There's literally a hundred reasons to get a ps4 pro over the xbonx. I can't believe they're gonna end the year with just Forza 7(!) for the next 4 months. The switch at least can be played on the go.

I'm having a new dilemma with my xboxox pre-order in that every fall game that I was interested in seems to be a disappointment and I may not have anything to play on it. Don't have a Bone currently.

SW Battlefront beta is bunk, AC Origins looks like a janky mess with Bloodborne wannabe combat, I can't do Destiny at 30fps anymore and it sounds like Bungie hosed up everything I enjoyed anyway, so it's really just down to Wolfenstein 2 at this point. And I guess South Park... can't wait to see Cartman in FOUUUUUUUUR K

At some point PC players are gonna realize I'm owning them in RS Siege with a controller and I'm gonna have to move on.

None of those are exclusives and you said you had a PC so why are you buying an X? I'd you didn't buy a bone by now you really don't want it. It's not like any hot new game it on the horizon.

Good thing I held off on Gears of War 4 until the X comes out, these enhancements sound awesome.

None of those are for the multiplayer which is astounding as the single player was the worst of the series and was quickly forgotten by everyone that played it. I swear they couldn't mishandle Gears of War worse than they have. I'd rather it be dead at this point.

The only way possible to get a popup driver update is to not cut your computer on for days. Like do you not use your computer? It certainly won't minimize the game, I haven't seen that since before geforce expirence. Also driver updates are the same as those long rear end console updates.

It's always the guy that somehow has the money to buy a top tier rig but isn't smart enough to update drivers, or uses the infamous broken port of Arkham knight as an example of anything, or can't figure out that maybe they patched GTAV in the months he didn't play it. It's such a waste.

At least Microsoft doesn't ship broken, non functional games.

In general but there's a lot of older PC games that are close to impossible to get to run on modern systems. Including ones that Steam still sells.

A majority of games that's worth the time is on GoG or for games like NOLF are easily found and have user patches to play. I'm playing though it currently just fine in wide-screen and everything. This just isn't that true unless you find some obscure game you're not gonna really play anyway.

That's what blows me about BC, people ask and ask and when it happens nobodys playing that poo poo anyway. Who really asked for BC Jade Empire or KotR in the year 2017 like any PC can't run it better and smoother and be gotten vastly cheaper.

It's not even like the games are lost forever, they're still playable on PS3 and 360. I hook them up all the time to play JSRF and the Jak collection.

Then you get stuff like the Bayonetta ports where all 3 console ports have their own problems and the only true way to play is the PC one.

Before the PC remaster the 360 was the definitive way to play Bayo, it was actually one of the best things about that system.

It was definitive by default. It still had frame drops, screen tearing, and was blurry and ugly as hell. On xbone it has delay issues.

I've brought the game like 6 times between 4 ports and played the poo poo of it. Some of that might not matter to casual players but in games like that where your gonna be looking at it and playing it til your eyes bleed its really annoying. Compare to DMC4 where it is pretty much perfect on any system and the only advantage PC has is mods and higher framerate

Disc is always way slower than me than installing full digital version, enough so that it's a big motivator to just go all digital.

That would be feasible if GCU and Amazon eidnt exist. gently caress paying full price for most games today.

For the record Xbox is way faster than PS4 in downloads. My problem is Xbox won't download some game updates in the background and every title update won't auto download. I go days without playing and come back to a title update that takes forever. On ps4 its already downloaded while in rest mode and is quick to install.

I haven't noticed any screen tearing in PUBG, and that's the one thing that can make me lose my cool about a video game.

As long as I'm not killed because of the framerate, mid-20's framerate is acceptable in an Early Access/Game Preview game.

I am killed for all kinds of reasons that aren't framerate.

Some of you are like the Princess And The Pea except for instead of your princess assess its your eyeballs and peas of two different kinds.

You're right that this is a real deal early access game microsoft brought because they needed something for December. I'm sure the devs don't want people to play the game in its current state but it says alot that people are still loving and playing it regardless.

I personally am gonna wait until it's more stable. Hell the early round rubberbanding is still an issue on PC and that's my biggest irk with the game.
