No there isn't, games are on more devices than ever now including phones and handhelds etc, you can play them nearly anywhere now, and not much is exclusive now and i'm not crying about it either. the thread is about PC not getting the big exclusives anymore.
Games being on phones and little handhelds are only a threat to consoles. They have no effect on PC at all, you would never want to play a proper PC RTS, or a SIM game o a proper shooter on any of those devices anyway, they have console stick controls.
Yeah, i don't use them for gaming but plenty do.
Those little devices are a two way street. The 'gamers' who play on phones might have never ever bothered trying some games on consoles or PC had they not tried some games on a phone and thought 'hey this is kinda cool let me see how playing on a proper gaming machine looks and feels like'.
DOTA 2 as well as WoW Classic/retail as well are huge. Definitely bigger and more played than any Sony exclusive at one time concurrently (daily). The only large exclusive game I'd say that can top those is something like Mario Kart.
i've never classed them the same as PC and Console games, infact they are mostly cash cows to me, but they rake in a lot of money for the gaming industry so i doubt they are going away anytime soon.
Doesn't count apparently
Sadly they are not.. the mobile gaming revenue keeps on growing, but whatever floats their boat as saying goes. Same as some people loves fast food even though nowadays you can almost afford to go to a little cafe/little restaurant and get a solid proper healthier meal for a very similarish price. These fast food lovers are same people who loves mobile gaming.
Its a weird argument tbh. These games and franchises have been around for decades. And are still among the most played games.
I can't speak for fast food lovers lol, i have a takeaway now and then, but Mobile games are here to stay.
You bought all the top PC games but dont even remember Delta Force an IP strong enough that they brought it back decades later.
Don't count either. Multiplayer games you see.
yeah, agreed, that's what i said, no i didn't play the Delta forces back then, it was Doom, Quake, Hexen, Heretic, Blood, Half Life, Unreal, Sin, Daggerfall, the Dark Forces games and Tomb Raider also RTS like Command and Conquer, Total Annihilation, Age Of Empires and Dark Reign etc, there were so many great PC games to play that you were spoilt for choice, i came to Fallout through Bethesda, not the Original game and knew nothing about Fallout until Fallout 3.
There was a big military shooter genre with Delta Force, CoD, Rainbow Six, Battlefield, Medal of Honor etc in that period. Delta Force was one of the early ones - I have fond memories of sniping the single pixel that represented my enemy back in the day.
Yeah I played Medal of Honor Allied Assault, Pacific Assault, and Cod 1,2 and 4, also great games. not forgetting Return to Castle Wolfenstein as well, I never got into Battlefield and Rainbow Six, but they always had a big following and were popular, FEAR 1 is still my top fps of them all, loved it
Nah I heard PC2 is just gonna be an xbox with PC branding.
wait until the phones seamlessly dock and support m/k.
