Consoles are the true master race(I'm not trolling)

Before you reply and call me an idiot(inb4 notice), hear me out. A console can become dated over time, sure. But what else they offer makes them better: Returns:I can currently return a game I purchased for a partial refund. With a PC, most of the stuff is digital, making this null and void. And before you whine about Steam having sales, remember that there are more digital services to choose from. Less Piracy:It is much easier to pirate a game on a PC then a console. According to the law, this is a bad thing. Game Cooperation Guarantee:I can buy an Xbox and every game I purchase for it is guaranteed to work perfectly. With a PC, I have to sometimes chance it because the game may not work too well on average settings. Before you say "check the specs u noob," remember that I don't want to spend a million years memorizing what each individual component of my PC is and exactly what it does and how to best upgrade it. Graphics Are Not All That Better:You guys say that the graphics on a PC are better, but I see little difference. Two or three more specks of dirt per square inch, but that's it. And before you call the consoles awful at graphics, check out Halo 4. [Edited on 01.03.2013 6:11 PM PST]

  • There is no master race. Fanboyism/fangirlism blinds so many in this forum, some to the point where the path to enlightenment may never be seen. Total buddhist monk moment.

  • PC don't just provide better graphics, they provide better performance. It's great to have 60+ fps on your games instead of being stuck with 30 or less on consoles. Also, Keyboard+Mouse>Gamepad for shooters.

  • This is my take on all this: Console, for someone who just wants to play games for fun easy to use just have to pop it in and play. PC, for the person who wants to get the most out of their game, with more advanced technologies and the addition of easy to access community made content. Handhelds, asshats.

On the controller you have less buttons to press and less far to reach for each button making the gaming far easier and it sits in your hands. It feels far more natural that uncomfortabe PC gaming does. [Edited on 01.03.2013 6:18 PM PST]

  • Hold your horses there cowboy. It sure doesn't take a million years to figure out what your components in your computer do. Nor does it take a PhD in rocket science to understand them. Consoles don't have bad graphics, but [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAVy6A3cbX8]it's undebatable that PCs on max settings have the better graphics.[/url]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Pride [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Halofreak60175 Also, Keyboard+Mouse>Gamepad for shooters.[/quote]LIES.[/quote] Truth. I switched over last week and it's much easier to snipe on PC. The graphics on PC games are usually better than their console counterparts. There are also mods available for games like Skyrim and Fallout 3 and New Vegas which greatly enhance the player's visual experience.

Keyboard and mouse allows for precision and faster reaction times, you move as fast as you can move your mouse, not as fast as your character turns.

  • you lost me at the part when you said graphics are not that much better. You must be using a 2001 pc because a lot of the games I play on pc that I have on console as well have far better graphics. Don't forget pc games have awesome modding communities that can expend a game to much much more and sometimes even completely changing the game to something cooler. Like CoD4 to starwars mod. Consoles have their strong points and so do pc games. To say one is better than the other is just ignorant.

I didn't think it was that bad :( OT: I like my console for being more social but my computer is much more powerful. If I get into a good ARMA community then its game over for consoles.

You have to move your hands to get between all the buttons which slows you down. In your hands the games' controller is far easier too handle without having to reposition your hands. It's far easier on console. I do both so I know.
