Oh yeah? Too bad consoles are deadAnd meanwhile, I believe it was confirmed that the Playstation 4 has now reached 22.3 million consoles sold, as well as having sold 2 million units in the UK making it the fastest selling Sony console since the Playstation 2.

Oh yeah? Too bad consoles are dead
I'd love to see those make-believe benchmarks that show PC's in the same price range as the PS4/XBO running games at superior quality/superior framerate. I'm sorry, but this "theory" was already tested by Digital Trends and it's just false at this point in time.Oh yeah? Too bad consoles are dead
I double-checked them on that and they're right, it's genuinely hard to match or beat the performance of the PS4/XBO without passing the $500 mark, even when using discounts on Newegg."While the most extreme computers will remain more powerful than the next-gen consoles, gamers lacking a bottomless bank account may look at the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 with envy. The graphics fidelity generated by both is impressive for the price. A brand new, $400 or $500 computer can’t hope to keep up, and gaming rigs that are a few years old will also be behind the standard set by the newest gaming systems."

I suppose that's one way to look at it, but keep in mind that a basic "office tasks/browsing only" PC can be bought for sub-$200, really. All most people need is just a raggedy laptop with shit specs - it's a far cry from a "gaming PC".There is a line of logic that argues that as everybody needs a PC* that the $300 you spend on a basic internet and office stuff can be added onto the $500.
At least you have a medal, some are still running in the race. ;O;Xbox One outsells PS4 last month
We like to take our victories while they last here in the silver medal club
Oh you mean Steam selling games that won't work on modern OSs and giving 0 support for them? Shit like this is the reason GoG and co are in the market..Can Notch become any more smug? I really want to punch him in the mouth whenever I see him. Sure, because backwards compatibility on PC works so well, forget the thousands of games and applications that no longer work natively on contemporary desktops like 16-bit software, booter software or stuff that was synced to the CPU and as such is a turbo-mess on a modern desktop - all this has to be either emulated or booted on and older computer. Seriously, he made one game that didn't suck dick and now he's Internet Jesus - fuck you, Markus, you're a goddamn neckbeard.
At least non-working Steam purchases can be returned now, so no harm no foul. Though I do feel a little bad for people who got burned before and can't fix it now.Oh you mean Steam selling games that won't work on modern OSs and giving 0 support for them?
