Hahahahahahha!!! Oh my god… I know this is an old thread, but, by god, I didn’t know that there are so many idiots (by idiots I mean console users) inhabiting this poor planet.
Please, let me try to enlighten you… just give me a chance, PLEASE!!!
What is a console? It is a computer (if you disagree… you are probably dead, because you aren’t intelligent enough to breathe) used exclusively for gaming… and even at that specific domain, consoles are still more limited than PCs (as far as I know, strategy games, filthy mobas and high speed/accuracy shooters aren’t really being made for consoles)… next to a PC, gaming consoles are obsolete, much like religion next to science… not only are consoles only focused on one thing only… but they are still inferior to PCs even at that one tiny area of computation (limited fps and graphical detail, unnecessarily long loadings and installations)…
Now, you may ask “If consoles are so worthless and inferior, why are they still being made?”… Well, I guess Sony makes consoles because that is their only way to rival Microsoft (you don’t see too many games being made for Linux distros or Solaris), and Microsoft produces them because they have seen that there are enough idiots (surprisingly many, unfortunately) who will buy cheap-to-make hardware for some decent sums just because there are a few games that were written for that specific console (trivially, those games could be made for PCs )
I would like to think that there is more to life than gaming(sadly )… with a PC, you can do much… much more than just play video games (someone tried to do something more than play games on a ps3, but got sued by Sony… go figure)
To the poor wretched soul who was defending consoles with frightening fervor, having a console cannot stop you from pirating games… Sadly, a friend of mine who ,for some grotesque reason, owns an Xbox has a myriad of video games for the system… none of them legal. Pirating a game which heavily relies on online multiplayer doesn’t really pay off, so piracy isn’t the brightest option there. As for the tournaments, it doesn’t matter really. If there weren’t so many idiots who let these primitive platforms exist in the first place, consoles would just be a dark past, best left forgotten.
If this little sermon can’t help you see reason, you might as well slice your carotids lest all that magnificent matter be wasted on you insignificant existence
P.S. If a made any grammatical errors, please, let me know. T’would be much appreciated
