    But do you hear what you are saying? Everyone needs to either play on worse than console settings, which argues why does hardware matter, and even then on pc everyone still gets inconsistent game rendering results. It is inconsistent for such games where you will lose over it. The computers internet connection, input device quality, settings, what else the computer is running. I turn mine way down but there will even then be people losing due to it and it bothers me even if i am against this people.

    Trophy, just stop xD you're trying to argue that consoles are better to a bunch of PC players which isn't going to end up well.

    Sales don't lie. Since Atari, consoles sell more. The sheer volume of people obviously shows there is something people find better about them. Its numerically sound to say there is no flaw in consoles compared to pc, just pros and cons. Pcs will be better when they sale better.

    Uhhh, source?

    I'm fairly sure PCs significantly outsell consoles.

    I'm talking about a game where things can change in a split second, where literally nothing is random or luck-based and a game with an extremely competitive community. If we're talking about Quake, yes, you do need a top notch mouse (btw you can get a top notch mouse for <10 bucks on ebay, search for wmo), you need to make sure you get 125 fps at all times and you need a stable connection.

    But, you're talking about Call of Duty. A game that's made to be as random as possible and to make player skill as irrelevant as possible. Not to mention, in CoD you're playing on a random server in a random pub against random people (99.99% of whom probably haven't got a clue about good hardware or configs) who you're never gonna see again. Why care how good you do?

    CoD xXSSkillllllzXXxx is the global unit for e-peen measurement. Didn't you get the memo?

    I'm pretty sure PCs outsell consoles. Because everyone who has a console probably also has a PC. Because people who don't have a console also probably have a PC. Because PCs do vastly more than play games, but even an average one will be able to play a good deal of stuff.
    Out of interest, when did you become such a loud sexist PC hater? I've only noticed these posts of yours coming up in like the last week or two.

    uhhwut?

    Why assume i hate pcs when i an sticking to gaming off one, or am sexist when i am glad to see women not just stick to the generic farmville or mideval mmorpg?

    Like i said in another post, i am doing nothing but supporting, other people are interpreting it as being against their lotus... i just don't particularly like pc elitism, ps4 elitism, or the narrow margin of females who game past generic cod or minecraft or farmville.

    Why did that strike a chord with you? You said you don't play farmville or cod, and at least wow is a solid game, albeit i don't play it.

    I really would have much more respect for anyone who plays magic the gathering, more so farmville.

    The sales have spoken.

    Wii was the superior console last gen.

    Obviously. It has SSB.

    A console with Smash is inherently better than other consoles because it has lasting value.

    The fact is you've said many times that you are glad when women don't, because you truly believe that the only games we play (yes, I'm aware I come under a seperate subcategory) are social and casual cow clickers.
    Your above quotes post also shows you are very much a console elitist. It doesn't matter if you say you aren't if you're saying things like
    "Its numerically sound to say there is no flaw in consoles compared to pc"
    When there are MANY.

    First, no, i said from post one that it is a shame that it seems a majority play cow clicking. Id rather the games not exist at all, not the people. Sorry jbeetle. I praised one side and it was misconstrued that i was against a group?

    Secondly, is and can there be such thing as a console elitist? I've never even heard of that, and it somehow feels grammatically incorrect. Again, i defend the explicit reason why consoles serve a purpose against those who want to replace all consoles with pcs and make the world a better place, and suddenly it becomes not about defending consoles and instead about attacking pcs?

    I think i am about done here, i am not even sure if you guys are serious anymore.

    You ever seen the MNC 360 section? There was a phase a few months ago where erryone there was suddenly all up in people's grills about 360 master system n ****. I don't think PCs are perfect, I actively use my Xbox (the original more than the 360 as of late because annoyingly the newer system breaks more) because it serves a different purpose and has different games,
    You though literally said consoles are unarguably better than PCs, and that there is NO downside to Console vs PC, which just isn't true. They're inherently closed systems, they lack as thriving an indie game scene, there's no possible customisability, mods are not a thing, and KB&M are just better implements for gaming once you've gotten proficient on both that and controller (I played consoles only for yeaaaars, I was very good at using them and now I just find pads really inaccurate and clunky compared to PC)
