PC gaming is doomed

It just goes to show any idiot can play a console and they are.

Wow ..

Among PC games, two titles sold more than 500,000 units, and 18 broke the 250,000 mark.

This means that Neither Doom3 or HL2 Broke the 1 million mark. Thats not good. It almost seems impossible.

thanks to that pile of excrement dubbed halo 2.

i dunno maybe im the minority console gamer. i have all 3 systems and a PC, but my console library is small no more than 10 games each for the xbox and ps2, my cube has more, but thats because i gave it to my kid, and hes got a bunch of games for it. out of the 30 cube games i have, 6 are mine

now my PC titles on the other hand... they vastly outnumber all my console titles combined and then multiplied by 3... i have so many, i have no room on my desk. i have to keep them in a box in the closet... makes it fun when i feel like playing something i havent played in awhile... gotta go digging.

I'd play more computer games if I was smart enough or rich enough to ensure they run on that heap of scrap I call my rig. I tell people who like Mechassault to try MW4 and see why I was dissappointed by MA both 1&2. However for those of us who dont know computers forwards and backwards there is a learning curve. I am a professional with a job that takes up 60+ hrs per week,I'll be back in school in May( Thats right call me Dr Race Bannon!) a husband and father and I wont even count the time spent in church or vollunteering. So when I have LIMITED time to play games thats what I do. I dont have hours to patch games and download drivers and cruise the forums for tips on how to get games to run. I dont think people who play console games are idiots; however I do think that type of thinking will assist PC games into going the way of the dinosaur.

I guess I just hope that there will someday be an easier way to enjoy the great games I have in my posession and cannot play (Rome Total War, Call Of Duty, HL-2, Farcry and yes even BCM)Consoles are convenient and fool proof (emphasis on the fool part)for the most part and are a poor but in my case neccessary substitute for PC gaming.

[Guest Grayfox]

ahh well, most of your PC games are awesome... but with a steep learning curve.

if only we had the johnny neumonic thing going id pipe the info into that thick skull of yours and youd be all set

like i said before, i may have few console titles... but the ones i do have are quality, not some mindless, fanboy, bandwagon crap... unless some of those are quality too

[Kevin Trotter]

How bout coming by and fixing it instead of spending all your time in my basement playing one of those console games you were squawkin about?
