Weren't you the clown that was literally crying the other day about the 3rd person view? Enough said, i'm finished with you now as i have no time for clowns. You're now on the ignore list.

Steam has an offline mode too. Updates are only forced if you're online...

I liked that one

Edit: Some people work all day behind the computer... they don't want to sit behind it in their spare time right?

Ive been feeling more and more that gaming PC's are a complete waste of money. I'll likely be doing most of my future gaming on console as well; consoles are cheaper and far less likely to have stability and compatibility issues considering their uniform hardware and the fact that most games are being built specifically for them and ported to PC nowadays. There's VERY little appeal in being a PC gamer now. Diablo 3 is the last PC exclusive I'm looking forward to right now and I'd need only a fraction of the computing power I have to run it effectively.

I don't think he was putting down PC users, he was putting down PC users that put down console users. Which is the usual sort of argument this kind of thread will turn into.

This is why I play on consoles

Oh god I haven't played a pc game since like ten years ago, the pc I have now I only ever turn it on to download tv shows etc, which I then put on a flash drive and stick in the tele. I absolutely hate PC's with a passion, just such horribly annoying devices to use, Windows seem to make every single task seem like a chore and a hassle to do.

My current pc does have a hdmi port so I probably could play Skyrim in it, but it's not something I would ever want to do. My pc doesnt go straight to the game, have to wait for windows to fart about doing its stuff before you can even do anything at all. But even the logistic would put me of, do people still sit in front of like titchy little 27" pc monitors while gaming?. Because I could never do that so the pc would have to be moved so I could hook it up the tele so I had a screen suitable for gaming, but then where would I balance the keyboard and mouse on my chair/sofa. I don't get it, can you pc gaming post some pics of your setup so I can visualise this.

Surely you guys don't play Skyrim on a 15” laptop?, yeah I know you get cool mods but playing a game like Skyrim (ie one that can last you 300 hours) sounds like torture on the eyes, what do you do, play Skyrim for a few hours, charge the laptop, play for a bit more, charge some more. Also how does surround sound work on a pc?, can you even connect your pc to your home entertainment system?, if you can it sure won't be as simple as the one optical cable that's needed on the consoles.

Such a silly thread this, ordinary Joes will always go for the console option, they want to chat with their mates while playing to compare chevos or whatever, they want to switch the console in sit down and be playing within straight away they dont want the hassle of a pc or the expense of keeping it updated every year in order to run the latest titles well. Pc gaming is only for the hardcoe few, those who must have the ultimate in graphical performance, it will always be a niche market compared to the consoles.

You mean people still go to stores and listen to sales people when they buy PC's???


Kidding...

Because there isn't a Mac version? Besides, I already own an Xbox so that means I can use a controller and not a keyboard and mouse --- that alone is enough reasoning for me to get it for Xbox

You can easily use a controller with the PC game. Skyrim has an option in settings for a plug and play Xbox controller.

Hahaha, yes, this too!

Really? I play the PC version of SKyrim (with an xbox 360 controller) on my TV all the time. I can do it with my monitor too since it's 27 inches.

cant belive this thread is still active.

FORGET THIS THREAD.....THE GUY WHO CREATED IT HASNT EVEN LEFT ANY FURTHER INPUT


CLEARLY A TROLL AND WE ALL FELL FOR IT

Ah, but we had a good time in the end didn't we?

There are plenty of reasons why people use one platform or another.

And there are plenty of other websites out there where you can engage in platform wars to your heart's content.
