PC vs Console Gaming
« on: October 14, 2009, 10:20:28 AM »
Which one do you prefer? Budget should be a consideration here. Me, I'd go with consoles, partly because I'm a cost prohibitive kind of guy  :-D Plus, with PC's, every now & then a kick-ass game will come along with kick-ass requirements. I'm still gassing for a good PC though..  :-D

Ang console malalaro sa HD TV, mas feel ang gaming experience.

Ang kalaban naman ng PC ay lag, requirements, installations, virus, etc.
 
Voted for consoles.  :mrgreen:

Para maiba, cause I'm a hardcore PC gamer.

Ang PC malalaro rin sa HD TV (thanks to HDMI and DVI), mas madaling i-configure sa 5.1 surround sound, can support almost all controllers thanks to converters and X360/PS3 using USB.

FPS and RTS games are right at home sa PCs dahil sa pagka-native ng Keyboard+Mouse control.

PC versions of games have the advantage of the Modding community. New characters, new levels, new storylines, limited only by a modder's imagination.

PC's have the potential to exceed 30FPS (which is the cap of most console games).

PC's are at the cutting-edge of graphics technology. Nvidia's 3D vision, anyone?

Granted, mas malaki ang initial cost - but if you know what parts to buy and where to buy them, it's really not exorbitantly expensive. Plus there's really something about building your own gaming monster from scratch. :-D

sure if you want a LIMITED hassle free gaming, go for a console.

BUT if you want MORE out of your machine go for a PC. in 30k makaka buo kana nang PC na maganda for gaming (you just really need to know how to tweak stuff) and let's admit it... mas mura games installers nang pc games kung pirated bibilhin mo compared sa kelangan original copies sa console counterparts.

about exclusive games.. that's a whole different story.
eg. Killzone2 (ps3) etc. sa xbox360 naman kadalasan meron sa windows eh.

he said mostly cdr-king sya! though alam ko marami din issues ang products nila...napabilib parin ako..

RPGs/FPSs for consoles
RTS for PC

mas prefer kong type of games yung rpg/fps kaya voted for consoles.. depende rin talaga sa preference yung choice dito eh..
kung nagtataka kayo, yes mas ok para saken FPS sa consoles, thanks to the Xbox360, at home na talaga dun yung shooters, sarap lang gamitin nung trigger button para malapit na sa totoo, medyo awkward na para saken yung mouse clicks, pero syempre yung wsad sa keyboard okay pa rin.. sa controller kasi analog stick lang..

I prefer console kasi lahat ng parts nun is optimized for gaming (out of the box). Although I have a PC, I use it mainly for internet at paperworks.

PC, in every aspect.

I don't think that PCs susceptible to worms, trojans, and whatnot are valid points since the topic asks as to what is the better gadget to play games, not as to what's the more secure gadget.

Even consoles suffer from lag. And besides, it concerns the internet connection, albeit a slow pc is to be blamed, as well. One thing that kills the PC is the heavy requirements of some games. Other than that, hands down, the PC will always be superior than the consoles.

halos karamihan ng games na para sa console ay nilalabas rin para sa pc... pero minsan lang ang kabaliktaran... now consider that kapag budget ang paguusapan, mas marami kang games na malalaro sa pc...
at tsaka minsan ang isang particular game ay strictly for a particular brand lang ng console...
example: left 4 dead, sa xbox lang sya malalaro... panu kung ps3 lang meron ka? atleast sa pc meron...
at marami nang emulators sa mabibili sa black market... almost lahat pwedeng laruin sa pc... walang laban talaga ang console budget wise...

yung 30k setup mo ng PC para sa ngayon, kaya nyan sabayan yung mga consoles. and by the time na masabi mong hindi na kaya ng PC mo ang mga games na naglalabasan, eh sure akong may bago na ding mga game consoles na naglabasan. malay mo XBOX Pi (3.14159) o Playstation 10 na ang mga usong consoles nun eh ikaw yan pa din gamit mo dahil minor upgrades lang pala at good to go ka na ulit.

Hmmm..in the long run, mukhang mas maganda investment ang PC. If you have the cash to splurge; kelangan "future proof" specs na. But consoles are getting cheaper nowadays, lalo ngaun, 12-13k na lang ata brand new xbox 360. A typical console has a lifespan of 5-6 years, so for the price your gonna pay, medyo sulit na din.

buy a PC for ultimate gaming experience on newest games like Sims 3, Batman Arkham, COD6 MW2, Dragon Age Origins, Left 4 dead 2
Pwede naman bumili ng Windows live controller para sa PC. Pareho yun sa Xbox controller

Tapos buy a PS3 for fight night 4.
Bale fight night 4 lang ang magandang game sa console  :lol:

Habol ko lang sa PS3, mga RPG. As of now, pinagiisipan pa kung PS3 yung kukunin ko or magbubuo ng CPU. naisip ko na mas masisita ako pag nakitang pinaggagastusan ko eh gaming console, kaya baka sa PC na lang. Excuse ko na lang sa kanila would be pang recording lang.
And as I checked sa iba't ibang stores, halos mura na lang din yung ibang CPU packages. Konting upgrades lang siguro, malupit na.

PC = best kung networked setup. kanya-kanyang laro sa kanya-kanyang PC.

console = the fun of playing together in a single TV screen. (of course we're not referring to handheld consoles here)

para sa kin mas comfortable at mas masaya maglaro via consoles, lalo na sa magkakatropa or family.

I vote console kasi parang meron ako nung pagka-arte na yung tipong gusto ko lahat eh categorized:

*PC-for internet, projects, school and office use only! if iinstallan ng game, isa lang dapat,and that would be Warcraft Frozen Throne(DotA)
*Console-for gaming and media center use only!!
*PSP-for gaming only!!(no music or videos)
*Ipod-for music and media center only!

You guys get my point? hehe..para parang hindi jumbled.....uhmm.. BASTA!!.HAHA! Importante kasi para sakin every byte that a memory card has, so a certain gadget can maximize every space of it...basta parang ganun...
