lorddarthvik said:"4xFSAA ON all times" Man, they still dindt learn that AA only blures an image till your eyes pop out form being unable to focus.. One of the billlion reasons a sane person would buy a PC instead... Those games look allright, but a TV is still just a TV, it'll never display 1600*1200 pixels,
lorddarthvik said:While reading the XBox reviews I almost thought they made something good at Microshit, but it seems they'r still doing their way... Good thing they pointed that out that XBox doesn't work yet though, that'l give some advantage to PS3. But who cares, I got PC! LOL
lorddarthvik said:And you'd buy a typical HDTV capable TV for.. lets say, 500bucks? Just cause you got an XBox? Good for you
lorddarthvik said:Yeah I can see on the diff on the two pics, on the second one you can't see a thing cause its blurred up like looking through a pond of water... If thats what you want, good for you.
lorddarthvik said:Good for you, wish I had a new 3dcard reserverd LOL
lorddarthvik said:Someone who loves low res screens/was born with a console, will never understand the difference between Smooth and Blurred, until he will see the difference on his HDTV, where you won't need the AA to get SMOOTH lines. Thats why a monitor for a PC was/is far better throught the years, compared to tv.
lorddarthvik said:You'll get the point when you'll get your XBox, and you'll like thats for sure!
But, ya know, a PC still more worth its price.. Nope I' won't argue on that, you have to think about it yourself.
lorddarthvik said:Nope,I ain't in minority, I just know how a nice high rez image looks better then an AA-d TV screen-rez image (non HDTV of course, as that is still rare in the world)
This is some strange logic - if console games were worse, why would there be more and more need for them? Similarly, if complex PC games are what everybody wants, then why doesn't anybody buy complex flight sims any more? Game developers don't create demand - they react to it. The industry doesn't think people want something - they know. That's what they've got market research for.lorddarthvik said:Yep, sad but true You know why? Mostly casue of the need for more and more console games Cause the industry thinks that people like the "more simplifed/clean" games, wich tranlates as Primitve.
Happy Camper said:As for the P.C. vs Console argument, if you're going to buy a P.C. soley for games then you're wasting your money, as consoles can do a similar job for much less money. However, if you also use your P.C for surfing the net, e-mails word processing, video editing, sound editing etc. then a P.C. seems like a much better choice. If you don't do any processor intensive tasks other than gaming, then it makes sense to have a cheap slow P.C. and a console. So really, it's a bit pointless arguing over which one is better.
lorddarthvik said:I can use it for faaar more things then an XBox1 or PS2, and the games cost around 35-60 bucks instead of 100. Then those can be modded/changed the way you want it, wich makes it more vaueable over a console game. Yes, I converted our prices, and an XBox game costs 25000ft-28000ft wich is roughly 100dollars. while PC games range from 7500ft to 13000ft. Its all about the numbers now... Then, if I want to enjoy the console, I'd have to buy a new HDTV! 2000dollars for a TV, just to play? makes no sense yet. Later, when the TV broadcastingwill be HDTV all over the world, it'll worth it of course. Untill then,i'll wait before I get neer anything that has "consol" marks on it
lorddarthvik said:Man, thats right. And you'll cry for the new one after the 3rd year casue PC will evolve while you can't update you Consol to the same level. It's up to you wich path you take.Yep, you will spend more, but you'll enjoy i more probably. I'll leavw this argument here. Both sides have future!
