RTS games are the one type of game that I really wish I could get into, but no matter how hard I try, I just can't.
I find them to be too slow and dull, but I know that there are a lot of highly rated RTS games out there, so I feel like I'm missing out.
Maybe someday I will learn to love them.
*Ok, thanks imvix, I will look into it.
The fact that my graphics card alone (Sapphire 5870 Vapor-X) was more expensive than a PS3 when I bought it pretty much says it all when it comes to the power of modern day PC graphics cards.
I loved Prey, but I honestly do not care if "Tommy" is in the second game.
If the game is good, than that is all that matters to me.
Sometimes I think that gamers are just looking for things to bitch about. lol
Well, that is certainly interesting, but I'm wondering how much latency this will have.
Oh, and those songs being played were absolutely horrible. lol
Very cool concept, though.
Could be huge if decent songs are offered.
I'm less concerned about graphical differences and more concerned about the controller when it comes to playing FPS games.
The 360's controller is incredible, while the PS3's Dualshock feels like it was made for the hands of a 9 year old asian boy.
Playing games with the Dualshock is like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube while wearing mittens. lol

"horrible game. it looks like it was released 12 years ago. seriously needs polish in animation and graphics"
That's what I said the first time I saw MAG.
I don't need a new console, but it would be nice if developers would start taking advantage of the PC hardware that I already have. :/
The textures in this game are looking incredible.
I would LOVE to see it running on my PC (5870 and Phenom 945).
WTF did I just watch?
My PC is connected to my 50" Samsung plasma and my 7.1 home theater setup.
I game from my couch (6.5 feet away) with a wireless 360 controller.
1920x1080 and 60+ FPS all day, every day.
I look forward to the day that developers take full advantage of modern day PC hardware.
I think that developers and publishers would find that more and more people would build high-end PC's if they new that they would be able to play incredible looking games on them.
Kind of like how people were willing to build a serious PC just to play Crysis.
Imagine if most PC games looked as good (or better than) Crysis. People would start selling t...
I wasn't talking about PC Gamer, I was talking about all of the ridiculous sites that always seem to pop up several days before a major game is set to be released.
I actually subscribe to PC Gamer, and I respect what they have to say about games more than any other mag out there.
I like when you see these no-name websites giving games ultra-high scores several days before the review embargo is lifted.
It's like "Fabio from Gamersyoucantrust, Italy's most trusted gaming webzine, has given Killzone 3 a 17/10, and reports that the game cured his mother's breast cancer while he was playing it".
It's so obvious that these are just shills that have been bought and paid for.
Very lame, guys.
I spent a good 50+ hours with the PC version.
Best $5.00 (Steam sale) I've ever spent on a game.
Once you start seeing (and playing) your favorite games on a high end PC it's very difficult to go back to playing them on consoles.
I speak from experience.
My PC hooked into my home theater setup absolutely crushes anything running on consoles, and could crush even harder if devs didn't have to "dumb down" games because of the PS3 and 360 (just have a look at the first Crysis for proof of that).
I look forward to the day t...
I've never understood why the first Portal got such rave reviews.
I'm not saying that people who love the game are "wrong", I just don't understand what makes people think it's such a great game.
I actually found it to be rather tedious, myself.
I play Angry Birds at night (on my PSP) when I lay down to go to sleep.
I play 10 or 15 minutes of Angry Birds and then 5 innings of "The Bigs 2" baseball.
I get real sleepy by then and drift off to sleep.
Cool story, huh?
A top 10 list without Peggle on it = automatic fail.
"When i throw down 60 bucks for a game i expect a smooth, crisp, consistent experience. Not a blurry, stuttering piece of tearing shit."
It sounds like you need to start gaming on a PC.
All my multiplats and PC exclusives are humming along at 1920x1080 and 60+fps.
When that no longer happens, I simply upgrade until it does.
No waiting around for the "next-gen" consoles.
