Yup, both the Witcher 3 and Bloodborne are still in the runnings, they were great games. Hopefully we get another amazing RPG with Fallout as well. The year of the RPG?
I like how it allows you to play local co-op as well as letting someone take over your game.
I prefer the community made designs here: http://www.twinfinite.net/2...
The AT-AT one and the C-3PO one are awesome.
Generally if a PC game is broken you can search http://pcgamingwiki.com/wik... for a fix and be up and running in no time. If a console game is broken, Skyrim, Fallout 3 on PS3 anyone? What do you do?
You also need to realize that expectations differ, if a game runs at 30fps on consoles then you don't mind, if a game runs like that on PC, people will complain the game is broken.
And they shouldn't, that was my point. Why do we spend time arguing about how other people chose to play games.
If you look at the minimum and recommended specs for most new titles they surpass the console specs. It is more likely for a developer to have console as a main platform than low end PCs. Whether it actually does hold back PC or not is another story but I believe that is the logic behind the idea.
I do find it funny when console gamers attack PC Gaming as a whole as some people have worse rigs than you. I have a dual 980 / 1440p setup and I am very happy with it. Why should I care that some people (including console gamers) play games at worse resolutions and framerates.
PC Gamer here, happy to see the windows 10 cross buy and the games coming to windows 10. Crackdown 3 and Halo Wars 2 are awesome. Not seen the Scalebound or Quantum Break videos yet.
I'm using 980 SLI and running a 1440p GSync monitor. I feel like I don't have enough headroom to play at 4k and retain 60fps / ultra settings.
Steam is free and they give you a different quota per game. Portal 2 gives you 1GB of cloud storage alone.
So far just Bloodborne for me if we are talking exclusives. Lots of great multiplats though.
I like Halo, it's one of the only (actually the only this gen) FPS games that I bother to play on console. It is probably one of the closest game franchises we have to a PC shooter on console. Excluding occasional releases like Wolfenstein or Shadow Warrior.
Steam was not hacked, your personal information is safe as long as your account was not compromised due to the password reset bug. You would need to have Steam Guard disabled for them to login.
For those who do not know how this happened.
Before yesterday it was possible to reset someone's password, you only needed to know their name. It got patched shortly after it went public.
Err, you buy them off MS. I doubt they send you more than you buy lol.
Deciding to hold that much stock means 1 of 2 things. You guys are idiots or you expect to sell the things.
That does seem extremely low although I don't know the averages in New Zealand. Unfortunately this is one of the industries where people will allow themselves to be exploited in order to break into the industry. In the end this just hurts everyone looking for a game dev job. I wonder how quickly these guys will burn out.
I have not bought a physical game for PC in 15 years yet I own 466 games on Steam. I imagine (total guesswork) the digital vs physical ratio for PC is at least 10 : 1
You are mistaken to a point. Steamworks is the multiplayer solution used by a lot of steam games.
Consistently shoddy? You named 2 games in a time span of 8 years lol. Most PC ports are fine. No worse than the console versions at least. You also have to realize there are different standards. Lots of console games run at 20 - 30fps which is normal there but on PC that is considered terrible.
It's also not like launch day issues are a PC specific problem. They are getting more and more common, driveclub and the halo collection are recent examples of this.
That's because it isn't counter strike. Can't say I blame them, CS caters to the PC crowd better.
