General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

But as a teen I played on PC and I had dozens of games that just wouldn't run despite my PC having the rights specs

user error tbh

thats the pc life, it can happen

I remember buying Hitman II, checking the box several times to make sure my PC would run it, asking the salesman about it etc. Went home, installed it, everything went well... but the game would not launch

 

[Canadian Dragon]

but generally speaking ya, if ur game isnt running on pc u either messed up some settings or your hardware is defective. the latter being no different than on console which also can be defective. lets not forget red ring of death

I get the appeal of PC but I have always been happy with my consoles since I got an N64

 

[Canadian Dragon]

either way, the days of games not launching at all on pc and other issues I would say are pretty far apart and rare these days. same on console its rare to have major bungles like that. plus the vast majority of pc games are optimized in a way that the shittiest pc and the greatest pc have options to run it. look at fortnite for example.

Thankfully I not really had to many problems. I think only one game wouldn’t play for me, and I can’t remember what one it was lmao. I think it was XDefiant. But it’s probably because I need to change some settings.

i was too until the latest gen - consoles just cannot keep up anymore

Only drawback I've ever had was the PS5 Controllers getting the joystick drifr

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Only game right now I want, I need a console for is the new college football game.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

and with exclusives getting more and more rare there just doesnt seem to be a point. id get a ps5 for the controller and a few games but to me its not worth the price tag of a mid range GPU that crushes its performance

[Canadian Dragon]
