    I assume most of you have your PCs connected to your living room tv's with HDMI?


    What's so special about a wireless controller?

    No

    No way lmao

    as in Sony's PS4 controller? I was pretty sure you can use the actual PS4 controller on PC. I use it on my macbook to play games on OpenEmu

    also a concern of mine when going to PC, I spent 10 minutes on windows 10 and its atrocious

    No way lmao
    another reason ive steered away from PC. I already work 6 inches away from a monitor 8-12 hours a day, I'm not going to do the same at home. I used to like it as a teen playing PC games all day and night, I'd much rather game on a big screen and my surround sound nowadays

    minus 5 points for PC gaming

    I can see playing online FPS's on a PC + monitor with the mouse precision, especially since I played the shit out of CS for years. But sitting at a computer desk a foot in front of a small monitor with shitty speakers or headphones playing offline RPGs (which I mostly play), sports games, or almost any other genre is kind of lame as fuck, I would gladly take a frame rate hit to avoid it. There's more factors into a gaming experience than frame rate and graphics. And if $50 yearly potato tax is a lot for some people I would highly recommend a job, I spend that on food every 2 days.
    I guess nothing would prevent me from building a PC and still hooking it up to my main TV though, that's the only way I'd ever bother. I already hook my macbook up that way to play PS1 games

    You can hook up a PC to both your tv and a monitor. You don't need to choose. Just get two cables.

    The problem with the current generation of consoles is that they're essentially trying to turn consoles in to un-upgradable low end computers. Sony just said that it was PC and not Xbox that "inspired them" to get this latest console out, while they turn around and don't implement modding leaving the most modded games - Bethesda games - as the clear inferior version on any platform. So who is their target audience? They're not targeting the plug and play crowd with their new consoles every 2-3 years, they're not swaying people to stat with Sony over building a PC because they're not pro-modding - which doesn't stop people from going to Xbox - and there's a new console 2-3 years later and you could've invested the same money and blew it out of the water. They rushed this machine to beat out Xbox, no matter what bullshit they say.

    Microsoft has said the future is PC gaming and they basically want the Xbox whatever it is to live on and be upgradeable I guess, that will remain to be seen but that in itself is a clear statement of Microsoft's intention, throw in the F2P Forza game and possible Halo on PC game. Sooooo where's the incentive to get either? They're not sticking to what got them to where they are and Nintendo stuck too close to their nice by naming their console the most ridiculous name ever.

    To be fair to the people upset at no mans sky they were fed the lies from the developer directly so while the game didn't meet expectation the expectation existed because the developer said it was this way and that way. But consoles in general bring down game quality and multi platform are always downgraded for the highly inferior Xbox. That's why modding is so important with Bethesda games because they fix all the shit.

    Recent TV's and computer monitors use the UHD-1 standard (3840 x 2160 pixels) or 2160p if you want to call it that.

    Should I not be impressed by tvs now supporting a higher pixel density?
    This isn't the film industry lol it's a buzz word relative to gaming because it's being used as a marketing tool to sell an underpowered machine that can't do what people think it can do. Be impressed by what you want you won't be playing any game 4K on a PS4 whatever it's called, you won't even be able to do 1080p 60fps.
