil
Argentina
Mexico
Colombia

The currencies of these countries have devalued by a good 40-50% over the last year. Hence if the price increase is in their local currency terms then its probably a fair increase. However if the increase is in USD terms then thats a bit much.

Lol true i played the first one just last month in anticipation of the next release. Played the game in 1080p at release. Last month played it in 4k dam it was a different experience.

Its a "Console exclusive" Sony terms it clearly.

Cant wait for the PC release.

Witcher 1 HD versions already there ;-)

There are very good texture mods for that game. Get the PC version download texture mods the game looks pretty good for its age better than most last gen RPGs.

@showtime

PC versions can be had as little as 5 usd on steam discounts. Not a bad deal for 50+ hours of game on each of them. Witcher 2 actually having 2 story lines to it. Replaying both makes it a 100 hour game.

Add starcraft and warcraft to that list ;-) Red alert the initial ones those were addictive RA 1 & 2 after that the series went down hill.

Doom
Quake
Duke nukem
Unreal
Half life
Far Cry
Crysis
Battle Field

The graphics wars between Epic vs ID, 3dfx vs Nvidia was an amazing time.
