PC gaming is all you need

With an awful E3 show by Sony, all future Xbox titles also coming to the PC, multiplats best experienced on PC, whole genres that are only on PC, can we agree that a midrange PC is all
you need as a core gamer?

If I only had a PC, I doubt I'd play games. Warhammer Total War was a big disappointment and I don't recall buying a game between that and Civ 5. All I could have bought were the odd 5 or 6 multiplats I got for my PS4 instead.

Missing out on all of 2017's Switch exclusives :(

Does your CPU have "4k" written on it though? lmao pkeks loses again

Pc, PS4, Switch and 3DS covers all bases.

Where is Rising Storm 2, Call to Arms and Men of War: Assault Squad 2? Where is Day of Infamy?

>including CS Goy there

May as well put RO2/RS1 there as well then.

Which are?

>RS2
wanted to add but forgot
>call to arms
6/10
>men of war
preddy good
>day of infamy
Insurgeny WW2 edition

I'm prolly gonna add RS2 and DoI tho

\What a great list!

I dunno user. I built a PC earlier this year and if it was the only platform I owned, I wouldn't have been able to play BotW at launch, Yakuza 0, Nioh, Digimon World, Persona 5 and Gravity Rush 2. I'm glad the PS4 finally got some exclusives because it had been trash until the start of this year. NieR Automata was broken at launch on PC for a few days too and even now, it barely runs any better than the PS4 Pro version. I don't see the point of limiting your options, especially if you're so engrossed into your hobby that you spend a large quantity of your daily time on browsing imageboards dedicated just for your obsession with glorified toys.

Splatoon 2, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Mario Odyssey, Rabbids Kingdom Battle, gonna be a based red of the year for PC + Switch owners.

Switch + PC is probably a good combo

>all you need if you care about western games
ftfy

I feel like I'd eventually get a switch solely because it's got some portability, but on the PS4 Nioh and Bloodborne are still the only games I'd definitely get if I bought one, and buying a console for two games seems like a waste.

My PC died a month ago. Bought a PS4 Pro and a 4K TV.

Shit's fantastic and comfy as fuck.

PS4 releases may have shit frames per second, but they're more optimized than Windows releases. You always gotta fuck around with PC games to make shit work right. PS4 games also look smooth as fuck regardless. No clue why.

I'm not saying computers are shit, though. I just prefer PlayStation.

>MoW:AS2
>just preddy gud

Don't you mean GOAT?

And to be fair, Call to Arms isn't finished yet, but I like the way it's shaping up so far, apart from the cluttered UI and camera.

>DoI is just Insurgency WW2

Is there a problem with this?

Also don't forget about Gates of Hell, Hell Let Loose, Post Scriptum and Enlisted.

Playstation 4 is all you really need besides pc. Even then Sony is putting more games on pc which is good. Recently got PSnow works way better than I figured it would

Stop pushing this fucking moronic "Nintendo goes great with PC meme" you spastic shit.

I'd rather buy both an XboneX and a PS4 Pro to go along with my PC than a useless piece of trash like the Switch.

Splatoon and xeno look like the only games worth it. So 2 games in 6 months?

I own an Xbox. I haven't used it months. The only time I'll use it again is when the new dragon ball Z game comes out. Xbone is useless unless I feel like playing Halo3

Thank god western games are the only games that matter anymore.

And I say this as someone with a large amount of Jap games in my top 10. Japan stopped making good games around a decade ago. Now it's either weeb shovelwear or just western gaming lite. Since they are trying so hard to copy the west anyways.

sure if you wanna move the goalposts to your personal tastes.

There's a first party AAA title coming every month from now until December right now, with skyrim, Rocket League, Fifa and other titles all coming to handheld for the first time too. I'll be buying at least 10 more Switch games before the year is up, as well as playing stuff on my PC. I'm sure a LOT of switch owners are the same.

I don't own an Xbone at all. I'd still rather buy one than a Switch though. Because I could see myself playing the Rare or the Master Chief collection. I cannot see myself ever being interested in BotW which is just empty open world shit, Mario Kart which is just a kiddy racing port, or Arms which is literally just a rebraned Wii sports boxing minigame which was shit. That's it, that's the Switches entire library. Pure garbage.

The Boner X is also getting OG Xbox emulation support soon and I have a shit ton of OG Xbox games I'd love to emulate so I'd definitely rather a Boner X.

>yfw emulating SSX Tricky in 4k on the Boner X soon

I have all consoles. Let me justify owning each of them
>switch
Botw and Mario kart for now, Mario odyssey later this year. The portability means I can easily take it to friends or family and have fun playing with them. Botw was one of the best games I've played in years and a breath of fresh air.
>xbone s
The cheapest 4k blu ray player out there ($185 on eBay) and has Mcc and rare replay, some of the best old game exclusives out there. Got MCC for $10 on cdkeys and rare replay for free this e3; get to trade in my disc now.
>ps4 pro
Having a 4ktv there are next to no games outside of the Sony ecosystem that support hdr. I know that the last of us and uncharted are movie games, but in hdr they're fucking beautiful movie games. The uncharted trilogy, God of War 3 hd, and bloodborne are also all fun as fuck to play through

Pc for 90% of all games ever made though

Buy an Xbox on eBay. Get a solid '00s TV.

Wooow. So hard.

How is the God of War 3 HD version? Is it worth getting? What changed between it and the original?

It's now 1080p and a solid 60fps. I can't say for sure if any assets were made better but it looks fucking great

I already have two OG Xbox's in my room right now as I type. One modded and one unmodded, and I have an old CRT.

Playing them is not the issue, I also have a shelf full of rare OG Xbox games. What I want to do is emulating and play them in a higher res and framerate than they play on the console. I can play SSX Tricky again right this second if I wanted. But it will be at 480p again. I would unironically pay to buy a Boner X just to play SSX Tricky in 4k.

Since there is no OG Xbox emulator on PC in sight, I am not gonna pass up the Boner X. I've been wanting an OG Xbox emulator for fucking years.

>indie and early access games

The only reason I have a PC is so I can play all the games I would have played on console at a higher framerate, higher resolution, and with better graphics.

At one point I had over 200 people added on Steam through Sup Forums and /vg/ and almost none of them played the PC exclusives everyone boasts about. Just weebshit, AAA titles, or nothing at all for months on end.

That list in general is terrible.

Fair enough. Just make sure you wait till that shit actually drops. That feature might never come to fruition.

>from Sup Forums

There's your problem. Go play the games you want to play and friend other people who also play those games. I have a whole bunch of Red Orchestra and Rising Storm fans on my steam friends list and they all have multiple thousands of hours in the games each.

You could be playing SSX Tricky's PS2 version on PC at 4k RIGHT NOW, user.

updated it for ya, need more good shooters in this world

I agree user, my PS4 has been collecting dust for over a year and the switch was worth it for BotW and MK8 alone. Splatoon 2, Odyssey, XCOM 3 and Xenoblade 2 look great, might also pick up skyrim for the novelty of playing it on a handheld.

God tier upcoming PC games:

- Metro Exodus
- Mordhau
- Camelot Unchained
- Ashes of Creation
- Wild West Online
- Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord
- Cyberpunk 2077
- La-Mulana 2
- Ghost Song
- Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
- Ace Combat 7
- Code Vein
- Monster Hunter World
- Dragon Ball Fighter Z
- From Software Games (3 games)
- Star Citizen
- GreedFall
- Final Fantasy 7 Remake
- Blasphemous
- Agony
- Scorn

The PS2 version has inferior lighting and graphics than the OG Xbox version. For the large majority of 6th gen console exclusive multiplat games, the OG Xbox version was always the best looking.

The only advantage of the PS2 version was it had some exclusive trick animations to do, since it didn't have the advanced lighting and reflections of the Xbox version.

Thank you lad, I apprciate it. More people at least need to try out Men of War: AS2. With the new Skirmish mode they added for AS2 it becomes a lot more easily accesible too for just setting up random battles and fucking around, instead of either just doing campaign missions like the other MoW games, or spending (good fun) time in the editor setting up battles yourself.

I wish I had better webm making skills, I can't make one more than a few seconds long without the filesize or quality going to shit.

What's wrong with the list? I'm looking forward to most of those and the ones that are released I've put dozens of hours into.

BTW you put RS2 on there twice by accident and it's covering up M&B Bannerlord.

Why does putting things in to image grids like this make me want to do them more?

Gonna post some more webm's I made a while back about the Star Wars overhaul mod for MoW:AS2. The mods still in beta though.

welp

what are you using for webms? xmedia is breddy good

I already have a smartphone to browse internet therefore the only advantage of pc is gone.
I don't need shovel ware that you listed.
PS4 is all I need.

Yeah XMedia Recode but I must be doing it wrong. Reducing bitrate is the only thing that significantly lowers filesize, but also fucks the quality. It's so hard to get things under 3mb without the whole thing looking like a blurry mess, like the beginning of this webm I made.

There is obviously something I am doing wrong since I see lengthy high quality webms all the time.

>Cyberpunk 2077

A game we don't know anything about, swtiched devs, and will probably won't come out for 5 moe years.

Mario Odyssey looks like GOTY potential though, and Rabbids game is surprisingly pretty well done.

>Switched devs

Is CD Projeckt Red not making it anymore?

>AAA sholveware and the only interesting stuff can be run be a toaster

It is almost finished, trust me, we will see it within a year or two.

>AAA shovelware
what does this mean?

>can we agree that a midrange PC is all
you need
Pic related is all you need.

barely any of that is shovelware you idiot

Not him but that's exactly how I'd describe every ubisoft game and shit like days gone and sea of thieves

>steam is a locked down drm platform
>microsoft store is a locked down drm platform
>nvidia geforce experience requires accounts
>amd drivers are still shit

Now more than ever I'm considering ditching my PC and getting a console and a cheap laptop. This is the worst it has ever been for PC gaming and at least my electric bill would be smaller with a console.

Sea or Thieves looked like an interesting concept though, it's just the shooting and combat that looks shit.

And Days Gone, while I hope it isn't just an open world TLOU, could be good since it's the first game I've seen where zombies actually look like a threat. In shit like L4D and every other zombie game that came out at the height of the fad, they just chuck a few zombies at you but they never overwhelmed you aside from in Dead Rising. This game is just shitting a constant stream at you. It might be one of the few games to do this overdone genre right and make Zombies an actual threat.

Who cares about geforce experience, what does it even do?

Also you are forgetting GoG Galaxy.

Hmm good point, I agree on Days Gone as it looks like another generic third person shooter, but what is shovelware about SoT? We don't really have many pirate games.

Why do I need a pc gaming machine if my ps4 and ps3 runs multiplats fine tho. I've never had a problem playing games are 30fps,45fps or unlocked frame rate. I don't give a shit about those rts games op. You pc gamers need to stop trying to recruiting console gamers to justify spending +$2000 just play videogames.

>fine
It's not fine though. Most multiplats run and look like shit. The only decently performing games on any console are first party.

Ah how could I forget GoG, the chance to buy cracked versions of games I already own on disc or a meagre selection of new titles that weren't popular enough to make it to steam.
Truly the savior of PC gaming

>uncapped framerate

only okay if consistently above 60 on a 144 hz monitor, otherwise it's eyecancer

They don't run like shit. Wolfenstein tno, batman arkham knight, watch dogs 2, doom and shadow or mordor all ran fine on my ps4 and I had no problem playing them. You guys are just obsessed with performance and can't even turn off fraps when playing a game.

>Div OS2
>Steel Division
>Tarkov
>Factorio
>TW:W2
>Squad
>Wargame
>Mordhau
>Cold Waters
>Bannerlord
>literally all better than any console exclusive

How can one platform win so much?

>fraps

by putting gameplay and mechanical depth first, the movie game meme is not a meme

>Splatoon 2, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Mario Odyssey, Rabbids Kingdom Battle,
>talking about shit like Factorio, Men of War, and Wargame
>Nintendie comes in screaming "B-BUT YOU'RE MISSING BINGBINGWAHOO 352"

Do you honestly believe I want to play those games?

>Arma 3
>Squad
>Battlefield 4
>Siege
and soon to be released, Quake Champions
it feels good.

>I had over 200 people added on Steam through Sup Forums and /vg/

>The US just allowed corporations to request personal data from ISPs? That's it, I'm tired of having my freedom trampled, time to move to North Korea!

Master plan you got there, champ.

Don't forget Dominions 4 and Space Station 13.

>too obscure/muh graffix

No.

AND THAT IS DIFFERENT ON CONSOLE HOW??????????? LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

"LOOK GUYS WE HAVE BALD SPACE MARINES THAT SHOOT ZOMBIE BEARS LMAO" - THE STATE OF CONSOLE GAMING IN 2017

>all those indie shit and vaporware that is not coming out
>still posting this for years

PC is joke OP. Stop shilling dead system.

>implying most jap games are not coming to Steam as well
RE 7, Tekken 7, Danganronpa, One Piece, Dragon Quest....just a small sample.

>>literally all better than any console exclusive

You are joking right? Even medicore console games are better than this shit.

They don't. Also PC don't even get japanese exclusives.

Name one better console exclusive.

I'm just humouring you, I know you'll name some shitty teaspoon shallow AAA movie.

Uncharted 4, Persona 5, Bloodborne, Zelda BOTW. All have better scores than shit you posted.

I will add in one thing:

PC, GPD Win (handheld PC), 3DS, PS4, Switch covers pretty much everything.

PC for multiplats and high-end games and emulation, GPD Win for indie, light emulation, and game streaming from main PC, 3DS for 3DS games, and Switch for Switch games (and Wii U ports it will eventually get). PS4 for its exclusives (since the Bone has none anymore really).

Vita is kind of being usurped by PC since all of its exclusives have been creeping over to it over time. (And likely the Switch too)

Thanks for the laugh user.

>m-muh scores

Thanks for the ulterior laugh.

>might also pick up skyrim for the novelty of playing it on a handheld.
No PCfag would say this, something's fishy here

PC and Nintendo is so great. Got everything covered that I would want. It's pretty crazy how many console games are coming to PC now. It's pretty much a given now that if it's a multiplat, you can play it on PC.

bloodborne is the only good thing on your list

>reviews of critics and gamers don't count
>only opinion of one asshurt PC loser

This really activate my almonds. Don't forget to sign that petition for my games.

>It's pretty crazy how many console games are coming to PC now

Really? PC don't even got half games released for PS4 this year.

there are no good games on your list.

>Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord
It's insane how fucking amazing this game will be and hardly anyone around here gives a fuck. If people would just step out of their comfort zone for one second they'd find some really great stuff on PC. Oh well, still gonna be a great year for PC.

>It's insane how fucking amazing this game will be

How can you know if it's not even released? Why you guys posting same games you can't play every year?

>Really? PC don't even got half games released for PS4 this year.
Huh. I was talking about multiplats. Which multiplats that are considered worth playing on PS4 but not PC? Genuinely curious.

Because you're a retard. There's a shit load of gameplay, development logs, and thousands of hours in the previous game to know that the formula works

>multiplats
Why should I play multiplats only?
>Which multiplats that are considered worth playing on PS4 but not PC? Genuinely curious.
Persona 5, Yakuza 0, RDR, TLOU, God of War 3, Kingdom Hearts 3, Red Dead Redemption 2.

>you are retard because don't shill game that is not even released

user, just look at mirror from time to time. I guess corporations loves autists like you though.

Fighting games mostly.

But only because on PC people tend to cheat a bit more, and less people play online.

(I usually grab the PS4 version on launch and then the PC version later when it's dirt cheap for archiving/casual use now and then)

Did you play Mound and Blade Warband? If you did, it's pretty evident the developers care about the game and have taken the great parts of this one and are bringing it to the second one. There are plenty of gameplay vids to check out that show this.

>it's great because of vids

Jesus Christ, no wonder so many retards bought No Man's Sky at release.

>With an awful E3 show by Sony
Sony has so many consoles in so many loving rooms and dorm halls at this point that they can easily afford a subpar E3 conference. Simply based on word of mouth, Sony will continue to have strong sales.
>all future Xbox titles also coming to the PC
The console population doesn't care about that. Nobody that is in the market for an X1 or PS4 is going to not buy them suddenly hecause of "also on PC/W10". Normies don't care about AAA gaming on PC. If they care about PC gaming at all, it's shit like league of legends or hearthstone. Furthermore, consoles don't sell because of exclusives. It's all multiplats now. So the X1 aharing with the abysmal windows 10 store doesn't hurt it.
>multiplats best experienced on PC, whole genres that are only on PC, can we agree that a midrange PC is all you need as a core gamer?
Midrange PCs have a terrible life expectancy. It will only be a matter of time before the driver updates require new hardware, and then you're just out another several hundred.

So no, OP, we can't agree. You were out of touch on all points.

If E3 for Sony was awful. I wonder what can we say about PC. Only thing I've heard about PC on E3 was that it's highest rated game coming to PS4 now.

I'm a different guy completely to the guy you are talking to.

-You go to a restaurant and order a steak
-It's the best steak you have ever eaten in your entire life
-They announce they are going to offer a new menu item that involves the same steak but with new sides
>you: "UMM EXCUSE ME SIR WHY ARE YOU EXCITED FOR THE NEW MENU ITEM???? YOU HAVE NOTHING TO GO ON. YOU ARE JUST BEING A FUCKING SHILL YOU STUPID FAGGOT IDIOT. LOOK IN THE MIRROR!!!!!!!!! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!!!!!!!!! YOU HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT TO COME OUT BECAUSE IT'S NOT EVEN RELEASED YET SO YOU DON'T KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

you're dumb.

As far as the AAA industry goes, the two markets simply don't compete. Consoles are a normie investment. Normies have zero interest in playing COD, fifa, GTA, or Destiny 2 on PC

This

>it's best steak I know even though I haven't eaten it

Your analogies are dumb like you overall.

Best selling PC games are games for normies. Argument discarded.
