I'm a PC gamer and will stick with the PC. I do own PS3 though. If I had to pick between those two, it would definitely be PS4.
The PS4 will let you emulate PS3 titles, right?

When you can find (or build) a PC for $300-$500 that can run these games and offers the convience a console does, you let me know, OdanUrr. As HD said, I want to pop a disc in, hit start and play. I don't want to deal with system requirements and all of that mess. That, and I just don't like the PC community. The one for Xbox and PlayStation isn't great by any means, but there's a special kind of douchebaggery that runs rampant with PC gamers.

After the reveal of the Xbox One it looks like they tried to design a system that takes the least appealing aspects of both console and PC gaming (like prevention of used game sales and non-upgradable hardware), and instead of offering any really spectacular things to make up for that they added some Xbox eclusive drawbacks (forced Kinect). In combination with the TV stuff that simply won't do anything for folks outside the USA it's just a huge package of "why the **** should I even consider buying this?". I seriously doubt their exclusive games catalogue will be as overwhelmingly desirable as it would have to be to win me over.
So far it looks like if anything I'm going to stay a Playstation customer. But since I still have a lot of games for both PS3 and PC I haven't played and some quite promising Kickstarter games are going to find their way into my home in the future I guess I won't need to join the new console genration for a few more years anyawys.

Honestly the Wii U is the one I'm most interested at this point.
But I'm a PC

I also tend to borrow games from my sister from time to time. So, yeah. Screw that.

Good for you.

I assume you mean "convenience." What convenience are you referring to?
Yes, "convenience." I'm aware of the spelling of the word. I would have edited it earlier if I had the means, but I didn't. The fact you feel the need to point shows what kind of argument you like to present.
Like I said, the price is part of the convenience. PCs aren't really user friendly to the untrained, either, and I'd classify myself and "untrained". I have never played a game on PC (or even set-up or built one) in my life, and I'd like to keep it that way. Like I also said (which seems to be something I'll need to regularly repeat when I have run-ins with you), I can go out, buy a console, plug it in and play (after some small set-up). I don't have to upgrade my console once to stay up to date, which something you seem to think is a con. I like it. All of this is a matter of preference, after all.

Well, with the next-gen consoles you still need to install your games and disk space becomes a premium.
I'm aware. I'm going to assume installing on a console and booting up to play (along with tinkering with settings) isn't nearly as much of a hassle as it is on a PC.

I'm afraid that is not a PC exclusive (not to mention it's a rather offensive generalization).
Yeah, that's kind of why I said the communities on Xbox and PlayStation aren't exactly great, or did you conveniently skip over that part? "Douchebaggery" usually has an offensive connotation behind it, so I'm glad you were able to pick up on that. You're quite the perceptive one. That's the vibe most of the PC gamers I have met on here and other forums give off. "Condescending" is also a good word for it. Is that less offensive for you?

Only using GAIKAI if I remember correctly. There's no backwards compatibility. Though you will have access to PS1 and PS2 titles as well as the PS3 ones.

Actually, that's anything but good. Whereas the PS4 or the X1 might cost $500 in the US, it could easily reach thrice as much here.
Yes, "convenience." I'm aware of the spelling of the word. I would have edited it earlier if I had the means, but I didn't. The fact you feel the need to point shows what kind of argument you like to present.
It was actually an honest question, I was guessing you meant to say "convenience." There's no need to seek malice where none was intended.

Like I said before, that used to be an advantage with older consoles (including the 360 and the PS3) since their architecture wasn't remotely close to the PC. Thus, you were always assured that if you bought a game for a console it would always work whereas, in the case of the PC, you'd have to check your specs more often than not. With next-gen consoles adopting a PC-like architecture it seems to me this advantage will no longer exist so long as your PC shares similar or better specs to the X1 or the PS4. Playing a game strictly from the disc will no longer be possible although it seems you will be able to stream it until installation is complete.
I'm aware. I'm going to assume installing on a console and booting up to play (along with tinkering with settings) isn't nearly as much of a hassle as it is on a PC.
Yes, I do believe it'll still be easier to play a game on a console even with the install.
Yeah, that's kind of why I said the communities on Xbox and PlayStation aren't exactly great, or did you conveniently skip over that part?

I'm sorry you believe my attitude to be condescending, far from it, my reply was entirely factual.

If it's a free service, then it would be quite cool. Somehow I think one has to pay at least a bit if they want to play their old PS3 games that way.ibbikiookami wrote...
