"There is No Time Left: Sony Must End the PC Initiative Now and Publicly Commit to Console Only Games"Are you refering to iconera? It's funny there
GTA4 was dogshit on every platform. Shit ran at like 640p on PS3, with frame drops to 10 fps.
Current game consoles have PC hardware since AMD BC250 proves that a defective PS5 APU (6 cores CPU and 24 CU RDNA enabled) can run Linux x86-64 PC with MESA RDNA 1 and MS Windows 10 with safe mode display drivers. AMD supplied a key difference from PS5 i.e. a firmware "designed for Windows" PC. I wonder if AMD BC250's UEFI chip can replace in PS5's.

Unlike consoles, PCs don't need exclusives. The advantage of PC is that it can play (nearly) everything. Completely different set of benefits over consoles. There's also no tribalism outside of storefronts to worry about. A PC can be whatever you want it to be. Want a PC for only playing Playstation games? You could technically do that if you want. Get custom LEDs and mount an Aloy head inside too, if you nashty.
Customization, options, compatibility. Those are the big advantages to gaming on PC, IMO. You can ascend past console wars and exclusives and become zen itself.
No? Consoles usually use max texture quality or at least high.I mean you left out the fact that consoles usually end up using medium settings, textures often being one of them and it makes a huge fidelity difference
hm?The latest doom games on console......
It's just funny is all. I concede that some controller players are very skilled. I don't have a strong opinion on Doom specifically having not ever played it on controller. But in general I do object to some of the aim assist features that are applied to controller input in FPS games.
A non gamer using a controller for the first time is "funny"
Indeed but it also helps that PC has more exclusives than every console ever released, COMBINED.Unlike consoles, PCs don't need exclusives.

sir, we have gotten upscaled wank for 12 years now, stop touching your old consoles for a minuteI remember getting my first PC back in 1997 (an IBM Aptiva with Windows 95). While it wasn't the best at running the latest 3D games it was something I still dabbled in (buying Computer Shopper and trying the demos).
Back then there were so many exclusives which, if you had a 3DFX card absolutely blew consoles out of the water
Half-Life
Quake II/ Quake 3 Arena
Thief: The Dark Project
Tom Clancey's Rainbow Six
Homeworld
System Shock 2
Grim Fandango
Unreal Tournament
These games would remain exclusive to PC for years and, if they ever did get ported to console, they would either be severely diminished or something that barely resembled the PC version at all.
Now these types of game all come to console on the same day and, apart from some small resolution differences are exactly the same game.
Then there's online, while you have to pay for console online, consoles get online capability day 1, just as they do on PC.
Many here keep pushing PC due to it having more console games without realising that it's a two way street, consoles now have all the big PC games.
When did all those change, was it the PS3/360 generation?
PC's glory years

PS5 APU's Zen 2 is a very compact version with 6 cores delivering just Ryzen 5 2600X (six-core Zen 1.5 with four 128-bit AVX2 pipelines). PS5 Zen 2 has half the cache and about half the AVX2 throughput when compared to desktop PC's Zen 2.Someone run games on AMD BC-250 under Linux * Cut down PS5 die to 6 CPU cores 24 GPU cores for use in crypto mining

The Nerfed FPU in PS5's Zen 2 CoresThe Nerfed FPU in PS5’s Zen 2 Cores
Fritzchens Fritz’s awesome die photos revealed that the Playstation 5’s Zen 2 cores spend less die area on their FPUs than their desktop cousins.
PS5's Zen 2 cores represent an early AMD effort to reduce core area. They show that AMD is very capable of customizing their cores to meet customer demands, even if they don't publicly advertise configuration options as Arm Ltd does. The cut down FPU in Zen 2 reminds me of Cortex A510's ability to be configured with different FP pipe counts, letting customers make the performance and area tradeoff they want.
I don't think anyone said the PC doesn't have exclusives anymore.
Name the big Singleplayer exclusives then that the PC is suppose to have like it did 20 years ago
It doesn't have many if any, when did I say it did?
Then what were you laughing at about my post, then on the next one saying no one said PC doesn't have exclusives, which as far as the top triple A games it doesn't.
Probably because you claimed that Crysis was the last big exclusive on PC.
Because it was, thats why, name the one after that
Top of my head?
Counterstrike isnt a SP game, it was born from Half Life from 1998 and is MP and Delta Force is a free to play game and also MP, i said SP games main top games.
Did you? I must have missed that, I just talking about big exclusives. Didn't realised we'd narrowed the parameters.
Your doing it wrong if you pay the sticker price for PC games.
i don't know how long you've gamed on PC but from 1995 to Crysis in 2007, the top SP games were PC only as i stated and you accused me of not being good at reading, you know what i meant Clarky, neither of the MP games you mentioned were anything like Half Life 1 and 2 or Fear 1, Quake, Doom or Crysis, the exclusives the OP is talking about is the top triple A SP games not all the MP ones and Counterstrike is from the last century anyway. and to be honest i've never heard of Delta Force.
If you buy just enough for what you need, they aren't that expensive.
I was simply replying to this post:
By which I was agreeing with the OP( and you it turns out), that it doesn't really have BIG exclusives anymore, but does have exclusives. I think you misunderstood my post, untwist your knickers it's Sunday.
Half life Alyx, Euro&America Truck Simulator, total war warhammer 3, Satisfactory, DCS World, Arma 3, X4 that i can think of. All fairly popular by reasonably sized studios, not including games that got late console ports like Wreckfest or Civ 6.
Sorry disagree, only Half Life Alex from that list really counts and that was VR, where had they made it normal SP it would of broke the internet as for the other games they were no where near the impact and reputation of the games before that i mentioned, not in the same league, no one id saying the PC doesn't have exclusives but the top SP games are all multiplatform now and PC is not the main focus like it once was.
