I mainly play first person shooters and passionately hate the mouse and keyboard.

Sure it might be BETTER but only because it moves the player impossibly fast, very few human beings can turn that fucking quickly let alone acquire a target. Its like all games are stacked with Jerry Miculek as all players.

Plus you can't control your movement speed, play racing games, jet simulators etc.

The only good reason to be a console gamer is to make sure you don't miss out on exclusives or superior ports. Yet these things are only found on console because everyone else is too idiotic to stop giving their money to middlemen and just build a PC instead. But what can you do. tho Input devices aren't exactly exclusives much, OP.

Idort > PC > partisan console children.

I'm poor and pc retarded. I can't build shit, or really know how everything flawlessly goes together, so I'd end up having to get professionals to build it anyways and I've done it before, it's not fucking cheap. I'd much rather just shell out $500 and get something that plays games decently for 5-7 years

400 bux, the cost of a console, and you could have a PC with top of the line (2-3 years ago) hardware.

You can even pirate windows and games if you really want.

Hell my computer is outdated as fuck and I got no problems.
>>
>>375668382
What're you talking about anon? All I have to do to launch a game is double click an icon
I also have a switch that goes from my monitor to my 4k tv and can easily play games on the couch when I so choose
Gamepad isn't a problem either. Dropped 12 bucks on a USB thing that connects up to 4 wireless 360 controllers to my pc

It takes seconds for me to launch a game and play it from the couch, I'd argue it's faster than waiting for a console to start up and signing in and going through the menus

I'm a full blown idort, but I just shitpost and play Hearthstone on my computer these days. I don't see myself upgrading my rig for a long time. Best exclusives PC has to offer these days are kickstarter indies that don't need power to run. Bought the Switch and got money stashed for the Scorpio. Can't wait.

>>375667665
I can't afford PC parts. You can say "But the console is $999" but it isn't if you're pulling it off of Craiglist or Gamestop, used. For every console I can buy, I can buy ONE computer part, and I'll need something in the range of 6 computer parts to make a computer function. Probably more than 6.

Also, I find no help in PC communities. If I have a simple question with an implicitly simple answer, asking it will get me called a fag and told to get lost. Alright, good, totally want to be in this clique.

It was a dota 2 match where a Korean kid and Russian were screaming at the top of their lungs and then the next match a Brazil guy spammed JAJAJAJA while running his pudge into towers at the start of the game. Region-locked servers are a blessing I really can't give up at this point.

I played FPS on PC for ages and actually was considered a great up and comer. I had some esports organizations approach me but because I wasn't 18 yet I couldn't really get into any contractual obligations. I developed severe problems in my wrist and could not control the mouse properly anymore, the pain paired with it was excrutiating as well.

I have now switched over to console and casually play games on it since it's easier on the wrist.

Most retards with keyboard/mouse are gimping themselves anyway by having super high sensitivity and moving the mouse an inch to do a 360. The proper way to use a mouse is low sensitivity and leave yourself a big ass space to move the mouse around. You should have to move your arm from the elbow to turn around 180, not just flick your wrist. And really, you can move your arm almost just as fast as flicking your wrist to turn, you're much better off leaving the entirety of your wrist to precise aiming in a certain direction.

Plus your eyes are dead, your usually 6 inches from the fuckin screen, every pro gamer has fucking glasses from millions of specs of electrons being blasted over their retinas half a day at a time.

All PC's eventually turn into slow unusable pieces of shit, and this is when you don't even play games on them.

What about "Unexpected erroe: ue", that shit ruined tribes for me for years. Not to mention all the .dll you have to hunt down. How much fucking anti virus software's do I even have to get. Oh its just viruses it doesn't get spyware removed and if I want worms and Trojans gone FUCK YOU

i agree, but there are no good serious FPS games really anyway since battlefield is nothing but rehashed cuck garbage. CoD and titanfall are actually more fun than battlefield games now and are more movement based which makes it easier with a controller in a lot of ways, and a lot of games have autoaim, and GTA V has autoaim servers specifically for gamepad users, RDR 2 will likely too

The mouse lowers the skill ceiling. Literally anyone can point and shoot with a mouse.

Using a controller takes actual skill. Also much more eye hand coordination and reflexes. I wonder if a top console team were made to fight a top PC team on PC and given a week to prepare would stomp the shit out of the PC team.

My main and only reasons is shooters. I LOVED playing PC shooters. But anything and everything online I stopped playing on PC because of the blatant and non stop cheating, mods and kids high on trucker pills who don't blink. I'll play fallout 4 on pc sure and games needing a mouse/point and click games. Even play a bunch of sim games, Elite Dangerous, even the Sims 4. Everything else on consoles and I mean EVERYTHING.

I got Titanfall 2 on PC since TF1 was good. 3 out of 5 matches are filled with modders and hackers. Funny thing is you call them out on it in game and suddenly their magic aims goes away like they turned it off. Picked up for consoles, even with a controller I'm MVP every match it's a joke.

I really enjoyed Killzone 2 and 3 multiplayer and Battlefield Bad Company 2.

Speed in FPS games can always be changed whether on console or pc.
You are supposed to start turning it up after you start getting good
>Plus you can't control your movement speed, play racing games, jet simulators etc.
Just connect your console controller to the PC

i just can't get over how irresponsible and jusy how bad /v/ (nu-/v/?) is at management. PCs are factually cheaper in the long run + there is no paid online + games are dirt cheap and they go on sale often

consoles -- i have a PS4, too -- are mostly just a 1st world, instant-gratification luxury. poor people in 3rd world shitholes just cannot keep up with console/console game prices, and they know it will be obselete, while you can keep all your games on PC in one place without having companies throwing out new gens

I mainly play fighting games these days. Unfortunately, fighting games are kinda dead on PC and locals run PS4s. For good reason though, lugging around PS4s is less of a hassle than lugging around PCs.

On occasion though, I do play shit like Arma or Project Reality and that's the kind of experience you can't have on a console.

true, thankfully it can still run flash games. whenever I try league of legends I freeze mid match however

>>375667665
honest question here;

What exactly is wrong with just plugging your PC into your HDTV, then using a controller and playing games from your couch, just like a console?

Doesn't it give you the best of both worlds?
Doesn't it nullify the argument that exists for consoles?
What am i missing here?

For singleplayer that's okay, in multiplayer you may get wrecked.

I'm not exclusively a console player, but I do own one. I'd never play an FPS game on console, but the reason I have one is largely simplicity, especially in respect to travel. It's just a lot easier to transport a relatively light console and a couple cords than it is my PC, and for local co op games I prefer the medium too.

Obviously an htpc build would do the same, but eh. That said, consoles would be a lot better if Sony and Microsoft implemented quality control standards, I.e. games must adhere, at minimum, to 1080/60FPS, even if graphical quality has to suffer.
>>
>>375667665
Because PCs cost literally 200 trillion dollars and can only run Undertale, a cheap rip-off of a far superior console game from 4000 BC. Meanwhile consoles have 300 quadrillion exclusives, each with reality-bending graphics and only cost 3 cents, which can written off on your taxes.

consoles nowadays are very similar to PC's in that you have to install, games come glitchy as hell etc, probably one of the reasons why I love playing on portables (3ds,vita,switch) nowadays, you don't have to install games, and most of the time games come out just fine at launch

agreed

i wish consoles would have stuck with what truly made them good. internet capability on them was just one aspect of cancer.

You know you can plug a controller into your keyboard, right?

I have N64, SNES, PS3, PS4, and Xbox 360 controllers with USB ends that I can plug in and play whatever I want.

Western games are almost always shit though. Last good one was Doom and before that Witcher 3. So why play on PC again if most of the good games are shit ports?
