You guys still don't get the fact IGN had absolutely nothing to do with the list. This is Readers choice

I didn't think I had to specify that I knew that.

You are correct about everything else you said. There is every reason why console games rate higher than PC games and it is hugely due to the fact that consoles enjoy better developer support over PC's and are bound to have better titles in the long run.

lol....no console games rates higher then Pc titles, Consoles are all about quantity NOT quality(a reason why take so less time in production)....no matter the flaws, it will sell in enuf quantity to generate "acceptable" profit. So the focus is only on "time" when producing games.

PC game = Quality over Quantity
Consoles = Quantity is not compromised by Quality

No better then a "popcorn" movie..which are made just to generate some money (gud example is bollywood), but in turn get a sequel since the developer got things worked out in the first try...more like a development fluke.
One the reasons why console have many "sleeper" hits...since they start out on "less risk" platform. Nothing more then a good speed sketch....keep making them in bucket and eventually u get one that's a killer. ( A process that PC gaming has lost over the years & a reason why truly revolutionary games like Black & white will not be seen, can also be compared to the 60s animation era....focus on quantity not quality an u have flintstones and no prospect of an Aladdin, Shrek, Cars etc.)

On the other hand many promising PC titles never come out or f*ck up, cause of the pressure involved in production.

consoles enjoy better developer support over PC's and are bound to have better titles in the long run

ether u r dum or pretending to be one, no console devloper ever gives a sh** to a game unless it turns out to be a mega seller, and the only focus after that is to get a sequel out in between its other planned projects.
After release support is almost "mandatory" in PC games, whether it be a Mod, Patches, extra content etc.

WWE may suck, but its games sure have been leading the beat-'em scene for a long time and coupled with the most advanced "Create-A-..." feature ever in videogames

Make that "console" only genre....cause unlike consolic gamers, pc gamers know when a genre dosen't belong there, so basically the game dosen't even count.
 
Sesar, your posts are laughable at. The attempts you make at making consoles seem inferior to the PC are nothing short of being utterly pathetic, lame and half-assed.

lol....no console games rates higher then Pc titles,

Fanboy/10.

Consoles are all about quantity NOT quality

If that were true, why is PC gaming market declining?

You're starting to prove you have no idea about the consoles, and their games.

PC game = Quality over Quantity

Consoles = Quantity is not compromised by Quality

'Tis a shame the world doesn't share the same opinion, not even proffesional critics. Its a known fact is the PC which have been dragging behind consoles in solid blockbuster titles, only they have is that with the ability of being always next-gen, they have all the best graphics across all platforms.

But no, there doesn't exist I game i've yet played on PC that has an ending as dramatic as the one in Metal Gear Solid 3, and there doesn't exist anything on it comparable to survival horrors like Haunting Ground, Resident Evil 4, Fatal Frame etc. Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts and the Tales series have solidified RPG genre solely on the consoles.

Likewise, consoles don't have anything to put against RTS, MMORPGS, and Simulators which rule on the PC.

You just failed at everything you've said so far up.

And talk about gaming quality, let the consoles further hammer an already hammered market with the Wiimote and Sixaxis. Heck, even polls here on TE show next-gen consoles more votes than graphics cards.

Make that "console" only genre....cause unlike consolic gamers, pc gamers know when a genre dosen't belong there, so basically the game dosen't even count.

Unlike consolic gamers? Is it me or do I see many people even on TE dying for a good beat-'em up on the PC? Pity, Saumil was reccomending Street Fighters on emulators and it was only days when the Mortal Kombat Armageddon released for all current console platforms and an exclusive Mortal Kombat was announced in development for X360.

But I don't see any console gamers even talking about Age Of Empires or Rise of Nations. And doesn't count? Why? just because they don't exist on the PC?

Talk about ignorance.

In short, everything you've said above is pure bull and biased' fanboy crap, and I'm sure everybody here who reads that post above, even PC gamers, will pretty much agree to that. Suggest you pack your bags and move on, kid.

Well....Iam not much of a gamer and I have only played PC games...But isnt it a general opinion that PC games display much better quality compared to console games. Also that this could be the reason that they take more time to develop. Also I thought PC games receive better support through updates and patches both driver and game wise.
 
@Sesar : Dude do u wanna start another PC vs Console Flame war ? Clearly u have absolute no idea of wat u r talking abt as implied by ur last Post ! Everything in ur Last Post was absolute bull-crap ! But if u do wannna start another debate ,i am ready for it .....Kiddo ! btw this Thread : http://www.techenclave.com/forums/c...ming-round-65466.html?highlight=consoles+part Proves how ignorant the PC Fanbois of TE really r of console gaming ! So its Really no Point Going at it again ! :|
A True Gamer cant do without Both Console and a PC , END OF TOPIC ! :|
 
Hey Sesar, your poor grasp of the english languge should've been reason enough to disregard your entire post but then I remind myself that people like you must be put in their place.:)

Noone can be that damn ignorant.

Sesar said:

Correction, they're about quantity and quality.

Sesar said:

They take lesser time to develop because the capacities of a console are known well beforehand so developers know the extents to which they can take their games.

Sesar said:

Horrible titles sell horribly, regardless of what platform they are on.

Sesar said:

You're pretty clueless as to how the gaming industry works right? or any industry for that matter. Your statement works for all developers, not just console ones.

Sesar said:

Not by choice, but by circumstance is how PC gaming is in this situation. But please, continue convincing yourself that PC gaming only includes the genres that PC gamers really want and nothing else. It's not like you're the collective voice for PC gamers everywhere that you're making yourself out to be... oh wait.

Choice is a huge part of gaming. It's what ensures a larger gaming audience.

Well, there are virtually no limitations to how good a PC game can look but by designing your game to look remarkably good, devs run the risk of alienating themselves from the average PC gamer audience who own mid-range comps at best which brings me to my next point.

vij said:
Also that this could be the reason that they take more time to develop

PC games take longer to develop because devs have to consider all kinds of computers during development. Ensuring your game works at different resolutions and is playable by low end and high end computers is no easy task.

Also I thought PC games receive better support through updates and patches both driver and game wise

This is PC games biggest advantage over console games. MS did however make a good effort at trying to bridge the gap through providing patches and mods over Xlive and also allowing custom development via XNA but I doubt it will ever compare.

Just checking.:P Interestingly, this is first time that we're on the same side of an argument. I feel dirty now so I think I'll go scrub my eyes clean.:bleh:

Don't forget FPS's and RPG's.

And why do people assume console games wouldn't play well on PC's? Everyone knows exclusive titles are more a marketting decision than anything else.
PC gamers don't dislike console games, just the consoles itself - Too restricted.
