At this point, why stay with consoles? I get all the shitty DRM of PC games, but still have to pay higher prices for my games and pay for Xbox live. I can build a gaming rig for $700, and when all is said and done would probably break even when you consider the cost of gold. Plus, I can plug it in to my tv and use a wireless controller.
Amusingly enough, I was talking with two coworkers yesterday about gaming and PCs, and the one coworker asked the other, "Have your kids been asking for the new XBOX yet?" He responded, "No, they've been asking to build a PC. The games look a lot better."
I felt like there was a win in there for the PC Gaming Master Race.
Remember, MS told you there would be no fee, they just left out the part where they bricked the disc, lol.
I'm not sure if you're talking about loaning a disc to a friend or trading it into Gamestop, but Microsoft said
they wouldn't charge a fee when the game is traded in, but each publisher can set their own requirements.
and if sony is smart, they would totally call this out in their keynote and talk about how they AREN'T doing it and be condescending about it, as if it would be any different, and rip into MS.
I think it'd be better if Sony's keynote was before Microsoft's, but unfortunately, I think Microsoft's is at 10 AM PST and Sony's is at 6 PM PST.
what console has the highest GPU clock or more theoretical memory throughput.
I don't think they care about the numbers because they don't understand the numbers. However, if the PS4 ends up being 30-40% faster than the X1, people should be able to see the difference in the games.
