do pc gamers have anything to worry about regarding next gen

[kapoaira]

With the announcement of the ps4 i was wondering if someone a little more clued in than me could help me understand the sort of specs pc gamers will need to have to keep up with consoles.

Are pcs already able to do what next gen can do? and are we lookingt at a whole new bunch of games that will utilize a pcs strenght to its fullest and shower us with glorious eye candy.

I ask this as from what i can see consoles are looking more and more like pcs within their design. Sure they still have specialist gpus but gone is the cell cpu making coding less tricker for the ps3 al least.

anyway im rambling any input is greatly appreciated thanks all.

By the time consoles hit next gen, pc would be +1 gen. (nvidia titan and w.e. crap ATI is making) PC gamers have nothing to worry about, in fact if you buy a 7970 or GTX 680 today, you may be set for the entire lifespan of the next gen of consoles. (assuming you don't mind playing on low/medium in 5 years.)

The Gaming Industry via Computers have absolutely nothing to worry about because they're here, organised and established even before the gaming console existed. Matter of fact gaming consoles would never have existed without the computer.

So as long as there are gaming companies on PC then no.

PC gamers always need to worry about consoles. Consoles have most quality titles.
Graphics-wise, no need to worry. In like 2-3 years, pc games look much better than next gen consoles.

Please stop, pc doesnt have any good games besides multi-platforms.
Sure, half life is nice, but if that is your only pc treasure. Then I seriously pity pc gamers.

Opinions, every has it. I can as easily say the only thing that was ever good on the console was uncharted and the rest was utter jank. See I can have opinions too.

Uncharted wasn't even that good!
Just look at all these games > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_3_games
And this isn't just all. There are countless of games. And a huge variety of genres. When you look at PC gaming, all I can see is call of duty, call of duty, hey. a cute cartoonish call of duty, call of duty, call of duty and more call of duty!! MOSTLY SHOOTERS!!!

Most of those games are already on pc and if they are not they are likely some japanese JRPG nonsense.

Also all I saw was crappy sports games such as NBA, NHL, TIger Woods golf etc and about 50 variants of Rockband.

I would give you a list of pc games, but no servers can handle it. List is so big with so much variety that it would crash the Valve server.

We were here before the consoles.
We are still here during the consoles.
We will be here after the consoles.

I always love how the PC/Consoles dilemma is always presented as a dichotomy. When in the real world, they overlap pretty much. PC gaming does not forbide one to playing on a console and viceversa.
If PC and console market were to worry about something, it would be about Mobile Gaming. And that's a field where consoles have far more to lose than PCs (Specially portable consoles)

I have a life so I don't need to live life vicariously through the GTA characters.

Good for you, now go to your clubs and do unimaginable things to those filthy perverted girls there. Don't forget to pick some diseases or to life your whole life on debts! I'll be looking at you from the other side of civilized human race.

Nah I rather help find the cure for cancer by letting my high powered do protein folding. I like long walks on the beach and enjoying the sights of nature. Your outlook on humanity seems quite grim and offensive, you should see a doctor.

Deleting your post won't do anything, I already quoted them.

No, that's illegal. I can see how technologically uninformed console users that knows nothing about pc can make that assumption though. No offense taken.

Please give me links of "accomplishments" of this protein folding. The logic behind protein folding is a terrible lie.

Come back and tell me how it's a lie :)

I would provide a more scholarly source, but it's not appropriate in a layman discussion. Not to mention it may confuse you.

I won't read things on wikipedia, its all a lie. Created by governments to keep humans at bay. Just look at all those words that nobody would use in the page. It's a scam to make it look "genuine".
