PS4 vs PC.

Consoles *should* be more popular than pc's. They're cheaper, much easier and simpler, and an appliance.

Bullshit. A PC from 2005 couldnt manage what these consoles are doing today even stripped down. Try running crysis 3 at 720 on low with an x850xt. Even if they added DX9 support it wouldnt happen.

Look at the uncharted games, are you trying to tell me a setup from 2005 which can barely manage 60FPS in BF2 maxxed is going to pull that off?

So many delusional members on this forum. Dedicated hardware thats running on an OS optimized purely for gaming makes even the PS4 hardware better than whats available today in terms of performance. People said the same shit about the 360 and PS3 and where dead wrong, the hardware in those by PC standards was not fantastic then either. Besides the gimmicky cell processor which turned out to be lame besides folding was nothing magical.

Just going to bump this up again... because you see, I took the incentive to build a dated gaming rig. However I have not been able to get hardware from 2005, I did manage to put together a system that could have been purchased in 2006. It's an Intel Pentium D 920 w/ 2GB DDR2 and an ATI X 1950 XTX GPU. So far the only game I've played on it has been Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (Granted this game was released in 2010). I am still able to play the game. So far I've completed the first "back in time" missions and I'm about to start the modern campaign.

Now to try some games recently released to see how they stack against this old "useless" gaming PC. ;)
