Yeah that's a good idea. Getting a PC from scratch is going to be more expensive and you'll miss out on exclusives but upgrading from one gen to the next is much cheaper, plus games are usually cheaper as well.

I wait till he gets off his horse and just steal it then run around the Map for a few minutes taking passes at him now and then.

I don't want to miss Bloodborne or SF5, but it sounds like next gen is leaning towards that way. GAF has convinced me of the long term benefits of PC gaming is.
Missing Bloodborne will suck, if you can stomach that then it's worth it.

SF5 is going to be on PC.

Well, you're missing all future exclusives. It's not black and white. The best way to go is to have both. PC for longevity and optimization, while console for immediacy and exclusives.

This is the way to go. Just pick up a PS4 when the prices eventually go down and pick up all of the exclusives you want for it. Until then just stick it out with your PC.

You have other console exclusives that'll you miss out on.
But if it's one or the other, I'll recommend PC every single time.

If you have a PC you can always wait for a price drop and pick it up in the future
General speaking, that's how I approach PC gaming. I double dip on certain titles when they're dirt cheap because they're future proof (to an extent).
Exclusives will stay exclusives, though.

My Wii U has been holding me over thus far. If PC gaming can get me though to beyond current gen to next gen, I don't mind paying slightly more and learning how to do it myself.
Besides, the thing keeping me from gaming down to road will be costs. If a gaming PC drives my games budget down, I'm all for it.
There are some exceptions, KI might get a PC port after all but yeah most exclusives are going to stay that way.

I've saved over thousand dollars from Steam, and I have more games than I probably will ever play.
If you actually play every game you buy, you'll save so much money.

That's what emulation is for. (If you're patient enough to wait for however long it takes for the emulator to be fully functional)
Building a PC was definitely the best gaming decision I've made.
But Wii U stole me away.
Skullgirls jumping on that MVC train.

Its just something MikeZ is trying out in the PC BETA version for now. Nothing final, just fucking around for now.

It's called the last, but it's not the last.
This looks legit, except the name is Boruto which sounds like a dumb knock-off of Naruto (even though I know that's his actual name is supposed to be Bolt).
they announced it like 2 months ago.

Does that mean Naruto is actually pronounced Nalt?

Oh shit it's Tali!
Naruto lore is one thing I don't want to dip my toe in.
Soruto should be Woolie's ninja name

How on earth did you find a Mac amiibo...
Yeah or Kishimoto is just that predicatable...
You wanted Naruto to end up with Sakura?
That would have been Truly the ultimate rebound.
No, I wanted Naruto to die at the end.
you can buy them for 50$ off amazon

That would have meant that Naruto simp mission would have been a success.
Nice tree!
That Guilty Gear boxart tho. God i cant wait
Haha, but I do legit think Naruto flat out gave up at that point, he asked her out randomly, but I think he seriously knew that Sakura wanted the sauce.

There's a couple near me in ToysRUS and Best Buy.
These things are flying off the shelves? Not near me I guess.
Really? They're like £10 at GAME.
buy me one and ship it to me then. It's my birthday next year.
I wonder if the Amiibos are region locked lol
they aren't, just games.
Amiibos are madness right now.
Ordered from BB when they had a Buy 2 get 1 deal, and it worked on Amiibos along with GCU discount.
So I got Captain Falcon, Lil Mac and GGXrd LE for cheap, plus one of the figures free.
GGXrd LE only cost me $25 too!
