The PC vs Console arguement is old and nothing has changed about it.  Hardcord PC gaming is a small market unless your talking about casual games that you can find online or solitare.  Most people dont buy a PC with gaming in mind or else they would not buy the cheap PC on sale at their local electronics store because that machine was not built for any serious gaming.  Now a customer that buys a game console has one thing in mind... GAMING.  Its just that simple.  If consoles where becoming so obsolete then answer me this, why are so many traditionally PC developers starting to develop for consoles (mainly the Xbox360)?  Why even bother putting Far Cry, Crysis, or even Oblivion on a console if it is all about the power?  Why waste resources porting Command and Conquer to the 360... it is much better suited for a PC.  The answer... MONEY!  Thats right folks... money.  Unlike the PC, developing for a console only gets better with age.  Ask all the developers that are still making games for the PS2.

Anybody who thinks that is BS should go and look at ANY high profile game&#039;s forum and check the tech support. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Console games work, period. There&#039;s no need to check your system specs and upgrade if needed, it&#039;ll work on the system. That&#039;s not to say that console games don&#039;t have glitches or bugs, that&#039;s not what I mean at all. A PROPERLY developed console game will have a very small amount of bugs and glitches, whereas PC games on release tend to have a LOT. That is mostly due to the software house throwing it out before it&#039;s REALLY done and going with the \"We&#039;ll just patch it later\" attitude. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Case in point, just recently, America&#039;s Army 3. On release, it was UNPLAYABLE. It was fixed, I believe just today, with a patch. And try to say \"Hey, that&#039;s a free game, it doesn&#039;t count\". I&#039;d have to point out to you WHO paid for the development on it. Every taxpaying american paid for it. And it cost millions. So, free isn&#039;t exactly how I&#039;d label it. <br  /><br><br  /><br>There is also the argument about the integration of home entertainment systems and video games. Some people have their HDTVs hooked to their PC. Those people are in the minority of people I know, as most of them have their PC in a completely separate room. Consoles are made to be integrated into the home entertainment system and current gen consoles usually look pretty damn good on the TV as opposed to the computer monitor. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Ease of use is another factor. Console gamers are usually console gamers simply because they don&#039;t like the hassle of doing the PC gaming scene (system maintenance, virus scanning, game hacks for multiplayer games, etc etc.)You turn the console on, play and when done, turn it off. No maintenance req&#039;d. <br  /><br><br  /><br>As far as superiority, it doesn&#039;t matter. Everyone will have their own opinion, no matter what.

Its been consoles VS gaming PC&#039;s for years in the gaming industry.<br  /><br><br  /><br>PC&#039;s progress significantly faster in terms of keeping up with the latest graphics, this has always been the case, and you are right in that respect. I have been a PC gamer for nearly 15 years, but I have never seen a console gamer switch to PC just becuase his console is getting old. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Your argument is invalid, console gamers usually wait for the next console release, because the cost of buying a brand new powerful PC is usually way more than the next gen console costs, not to mention the fact that console gamers usually play different types of games, and couldnt care less as to what is coming out on PC.<br  /><br><br  /><br>Console game sales were slow recently, but in every article I&#039;ve read on the poor sales, its attributed to the fact that A. there is a recession going on, B. there were few, if any blockbuster titles released during that period.<br  /><br><br  /><br>You also dont mention that there is not a whole lot going on in PC gaming at the moment either, with most of the total PC game revenue being derived from online MMO titles like World of Warcraft and Warhammer Online.<br  /><br><br  /><br>As for this comment "When their performance drops off and PCs start kicking their butts all over the map." Well, I dont know if you actually play on any of the current gen consoles, but the majority of gaming PC&#039;s out there already kick 360 and PS3 butt when it comes to graphics. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Honestly, my 8800GT manages way better graphics than any console game I&#039;ve seen. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Seen any of those "graphical showcases" on consoles, like Metal Gear Solid 4 and Gears of War 2? Its not hard to see that the textures and overall quality on games like Crysis and Far Cry 2 already far surpass any of those games.<br  /><br><br  /><br>Console gamers dont seem to mind though, because they are more interested in the games themselves, and not just graphics, which is unfortunately a very "PC Gamer" way of looking at things.<br  /><br><br  /><br>You have my email address, please dont hesitate to contact me if you want to discuss this further, or if you want to ask some questions. I will be glad to address any misconceptions you have regarding the subject of the games industry in general.</div>\

Anybody who thinks that is BS should go and look at ANY high profile game&#039;s forum and check the tech support. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Console games work, period. There&#039;s no need to check your system specs and upgrade if needed, it&#039;ll work on the system. That&#039;s not to say that console games don&#039;t have glitches or bugs, that&#039;s not what I mean at all. A PROPERLY developed console game will have a very small amount of bugs and glitches, whereas PC games on release tend to have a LOT. That is mostly due to the software house throwing it out before it&#039;s REALLY done and going with the "We&#039;ll just patch it later" attitude. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Case in point, just recently, America&#039;s Army 3. On release, it was UNPLAYABLE. It was fixed, I believe just today, with a patch. And try to say "Hey, that&#039;s a free game, it doesn&#039;t count". I&#039;d have to point out to you WHO paid for the development on it. Every taxpaying american paid for it. And it cost millions. So, free isn&#039;t exactly how I&#039;d label it. <br  /><br><br  /><br>There is also the argument about the integration of home entertainment systems and video games. Some people have their HDTVs hooked to their PC. Those people are in the minority of people I know, as most of them have their PC in a completely separate room. Consoles are made to be integrated into the home entertainment system and current gen consoles usually look pretty damn good on the TV as opposed to the computer monitor. <br  /><br><br  /><br>Ease of use is another factor. Console gamers are usually console gamers simply because they don&#039;t like the hassle of doing the PC gaming scene (system maintenance, virus scanning, game hacks for multiplayer games, etc etc.)You turn the console on, play and when done, turn it off. No maintenance req&#039;d. <br  /><br><br  /><br>As far as superiority, it doesn&#039;t matter. Everyone will have their own opinion, no matter what. Mine is the economy is playing a HUGE part of the whole dropoff of console business. And this is coming from a person who lost his job, so yeah.. I&#039;m not upgrading my PC or buying a new console, it&#039;s just not in the budget.</div>\

The developers spent 8 months to make it possible for the players who want to play WWII Warfare. At the moment they could visit either <a href="http://ww2.playcomet.com" rel="nofollow">ww2.playcomet.com</a> or <a href="http://mobile.playcomet.com" rel="nofollow">mobile.playcomet.com</a> on their Iphone to play WWII Warfare. <br  /><br>"It is very convenient to play Modern WWII-Themed Brower game on my Iphone and I quite enjoy it." One of WWII Warfare fans said. <br  /><br>Meanwhile, they announced the latest game features: <br  /><br>1, Recruit a loyal and powerful commander <br  /><br>2, Scout and attack enemies <br  /><br>3, reinforce friends&#039; bases <br  /><br>4 Build an impregnable base and win a battle unquestionably <br  /><br>5,Play directly on Iphone <br  /><br>6, Analyse the battle report anytime. <br  /><br>WWII Warfare is a free browser-based strategy game set at the height of World War II. With the Axis against the Allies, both sides will engage in the battle. In WWII Warfare, players can build their own base and develop their infrastructure, such as military academy, medical center, depot and command center, etc. Meanwhile, players can also make their streamlined weaponry and equipment according to your own strategy. <br  /><br>Last week, Playcomet Team introduced the iPhone 3G game, its third-generation browser-based game supported by iPhone. The iPhone owners were able to visit <a href="http://ww2.playcomet.com" rel="nofollow">ww2.playcomet.com</a> and <a href="http://mobile.playcomet.com" rel="nofollow">mobile.playcomet.com</a> to play WWII Warfare directly. In the current Iphone-version browser game, the developers added a number of new and useful features. While the exterior and graphics of the new looks are quite different to that of HTTP browser WWII Warfare. <br  /><br>A larger number of gamers have already joined the game and they all have come to the same general conclusion: The NO. 1 Iphone-based Brower game is indeed cooler, and the improved user experience and interface are two welcome. <br  /><br>"More features will be available in the near future." The developers told us.<br  /></div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-25260930" class="dsq-comment-message">I am in agreement with MrWinston all the way.  The PC vs Console arguement is old and nothing has changed about it.  Hardcord PC gaming is a small market unless your talking about casual games that you can find online or solitare.  Most people dont buy a PC with gaming in mind or else they would not buy the cheap PC on sale at their local electronics store because that machine was not built for any serious gaming.  Now a customer that buys a game console has one thing in mind... GAMING.  Its just that simple.  If consoles where becoming so obsolete then answer me this, why are so many traditionally PC developers starting to develop for consoles (mainly the Xbox360)?  Why even bother putting Far Cry, Crysis, or even Oblivion on a console if it is all about the power?  Why waste resources porting Command and Conquer to the 360... it is much better suited for a PC.  The answer... MONEY!  Thats right folks... money.  Unlike the PC, developing for a console only gets better with age.  Ask all the developers that are still making games for the PS2.  Have fun finding new games that will work well with all the goodies it has built into it on your 8 year old PC that has not been upgraded since.</div>\
