Hello

I very rarely post here,,,but this got my interest..

Well i accept consoles are better(or equivalent) than mid range pc gaming...But when it comes to high end gaming ,consoles cant even touch high end pc gaming..

All of the people above who are saying that they played on pc and dint like it,i mean u no disrespect but u r just showing that u havent played on high end pcs(or maybe not even seen them),,,

Just for example, try playing Witcher 2(Enhanced edition),which is one of the best games(by looks,gameplay,graphics or otherwise)on the market,on both pc and xbox 360(which is better than ps3 according to me with lesser bugs in the game,but thats just me).When i am saying pc,it obviously mean high end and for xbox,well it should be connected to a good quality led with hdmi.and u ll see that the console's quality is awesome but it can no way match the quality of the pc.

When it comes to pc,it is better at everything.Graphics looks better on pc than the console,gameplay is faster and more challenging on pc. You can experiment this with any high end game,like crysis 2,Battlefield 3,nfs series or even the CoD series.Every time a high end pc comes on top.

Another example is Gears of War,which proves that there is a reason why there are different multiplayer servers for pcs and consoles.Gears of War was one of the few games which provided same servers for both pc and consoles.you can guess what happened later.Pc players started crushing console players.Even the best of the console players couldnt stand against even mediocre pc players.They started complaining and finally the game creators separated their servers.

This proves that gameplay on pc is much faster than consoles.A console controller simply can not stand the wrath of a mouse and keyboard combo.where it takes 2 seconds to turn around completely in an fps on a console,it takes less than half a second on pc with just a flick of the hand on mouse.Moreover on pc,there is a lot of modding(like in Skyrim or other rpg games),much like what developers do on xda for phones.So pc is "kinda" open platform for games.

On the plus points of consoles,well controls are better when you are playing a racing gaming or something like Mortal combat or tekken(was one of my favs :D ).Then there are several games which are exclusive to consoles,like God of war for ps3.Games which are launching on multiple platforms generally launch on console first.There are lesser bugs on consoles than on pcs.There is less cheating on a console(cheats,trainers,multiplayer deceptions,etc).There was another advantage of consoles of having a kinect(which is just a cool stuff) but now microsoft released a kinect for windows also,though there is very less supported stuff presently.And the biggest point is the cost effectiveness of consoles over pc.Generally people buy a console because they cant afford a high end pc.(please dont take it personally as i am not talking about someone specifically,,and fyi i myself have an xbox 360,a gaming pc and two gaming laptops).

So my point is that there are some advantages of having a console but if u want a core and pure gaming experience,well nothing beats a pc.

And again please dont be offended.Above is just my view.If u still think that a console is better then i am no one to challenge that.

Keep gaming. ;)

Regards.
