It does not. At most it's refusing to artificially inflate the value of it, but it doesn't even do that.

For people who game primarily on PC, exclusives don't "increase" the value of the console, people just don't play the game. The idea of spending 400 bucks on a console so that you can play the 5 exclusives you are actually interested in isn't an appealing one. (as it's $140 per game.)

For the people who primarily game...

The Xbone has sold 10s of millions of units. There is 0 chance of any multiplat game not supporting it unless Sony or Nintendo are engaging in paid exclusivity BS. Also, MS having it's on PC storefront means it's cut of the profit for sales on either platform is basically the same, which means not putting it on PC only accomplishes 1 thing: decreased sales.

As such, there is 0 benefit to any consumer to keeping Xbone games off PC, and it would probably also bad fo...

Yeah, I don't believe you. I've seen your comments in other places, and think you're backpedaling because I posted proof.

You really don't.

For one, the Xbone X also has overhead, only 9 of the 12gb are available to developers to use iirc.

For 2, The total ram on the PC I listed is 11GB. 8 is System ram, 3 is video ram. It's only 1 gb short, and because you can overclock both the ram and the video card you can easily increase memory bandwidth enough to make up for that 1 lost gb. Or you could get an RX 480 with 4gb of ram for roughly the same price.

It's confusing because it's nothing like the original game, not because they actually don't understand the concepts.

Video games are art. Art isn't always about fun.

Many of my best experiences with games were not fun. Sitting there crying at the end of FF10 or The Last of US wasn't fun. Dark Souls making me want to put my foot through a TV isn't fun. .Spec Ops: the lines hardcore war drama about how hard it would be on real people to do the type of stuff that typically happens in games like COD isn't fun. It's also not intended to be.

Yeah, you don't get to use a Laptop for comparison. Laptop CPUs and GPUs are garbage for gaming. They basically have to be or they'll run into major heat problems in such a confined space (not to mention destroy their battery life.)

Saying your $1200 laptop can't do 1080p and using that as your comparison for PCs in general is like saying your $60,000 Bently cant do 200mph so neither can that $60,000 Corvette. Well obviously it can't, it's not really su...

AMD and Nvidia market the 1060 and 480/580 as 1080p cards. That's what they're for. With very few exceptions, they will do 1080p at 60FPS with either high or ultra settings (or a combination of high and ultra settings)

YEAH! Why should we let the dirty PC players woh are also using the MS platform play games? Fuck them. Only we should have games. Fuck pro consumer behavior that gives customers choice, even if we aren't helping our primary competitors in the process.

It will manage what the Xbone X can manage. The g4560 is usually capable of maxing out the 1060, and the 1060 is about the same in terms of power as the Xbone X, so it should be able to replicate or surpass the Xbone X performance/visual quality in everything.

1: Don't need one. Basically everything, both games and movies, on PC is digital. You can like or dislike that as a feature, but it's true anyways. Also, if you haven't noticed, when y...

522 USD.

If you don't think a 1060 can do 4k/30, Digital Foundry has a series called 4k on a budget that is them doing 4k/30 on a 970, which is basically the same in terms of performance.

No, no you wouldn't. People are big on using TFLOPS as a buzzword without actually knowing what it means right? The build they list used a RX 580 which has... 6.2. About the same as the Xbone. Course they could save ~40 dollars with a 1060 or a good 70 if they picked up a used 970, which have similar performance.

3196d ago 13 agree18 disagreeView comment

No, I didn't. Even if you want to add a blue ray player you don't need, it's only going to add 50 dollars to the price, which means puts the total at 570 usd, *well* below the thousand you implied couldn't be done.

3196d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Don't need one.
1: almost all PC games are digital only.
2: You can buy digital copies of movies to download
3: Physical copies of movies usually come with a download code for the movie.

Besides, you *really* don't wanna get into a feature set competition with PCs. There is no consumer electronic on the planet that will win that competition.

You mean is PC playes don't put up with T2s restrictive bullshit they'll take their candy and leave like a fucking 3 year old?

If that's what they're gonna do, fuck them. I'm not buying whatever they release now anyways, wether it releases on PC or not.

Done. If you count XBL, it's ~ 30 USD cheaper.
