yeah making your PC custom is what you want, you get to select from the finest case makers, then get specially designed components hand crafted by the chinese who control the machines that do it, you get to have 1000 boxes of high quality artwork around the house, slotting it all together hoping your labour of love is fruitful in the end and with baited breath you… hit the on button, you here a whirrr as the PSU kicks in – few its all good -, the beep means MB is powering on… alright, your looking at it POSTing…. $hit ram not working (damn i new i left something out !!) switch rinse and repeat.. its starts POSTing all is ok pheeeewwwww time to install windows 😀

Console like everything else american components japanese components… all built in taiwan. bout as special as those stupid fcking Platinum trophies ps players earn that mean fck all

I’d wager those computer manufactures are in decline because more people are building custom PC’s more and more these days. lol did not read the entire post,beat me to it. yup, you are correct.

I am not here to harass or rub it in any gamers face about PC this and console sucks but facts are still facts.It is the reason I finally built a custom gaming rig. I always wanted to do it but never had the money.

I cannot imagine any gamer out there who if given the chance or had the money ,wouldn’t want a gaming PC.

The “it’s too complicated and too expensive” or “I like to sit on the couch,play with a controller” excuses don’t fly no more. All of that and more can be done with a computer.

What is your point exactly? I highly doubt your phone can emulate the amount and equal the performance that a decent PC can. even IF it could,what about the rest?

Yeah the people saying PC is dead use a limited number of PC manufacturers like Dell HP, Sony etc and they are indecline but they arent gaming PC’s there just PC’s. If they took all of it into account like cyberpower for example which are PC gaming orientated sellers itll be much higher. Also alot of people like to build there gaming rig so that wont be included in the results either so its horse $hit really. It is growing the game devs just need to code efficiently so were arent constantly trying to brute force through there laziness and the PC will give out some amazing visuals more than now

No it doesn’t. I can emulate on my phone too so nope.

That chart speaks for it’s self. Throw in better multiplatform games,MODS and the ability to emulate tons of games from just about any platform. PC wins hands down.

If anything I am hearing the complete opposite. That PC gaming is growing! supposedly at an all time high as of recent.

I am betting a lot more gamers will take the plunge this gen after they realize that their new console of choice is severely underpowered and they are stuck with it for the next 6-10 years,however long this Gen lasts.

Proof?: Myself. I recently built a gaming PC because I wanted the freedom and better hardware/software advantages that only the PC can offer.

Finding out that the new systems were already dated at release made the move pretty damn easy as well. I knew if I saved up a little bit longer,I would reap the benefits of my patience.I’m sincerely happy that I did.No regrets.

I was sick of wondering if,when or ever, mods would come to consoles.I could not go another release of say,Fallout or Elder scrolls without having access to the amazing mods that come out on PC.

Almost every game on PC that I have played has mod support officially or unofficially. Don’t like a certain games AA mode or find that it is hurting performance? that’s cool, just use an AA injector like FXAA,SMAA etc. All of these things are just a few examples.

For any gamer out there on the fence about going next gen or building a gaming rig,trust me, just go the PC route.you will not regret it. Yeah, they take a little bit more maintenance but at the end of the day it will all be worth it.

I told myself I’d never get like some of these “PC Elitists” so I do not mean to come off as a jerk or anything.I am not rich,I had to wait a very long time so I could get exactly what I wanted. If you really cannot afford it or you prefer the consoles,fine. to each their own. I’ve owned just about every single gaming console since the first Nintendo before anyone accuses me of being biased.

To those that want better performance,visuals,controls and way more options and freedom – Look into building a gaming computer.

LMAO GTFO with that bullshit. PC devs are going multiplatform because they smell more money. It honestly would be bad business not to. That does not mean PC is a dying market. Far from it.

I think steam would like to have a lil chat with you buddy. 75 Million users and counting.

Damn,I actually didn’t know that Destiny wasn’t coming out on PC. You console guys/gals enjoy! Pretty f**ked up though if you ask me. 500 million $$$ and you are telling me they couldn’t make a port for the PC? I know I know…that is for marketing and the total lifespan of the game but still.

There are FAR more exclusives on PC than any console.
