Musopticon? Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Heck, I'll just overclock or something. Fast/Ugly is alwys better than Moderately Fast/Ugly. And for the rest of the discussers, I agree with Llyr. Get a room or something. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today.

Hassat Hunter Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 (edited) AMD? Surprise you can play anything on that. " Interested in getting a console? " Or is PS3/X-Box 360/Wii even more difficult than AMD>Intel? " Obsidian better give Hades a free game or something when Hades reaches level 10. If they do that expect a flood of spammers trying to get to lvl 10. Think "Other Games" [/Off-topic] That the system specs. They look pretty low to me... Please take up any moderating issues via PM.

metadigital Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Agh, mine processor is only 1.8 GHz. Well, a gig of RAM should circumvent that lack quite efficiently. Hope my 6600 can manage the game on medium though. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Should be fine ... one of the E3 presentations mentioned that the minimum video spec was Shader Model 2, which is well within the 6600's remit.

metadigital Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 The point is that consoles are a better value and have longer use before you have to "upgrade" and the fact PC developers are always pushing (always always always) for higher and higher specs each game they make means the target audience keeps getting smaller and smaller <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just as some consumers look for better long-term value, some are happy to pay a premium for higher quality. ^_^ OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I buy an X-Box game, I'm virtually guaranteed (barring disk defect or hardware problem) that it will play in my X-Box. For PC games, however, I have to make sure that I have a compatible video card, enough RAM (and companies are often deceptive in how much RAM is needed), new or special video drivers, a fast enough processor, and may have to exit the game regularly in order to avoid memory leaks. These are all headaches avoided by consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metadigital Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 If the PC is in the upper, newer spec, then there it is negligible (i.e. < chance of console game not working) that the PC won't play any game.

Kaftan Barlast Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 a PC can be used both for playing and making games, thus the PC always wins.

I can buy a Radeon X1900XTX card NOW that will allow me to play at resolutions to make the not-yet-released Playstation 3 blanche with embarrassment. The point is that PC gaming is at a higher specification than console gaming: console gaming is better value, not better quality.

Play on consoles? In my 24 years of gaming, I've had two games not play on my various consoles: the first was due to a defective disk, the second was due to my PS2's DVD player being worn out (a year after I got it, too). That's a high rate of success, so "Unless they don't" is statistically insignificant. Edited May 17, 2006 by deganawida Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanschu Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 If you buy a high end system, I'm almost compelled to say that any game that isn't overwhelmingly buggy would have no problems being played (in terms of playability) on a computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
