fucking PCs they need an upgrade each six months in order to play the lastest games.
I just buy a computer that’s crappy when it was released. No problems with being outmoded because I’ll probably have an entire generation of games to play.
I’ve always hated his argument. Yeah, they need an upgrade every year or so to have the latest hardware, but hardware that’s years old can still play the newest games at higher setting than consoles can, more often than not.
I built my computer in mid 2010 with a really good card at the time (5870) and only upgraded a month or two ago, so a little over 2 years. It’s not that I couldn’t play games anymore, it’s that I couldn’t just flip all sliders to max and play, I was still playing 90% of games on high. I’d rather have the option of upgrading whenever you want over not and playing games at less than minimum settings.
Wouldn’t that be two years?
That’s what I said.
xbox.
I’d like to see what the new controller would look like. The current one is already perfect and something tells me it’ll be backwards compatible unless they add some chi-balancing jewels in the d-pad and little propellers on the third and fourth shoulder buttons
or maybe just stick the black and white button back where they used to be on either original xbox layout
I used one the other day and didn’t like the rearmost shoulder buttons. It made my hands hurt after a while.
were you holding it right?
Do you have tiny hands?
I’m half expecting them to implement a touch pad in the middle. Like the Ouya controller.
yes they should do that
Would be pretty cool. It would allow for minor kinect functionality without the need for the sensor, and maybe even a borderline mouse aim accuracy in shooters.
Hell, what if they just ditched a thumb stick and used a touch surface? What if they X’d the Dpad? It was shit anyway.
Replacing the Dpad with a touchscreen sounds like a good idea, but it might be slightly awkward.
Would make 3rd party games that rely on the Dpad a bitch too.
right now there are a lot of naysayers about that product :meh:
yeah that argument is overused by consoles gamers
I’ve had the same computer since 2008, could play almost every game maxed until late last year when I upgraded my card to what wasn’t even top of the line at the time and I can still run every game maxed. That argument is wrong and tired.
I would have been able to say the same thing if my PSU hadn’t died and taken my moboard with it.
