Those of you who don't support the PC Master Race, why?

[Puplip]

Just curious.

There is no bullsht as a "master race" ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

The worst thing to happen to PC gaming in recent times is that phrase.

[You takin notes]

Because the whole "master race" thing is stupid.

I'm quite sure everyone with Steam should like the PC master race. :p

The only thing consoles have better than PC is a few exclusives. And PC still has more exclusives.

Better controls, The screen is further away, easier to use. Also they cost alot less. I use consoles and my experience (even though theres no Gmod :( ) Is alot better on console.

Myths About PC Gaming Debunked and How It Compares to Console Gaming[gaming-fps-mmogs.knoji.com]

Yes, you have stated you like gaming on both, but this article shows that the common claims are quite untrue.

Add in the fact that consoles now upgradeable with software (OS and drivers) and hardware (hard drives) and patching of games, it is no longer plug and play. Others above have stated other so called pluses to be quite untrue too.

Persoanlly I don't support it, because most people who say PC Master Race are elitists or just arrogant PC gamers in my opinion.

I play both on PC and on Xbox and both have advantages. Like someone already said, if you buy a console game you can be sure it works. You don't need to worry about your specs or your drivers, simply put it in and play. On the other hand PC has the advantage that you can buy cheaper games more quickly thanks to key sellers or Steam sales. You can get cheap console games, too by simply waiting for the price to go lower or buying a used copy, but it may take more time before the game has an appropiate price.

About the modding, yes that's a big advantage of the PC, but it becomes less and less important in my opinion. I'm a guy who enjoys AAA games the most, but almost none of them allow modding anymore, so my opinon is that it is a good feature of the game, but you can't barely use it anymore.

What, consoles? Depends on the game. But PC's can use controllers AND they can be plugged in to a TV and also played further away. So, PC's kinda in out on those two things too. Consoles are easier to use....that doesn't make them better in any way. That makes them dumbed down.

Not with a mac, and you have to spend a FORTUNE to get a gaming PC, and they can fail quite a bit. the thing is with PC's: it all digital. If you spill water on your computer, your going to have to go back and reinstall everything. and get a new PC or get it fixed. With a console, you still have most of the games, unless you get them digitally, but you still have the cased games and can still play them if your console breaks. you just have to fix it. Also they are not dumbed down, they are just alot more simple to use and are easier to navigate through.

1. Who does any type of serious gaming on a Mac? While there are quite a few games that support OSX, Windows is pretty much universally supported. When people talk about gaming PCs, they usually mean Windows machines.

2. "You have to spend a FORTUNE to get a gaming PC." Maybe you live in some country where PC parts are expensive, but my PC was maybe a little over $500 ($570 if you include the 2TB HDD I added recently) and it runs basically everything I want it to run on decent settings. I already had a copy of Windows 7 64 bit, so that isn't included in the cost.

3. Well, consoles also can fail, though you're right, on a PC you have to reinstall everything in the event of a catastrophic failure. Everything being digital has its advantages, though. For example, say your house catches fire. If you can save your PC (easier if you have a laptop or something), you will still have all your games completely intact. With a console, say goodbye to all of those discs. Hell, even if you can't save the PC, you still have all your games, just not installed.

4. PCs aren't particularly hard to navigate through, either.

Exaggerated Strawman version of how console users think you open a game on PC eredeti hozzászólása:

1. Open command line
2. Type "ax7510asdjn"
3. Input a 67 digit code
4. Input a 27 digit code
5. Program an application in Assembly to allow you to open a game
6. Play game
7. Game runs at 0.1 frame a second
8. Wait 2 years for a driver to download
9. Play games at a cinematic 30 FPS

How I open a game on my PC eredeti hozzászólása:

1. Double click on Games folder I have on my desktop
2. Double click on game icon
3. Play game

Though consoles certainly are easier to understand, as you have much less freedom when using them.

Ah, i do love the "if you don't agree with me, you're stupid" argument; especially by people trying to chastise others for using the same argument.

Yeah, the Master Race talk is dumb, but calling people "immature children" or "idiots" because they don't agree with you in thinking it's dumb, makes you just as dumb as them.

I also think Master Race talk is dumb too, and what you say is true as well but some people miss that one. Assumptions leads to problems sometimes.

That's because thinking is too hard for many people. You're too positive, i think assumptions lead to problems most times.

[Blingie]

Everyone who believes in "the master race" seriously needs to develop a personality and stop trying to be funny.

[wiktor]

We should play games simply for what they are.

I own an Xbox 360 and an Xbox One.I don't own a PS4 and I have a laptop which i use for games that don't require a good PC to run. I don't dislike the PS4 like most Xbox owners.

And I don't see why there should constantly be a war on which is better and which isn't

computers built purely for gaming are still just toys even if they're worth 2000$ ...

it's more or less just peoples being happy that their toy's is worth more then the other peoples toy's since they put more time and money in them , yeah I used the term toy's ... since computers are just that when they're used for entertairnment instead of any productive task.

I have a computers , it's not running all the games with great performance but it's still quite satisfy my need in term of entertainments ... , so even if PC master race was not even made as a joke I would not care for it at all , gaming for me is just a hobby that I like to spend time with when I don't have much to do.

Damn, a lot of replies in here. I can't keep up and have nothing good to add.

So much irony coming from this thread.
