    His point is that consoles are much less capable than pcs for high end games.

    You should get into 3d graphics to justify that cost in cash (plus your higher electric bill)

    You'd actually be able to max out all the cards raytracing some teapots.
    "...raytracing tespots"



    Its nice not having to fiddle with graphical settings, though. Any game you buy, you just max them out and roll at 60+ fps. Supreme Commander 2 demo was cool for that. Crysis is awesome for really pushing the system.

    But really, you guys are right.

    I should get a second display at least.
    You laugh, but I invite you to watch this:

    http://vimeo.com/7809605?hd=1

    I believe that's rendered with an ATI Tesla.
    actually raytracing is 7-10 years in the future if we are speaking real time 60 fps +.
    Any gpu in the following 5 years will get raped by voxel based algos wit raytracing/raycasting. Nvidia got a raytracing engine super optimez on crazy qs => 1 fps.... and u know dat shyt is cooked.

    I don't care about gaming enough to give a about a higher framerate.

    I care enough about it that I resent being condescended to by jackasses who can't wrap their heads around the prior sentence possibly being true. But whatever, your collective arrogance is nothing new.

    sons a console is much more economically viable.
    Sad 2 say it but u need a pc only if:
    - you work on it
    - you a gamer and you play pc only stuff u a graphix
    - you work on it


    @ balli: son a console a fine. Furthermore u can tinker wit it and get finesse control wit mouse/kb special inputs. Thang is games 4 consoles (not xbox) dont implement mouse/kb inputs.

    PC gaming is dying quicker than Arcades, deal with it.

    Ah, 2 links = proof. Odd, that.

    I also find it interesting that "MMO" is a separate category. I'm sorry, that suddenly doesn't represent PC gaming?

    Also, game sales fell last year across the board. Does that mean console gaming is dying too?

    I really don't care about the whole console vs PC thing, I just recall seeing those articles a while back, and I thought posting them was relevant.

    All that said, consoles game sales clearly make up for over 50% of the market vs PC's roughly 25%. A dip in sales of as much as 20% is much more felt in the smaller market, no doubt about it.

    Ultimately, I think there will always be a PC market for most AAA les.

    But that very chart shows MMORPG players as separate from PC gamers. It also includes DS and PSP users in "console gamers", which is very odd to me. If you assume the split between the PS3 and the 360 are even, subtract the DS and PSP gamers (since no one would ever call them "console" in a pie chart with a "mobile" slice), and then add the MMO section to PC gaming, it stands to reason that PC alone is bigger than either console by a substantial margin.

    It also should be called into question on whether or not they are getting their sales numbers from all available sources. There are dozens, perhaps hundreds of websites that you can buy and stream games from, where as with console you're restricted to A) retailers or B) the respective sales market of each system, be it PSN or Xbox Live.

    The angle I'd personally take. So many PC gamers pirate and this is often cited as "lost sales" by the conglomerates. Factor in these huge amounts of extra sales, just for the mainstream games and I think the equation would be lopsided in PC gaming's favor. This is, of course, including MMO games.
