Report Copyright Violation PC gaming sucks compared to console gaming heres why I just realized PC gaming is a waste of time and most importantly money.



In order to get a bad ass gaming experience...you are going to need a graphics card that will cost 300 dollars minimum. Yes you will play high end games on a 300 or less dollar graphics card but your always going to want more quality, and when you turn up your settings, your system wont be able to handle the load. Then you will tell yourself you need the 500 dollar card, and the 1000 dollar card.



Why not just get a PS3 and get very close to high end for graphics?

Report Copyright Violation Re: PC gaming sucks compared to console gaming heres why The 300 dollar cards will play any of the current games on Maximum graphics with Smooth FPS.



And current systems can handle any of the games that have been recently released with no problems.



Consoles are holding gaming back because the games need to work for PC and Console at the same time.





Take Battlefield 3 for example.



They had to tone down the graphics of the console version of BF3 and the PC version is much better looking.



And a 300 dollar card will play BF3 on ultimate settings.

You are so wrong. I bought a GeForce GTX 550TI for $150 and it can play anything out there at maximum settings. You are so wrong. I bought a GeForce GTX 550TI for $150 and it can play anything out there at maximum settings.

So you just put a card in it instead of buying the PS3 or Xbox.





Those Consoles are SOO OLD.





They need to update the hardware because its pretty sad, they are being pushed to the limit, basically they cant do anything else with them because they are maxxed out.

Consoles are not holding games back. Because of the pressure to keep up with hardware, especially if developers could go "all out" as you suggest, hardware upgrades every 18-24 months would be required for the largest group of consumers on the market.



PC games just wouldn't be able to sell the number of units to allow the companies to make money and get better in the first place. Consoles are not holding games back.

It is the PC that has and always will push gaming to the limit, so you know nothing joystick jockeys can pretended to be badass gamers every 7-8 years or so.
