Comments on: Is PC Gaming Dying? http://shefbase.com/games/2007/is-pc-gaming-dying/ Just another Shefbase.com weblog Tue, 07 Oct 2008 09:11:03 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=wordpress-mu-1.0 by: waynio http://shefbase.com/games/2007/is-pc-gaming-dying/#comment-70 Sun, 27 Apr 2008 23:38:39 +0000 http://shefbase.com/games/2007/is-pc-gaming-dying/#comment-70 Anyone who spent a fortune on upgrading their pc for crysis must be quite gutted not seeing 60+ fps at 1920x1200 max details, it should not have been released until 4th quater 08 i think, and assassins creed & gta iv coming out way later than console, console sales must be tons higher. by the time gta iv is on pc i would have probably lost interest in it after playing it on xbox 360, i'm a massive fan of open world gaming, can't stand linear games and all this quad sli nonsense bugs the crap out of me makes me feel pc gamers are gettin ripped off having all that power and nothing awesome to take real advantage of it all. sure looking forward to mafia 2 thou whenever that gets released the best thing that could happen for pc gamers is a legitimate emulator operating system which runs xbox 360 games perfectly with enhanced performance and a special usb dvd drive to run the games on, i for 1 would pay the same price as an xbox 360 for such a thing and sell my 360 i believe others would too, maybe i should start a petition up to try and get microsofts attention, i'm sure they could do it, the same for any new console as long as the specs are lower than the pc running it. it would be good to see what you guys think of the last part about an emulator Anyone who spent a fortune on upgrading their pc for crysis must be quite gutted not seeing 60+ fps at 1920×1200 max details, it should not have been released until 4th quater 08 i think, and assassins creed & gta iv coming out way later than console, console sales must be tons higher.

by the time gta iv is on pc i would have probably lost interest in it after playing it on xbox 360, i’m a massive fan of open world gaming, can’t stand linear games

and all this quad sli nonsense bugs the crap out of me makes me feel pc gamers are gettin ripped off having all that power and nothing awesome to take real advantage of it all.
sure looking forward to mafia 2 thou whenever that gets released

the best thing that could happen for pc gamers is a legitimate emulator operating system which runs xbox 360 games perfectly with enhanced performance and a special usb dvd drive to run the games on, i for 1 would pay the same price as an xbox 360 for such a thing and sell my 360 i believe others would too, maybe i should start a petition up to try and get microsofts attention, i’m sure they could do it, the same for any new console as long as the specs are lower than the pc running it.

it would be good to see what you guys think of the last part about an emulator

I dont think it's dead by a long shot. There are lots more avenues to explore. Myself, I’m an xBox 360 guy, but I was quite excited about being able to play cross platform with PC gamers.

The net based multi player communities are growing rapidly again. Unfortunately for the time being it seems to be based firmly in the Wow style RPG world. With more and more titles being released with this type of experience based player interaction I think we will see the WWW come alive with the PC based games once again. Think Call of Duty 4.

Yeah in some ways it is dieing like explained above but mostly it has evolved I think. The world of pc gaming has taken a turn and I think we will see great things beyond the horizon :) lol.

I think the last game I bought for the PC was Championship Manager 97/98...and it's still the best version out there! Good read, seems well researched and informed as well.
