The future of PC games

[awalwang]

More PC games are becoming game console games... I wonder when the PC will become useless. The game systems will have the PC already in them.

I know, it really stinks. That is probably what will happen, awalwang. The PC won't become ENTIRELY useless, it'll become useless in the form of games until all the PC games are gone. This is really depressing.

The PC WILL die. See, all the modern game systems even have Internet!

I hope that the game for PC will never die. How do you play a MMORPG or a strategy/gestional game with a console?
And for PC there are lots of very good games like the TrackMania series and lots of FPS.

[awalwang]

Yea. But game consoles will start to take on more of the PC role.

[Midtown-Madness-2_Kid]

Me too. It is true that all the modern game systems have internet, but they don't have the other stuff that comes with a computer. The game systems are starting to cost more than a computer! Like, the PS3 is around $350-$425! You can get a new computer for like $299.99. The fact that the computer has a possibility of going out of business is very surprising and depressing.

Don't think this: the PC games won't never die. The PC system is always better and powerful that console.

[Midtown-Madness-2_Kid]

That's the spirit! The computer WON'T die because so many people use it for non-gaming purposes. What will happen to the people who aren't gamers that need computers for work, what will happen to them? The PC won't die in our time period, I am sure of that. The computer will die when all the electrical stuff is gone.

A gaming computer (if you want to have an average one, which you should get) is more around $600-$1000 (if you think that's expensive check out the best ones, which are thousands). The best game console is $350 (the Xbox 360), so game consoles really are cheaper, with the exception of the Playstation 3. The $300 one is supposed to not be very good compared to the original, which is about $750.

Games coming out for the PC won't stop. There are PC only games, like Crysis and such.

[awalwang]

Gaming computers? Oh, you mean Entertainment computers.

[Midtown-Madness-2_Kid]

No, I am sure he means gaming.

[awalwang]

Oh. Hmm, I've never heard of them before. Entertainment is like movies and gaming, so I thought...ah, well.

[Midtown-Madness-2_Kid]

Yeah, its okay. Entertainment, as you said, is moves and so-so gaming. Gaming computers are made fror pure gaming, best results,, fastest computing, best everything! Except, power usage.

[HummersRock]

By 'Gaming Computer' (and the price range I gave) I meant average to above average. Average to above average can play games from this year, although they mainly do all graphics at medium or lower (in some cases maybe higher).

Real Gaming computers are the thousand dollars ones, that do what Midtown-Madness-_Kid said.

[awalwang]

Oh, now I get what you mean.
