Crytek Faced Xbox One ESRAM Issues, Console Hardware Considerably Less Powerful Than High-End PCs

During this year’s SIGGRAPH, Crytek’s Nicolas Schulz and Theodor Mader finally admitted how much more powerful high-end PCs were compared to both current-gen consoles at launch. Obviously this isn’t surprising at all, but it’s at least good to see developers admitting what we already knew.

As Crytek’s Rendering Engineers revealed, when both Xbox One and PS4 were already dated the moment they came out.

Console hardware was considerably less powerful than high-end PCs at launch” reads Crytek’s SIGGRAPH 2014 presentation.

Crytek’s engineers claimed that Crysis 3 at Ultra settings is already an impressive looking game, and that adding just more (effects, higher resolution, etc.) is not an option on weaker hardware, which basically explains why Ryse was running at 900p with 30fps on Xbox One.

Furthermore, Crytek said that MSAA was not an option on Xbox One with deferred lighting as there was a massive bandwidth increase. Also, the company run into issues with ESRAM size, something that prevented it from using MSAA (especially since 2X MSAA did not provide great IQ).

Last but not least, Crytek’s engineers revealed that SSAA was used in pre-recorded cut-scenes in Ryse, and that this demanding AA technique will be available in the PC version of Ryse.

[UPDATE]

Crytek has shared a number of videos from its SIGGRAPH 2014 presentation that can be viewed below.

  1. I thought Ryse was outstanding on the Xbone, but i really can’t wait to be blown away how it will run on my rig! I for one think it is good for the consoles to be more popular and less powerful. Why? In my mind, it makes developers learn new ways of doing thing to be more efficient without sacrificing quality. This doesn’t always work, mind you lol, butI think it helps keep them honest.

  2. “Console Hardware Considerably Less Powerful Than High-End PCs”

    From the files of “The completely obvious”

    1. I guess PC gamers still need these articles to remind them why it’s okay to miss all those awesome AAA console exclusives.

      1. Like The Last Of Us: Silky Smooth 46FPS edition, Infamous (Lack of Draw Distance) and DriveDud?

        Suuuuuuuuuure.

        1. Another kid who thinks a game’s merits are only based on it’s framerate and resolution. How did you play games in the 90’s? Oh wait, you didn’t, you were too busy watching seseme street.

          1. I used to play Quake MTF on 320 x 320 resolution to get the highest ping. Real Gamers don’t care about graphics. I have Master of Orion 2 on my desktop right now. Real Gamers play everything. I have 3 consoles hooked up to my TV, along with my PC. Real Gamers don’t discriminate.

          2. >I used to play Quake MTF on 320 x 320 resolution to get the highest ping.

            Lolwut? Highest ping? There wasn’t even 320×320 resolution, you mean 320×240. And anyway resolution has absolutely nothing to do with ping.

          3. I have all the consoles ( xbox 360, and xb1 in the room with my pc and three monitors, ill take a pic if you want? ) and my ps4 in my bed room with 42″ 1080p TV. we all got tech . just some of us know that the pc is Superior platform

          4. Did you also take the paint off your car to get “higher gas consumption?”
            High ping is a BAD THING, numbskull; everyone who isn’t a blatant faker knows that.

          5. The difference is that pc gamers can build for $400-$500, get much cheaper games, and not have to pay a monthly service to get such high end graphics. In the 90s, you had no such choice to spend less money to get better performance.

          6. You’re missing the point, a PC can’t play a game better than a console when the game is ONLY released on consoles.

            This logic is the folly of the “PC master race” gamer.

          7. Consoles have a few dozen exclusives, while PC has thousands. Not to mention entirely exclusive genres like MOBAs, RtSs, and MMOs. Plus PCs can also use emulators to play games from older consoles, and can use any controller from any modern console to play games. Is it really worth paying more for a few exclusives, limited genres, limited controllers, and worse performance via a consol when you can pay less for a PC to get thousands of games, use any controller, get every genre, have great performance, and be productive with non-gaming things? To me, the answer is no.

          8. *applause*
            Wow, you’ve certainly drunk your own kool-aid, hey?
            Let me quickly tear that apart:

            “Consoles have a few dozen exclusives”
            Ever hear of Nintendo? Sony alone has dozens of studios making games for it’s console. Not to mention consoles of the past, look at PS2, look at N64, dozens of exclusives right?

            “Not to mention entirely exclusive genres like MOBAs, RtSs, and MMOs.”
            So MOBAs you mean, the other two are available on console or coming shortly. Furthermore, you either like DOTA games or you don’t, a lot of people don’t.

            “use emulators to play games from older consoles”
            Promoting piracy to win an argument? That is the DSOgaming way of doing things, I suppose.

            “limited controllers” When your gamepad is ranked the best on the market and has been refined over 4 generations, I wouldn’t prefer to play with anything else. Oh, are you referring to the Keyboard? An input device built for text entry and re-purposed for gaming? Yeah, that’s certainly the best controller….

            “pay less for a PC to get thousands of games” No one on the internet could build a PC with the hardware of the PS4 for under $399. This topic has been discussed to death.

            “and be productive with non-gaming things”
            What part of EVERYONE HAS A PC isn’t clear? We all have a computer for productivity, and if you want to split that machine between business and pleasure, that’s fine. I prefer a dedicated gaming machine in addition to my Core i7 PC.

            ~fin~

          9. When a product/company has to force a monopoly to stay relevant, you can pretty much say for certain that the product/company is utter shit.

          10. Okay, I see NO problem playing Dark Cloud 2 on a PS2 emulator. Go find a patch of green grass else where ya sheep, your way in over your head buddy….

          11. “Promoting piracy to win an argument?”

            using a pc you can also shop online and buy the game legally and then download and ISO as well (legal in my country as long as you on the original).

            Also i forgot that consoles NEVER have been hacked to allow

            http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homebrew_(video_games)

            And MMO on already outdated tech GL.

          12. “Ever hear of Nintendo?”

            Actually many members of the PCMR agree that Nintendo is the only console brand worth owning. They have many quality titles and have never tried to convince us that lower performance and quality somehow delivers a better experience.

            “So MOBAs you mean, the other two are available on console or coming shortly.”

            A handful of MMOs are available on consoles so you can have that one but you don’t get to claim RTS games. Any rational person that tried to play Starcraft with a controller would eventually just shoot themselves in the head.

            ” Furthermore, you either like DOTA games or you don’t, a lot of people don’t.”

            Well you pretty much killed your own argument there didn’t you? Your whole schtick was that PC gamers should be jealous because we don’t get access to console exclusives…but I don’t like any of those exclusives. So, by your own reasoning you either like those exclusives or you don’t, a lot of people don’t.

            “Oh, are you referring to the Keyboard? An input device built for text
            entry and re-purposed for gaming? Yeah, that’s certainly the best
            controller….”

            No, he was pointing out that PCs can use any controller from any console and you can’t. You have to use the controller that works with your system. Me? I can use whichever controller I want.

            “No one on the internet could build a PC with the hardware of the PS4 for under $399. This topic has been discussed to death.”

            Yeah…might wanna check again son.

            ~Jake~

          13. Your response is completely moronic. First, when you talk about exclusives, you mention exclusives from Nintendo and then from Sony. Am I to assume that means in order to not miss out you purchase every single console that is released?

            Second, your definition of RTS and MMO games must be pretty loose because I don’t see even if they released Company of Heroes 2 or a similar game on console how you’d be able to control it with a console controller.

            Third, your argument about controllers is null and void. You can use ANY MODERN CONTROLLER you want on computer. And as far as you putting down the keyboard/mouse as a controller; if you used a controller and I used a keyboard/mouse, you would get your butt kicked repeatedly in most games.

            Fourth, PC gaming just costs less overall and that’s a fact. If I spent a little more for a much more fuel efficient car, then overall, it would be more wise to get the more fuel efficient car because of fuel costs. PC gaming is the same. Although you might spend a little more (maybe $600 for a good gaming PC) you will spend vastly less amounts of money on games and by not paying for Xbox Gold / Playstation Network all the time.

            Fifth, you completely contradict yourself with your last statement. Everyone has to have a PC. Spend the money you would on a crappy PC + spend the money you would on a severely gimped console and now you have a great gaming PC.

            I used to be a console gamer, until I just couldn’t stand the training wheels any more and now I exclusively game on PC. The only gamers that don’t use PC are people that really haven’t given it a chance. That’s because there is NO COMPARISON between the two.

          14. So MOBAs you mean, the other two are available on console or coming shortly. Furthermore, you either like DOTA games or you don’t, a lot of people don’t.

            Moba’s have been avalible for quite some time on consoles, they aren’t any good, but they are there. Just like MMO’s and RTS are on consoles, they are trash tier.

            Promoting piracy to win an argument? That is the DSOgaming way of doing things, I suppose.

            You aren’t aware that you have multiple ways to read old cartridges and a PC pretty much plays any discs out there. How is that piracy?

            Ever hear of Nintendo? Sony alone has dozens of studios making games for it’s console. Not to mention consoles of the past, look at PS2, look at N64, dozens of exclusives right?

            Just to fucking bad that you can’t actually play the MAJORITY of them, as they are on their old consoles. So either, you buy an old console, or you have one, either way, you end up with a stack in your living room. That or the console is close to impossible to acquire today, which means your fucked if yours broken.

            No one on the internet could build a PC with the hardware of the PS4 for under $399. This topic has been discussed to death.

            Correct, but I’m going to assume you’re not using your PS4 to browse this site, or your Facebook, or Playstation.com, you’re using that PC that could have invested $399 extra into.

            I prefer a dedicated gaming machine

            They are now dedicated media machines, with gaming as a sub thing, proven by they not putting very good hardware into it, something both MS and Sony did with their last generation. They (especially the Xbox 360, the PS3 was a bit outdated the year later it released) had amazing hardware for the time they released.Microsoft is becoming a bit better at this tho, getting up to the level of the PS3 and Xbox 360. Currently they are much better media machines.

            When your gamepad is ranked the best on the market and has been refined over 4 generations, I wouldn’t prefer to play with anything else. Oh, are you referring to the Keyboard? An input device built for text entry and re-purposed for gaming? Yeah, that’s certainly the best controller….

            Sorry, but now your on a subjective BS running here. Which is fucking pointless. By the press tho, it seems the Xbox 360 controller have gathered the most awards for being amazing, which I agree with. The placement of the tumbsticks on the PS controllers is a joke, IMO. Since you like using subjective BS in a discussion.

            And for the keyboard, re purposed for gaming, are you joking? it have never been re-purposed for gaming. It just works for gaming very well.

            Objectively, the PC have the best input, as it currently can use all the input methods.

            I’m sorry, but you’re quite irrelevant, as you’re jumping into a discussion with subjective BS. In a discussion you use facts, not your fucking opinion on what is best.

          15. “Ever hear of Nintendo? Sony alone has dozens of studios making games
            for it’s console. Not to mention consoles of the past, look at PS2,
            look at N64, dozens of exclusives right?”

            Still not as many exclusives as PC.

            “Promoting piracy to win an argument? That is the DSOgaming way of doing things, I suppose.”

            Emulators =/= piracy. If you get your rom’s and iso’s legitimately, emulators are not illegal. Also, don’t even get me started on the piracy rates on consoles.

            “When your gamepad is ranked the best on the market and has been refined
            over 4 generations, I wouldn’t prefer to play with anything else. Oh,
            are you referring to the Keyboard? An input device built for text entry
            and re-purposed for gaming? Yeah, that’s certainly the best
            controller….”

            PC’s can use any controller they want, even XBOX One and PS4 controllers, if I remember correctly. Also, keyboard/mouse > controller. Once, Microsoft tried to implement cross-platform gaming between PC’s and XBOX. This is what happened: “Problems quickly arose in testing, however, when Microsoft found that
            even the best console gamers simply couldn’t compete with the accuracy a mouse and keyboard afforded a PC player. ‘The console players got destroyed every time,’ Sood says. ‘So much so that it would be embarrassing to the XBOX team in general had Microsoft launched this initiative.'”

            “No one on the internet could build a PC with the hardware of the PS4 for under $399. This topic has been discussed to death.”

            Yes, but you can build one for ~$400-$500, and the amount you will save on games, peripherals, and other accessories will quickly make up for it, I guarantee.

            What part of EVERYONE HAS A PC isn’t clear? We all have a computer for productivity, and if you want to split that machine between business and pleasure, that’s fine. I prefer a dedicated gaming machine in addition to my Core i7 PC.

            Or, instead of buying a “dedicated gaming machine” for $400, you could pay ~$325 for a GTX 770 (or ~$500 for a 780), put it in your Core i7 PC (which is an extremely easy process) and have an extremely high-end gaming PC.

            ~praise gaben~

          16. A lot of people don’t like MOBAs. You’re right. Not sure how that’s relevant to his point. Regardless, I can assure you a HELL of a lot of people DO like MOBAs.

            “Promoting piracy to win an argument?”
            Not really. You can still buy the game. Emulation isn’t piracy. Nice try though with the strawman.

          17. You must be actually retarded. The build in that link is priced in Great Britain Pounds and after conversion, costs $563. That and I don’t see a blu-ray player included, not to mention something to control the system with.
            Seriously, go slap your mom for not having you aborted. I left this article long ago but I had to come back just to tell you how stupidly wrong you were.

          18. It’s sad that 20 other Sony fanboys actually think your comment makes sense. I swear, as far as consoles go I like my PS3 and PS4 best, but you Sony fanboys have to be the most ignorant, rabid and just plain delusional bunch of fanboys around.

          19. “Consoles have a few dozen exclusives” WRONG
            Consoles have MMOs so again you’re WRONG
            There is an after market device that will let you use any controller on any console so again you’re WRONG
            Is it really worth you being wrong about everything you say and missing out on great exclusives cause you’re butthurt, to me the answer is no.

          20. STALKER series.
            Baldur’s Gate 2.
            Neverwinter Nights 2.
            Wasteland 2.
            Divinity: Original Sin.
            Torchlight 2
            Thief 2
            X-COM UFO Defense
            Original Painkiller
            Antichamber.

          21. And how many of those games are gonna eventually come to PS4 ? Not only that but it wouldve been nice if they were quality single player exclusives not mmo’s and stuff like that but even with that list do you think any of those compare with console exclusives ?

          22. How many of them are coming to PS4?
            Absolutely none.

            How many of them are quality single player (Only?) Games? Every single one of them. Torchlight has Co-op, and so does Divinity/BG/NWN. But each and every game on that list is single player mainly without any MMO or PS4 port in sight.

            Trust me, you’re not playing any of them on console, ever.

          23. In reality most high-end PC gamers have consoles, and like me I just don’t get as much value I do out of PC gaming than I would on a few exclusives on console, and trust me we’re not missing anything.

            …and value as in gameplay value.

          24. Games are made exclusive to consoles because they would never be better on a console than on a PC. People should want to buy hardware because it is quality, not because of exclusive games. Never mind the fact that PC has way more exclusives than all the consoles put together. Have fun not playing games like Star Citizen, which is already awesome even though it’s not even alpha yet. You will never get it on console because your console will melt trying to run it. Enjoy living in the past for another console generation.

          25. “You’re missing the point, a PC can’t play a game better than a console when the game is ONLY released on consoles.”

            Oh you couldn’t be more wrong sir. One word for you

            Dolphin

            Plays any Gamecube and Wii game. Is the most advanced emulator on the market (is free too) and plays the “exclusive Nintendo” games better than the actual system does.

          26. Though you -do- have to own a Wii to get the games onto a hard drive. At least if you want to do it legally (not that that’s a big problem these days anyways, you can scoop up a used Wii for $60)

          27. Indeed and I do love the Wii (any Nintendo system really) they have always done there own thing

          28. 6.7 million units being sold at a profit sure isn’t bad, but I meant that it’s churning out some really fun games.

          29. You can just buy the disk though. Pop it in and play at FHD with AA, so much better than the console.

          30. I think there was one specific (and now highly coveted) LG DVD drive that could read Wii and GC disks, but that generally doesn’t work (apparently Nintendo uses some custom disk encoding or somesuch).

          31. This entire exclusives debate is stupid. Why do console gamers feel it is ok to group PS4 and XB1 together and say “we have more/better exclusives”.

            Most console gamers have ONE console, either a PS4 or an XB1. Most exclusives are exclusive to a particular console. Being a console gamer allows most people access to only a handful of exclusives.

            When you argue “but but but…. the exclusives” you are arguing against yourself. By buying only one console you are not allowing yourself access to a lot of exclusives.

            PC has more exclusives than you could play in your lifetime. LoL and Dota 2 are two PC exclusives that have an insane amount of players.

            LoL has 27 million daily players, that is more than the population of Australia. You can argue that you do not like LoL, but that has no bearing on this argument. The fact is, LoL is the most successful and popular game of all time… and it is a PC exclusive.

            When it comes to exclusives, PC has the best exclusives. This is not an objective judgement by me. It is a judgement made by 27 million people who play the game daily.

            MOBAs not your thing? That is cool, not my thing either.

            PC also has Star Citizen, DayZ, Rust, ArmA series, ESO (for the moment), Europa, Path of Exile, Planetary Annihilation… this list stretches to thousands of games.

            Most of the decent console exclusive titles, both XB1 and PS4 are coming to PC. If anything, limiting yourself to a single console means you are missing out on much more exclusives.

            If you buy both a XB1 and a PS4, then you can use the “I have more exclusives argument”…. but you will be in the minority.

            The truth is, PC has the best, and the most exclusives.

            So, in future, please use a better argument.

          32. yea ok…spend 1,000 on an xbone and Ps4 to play like 10 exclusives and pay $60 a game….makes sense to me!

          33. But that’s a two-way street. Console gamers miss out on games like Civilization, ARMA, Starcraft, DOTA/LOL, and pretty much every FPS ever made if you care about your experience not being restricted by bad controls.

          34. It’s also a thing that go’s both ways. And PC’s have a massive amount of exclusives. (they are also backward compatible with a lot of older consoles, just saying, consoles can’t even play the majority of console games.)

            Being uninformed doesn’t make you right.

          35. Still the ps4 is $399. That means the machine it self is cheaper then your $400 pc. And games discount ? You’re actually giving less money to the developer. We console gamer were the one that give them money to support their life. The developer love console gamer. Shame on you pc gamer

          36. Then why do devs make more from a PC game sale than a console one? Look it up dude this isn’t difficult. You console gamers brag about how you can resell your games to make a profit of like $2 and how that’s so much more than our saving 75% on a game (math is not your guys’s strong suit I take it)

            Used games give the devs exactly no money, shame on you console gamers

          37. WOW, so much miss information. no it means that the developers dont have to pay MS / sony to release a game on their platform, therefore making the game cheaper.

          38. You pay for mp, so no its not cheaper. Unlike you we dont need to buy a new machine we can just play games with our old machiens and spend 200 foa an upgrade.

            “We console gamer were the one that give them money to support their life. The developer love console gamer.”

            Newsflash, pc gaming makes more money than consoels and more developers work on pc than consoles.

          39. During Steam sales, the developer sets the prices for the games, not Steam. So they choose to take less money per game to make more with the doubled or tripled sales. And are you really gonna say a dollar is what’s stopping you from PC gaming. That’s petty.

          40. Says the person who’s platform of choice has it’s devs by the throat with a MASSIVE used market that, from a developer’s income perspective, is little more than piracy.

          41. What’s that? I can’t hear you over the money trucks leaving Gamestop and going straight to the bank. At least with cheaper games the developers still get paid. Used games (that caused such a huge backlash when they weren’t going to be allowed on consoles, remember that?) provide the developer with ZERO profit.

          42. Actually, you are giving less money to the devs, because it costs them more money to create a console game (licensing fees, physical disks/ boxes/ manuals for the games).

          43. When a Game goes on a Steam Sale, its sales skyrocket. People that otherwise would have not tried it, or not bought the Game at all (since that means they don’t consider the Game worth paying for at full price), would never have paid ANYTHING for it (regardless of if they Downloaded it or not), & the Developer would have lost out on Sales from the Sequels too.

            Also – 399 vs 400. You’re seriously going to argue about a 1$ difference? Alright then, let me just point out how 90% of Console Games are more expensive than their PC Counterparts. Let me point out how Console Royalties was one of the major Publisher Whinepoints about “Why We Need to Raise the MSRP to 60$ with the PS3/X360 Generation.” Did you know that Steam actually takes a smaller cut than Sony & Microsoft do with their Royalties? Not to mention that Steam has no physical item costs (CDs, Manuals, etc.) which cut into Console profits.

            Overall, Consoles sell more copies, but on a per-copy basis, PC earns more money.

            Get your facts straight next time, asswipe.

          44. “$400-$500” LOL LOL LOL These comments always make me laugh and show a clear sign of a child who has no idea what he’s talking about, a video card capable of providing ultra level graphics at high resolutions and locked 60fps frame rates would eat up all of that four to five hundred and then you still have to buy everything else to make a computer run. Stop lying about how much PC costs.

          45. Pull your head out of your a*s long enough to visit Newegg, & figure out exactly how much a Budget Rig PC really costs for yourself.

            Though that would require you to NOT click the GTX Titan Z advert, which would require you to be more than a shallow, empty vessel ready to be fed all the Hype Train bullshit, so why bother.

          46. GTX 750ti. Consumes 60 watts at load. I have the EVGA SC edition. Ran it at 60fps 1080P on Ultra (I had to turn one setting down to very high to get it at a steady 60fps) with a dual core i3 4150. I paid about $500 for my PC. I recently bought Bioshock 1,2 and Infinite for $9 on Steam. I also ended getting Metro 2033 and Last Light for $6 in a pack.

            You simply will NEVER see those prices on console. My PC is also upgradeable. I am purchasing Intel’s Broadwell chip when it’s released, which will be compatible with my H97 chipset. My cheapie 750ti is a placeholder for Nvidia’s next ultra low power consumption Maxwell cards come out.

            I have all of this running in a tiny, beautiful mini ITX case and hooked up to a monitor and also a wall mounted television when I feel like gaming on the couch with my wireless controller.

            I think more than ever, buying a console is getting to be the most ridiculous decision one can make. SSDs, graphics cards, and other hardware that are much more powerful are now on the market for the same price. This wasn’t the case when the PS3 and Xbox 360 came out…it took much longer to buy PC equivalent hardware at the equivalent price.

            In a year from now, a $150 video card will absolutely destroy what a console can do. Right now, a $150 card is on par with it and already outperforms it. Heck, a mid-range GTX 570 from 2010 outperforms a PS4..

            Much more very inexpensive games
            More customization and optimization
            Better productivity
            Steam.

          47. We don’t need equipment able to run everything at ultra shadows and SSAA to outstrip a console. When we say you can get a PC for $500, we just mean one capable of beating consoles by a noticeable margin.

          48. I didn’t say Ultra graphics at 60fps 1080p. You are correct, in that running games at such frame rates and graphics requires a bit more, but not that much more. $600-$800 is a fair judgement for that. HOWEVER, you are able to build a PC that can run on high/ultra graphics with more than 30fps at 1080p, which is better than any console. Here is an example build that I came across in a 15sec google search of “$500 Gaming PC” – http://pcpartpicker.com/p/JvwLcf

            PC does cost more upfront, but when you never have to buy full price games with regular Steam sales, and don’t have to pay for multiplayer access, PC pays for itself very quickly. Saving $5 a month from the monthly subscription is $60 for a year, then paying at least $20 cheaper for ten games, comes out to be $260. And that’s just for a single year, and just ten games. Chances are you’re going to buy more than ten games and play longer than just a year. Now, take the $400 price of a console, add $260. You get $660, which is a comfortable amount to build a PC with. PC saves money in the long run, which is why PC gaming is cheaper.

          49. Yet that is what Sony and their drooling lickspittles are claiming is the most important thing this generation.

            You are hopelessly outmatched here, kid.

          50. So I call you a kid and you call me a kid back?
            You PC gamers, so busy playing DOTA on repeat you’ve lost all sense of originality. Don’t pass on your genes, you’ll be doing the rest of humanity a favor.

          51. You are so angry that you are yelling “GO PLAY THE MOST POPULAR ONLINE GAME IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW BELOVED BY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE AND HAS MILLION DOLLAR PROFESSIONAL TOURNAMENTS”.

            Not that consoles would ever get a game with the depth and re-playability of DOTA 2 anyway.

          52. Hope you know Dota has more strategy involved than CoD. Who do we really want procreating here?

          53. said the person that prefers less graphics and lower frame rates all in the name of “EXCLUSIVES”. /logic

            If you could afford a high-end pc you would so don’t lie,
            in b 4 u claim to be wealthy .

          54. Oh that old chestnut that any PC gamer has to be an Xbot when PC gamers point out that the POS4 can’t even hit that hallowed 1080P 60FPS.

            Go away Sony reputation manager. Shill on Dualshockers. This is PC Master Race ground.

          55. typical sony logic, you are not a ps4 licker so you MUST be a xbot.

            Get over yourself.

          56. that is by far the stupidest load of nonsene i ever heard. So its not like you clowns go to a articlea about perfomance and starting a flame war on which console runs games better?

            Get real

          57. I’m playing Final Fantasy VI on my PC with filters that make it more HD. Can you do that on your Xbone? On your PS4? On your PS3? On your XB360? I don’t think so.

          58. it like people owning expensive cars…if somebody own lamborghini it doesnt mean the owner know everything about car and might even had common driving skills

            grown up kids,use you brain
            stop put a shame into others pc master race here..you just fake delusional

          59. Another kid who brings up an unnecessary argument based on nothing but his own misinformed bias. All he said was that it’s obvious PC’s are more powerful and people lost their shit haha

        2. PS4 has many great games that gamers love. That’s why it’s 10+ million in sales and growing. Sony’s large number of well funded 1st parties will ensure PS4 has a ton of great AAA exclusives, as many or more than PS3.

          PS4/Sony exclusives Jun-Dec: The Last of Us Remastered, Driveclub, LittleBigPlanet 3, Infamous: First Light, Samurai Warriors 4, Natural Doctrine, Guilty Gear Xrd, Singstar, and lots of indies (Resogun DLC, Counterspy, Hohokum, Velocity 2X, etc.).

          PS4/Sony exclusives 2015 (announced): Bloodborne, The Order, Ratchet & Clank Remastered, Uncharted 4, Let It Die, Deep Down, and lots of indies.

          PS4 has 35+ AAA games from July to December 2014. Most of those are multiplatform but there’s no shortage of AAA games for PS4 owners.

          PS4 games rated 73+ on Metacritic not on XB1: Final Fantasy XIV, Resogun, Transistor, MLB 14, Injustice, Trine 2: Complete Story, TowerFall Ascension, Infamous 2nd Son, Don’t Starve, flower, War Thunder, DC Universe Online, Dead Nation, Dynasty Warriors 8, MotoGP 14, Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, TLOU Remastered, The Swapper, Stick It To The Man, ZEN Pinball 2, Star Wars Pinball, The Pinball Arcade, Pure Pool, Fez, Rogue Legacy, Sound Shapes, Sportsfriends, PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate, SteamWorld Dig, Awesomenauts Assemble, Titan Attacks, Killzone: Shadow Fall, Escape Plan, Outlast: Whistleblower, Hohokum.

          1st/2nd party studios include Japan Studio, Polyphony Digital, Naughty Dog, SCE Bend, SCE San Diego, SCE Santa Monica, Sucker Punch, Pixel Opus, Evolution Studios, Guerrilla Games, Guerrilla Cambridge, SCE London, Media Molecule, Ready at Dawn, Quantic Dream, etc.

          Sony’s largest 1st party studios like Naughty Dog, Guerilla Games, and Santa Monica are working on unrevealed AAA games. Expect big 1st party AAA reveals in the future. Sony’s 1st parties are well funded and the games division is making a profit.

          Sony showed the following games at Gamescom 2014:

          Sony exclusives: The Tomorrow Children, Until Dawn, Tearaway Unfolded, Alienation, WiLD, Rime, DriveClub, The Order: 1886, Bloodborne, LittleBigPlanet 3

          Timed console exclusives: Dreamfall Chapters, HellBlade, The Vanishing Of Ethan Carter, Volume, HollowPoint, Runemaster, Nom Nom Galaxy, Pix the Cat, Papers Please, In Space We Brawl, Ether One, Qube 2, Snow

          Multiplatform games: Silent Hills (P.T. playable teaser), FarCry 4, Destiny, Shadow Of Mordor

          PS4 has a steady stream of games all year. According to Listwar it’s now 100 PS4 games to 59 XB1 games. The fact is PS4 has nearly twice as many games as XB1, and many of those are rated 73+ on Metacritic.

          Xbox has good exclusive games like DR3, Forza 5, Forza Horizon 2, Titanfall, Sunset Overdrive, Halo Collection, Quantum Break, Gears of War, Halo 5, Project Spark, Tomb Raider, Crackdown, Fable Legends, Scalebound, etc. Both consoles have good exclusive games, it’s only fanboys trying to trash one or the other.

          http://www.listwar.com/released-games

        3. Well its nice to see you only picked out Playstation games, so it would seem you still shill for Microsoft for their console.

          1. xbone is irrelevant, PC is getting the games anyway and the comments section is full of the same dualshillers clique like you trying to do damage control.

            Once again, the last bastion of the completely mad Sony shill is to call the PC gamers “Xbots” simply because they didn’t mention MS. Why not call me a Nintendo shill because I didn’t mention Nintendo either?

            So you have any actual arguments or are just want to accuse me of something I am not to save face and do damage control?

        4. Funny how “The Last Of Us: 46 fps Edition” got better review scores on Metacritic than any of the cheap, shoddy, last – gen, peasant dogshite that passes for an exclusive game on the PC. How does that make you feel? Did you get together with all your other basement dwelling retard friends and cry your eyes out when “The Last Of Us” won over 200 GOTY awards whilst your shitty, trashy, vermin – attracting PC games got laughed out of the building? I’ll bet you did, loser.

          If the cheap, peasant trash that passes for a game on the PC was winning the “GOTY” award then there would be something seriously wrong the gaming industry, fortunately that’s not going to happen. You know, because the trash that passes for a game on the PC is just that…trash. And, in case you and your master – spastic race friends didn’t know, trash doesn’t usually win awards.

          1. Wow. 200 GOTY awards from paid shills. Sony wheeled out the chequebook for that one.

          2. You do realize that the user score for Baldurs Gate 2 (9.3) a PC exclusive game is higher than Last of Us (9.0) right. I rather listen to the general public about their opinions of a game than the few paid shills that write sponsored reviews for a living.

        5. peoples down here are debating while these glorious pc masta race just sit tight and watch…i gues these master race only know about resolution and fps
          seriously annoying immature attitude put shame to others pc gamers

      2. hahaha. only game i want is bloodborne, everything else is overrated. i bet you love last of us and consider it it game of the decade. keep playinig at your 1080p, a resolution thats old news for us and so mind blowing for you, you cant even 60fps most games haha. trust me kid, our catalogue of exclusives is a lot bigger than yours. most indies are better than triple a games.

        1. “only game i want is bloodborne”
          Who wouldn’t?

          “keep playinig at your 1080p”
          Some of my favorite games of all time ran at resolutions far less than 1080p. Some of you teenagers can’t remember when HD wasn’t even a part of gaming…

          “most indies are better than triple a games.”
          And there goes your credibility…right into the toilet.

          1. you’re a sad old man, you know that? Just like you, 30fps & anything below 1080p is OBSOLETE. because new hardware is cheape and faster. Keep defending consoles and ignore the future. Just like an old man would.

          2. Funny, the guy above called me a kid. You PC gamers just can’t keep your stories straight, hey?

            I don’t defend consoles. I chastise people who call themselves “Gamers” and then ignore millions-selling console exclusives just so their pride isn’t hurt when they realize what they’ve been missing.

          3. I totally agree. But there is nothing wrong with higher resolution gaming. And if that title happens to be also a decent experience. Magic.

        2. Tlou is the most wonderful game ever. The story is so good it’s comparable to high class novels and books like the harry potter and lord of the rings series. Heck, the story is even deeper then game of thrones or the hunger games.
          You pc gamer can only play games that have the gameplay and story comparable to that stupid twilight movies. Yes that’s right. We console gamer has the best story telling games on the planet. Enjoy your “twilight quality game” pc gamer.

      3. Yes because PC gamers have plently of games to play, we don’t need exclusives that sell our system to survive. A console without exclusives is a toaster.

          1. Exactly, they need exclusives as I said to even sell the damn thing. Consoles are not even what they were, they’re just much slower PC’s with slow laptop components and still use slow optical media.

          2. That is a fundamental of the video game console industry, the same industry that has existed hand-in-hand with the PC gaming industry since the early 80’s.

            Real gamers have a PC to game on (Civ: Beyond Earth) and a Console to play the latest and greatest (Destiny, Bloodborne, Mario Kart)…. if you are just a PC gamer, that’s your problem.

          3. It’s not a problem, I gave up consoles over 10 years ago to game on PC excursively and never looked back. My last console was a Gamecube, I don’t care for console exclusives and Mario, Zelda any more, as I said, moved on from that over 10 years ago.

          4. Never looked back, because you don’t like good games?
            Every console has it’s 9 out of 10 games, it’s games that make ownership special. Denying their appeal or quality is just silly, especially when it’s in an attempt to bolster favor for PC gaming.

            Can’t you just admit that as a PC-only gamer, you are missing out on the product of some incredibly talented developers?

          5. I applaud you. Though trying to make sense of or bring logic to a group of people who’ve seemed to abandon it will be a fruitless, up hill battle. Gaming is gaming regardless of platform. PC is no better just as much as consoles are no worse. The conversation should always center around fun and enjoyment. Keep it up.

          6. “The conversation should always center around fun and enjoyment.”

            Except you know, why consumers are getting screwed and the industry is becoming worse but they are unaware to it in the name of “fun”

            PC has distinct advantages that a console does not have and I honestly can not really think of any disadvantages to a PC when it comes to a console comparison.

            We can play the majority of Nintendo games on our PC’s via emulator. However as far as PCMR members are concerned, Nintendo products are okay with us since they’re not lying to people.

          7. There are advantages on all sides of gaming. Will you be able to play Uncharted 4, Bloodbourne or Halo 5 on your PC? Now, you may say that you have no interest in those games but ultimately it comes down to YOU CANNOT play those games on your PC or countless other AAA/POPULAR/FUN/ENTERTAINING/EXCLUSIVE/MULTI-CONSOLE games in general…simply because you have drawn a stupid line in the sand. Will your enthusiast build cost less to operate (including utility bills)? Can you game on your GTX Titan or your 1440p monitor on your train ride to work like you can on a tablet or phone? Is your PC experience as simple or easy as the console experience? Will you have to go into a graphics menu and manually adjust a bunch of sh1t to get your game to look it’s best?

            As much as you would like to deny it, there are advantages to be found on every platform. As it would pertain to gaming, there is no one platform to rule them all simply because different people have different gaming needs at different times. PCs have their place just as much as the other platforms.

          8. Can you play your console on your 50″ 1080p TV on the train? And you can with a PC, get the Nvidia Shield Tablet. Problem solved.

          9. ?? I never said consoles were any more applicable in a mobile situation. I know you are trying to use my words and my logic against me but please read what I said closely. I am only trying to show the advantages each platform has. Handhelds, tablets and phones have their advantages as well as PCs and consoles. That is all I’m saying. Also, my originalstatement stands. You cannot game on a GTX Titan or a 1440p monitor on the train. As far as I know the Shield is a 1080p tablet. Isn’t 1080p a peasant resolution nowadays?

          10. Lol. Alright hot stuff. You’ve proven that you know how to type words on a keyboard… now make a point.

          11. Playing video games casually on a console doesn’t make you a gamer, it just means you play games casually. Playing football at the park with my friends doesn’t make me a footballer, driving bumper karts doesn’t make me a racecar driver, playing guitar hero doesn’t make me a musician.

            Pretty much all games on consoles are simply casual, with the odd exception with games like Street Fighter.

          12. Lol again. So let me get this straight. You are asserting that every console game and by extension every console gamer is casual. Is this in comparison to PC? By what criteria? Control or input scheme? Amount of time dedicated to playing games? Amount of games played or owned? I asked you to make a point but I also need you to make some sense while you’re at it.

            Hardcore and casual are designations that transcend platform and genre. A hardcore gamer is hardcore regardless of where he or she may play. PC is no more hardcore than consoles. Street Fighter is no more hardcore than Diablo, BF, DOTA, HALO, Madden, COD, Destiny et al. Hardcore is not defined by FPS, effects or pixel count my friend.

            Gamers simply play games. Maybe one day you and your friends will understand that.

          13. If I spent a majority of my time gaming, I’d probably want them to look the most visually stunning/perform the best. A true gamer would buy a PC and spend far less on games. It’s not that console gamers are not gamers, they’re just stupid gamers that prefer spending much more on games and haven’t experienced Ultra Settings and solid framerates in person.

            I started PC gaming in 2012 because I was playing Skyrim on my Xbox 360 non-stop. My friend invited me over and showed me how he was progressing in the game. I couldn’t believe it…It was so smooth it was surreal. It looked 100 times better. I decided to built a PC based on that five minutes of gameplay. I built one because I couldn’t restrict myself from that level of realism and improvement over what I was spending many hours on.

            Console gamers aren’t stupid. They simply haven’t experienced the glory yet. I still consider them gamers…they’re just simply unenlightened gamers.

          14. Look at DOTA2 the international. LOTS OF MONEY. Do fucking CoD doritos ops contests have that high a prize? Don’t think so. I’m not even mentioning CS:GO.

          15. “. PC is no better just as much as consoles are no worse.”

            But pc is better it does everything better if you think that you dont get everything out of pc, no you dont, but by the same logic you are missing out on games because you dont own a ds or a wiiu.

            Get it?

          16. I’m sorry… I don’t understand your statement. Not trying to be rude. Please clarify. My “PC is no better” statement just means that as far as gaming goes both platforms do the same thing. They display a moving image on a screen in which a person can interact with via a controller or a mouse and keyboard.

          17. Your pc has backwards compability and free mp by default. Now unless your pc is a piece of trash, id say it can do better than the xbone.

          18. Not missing out at all, check out Dolphin, I can hook up my wiimote to my PC and play any wii game (or nintendo game) with better graphics and AA and all that other tech jargon you likely won’t understand

          19. “Denying their appeal or quality is just silly,”

            Which is what console games do calling pc games “Crap”

          20. You seem to imply I give a sh*t about console games, well, I don’t and I have plenty of PC games to play. You people with all your games on multiple consoles must have no life because you’d spend most of it playing them and loads of your money paying for them.

          21. Real gamers support their game developer. You oc gamer and your discount were killing the developer. So what if we buy games at $10-$20 higher, that money goes to the developer and that will make them be able to stay alive and keep on going making games.
            I once see the humble bundle page. $10 for $15 games ? Wtf !!!! Developer create games with millions of money, and you pc gamer only par a couple of cents to buy it. Shame on you !!!

          22. PC gamers give more to developers while paying less because our distributors give larger %s to the devs while console games cost more and give less to the developers (don’t forget the 2ed hand market, where devs get 0%) due to the fact that Sony and MS have to take their large cut.

            I have a PS3 that I stopped using once I got a gaming PC, None of the console exclusives look interesting at all and are mostly just re-hashes of older titles.

          23. NOPE that money goes to MS / Sony to pay for a license to release a game on their closed console. so yeah. Misinformation at it”s finest .

          24. The developer sets the prices for the sales. If they sell 20 games at 60 bucks but 50 games at 30, which one makes you more money. Shame on you for not researching your shit before spewing it out of your mouth.

          25. Wow, you console users know nothing, you know nothing about margins, nothing about console dev kit costs, nothing about how much Sony and Microsoft take from games, peripherals and you seem to assume game studios lose from Steam sales and know nothing about Humble Bundle and why it’s done

            Unlike console games, PC games carry on making money 10 years plus later, unlike places like Gamestop who take a cut and sell you pre-owned console games so they can make more money off them that the developer doesn’t get.

          26. Real gamers must spend out stupid amounts of money just to get those exclusives then, PS4=£400, XB1=£400, Wii U=£249 + games at £50 each.

          27. and ironicly the exlusives dont really sell well.
            So sony fnaboys keep going on and on about their exlusives but no one buys them.

          28. Yep, Ryse sold so well they have to bring it to PC to try and make up for the losses.

          29. While PS3 as a hardware itself was a good demonstration of how good can be sony at hardware, the PS4 is a fucking cheap PC. Get over it, without exclusives whats the point of PS4, worst of all, you had to paid to play online, while in PS3 you dont.

          30. exactly his point, the xbone for example that has no AAA exlusive apart from forza at this point,its useless. Why? because it has no power of good capabilities so people dont buy it.

      4. And I guess console owners still need to make comments like this to help them forget all the awesome PC exclusives they miss out on. So many delicious exclusives.

        1. You’re ALL missing out! Unlike those of us who own all platforms!! NONE of you are winning the argument about who plays the best games!! HaHaHa

          1. Best games are in every platform, the point here is how kids think that a game is good or outstanding cause its exclusive to a certain console. A game is good because its devs really did their job, not because the console.

          2. I can barely even be bothered replying to you, never mind going out of my way to prove anything to your irrelevant trolling!

          3. So money’s the reason you don’t own all the systems then, nothing wrong with that but don’t pretend you’re not missing out on some great games on each of the systems you don’t own!

          4. And yet console users claim PC’s are expensive, why don’t you just add up all the cost of your exclusive games, the hardware and subscription on consoles just for that pleasure.

          5. Don’t need to I know what I spend because I work hard to earn it, I’ve spent more on PC this year but that includes buying a 4k monitor

        2. Who’s missing out on PC exclusives?
          I’m typing this from a PC. Everyone and their dog has a PC.
          The only people missing out are the people who call themselves “gamers” but then disregard the biggest AAA games on the market because they aren’t available on PC.

          If you don’t have a next-gen system AND a PC, you are the one missing out. Period.

          1. I bet your PC sucks ass. Bet it can’t do 1080p-60fps constant without stutter on games like Farcry 3. I bet money this is why you own a console. Exclusives? lol, exclusives hurt the industry, dumbass.

          2. Next time you jump to all those conclusions, you may way to grab a parachute!
            Why so sad, Mike?

            Did your Mom already tell you “No PS4 for Christmas”?

          3. 1080p and 60fps is just a myth. There’s no way a human eyes can differentiate anything higher then 720p and 30fps. To be able to compare 720p and 1080p you’ll need 500″ screen. And that difference can only be seen if you stand 1 feet from that large screen !!!

          4. Because a AAA exclusive title usually is. Publishers don’t spend tens of millions of dollars developing and marketing a game because they don’t think gamers will like it.

            The same certainly can’t be said for AAA Multi-platform titles that typically hit PC. These are just the proven console franchises that are being played out and have reached PC for additional sales opportunity. Look at all the Multi-Plat AAA titles (like AC for example), most started on console and hit PC after their sales success.

          5. No it doesn’t. Halo has been a piece of shit since after Halo 3. GoW was always shit. Forza is mediocre. No one cares about whatever else Xbox has exclusively after those games. The only company that has good exclusive games is Nintendo.

          6. Hey, c’mon, I didn’t drag Microsoft into this conversation for a reason…
            Sony had some great exclusives until MS bought into them all. Hopefully there are some great new IPs in the pipeline.

          7. Since I heard the last God of War didn’t even reach 5 million of copies, bad for a console that sold 70 millions of units as sony said. and not everybody liked it. Gears of War 3 and the last one wasn’t the taste of many.Many of that millions you said are for marketing, you know that thing that makes you think you are playing something good when it is not.

          8. The last god of war didnt even hit 2 milion sales same goes for the last 2 infamous game sand the last resistance.

            “yoshida “only 4/10 sony exlusives sell”

          9. “Publishers don’t spend tens of millions of dollars developing and marketing a game because they don’t think gamers will like it.”

            yoshida “only 4/10 sony exlusives sell”

            PWND!!

          10. Oh wow, that’s pathetically stupid. Console exclusives are no better on average than multiplatform games. The scores reflect this, and it’s obvious to anybody that has played a decent number of games. Some exclusives suck, some are decent, some are good, and some are great. Same goes for multiplatform games.

          11. highest selling game on ps4? cog ghosts at 2 milion something. Both son’s big AAA exlusives have a milion something sales.

            Seems to me quality eludes console gamers mind.

          12. ” then disregard the biggest AAA games on the market because they aren’t available on PC.”

            All the “biggest” AAA games are on pc aside from destiny, tis coming too.

            Dont forget to pick a xbone to play the biggest “AAA” exlusive and a wiiu to play their biggest AAA exlusives even if you dont give a flying crap about those games.

          13. or you don’t believe in marketing hype, going both consoles already please enlighten me as to which game so far have justified a console with no back wards compatibility ?

        3. We don’t need pc exclusives. Most pc exclusives is CCC game. That’s for crap crap crap games exclusives. While most exclusive on console is AAA game. That’s awesome awesome & awesome !!!!
          1 exclusive AAA game on console is equal to 1000 CCC game on pc. So enjoy your crap game pc peasants race.

          1. what a clown you dont even know what AAA means. AAA is BUDGET NOT quality or ratings.

            Star citizen for example has a bigger budget than ANY console exlusive EVER.

            If you buy a console for “Exlusives” thats like admiting that the actual hardware and capabilities of the system are CRAP. We use pcs for the system and features NOT for games that were made specificly for one platform in order to sell it and YET dont even manage to do that with low sales and subpar ratings.

      5. Go Home You are Drunk!!
        Seriously!!! What about Arma Series, Starcraft, League of legends Dota, Star citizen, Half Life and Many many More!

        1. I’d quit with the image tags..Your maturity is showing in spades…

          No one said PC didn’t have some great games, I can’t wait for Civilization Beyond Earth. If you only game on PC however, you are missing out on a lot of great games.

          1. ” If you only game on PC however, you are missing out on a lot of great games.”

            if you game on ANY single platform you miss out great games, including ds.

          2. thank you. well kinda. i game mostly on PC because any games i want to play come to PC. i do have a wii U for nintendo. but if you play PC or Console exclusively you are missing out.

          1. trash?

            They are high rated ,but apparently they are too complicated for you.

            Pc does everything better ,just accept it and ditch your trashbox.

        2. Those game you mention all have nerds playing it. The cool kids will play on a xbox1 or ps4. At least we have good games. Good life. And wonderful girlfriend. Stay virgin nerd pc gamer. Hahahahaha.

          1. “Those game you mention all have nerds playing it. ”

            If you waste your time posting here to damage control a corperation that makes the plastic box that plays your games YOU ARE A NERD and a VIRGIN.

            nuff said.

            “The cool kids will play on a xbox1 or ps4.”

            You mean the idiotic dudebros? Also yes we KNOW that consoles are for “kids” dont remind us. Just reallize it and grow up and buy a pc.

          2. They bring in more money that those console exclusives, Sony and Microsoft only wish they had WoW, League of legends and Dota because they destroy console sales.

      6. Playing on console for me was like trying to enjoy the feeling of racing, on a circuit, with a 60hp family car, no manual stick, with handlebar instead of a steering wheel….. right after I’ve driven a beautiful sports car.

        Not saying consoles aren’t good for people who enjoy playing on them, but at least I and probably for some others as well, couldn’t care less about the games if we cannot enjoy the full experience or I cannot tweak it to our liking. . That’s why I don’t miss RDR (bought it and play some of it on a friend’s console), TLOS and so on. On PC I might give them a chance, just like GTA 5, but other than that, I don’t really feel I’ve missed anything.

        1. exatly the more i played uncharted the more it felt like i was emulating a ps2 game, bad controls subpar framerate jaggies aim assist.

      7. No the articles are made for cosnole idiots who think cosnoles cant touch pc when they use inferior pc hardware.

        What AAA exulsives you talking about? Knack was a flop shadwofall was a flop, infamous is just average.

        yoshida:

        “only 4/10 sony exlusvies sell”

        Your exlusives are irrelevant we got more exlusives than all consoles combined and unlike your AAA movie trash they do make their money back.

        1. It doesn’t matter how the game sells. There are truly unique first party Sony exclusives that you can’t label as AAA movie trash. Pretty much everything that is developed by Naught Dog is first class, Gran Tourismo is a super racing simulator, Japan Studio’s Shadow of Colossus is still one of my favorite games plus there’s a lot of indie/experimental stuff like Journey, SoundShapes etc. Sony’s first party portfolio is very diverse and contains tons of top quality titles. PS4 is still very young and there are potentially great titles in the pipeline. Such games are a reason enough to own a console.

          P.S. PC + console = peace.

          1. “Japan Studio’s Shadow of Colossus ” Team Ico didnt released any game in almost ten years.

          2. Wrong, they need to sell otherwise Sony and Microsoft shut the studio down if it’s not making money. If Naughty Dog isn’t making money, nether is Sony or their other studios.

          3. “There are truly unique first party Sony exclusives that you can’t label as AAA movie trash.”

            No i cant put both of those there. They are either movie trash like beyond two souls, or they are trash like killzone.

            Stil sony exlusives are overrated and hard anyone buys them for the hype they get over the net.

            Wherver they sell or not DOES matter becuase they keep making sequels to games NO ONE wants.

            Call me back when ps4 gets uncharted 4, until then i dont see anything interesting.

      8. No, we like the PC games better. They’re better. They’re not mediocre, oversequelized, simplified, console-centric cash-grabs.

      9. You remind me of those handful of idiots that say “what? It’s not on Steam? Why buy it then.”

        Sure, if it’s on uPlay, Origin, or any other one of those 3rd rate Moron-Powered Services, I’d rather buy it on Steam myself, but ffs, you don’t buy a Game because it’s on Steam, you buy it to play it. You buy it to play it on your Platform of choice, assuming you’re provided with a choice in the first place.

        Besides that, I have all 4 PS Consoles, & I’m not ashamed to admit it. :O Amazing isn’t it, a PC Gamer that’s not allergic to GOOD GAMES?

        The PS3 has some great Exclusives, regardless of Framerate & Resolution, though I am pleased I held off on buying MGS V on PS, as I would much rather buy it on PC.

        Now onto the actual Console to which Ryse was previously Exclusive to, the XBONE: The only thing I lose out (that I actually care about) by never having bought ANY of the Xbox Consoles is Halo, which is sad, but I refuse to play FPSs with a Controller anyway, so I’m more than content waiting for Microshit to pull their heads out of their asses on this matter.

        Far as Ryse itself – It wasn’t worth buying on the XBONE, & it’s not worth buying on the PC. Crysis had something going for it Gameplay-wise, this is just a sick, sad, sorry joke that shouldn’t exist in the first place, regardless of Platform.

        P.S. For the record, I shamelessly state for all the Internet to see that I did indeed buy the Metal Gear Solid Legacy Collection on my PS3, just as I would again on the PC, if it is ever released. Look beyond your close-minded retardation (if you’re even capable of that), & you’ll find out that I’m not the only one either. There’s a reason so many people want to see Metal Gear on the PC, amongst many other Console-Exclusive Titles/Series.

      10. It seems the vast majority of your argument has been picked apart by your own contradictions and the other people here. Your warning has an “I’m right and anyone who disagrees with me is a baby” self righteous arrogance to it, as if you believe your opinion was immediately irrefutable.

      11. Yes, sooooo many AAA console exclusives. lol

        I owned a PS3 all generation and I can count on my hands all the exclusives I actually liked.

        There are just as many PC exclusives I wouldn’t want to miss either.

        The difference is, my PC plays better-looking, better-running versions of all the multiplatform games, which are by far the most prevalent.

        1. It’s supposed to prove that Uncharted 4 looks better than any game currently out, be it pc or console. That is a screencap of the e3 trailer 🙂

          And it’s actually targeting 1080p/60fps btw.

          1. GTFO you STOOPID dumb console peasant!
            You really must now by now hot pathetic weak these so called nextgen consoles is right!

            If you really belives that, well lets put it this way, Sony has atleast manage to fool some dumbasses!

          2. look whos talking, the idiot who fins every single comment someone made that doesnt agree with demfax/extreme derp/ps4lol and other fake acounts of this guy’s “opinions”and spams every single message.

            Its you who is derranged and needs help.

          3. I was going to post a 1080p screen of Star Citizen but it is too big a file to post on this discussion board. All you need to know is that Star Citizen is the best looking game right now and it isn’t even done yet. Also, while you are struggling to get 1080p/60fps on your console, both of those are becoming things of the past on PC.

          4. 1080p/60fps is attainable in most games on a $400 PC. My PC was quite a bit more than $400 but that is really just another advantage of PC. If you have the money and want to game at 1440p/144fps like I do you can. All in all my PC was about $4000 but it does more than 10 times more than a console can. My PC destroys any game at 1440p. My PC also a media server. My PC has 24 TB of mechanical HDD storage and a 1TB SSD. My PC has 32GB of RAM. I definitely got more bang for my buck than any console could offer.

          5. “It’s supposed to prove that Uncharted 4 looks better than any game currently out, be it pc or console.”

            Well it does a pretty terrible job of showing that.

            “That is a screencap of the e3 trailer”

            Yes, because E3 trailers are always a 100% accurate representation of the final game.

            “And it’s actually targeting 1080p/60fps btw.”

            Exactly, they are only targeting that, most likely they’ll stick with 30fps or downgrade the graphics/resolution. They couldn’t maintain a solid 60fps on The Last of Us, so they certainly aren’t going to do it on this game.

          6. its a teaser made by one person, naughty dog always downgrades, i still laugh at how uncharted 2 apaprently beat crysis…stupid fanboys.

            Case and point multiplatform games on pc will beat any of your exlusives any day.

            Stop posting teasers as actual ingame graphics. Naughty dog always downgrades

          7. not trying to give the other idiot the benefit of the doubt because he posted a cg trailer, but what the shit is this? Those character models look laughably cartoonish, his at least looks human but it shouldn’t matter since it cg. I laught everytime somebody posts crysis 3 character models.

          1. Wut? Are you trying to say he is joking or that he wasn’t? Because he actually wasn’t joking…

      1. Wow. A CGI Trailer played at double speed that looks worse than Crysis 3 on a series famed for it’s downgrade.

        Be excited everyone!

        1. PCs and consoles have different pros and cons depending on THE CONSUMER’s needs. It’s only delusional, hateful fanboys that think their opinions are “the truth” and try to prove them as absolutes.

          Some gamers want a console, not a PC, and they want the best performance for their money on multiplatform games. That means PS4. Sorry if consoles being a viable business market upsets you.

          1. Go abck to the looney bin where you belong etreme derp.

            “It’s only delusional, hateful fanboys that think their opinions are “the truth” and try to prove them as absolutes”

            LOOK WHO TALKING, the guy who thinks HIS opinions are the word of god adn everyone else is wrong.

            Please go to a mental asylum.

            “Some gamers want a console, not a PC, and they want the best performance for their money on multiplatform games.”

            and we dont have a problem with people who want consoles but best perfomance for your money on a console? that statment contradicts itself.

          2. Sony lost $78 million which means they are not a viable market.

            Sorry if that upsets you that PC gaming is the only future of gaming.

          3. “Best performance for their money”
            $400 plus 50 every year and $60 (eventually $40, if you wait a year) a game is cheaper than a $600 PC you can get games for $20 after a month’s wait?

      2. haha this is hilarious where to begin? Posting a pre-render trailer does not help you argument AT ALL. The game will NEVER look this good!especially with all the effects that e3 trailer showed. ps4 is an ok piece of hardware, but it’s no nasa computer bruh. Like others have said go check out Star Citizen and temper your expectations accordingly.

        1. yes they dont seem to remember that naughty dog always downgrades compared to e3, let alone this teaser was made by one person and its not actual ingame gameplay, its just a face and soem background thats it.

          1. its cg no game looks like this yet, just look at the lighting and the insane amount of character detail.

          2. its just a freaking teaser, a cutscene not the actual game with large levels full of detail multiple characters ,etc etc, when the game is finally shown as GAMEPLAY you will see that it wont look as good when its out then you will see the downgrades.

      3. oh look its a face and some backrroung, thats all you have seen from the game and yet you seem to think the final result will be like that.

        It was made by a single person its not the actual game. Just a teaser, infact naughty dog is known not to deliver

        http://i3.minus.com/jbyWPYYIrSeVPN.png

        Infact they didnt even manage to deliver on the suposelly amazing ai the last of us would have

        I still laugh at how uncharted 2 beat crysis according to console fanboys.

        wos such graphiz beats cryssis!!

        The truth is this

        http://postimg.org/image/8u9cbo5dt/

        multiplat pc version on midrange pc will always look better than your console exlusives.

    2. Ah, but they need to point it out in order to make us fall onto their Hype Train, just as they once claimed the Crysis PS3/X360 version was better looking than the PC version……

  3. Crytek, make a PC exclusive game like Uncharted or The Last of Us, then we will love you again like before.

  4. “Console hardware was considerably less powerful than high-end PCs at launch”

    i bet the spend 10million $ on R&D to get this, lol. and we all knew that before launch for free 😀

    1. No they spend BILLIONS on R&D and as nvidia said only them, intel and amd can spend that much not sony or ms.

  5. Both sony and Ms should waited longer for next gen console 2015 will be good or mid 2014 cause gpu is the only thing current gen better than last gen cpu = meh wtf are they thinking a console with a cpu phone like

        1. only it doesnt they removed multiple things, volumetric lighting, they also removed Bokeh DOF, Tessellation,
          Muzzle Flash shadows, Characters cast semi transparent models instead
          of actual shadows, Smoke & Fog effects have been toned down heavily,
          Smoke is no longer illuminated by Light, ouch, talk about downgrade,
          sad when Next Gen consoles from late 2013 can’t run a game from early
          2010.

          1. that’s why a titan can’t run metro at 1080p/60fps ultra, get real nerd, read the article form DF, the 4A’s techincal chief himself says that the games is high-very high pc settings on ps4, that’s good enough for a $400 machine nerd

          2. my god kid, you are becoming a complete joke.

            METRO LL DOES NOT RUN AT THE VERY HIGH PC SETTINGS YOU CLOWN.

            A 400$ PC CAN RUN THE GAME AT THE SAME SETTINGS AS PS4.

            PERIOD!!

            Now go playin traffic retard.

          3. what do you want me to read? The developers patched in volumetrric shadows a feature that the original metro 2033 had on pc in 2010, apart from that they cut down features from the cosnole version. Such as Bokeh DOF, Tessellation,
            Muzzle Flash shadows, Characters cast semi transparent models instead
            of actual shadows, Smoke & Fog effects have been toned down heavily,
            Smoke is no longer illuminated by Light.

            Your console version is toned down, ps4 runs the game no diffirent than a 5 year old pc.

            As for the titan not running the game in 60 fps? IT runs it in 150 fps unless you turn the SSAA all the way up, which uses antialising to every single object in the screen and its impossible to run at 60 fps and it wont be even 10 years from now. Needless to say the consle versions dont have SSAA at all Let alone x5 that pc has.

            pwnd!!!

          4. What dream on moron the patch made by the developesr added those thigns stop being a retard.

          5. the devs?? what devs?? those devs at ubisoft that said how far cry 4 will be like ultra pc on ps4??

          6. Funny you pick up ubisoft, they said watchdogs was lead on pc, yet that wasnt the case.

            Its proven by now that metro last light has better graphics on pc then why are you arguing?

            Another funny thing is that the pc version of ubisoft games is made by ubi kiev so how the hell does ubi montreal who make the console version have a say on this?

            Lies lies and lies typical ubisoft stuff.

          7. “metro is almost identical on ps4 and pc”

            And xbone if you gonna go that road.

            If high settins vs ultra with a significantly visible improvement on volumetric lighting is amost identical to you, then you will include xbone as well.

          8. Yeah its 1600x900p. Guess what else is runing on that resolution? bf4 and watchdogs on ps4,yet you fanbos say that its nearly identical with pc and they also run on high settings.

            Double standards much?

          9. and pc is better than all of them with 1080p and ultra graphics that you cant have.

            Yet you draw the line on beating xbone. While pc has far better graphics.

          10. nope the 750 ti beats ps4 on all games and its 149$ sorry no pc gaming is cheap and powerfull infact al your consoles have is Crap pc hardware.

          11. btw i liked this part in the article

            “I’ve played Metro Last Light for hours on PS4 and Xbox One and that
            60fps is basically locked. Obviously some of the PC high-end features
            are reduced or altered, but in an age where not even Naughty Dog can’t
            run its last-gen title consistently at 1080p60 on PS4, what is the
            secret of your success?”

            BAHAHAHH even the site you send me says that the console version is toned down and TLOU didnt stay at 60 fps on ps4.

          12. bro, that’s DigitalFoundry’s saying, if you read it all 4A’s technical chief is proving them worng

          13. Proving them wrong on what? There is no pc version comparison at the time you posted the comment stop making stuff up.

  6. This article is stupid….
    It reads like a “everything wrong with Xbox One article” yet they did this interview while collecting an award for best in game graphics. It cant be all that bad.

    Not to mention Ryse was a launch title….. before the spec were finalized, before the new sdks, before the GPU reserve as open, before DX12 and the game is the only game whos graphics has really impressed me so far. Sure there are other game pretty games and some good looking stuff out there like the particle effect in Infamous SS and some of the texturing and light in Killzone but as far as I am looking at this and just in awe RYSE is the only one so far.

    Although I think the The Order 1886 and Quantum Break will soon take the title.

    1. The power of the marketing, nobody knows if those games will be good, but console kids sticks to those as gold. LOL. BUT, when an INDIE game comes to pc, you automatically qualifies it as a “SHIT” Stop the nonsense, you dont know if those games will be good or bad, you dont know even if you are gonna like them.

    2. stupid or not the developers of metro already talked about xbox one and how its weaker than ps4 with noticable problems, the sdk is getting better each time but ps4 will always be second and pc first.

  7. I think people who prefer more power over games like better graphics and framerate should go with PC it is more expensive indeed but also packs a lot more power than a next gen console, and people who care more about AAA exclusive like Uncharted 4 Bloodborne Forza horizon 2 Driveclub The order 1882 Little big planet 3 Killzone Infamous second son Quantum break Halo Rime Gears of war etc etc should stick with consoles

    1. Why should i stick with either one? Why not both? But my preference is PC. If it wasn’t this corporates who forced me to game on consoles for the exclusives i wont bother with an underpowered low end PC box.

    2. And people who prefer, starcraft, original sin divinity, path of exile, Rust, Star Citizen, Routine, Tropico 5, Yatagarasu, Mount and Blade series, Lichdom Battle Mage, Civilization,Arma etc etc etc will stick to PC. Actually I like you comment because it show how console gamers stick to old franquises that doesnt add anything new to the gaming itself, Uncharted is the same game since the first, infamous is GTA with powers, Little big planet the most boring racing game ever, killzone cant even beat on sales to COD on PS3, the order… that game that were announced to 1080p at 60fps, then it was dumbed down to ridiculous resolution below to 900p to maintain “cinematic aspect”. Gears of war, i heard the last two were awful games. Forza, with a lot of racing games coming to PC who cares? Halo, overrated, a slow FPS for kids. AAA games you said? LOL.

        1. I dont care about Bloodborne, Im behing Lichdoom Battlemage or Risen 3, those have received good reviews, if you care about a game that is not even released, that just show you are a fanboy.
          Only few you said, I want to see The Order game selling better than Starcraft, cause until I know PS4 has just sold 10 millions of units, barely matches the copies of starcraft 2 sold worldwide.
          Civilization is always a huge success on PC, million of players worldwide; I didnt want to mention PlanetSide 2, SOny is not as dumb as their fanbase, they know better that Planetside 2 is the most played Sony game right now.

        2. yeah pony, because sony exlusvies is soemething that everyone cares about.

          “only 4/10 sony exlusives sell”

          Yoshida.

          Sorry your exlusives=irrelevant

          Whats the deal with blooborne? its dark souls mod, its not like you dont have dark souls 2 or lords of the fallen, if they actually had somethign original them maybe..but ofcourse console exlusives are not original.

        3. And the Dualshillers are so rectum rekt they have to run at a silky smooth 30FPS over to DSOG Master Race City to defend their potatoes.

          This section just gets better and better.

          1. Says the person following me around every day to scream that and does it for free.

          2. MONSTER KILL!!

            I even have a picture of him in dualshockers saying his usual “both systems have great games” and then 2 users saying to hime “i dislike people who desperatly trying to change other perople prefences and flag their comments when they get poven on wrong on their bs”

            he is a joke on disquss

          3. Sony need to hire reputation managers who can speak the English language instead of just copying out barely legible walls of text.

            Of course, if he is doing it for free, he’s the one mentally ill.

          4. Look whos talking the clown who has been banned from everywhere and has multiple fake acounts and KEEPS trying to change peoples prefences to suit his own and if they dont agree with him he keeps spamming them on the whole page.

            Go to the insanse asylum you belong.

          5. You’ve trolled these comments more than anyone numpty! Around 30 posts in an hour ALL of them trolling!! JOG ON!

          6. you are a pathetic moron who goes around bashing pc gamer and defending extreme derp, please jump off a brigde.

          7. Extreme derp is almost as big a numpty as you dakan45, I’ve not defended him once! I don’t bash PC gamers(which I am myself), I disagree with PC fanboys, there’s a difference!

          8. I thought you were dakan45.

            The only one who represnt internt trolls is you.

            Grow up already and exit your mothers basement.

          9. i dont have any oherr acounts, but for someone who is called dikan45 you have to ask yourself who is the one with the banend acounts.

        4. And the Dualshillers are so ass blasted they have to run at a silky smooth 30FPS over to DSOG Master Race City to defend their potatoes.

          This section just gets better and better.

  8. Well, certainly hard to argue with the obvious…
    But one has to wonder, why such talented rendering engineers feel the need to explain such obvious facts in the first place. Are they making their presentations to casual mobile gamers these days?

    1. actually its because there are alot of stupid console fanboys outhere. Remember all those stupid statements from the likes of ea that consoles are a generation ahead from pcs? next gen hype always comes to spew nonsense and that pcs off pc gamers.

  9. Heh, most console exclusives on launch are pretty much casualized movie games, pretty sure I’m not missing out, especially since MGSV is coming to PC and so are some of the claimed console exclusives. So there is Literally no reason for me to own a console.

  10. The PS4 and Xbone cost 399.99, not to mention the ones that come with free games. You cant get a PC with similar specs, a controller and OS for the price of a console. And these are still launch prices. Wait until they get cheaper. I have both and a Gaming PC. I just prefer gaming on my 55 and 47 inch screens. Some of these PC guys spend too much time reading this shit instead of actually playing.

    1. you can stop posting nonsense.

      Besides why would you get an os and controller? YOu already have those.

      Pc has lower pricers and free mp.

      Therefore its cheaper, you only saying that trash because you dont like pc gaming and you prefer consoles.

      “I just prefer gaming on my 55 and 47 inch screens”

      and still play under 1080p.

      I just dont get this idiots

      1. That’s a lot of hate for no reason. I didn’t build a gaming PC to surf the internet. I have Steam and Origin. People don’t buy a console for the best graphics. They buy them for convenience. An all in one package. PCs are poorly coded for due to so many variations. PC may be cheaper. Better graphics. But I like picking up a controller and having fun. My PC sits in my office and is used for occasional gaming. A true gamer used their PC with consoles. Durka, quit typing and go play some games. I am leaving to pick up Deadrising 3 now. Later.

        1. “People don’t buy a console for the best graphics.”

          YOU COULD HAVE FOOLED ME cuz all i keep hearing is how ps4 runs x game better than xbone and when i looke at the sales…well, ill put it this way, 10 milion ps4s have been sold and the game sales are under 2 milion.

          So wtf they playing?

          “They buy them for convenience”

          The convience is fading, installs, patches, log ins, glitches etc etc.

          ” A true gamer used their PC with consoles”

          Yeah but pc does it better thus a superior experiance that is more fun

          “I am leaving to pick up Deadrising 3 now. Later.”

          Exactly do you know how much more fun that game will be on 60 fps with mods on my pc?

      2. I play on PC using my 47″ HD TV…and yes at 1080p with my beloved GTX560Ti OC. Profit. 😉

        PS: Sad part is that I’m starting to see less from a distance…lol…

    2. PC plays on TVs too via HDMI or via wireless streaming over our home network.

      When new hardware comes out the old hardware gets a price cut and the better performing hardware takes up the original price point. We’re free to continue on with the lower specs at a reduced price or take up the better performing part at the original price point. Price cuts aren’t exclusive to consoles.

      We pay for our OS because it provides more utility for us than just allowing us to launch or buy games. PC users get a lot of value out of one device. Consoles only do one thing, and they’re not particularly good at that this generation either.

      The vast majority of PC users prefer mouse and keyboard, but if we want a controller we’ll just go and buy one. Microsoft, Sony, or third party. It doesn’t matter. It’s no different than a console player buying a second controller.

      1. I agree somewhat. I just like hitting a button on the controller and getting my game on. Also, I don’t have to toy with the settings like you do with PC. A console has one setting. I like a mouse and keyboard at times. But when I play Titanfall on PC, I kill tons of people and Titians. Everyone complains that I’m cheating by using the controller. I would choose my PC over my consoles any day. I use it for a lot of things.
        I’m just trying to explain that you get a lot of bang for your buck by getting a console. At first anyway. I got lucky. I built my PC for 625.00. A lot of people have to spend more for a PC near the ability of the PS4.
        PC guys get Upgrade fever. I have a R9 280x, and a lot of people say my graphics are weak. I max out 95% of games with my setup at 1080p.
        Even though I have a 1080p 32 inch monitor, I still prefer my 55 and 47 inch TV. But do whatever makes you happy.
        My PC AMD 8350, 8Gb AMD DDR3. 1Tb HD, Club R9 280X OCed, 256Gb SSD, Fatal1ty motherboard, DVD drive, EVGA 700 watt modular PSU.
        I have a PS4, Xbox One and two PS3s also. I have had almost every console that was made. This is my 8th gaming PC. I like to build and then sell.

        1. Yet you have a gaming PC, so what you talking about? Stop playing both sides like you think you have to. Switch on PC, click game icon on desktop, done.

    3. You know, PC’s are for reading on as well and doing other things than playing games and you’re a hypocrite, it’s easy to hook your PC upto a TV, we been doing it for a long time pre HD as well.

  11. What a shock, now these clowns come crawling back to Pc land – NOOT!
    They better start deliver then or else we pc gamers will just treat em like UbiSoft that = Total Crap, dont pay a dime for our sh*tty games, just F*CK d/l for free heh!

  12. I cant belive how real character models looks in last video. These are ingame models, or this is rendered just for cinematic sequences?

    Crytek said it as well.

    Avalanche studios said it a while ago, look it up on this site.

    How else do we have to say this, a decent pc not jut “high end” can perfom better than “next gen” consoles because just like we have said since the specs were revelead they are underpowered.

    Also no, only 6 cores and 5gb are available for gmaes, the os needs resources too, it doesnt run on magic.

  14. lol crysis on pc made all the money, the console versions used money made by crysis on pc to be made and they were flops.

  15. anyone that thinks a high end PC that is continuously upgraded is not more powerful than a console that you cannot upgrade… is just… well… not smart.

  16. UWAAAAHH 0_0 … so this is how it looks like when the comment section has been invaded by console gamers. Looks like the comment section of gamespot 0_0

    Seriously though, why go all the way to a PC gaming site —,— ? …

  17. Becase we so didn’t know that already. Just look how a high end gfx card cost, and compare it to the console itself. You will see then how they really compare. We don’t live in a magical world where the gfx cards turn/get cheaper if they are build inside a console -.-

  18. Bought a GTX 680 last year and I already feel like I’m slipping behind. And it is still probably more powerful than the next generation of home consoles.

  19. They said an entirely different thing when Crytek announced that Ryse is an Xbone exclusive. Now that it’s coming to PC, they shift their tune.

    Typical Crytek bastards, influenced by EA turds.

  20. Just in… Microsoft sucks, and we want you to buy a PS4! That’s all I hear from these websites. I own a PS4 and an Xbox One and they both are awesome! But I think some of these websites should write for Playstation.


  21. Crytek Faced Xbox One ESRAM Issues, Console Hardware Considerably Less Powerful Than High-End PCs”

    Even kikes can count that far.

  22. As always, when a story goes viral it’s really hard to moderate its comments. Some comments were deleted while others were edited. Keep it civil people. You are free to back up your opinions with arguments, however there is really no point cursing or start calling names 🙂

  23. so much insecurity here ,damn… comparing PCs to game consoles like comparing horse or a donkey to a Ferrari or an airplane. PC is not meant for gaming , its meant for work and still it plays games better than any console 90% of the time, thats why its more expensive. Enjoy what you like and what you can idiots, dont bother with BS like this

  24. “used in pre-recorded cut-scenes in Ryse”

    Been saying it all along and there’s the proof, Ryse was only pretty in cut-scenes.

  25. WOW, I guess the sweaty, uneducated, simple little PC master spastics don’t like the truth. You morons should spend less time locked away in your mothers basements and more time paying attention to the outside world. The PC does have a lot of exclusives, you’re right, it’s just too bad that they’re all cheap, shoddy, last – gen garbage that only an idiot beyond salvation would enjoy.

    A quick look at Metacritic would tell you that console exclusives like Uncharted, The Last Of Us and LittleBigPlanet possess FAR superior quality to DOTA 2 or any of the other bargain – bin garbage that you idiots grovel and fight over like starving rats. The trash that passes for an exclusive game on a dead, vermin platform like the PC can’t hold a candle to the games that the PS3 was producing, much less the PS4, how does that make you retards feel?

    Doesn’t matter if your shitty PC can play it’s shitty games in a 4K resolution at 110 fps, a shit game in a high resolution is still just a shit game, deal with it. You morons overpaid for a garbage platform with games that are worse than what the consoles were producing 6 years ago, laff!

    1. And how many hours of entertaining do you get out of Uncharted and The Last of Us? 12 hours total? I’ve played Dota 2 for 2000 hours over 3 years and I’m on the lower end of the spectrum. Don’t forget $120 vs $0.

    2. This guy is the embodiment of why I really want to see a campaign to get Parents to take PEGI/ESRB Ratings seriously.

      All that bullshit they make about drinking & driving, not doing drugs, they can’t waste some money trying to showcase how retarded you become when you expose yourself to CoD before you even learn the (completely & utterly pointless to 95% of the world) Pythagorean Theorem?

    3. You’re the moron comparing 3 PS exclusives to DOTA 2, LOL. You only used DOTA 2 because it’s so popular on PC. I though you console users only played games for gameplay, you want games to play right? You console users like attacking WoW, DOTA 2 and LoL to defend your Playstation exclusives and you can’t stand the fact that they’re way more playable in game time and make more money than your exclusives.

      Also, you created an account just to post your console drivel here.

    4. Huh? So you’re quoting Metacritic as your source? And you won’t even list which games you’re referring to. You only compare one PC game that was developed by modders and is Free to Play. If you’re referring to worse scores on PC games, all that should tell you is that PC players are used to a higher quality of game and not some watered down kiddy crap. That’s why they rate games more harshly.

      But enjoy your spoon fed EA/Activision re-releases of the same game year in and year out, and paying a premium for that same gameplay.

  26. When they wanted to sell their games on consoles, they claimed that all PC gamers are pirates. Now they want to sell Ryse on PC, and started to say bad things about consoles.

    I mean, 399$ is 399$, of course it’s dated, but Crytek’s behavior amuses me.

    1. Damage control for what console users though was so powerful and ended up matching a 2 year old mid-range PC spec. They simply have no clue, using old ideas about how consoles work because they don’t know anything about x86 and that consoles don’t use exotic custom hardware any more.

      PS4 and XB1 are only cheaper because of their cheap X86 hardware, not because console users want cheap. If the PS4 and Xb1 were £600, people would still buy it.

        1. The funny thing is there is no secret and ESRAM is turning out to be a right pain in the arse for devs just like the CELL in the PS3.

  27. Papers, Please has been on PC for awhile now…I friggin’ love that game 🙂
    It’s definitely not a console exclusive..and playing without a mouse just sounds like a terrible time.

    1. That just means PS4 is the only console to have it for a limited amount of time. It’s on PC too of course.

    1. I’ll just leave this here. yes it is in-game confirmed by ND themselves look it up. I dare you to find a character model that looks HALF as good as drake here. Take off your rose tinted glasses and smell reality.

          1. You are uvpoting comments on bullshots of uncharted 4? didnt uncharted 2-3 and ltou teach you anyhing? naughty dog downgrades

      1. Post real game shots not games that are not even out yet, LOL Crysis 3 was released before the PS4, XB1 dude. Also, that’s one character, I showed 3 in one shot, try harder next time.

      2. That teaser was a face and a backbround it was made by 1 person.

        Naughty dog is known to downgrade.

        Thats reallity fantard.

  28. Sony and Microsoft screwed up in this generation. It would have been wiser for them to keep a newer refined version of the Power PC based CPU (These are much more powerful than the 86 based ones in they are currently using), USE a much newer higher end GPU, then to make game development quicker, add something like a Tegra 4 processor (or one in the PS Vita) and support android style games. Consoles would have been much more powerful, fully backward compatible, and offered the possibility of a huge amount of Arm based games that could have been quickly ported to the system/s. All they did is give us lower powered higher priced crap, and pissed off IBM and Nvidia in the process.

  29. stuff we already knew, crytek gets ward for graphics (big surprise) consoles not being a PC (even bigger surprise)

  30. I appreciate your response but I will not attempt to rebut every point because my stance is well detailed and it will not change. Again, every platform has its inherent advantages and disadvantages. No platform is perfect. There are games that we all have access to and games that are exclusive to each respective platform. The fact that we have choices is all that counts. A gamer hasn’t any need to deride another gamer’s experience or choice simply because said choice or experience is different (different ? superior or inferior). Much of the commentary and banter from the PC side promotes otherwise and has been unnecessarily derisive and antagonistic.

    Ok. I’ll address a couple of your points as succinctly as possible.

    – “I don’t like consoles for far more legit reasons…” – That is just fine. You have a right to dislike whatever you choose to dislike just as much as console gamers have a right to enjoy what they choose to enjoy. To each their own…right? Also, I would suggest that you lay the politics aside and forget about manufacturers and publishers. They screw over gamers on all platforms.

    – “You can stream your PC games to your phone/tablet or Nvidia shield though so there is that you know.” But can you do that on a train and have a quality lag free experience. Handhelds and mobile rule this space. Period.

    – “Now I can see how you’re trying to be neutral…” Yes, I try to be as agnostic as possible but like every other human on this planet I do have my biases and preferences. I’m not perfect and that’s ok. You may consider me ignorant or unenlightened but I think you may have it wrong. I don’t get hung up on what others are doing nor do I go out of my way to make others insecure over their choices. I don’t try to exalt my experience above the experience of others in some kind of insecure, techno-fascist attempt to stroke my ego or oppress others. I simply accept individuality without stipulation. I know that PCs are awesome… wait for it… just as awesome as consoles.

    I know. Not so succinct.

    1. “I appreciate your response but I will not attempt to rebut every point because my stance is well detailed and it will not change.”

      Well then aren’t you just ignoring facts in favor of a biased and untrue opinion? Isn’t that the definition of stupidity? Also your stance was not “detailed”

      It’s like those people who still believe the Sun orbits the Earth and disregards science.

      “Again, every platform has its inherent advantages and disadvantages. No platform is perfect.”

      No one is arguing this but again I can’t see much if any advantages to a console over a PC for anyone that has the mental capacity of at least a 12 yr old

      “There are games that we all have access to and games that are exclusive to each respective platform. The fact that we have choices is all that counts.”

      Maybe in your little happy agnostic world but there SHOULD NOT be exclusives on any platform. The consoles are only alive because of exclusives, it’s a straight up marketing ploy to trap gamers into spending hundreds of dollars for their system when it shouldn’t be needed and all those people who fund this kind of business are just furthering it along. We don’t need the console industry anymore.

      “A gamer hasn’t any need to deride another gamer’s experience or choice simply because said choice or experience is different (different ? superior or inferior).”

      It’s not about being different, it’s about being dumb and not understanding exactly how your wallet is influencing other games and the industry as a whole because you just want to stay ignorant to the facts.

      “Much of the commentary and banter from the PC side promotes otherwise and has been unnecessarily derisive and antagonistic.”

      PC gamers are tired of the bullshit, can you blame us? No PC gamer is starting arguments. Shouting PCMR in a comment and a console gamer coming along and being pissed about it is not the PC gamers fault. It’s also not our fault if console gamers get pissed off being corrected for spewing misinformation.

      “You have a right to dislike whatever you choose to dislike just as much as console gamers have a right to enjoy what they choose to enjoy. To each their own…right? Also, I would suggest that you lay the politics aside and forget about manufacturers and publishers. They screw over gamers on all platforms.”

      No, not to each their own at least in this case. You’re trying to make light of the situation. The publishers and devs are the reason we get shitty buggy games and terrible ports. Gaming back in the day was a grand thing. Programmers were a passionate bunch of people that made games for the love of it, not the money. Now look at how shit the industry is since consoles have had their spotlight. This is why I support a lot of indie devs. Console gamers usually don’t have legit reasons as to why they like or prefer consoles.

      “But can you do that on a train and have a quality lag free experience. Handhelds and mobile rule this space. Period.”

      That really depends on your internet connection now doesn’t it? Hell anyone can install Pokemon on a smart phone or tablet and enjoy that too.

      “I don’t get hung up on what others are doing nor do I go out of my way to make others insecure over their choices.”

      That entirely depends if the choices others are making are hurting the rest of us and they are.

      ” I don’t try to exalt my experience above the experience of others in some kind of insecure, techno-fascist attempt to stroke my ego or oppress others.”

      And I’m not doing that, if console gaming didn’t harm the overall gaming industry as it does do you think I’d give two shits about what you choose to blow your money on?

      “I simply accept individuality without stipulation. I know that PCs are awesome… wait for it… just as awesome as consoles.”

      So awesome that they charge you out the ass for a worse experience overall, so awesome you have to pay to use the worst browser, so awesome you have to pay to use features that are free on any other platform, so awesome that the company locks you in by holding your games hostage, so awesome that they trick idiot consumers into thinking they’re getting free games when they’re just rentals, so awesome you have a limit to how much you can purchase, so awesome that if the network is down your whole console becomes a brick, so awesome that the system can give you errors and you can’t do a damn thing to fix it unless you send it in for two weeks. So awesome, much console.

      Why people fight so hard to stay ignorant is beyond me.

      1. That sure is a lot of writing and I will assume that none of it is nice. I’m not going to read it because it will most likely be a waste of my time. If I respond to your argument it will most likely be a waste of your time and It probably is already right? Lol. It makes no sense going around in circles with you. You know my stance. I know yours. We’ll both have to accept that there’s just one more person out there who vehemently disagrees with us. I wish you and I and more gamers like you could meet in the middle. I’m willing to do so. I’ve already said that PC games are awesome. If I had a gaming centric PC I’d play games that are fun and exclusive to the platform. I’ll play anything if it’s fun. I can’t see myself hating an assemblage of plastic and metal so strongly. A person like that would be daft don’t you think? You don’t need to respond to this… you probably won’t right? LOL

        Peace to you

        1. “I can’t see myself hating an assemblage of plastic and metal so strongly.”

          It’s like you didn’t read a word I said. It’s the companies, not the plastic that makes up the system that we care about.

  31. Seriously, I don’t understand why someone would buy a console. A PC is better at everything. I’m not even kidding, it is actually better at everything.

  32. Damn Console Fanboy’s are creeping out of the woodwork here, why get angry over a true statement, everybody has got their own choice on what system they play on and I respect that (it’s your choice) but if you know it’s a fact why sit there and try and defend that it isn’t?

  33. So this is the second time someone’s said that the ESRAM is too small on the Xbone in two days. Interesting.

    What now, Xbros?

  34. Clearly we all know that microsoft screwed over crytek sonow there just snapping back thats what happens when you make an “exclusive” xboxone game your comany goes to shit and your game doesnt sell and whatever deal you thought you had with microsoft just goes down the toilet

    1. You should see the Driveclub leaks from the Beta. It looks like garbage and wouldn’t look out of place on the PS3. The Sony fanboys are desperately trying to damage control it.

      8GB GDDR5 right? (Phahahahahahaha…)

        1. I laughed at it and some Sony tard is trying to post my IP info on another site.

          Funny and pathetic at the same time.

    1. This is what the PC babies tell themselves now? I think the hundreds of GOTY awards the Uncharted franchise has earned would beg to differ. Go back to your crib.

  35. But But……………….But that optimization its supposed to be 2 times more powerful then the hardware is over hickory poo

  36. So in other words, he’s right, you don’t own all that hardware, just like Derp who wouldn’t even post his CPU-Z validation from a simple app.

    1. I’ve got nothing to prove to some internet troll (who thinks I don’t know exactly who he is), look at his comment history ffs! I don’t troll like derp either, he’s another numpty who does my head in!

          1. So in other words you don’t have a PC, you’re a liar and use your comments to cover your own lies. I can post you my CPU-Z validation right now, not a problem but such a small thing seems to be a problem for you.

            So I’m asking you nicely, post your CPU-Z validation please.

          2. Oh you’re asking me nicely are you? I’m not going to be dictated to by a couple of fanboys on the internet who I’m not even on friendly terms with and who trolls my comments! You think it’s ok to tell people to kill themselves and worse do you? Because that’s what your buddy does(under his other account) You don’t believe me that’s you’re problem not mine!

          3. Why would you follow someone like that? “You compound the ‘PROBLEM’ so in other words you’re acknowledging what he is and what he does? Add to that the fact that you’re following him which would make you a part of ‘the problem’ would it not?

          4. I don’t follow anyone, I agree when I feel that I need to agree and no I don’t agree with some of the language on this site by certain people. Do you see me voting up all the time? No, only if I think it’s a good reply.

        1. And we both know why don’t we? HaHaHa The actions of a desperate butthurt troll! HaHaHaHaHa Go ahead, spam enough and you might gat banned from here too! HaHaHaHa

          1. Still waiting for that picture that shows you own all system and you are better than us troll.

            You dont have taht pic, btw why you upvote my comments?Someone is in butthurt rage and accidently clicks the thumb up button.

          2. a clown you say? you mean the comments that i called you a clown and you reported it and got removed.

            I now reported this comment so it will get removed too.

          3. Reporting your own comments now? HaHaHa Don’t you think there’s a remote possibility that someone other than me finds you annoying and reported you instead? Of course you didn’t because you have no imagination! HaHaHa Look at your comment history ffs, it reads like the ramblings of an angry butthurt child! HaHaHaHA

          4. No am reporting your comments.
            Also i checked your comment histroy it reads like a butthurt troll going around and pasting AHAHAHHAHAHAHAH desperarlty tring to hide how BUTTHURT that social reject is.

            Keep on being a social reject until you prove anything of the bs you are saying, then you will be trated as a troll by everyone.

            You got no friends, your acount is made just to troll, in conclusion you are pathetic and you should do something more productive with your time than trollnig.

          5. Do you feel better after getting that off your chest? HaHaHa Your grammar is atrocious(means not good)! Maybe you could spend your time improving that? Or was it because you were typing in anger again? HaHaHa I like how you think you speak for everyone too! HaHaHa

          6. ” Your grammar is atrocious”

            I speak 3 languages how many you speak grammar nazi? Just one? I am not suprised, all the social reject internet kiddies speak only one and thing they are heros of the internet.

            You talk about anger but you keep typing with CAPS and post AHAHAHh all the time.

            ” I like how you think you speak for everyone too! HaHaHa”

            I never said that, but the diffirence is i speak for some people here, you speak for NO ONE on ANY site. Seriously just a sad loner going around trolling and no one agrees with you. Must be pathetic making a acount after the guy who banned you thanks to impersonation on disquss.

          7. still waiting for that picture showing you own all platforms and you laugh at us who dont.

          8. Keep waiting because I don’t do what some internet nomark tells me to! I don’t seek your acceptance and don’t care what you believe! I’d never and have never laughed at anyone who isn’t fortunate enough to own all the systems they’d like to either so stop making things up! Anyway I’ve had my fun with you for now, you’ve served your purpose so I’ll be ignoring you again for a while but feel free to spam away, that is what trolls do after all! HaHaHa

          9. I am still waiting and until you prove that the BULLSHIT you post are true, then ill keep treating you like a troll.

            Wake up idiot you are a troll, everyone is laughing at you, you go around posting bs and trying to flame people.

            keep posting AHAHAHHAHA as if that is gonna hide the fact that you are BUTTHURT.

          10. Speaking on behalf of everyone again? I think your comments speak for themselves. They reek of anger and desperation!

  37. All I have to say is I have a high end PC and Xbox one, the reason I have a console is because I’m sick of buying PC games for them to have sudden frame rate drops , microstutter , occasional lag. Then spend hours adjusting config files and waiting for patches and so on. Then once I’ve got a game running OK, I’m then trying to turn up all the graphic settings to see what I can get away with without performance drops. So after 2 weeks of messing around I might start playing the game, and console ports like mass effect 3, no controller support.( no comment). So consoles are better for one reason and that is playing the game with no issues from day one, and I can’t even tinker if I wanted to.
    There called game consoles for a reason because they do a job and do it perfectly.
    Regardless of the 10% resolution loss.
    And that should only bother you if your playing on a 65″ TV.

  38. And please build a PC for $350 that can beat a console. And a controller you will have to buy extra. And HDMI cable which comes with console.

    I’m thinking nearer $600

    1. It’s not as simple as you stupid console users make out. PC’s cost more to build but costs are cheaper in the long run that consoles. Also, PC’s can do far more than just play games and media.

    2. If you’re going to factor in peripherals, then you have to factor in the games as well. PC games more than make up the difference.

  39. It depends on who you ask apparently. When a similar question posed to Assassins creed developer

    “DSOG: How close to a high-end PC are current-gen consoles?

    JT: At the very high-end, PCs have the edge: but you have to spend a lot more money to get there. I think for most people, the consoles are comparable to their PCs.

    1. Most people have business-class(cheap) PC’s with integrated graphics. Comparing a console to a standard person’s PC is calling it junk.

  40. “I’m sick of buying PC games for them to have sudden frame rate drops , microstutter , occasional lag”

    …..

    Do you check benchmarks at all? Because consoles are not stable, the framerate goes up and down like crazy. Its just like running a game on a pc.

    “There called game consoles for a reason because they do a job and do it perfectly.
    Regardless of the 10% resolution loss.”

    FACEFCKINGPALM.

    But they dont and you are clueless on that one.

    Watchdogs and skyrim have stutter on consoles as well, guess what you console users can do about it? NOTHING you have to wait hoping for a patch to fix it. Consoles were plug and play and reliable NOT ANYMORE.
