When did this PC elitist stuff start? I know I prefer the PC over anything else, but still have a console. Same as I did when I was a kid. I had Nintendo and the PC. Hell, before that I had Intellivision and C64.
I guess it was when companies started making games for both system that the hate began. I guess that's when I started hating the console.
I don't mind playing a game like Super Mario Brothers on the console and then play something like Darksun or the old goldbox games on the PC. Both of those games took advantage of the different systems they were on. While you could (and IIRC some people have made it for the PC) play Super Mario Brothers on the PC the game is a lot more fun on the Nintendo. Same goes with Darksun. I guess they could try to rig some kind of UI for that game for the console, but it would be tedious.
It's too bad that we can't have clear distinctions between the two types of systems anymore. I'd like a more cerebral game on the PC and a more gamepad orientated one on the console……..
speaking of that. How in the hell do these people play FPS games on a freaking console. It drives me nuts that my reaction time is so slow on it. For a few it works well like in Red Dead Redemtion. I got so used to it that I turned off the targeted assists, but that's not really a pure FPS.
Oh well, at least a few companies still make the games just for our system in mind. There aren't many like CDP RED is the only one off the top of my head that truly made the game for the PC first and foremost.
I was feeling a little weird today so this has been way off topic. Just you guys got me thinking about why I hate it when I hear the word console when I own a damn console and now I figured out why. Thanks
