Who is this nobody who knows literally nothing about what he's talking about?

he means your mom's overdue being on my dick
tell that bitch to move it

It's total nonsense. The only reason consoles deliver more is because the companies spend more time on getting the console version right, because it's a bigger market. Yeah when you get some shitty B team to port your game to PC in one week it wont perform as well as the console version you worked on for 4 years.

Then how come console games always look shit compared to pc games? Even PC ports look better.

I think the fact PC hardware is also used for other programs that used to tie up resources confused him.

Consoles don't have to run a shitty OS that isn't optimized for gaming.

Yeah, but for the same given paper spec, a console will cost twice as much as a PC, and a mobile phone will cost twice as much as a console.

How was Carmack actually allowed to spout such nonsense?

>Yeah, but for the same given paper spec, a console will cost twice as much as a PC (used parts), and a (5 year old) mobile phone will cost twice as much as a console.

In the old days driver and OS overhead were huge.

literally true and why shit like mantle/vulkan is a thing

E-celeb threads arent allowed on Sup Forums, go back to re.ddit

People always seem to overlook the "same given paper spec" part.
Of course that if you had a pc with components as shit as the current console hardware, games made for those consoles wouldn't be playable. But even the average consumer pc has been more powerful than that since at least 2013.

>intel/nvidia adds more power/ram
>lel consoles

>amd adds more cores
>pooindaloo

>mobile part
Who talks like this? How is that in any way the correct usage of "part"?

PCFAGS BTFO

It's based on if devs actually optimized their games.

Twitter screencap threads need to be a bannable offense. I don't know whats worse the dumb shit people post on twitter or the fact that most of Sup Forums browses twitter all day.

what a retard

He's right because of the architecture of consoles are literally geared towards gaming.

The problem is consoles usually have such shit parts to keep their base cost down.

That device specifically made for single purpose (or narrow range of similar purposes) outperforms a general usage device with same specs for that single purpose it was made.

>over 3 years of this

Sup Forums has the most dedicated pasta posters

>y-you can't judge game-power just by specs and numbers and facts. Consoles may SEEM inferior but they have a special secret hidden powers that actually make them better!

>Sup Forums - Twitter screencaps

>PC where this actually applies $1000
>Console $400
>i'm a retard that doesn't know shit about HW architecture but since the specs mention NVIDIA and Intel it must be completely 100% same as PC
This is what happened when first Xbox appeared.
Retards even claimed PC will run natively Xbox games within a week or two because it's just normal PC.
Fast forward to 2017, not even one properly working emulator exists.
Common excuse is that Xbox has no games worth emulating.

Conglaturations, your post is the dumbest

you'd think shitposting would get old but they do it for free

I love it that Sup Forums is too stupid to understand this

Maybe thats what be meant

He talks about the cinematic mode.

The technic in the division or the first farcry are actually the nature of PC gaming. Detailed in the small things and realistic.

What does any of that have to do with performance? The lack of xbox emulation isn't because no modern pc part can deliver the performance Microsoft was able to get from that old Pentium 3.
It's because it's fairly difficult to reverse engineer the hardware and software when the relevant documentation isn't freely available.

Exactly what is written.
Consoles will mainly run the game, PC has tons of shits in the background.
Doesn't change de fact that consoles are equal to weak PC on release.

Hmmm....

Are you comparing Microsoft game division or the whole Microsoft company?

ITT people who know more about programming than John Carmack.

I wonder if he's doing the same with Sony

And Nintendo

And xbox emulation isn't being driven by something on the level of Nintenbro autism.

It's pretty obvious they're comparing the entire companies. Sony is hemorrhaging money and every division is going down in flames, except their gaming one. Meanwhile Microsoft is the exact opposite and they're continuing to rake in the dough everywhere else, a portion of which is thrown into the endless dumpster fire that is the Xbox division.

Ninteno continues to Nintendo, I guess.

But I thought Xbox was considered a console.

>He's right because of the architecture of consoles are literally geared towards gaming.

They were up til 7th gen. Not so sure about 8th gen. PS4 is spending half its RAM recording video footage and keeping background applications open. And an octocore CPU was a dubious choice when 90% of game developers still put 90% of the load on a single thread.

And then Ubisoft, EA, Activision and others release fucking garbage with terrible performance on all platforms.

Who fucking cares really.

This is a 4 hour old thread stop replying

Shame that numerous i3/750ti benchmarks in comparison to PS4 prove it wrong.

Why?

It's night over the US, shitposters are sleeping, global internet activity is slowing down.

Deal with it or go to bed.

translation: No need to Optimize my game for PC
Need to optimize my game for Console
Dont even have to bother with mobile

>Carmack reduced from video game Sainthood to another has-been twitter important person with many opinions.

>old days
>mobile game ports

That device designed to do one thing is better at it than device to do more things.

It means he's getting old and senile.

literally who

Its a good thing that even mid tier pcs are 10X better than even the scorpio then.
Thanks for the insight doom man

>It's total nonsense. The only reason consoles deliver more is because the companies spend more time on getting the console version right, because it's a bigger market.

You're also ignoring the fact that consoles only have one set of hardware (or used to anyway) which makes optimization much more efficient.

What Carmack saying is actually completely true. You can't really compare consoles/PC/mobile on a spec level, because you can squeeze more out of a console than a PC, and more out of a PC than a phone; because heat and battery and shiet.

some facebook employee

Why is revenue not the same thing as profit

>Carmack is a manlet
Fucking dropped.

FAGGOT

Like all people who contribute to the world

profit = revenue - expenses

Obviously it's wrong seeing how it's a made up rule supposed to apply to every console. We have seen omptimized high spec games that run on toasters after all and shitty third rate weeb games that struggle with the best PC hardware.
