PC's PSU folded and I will be too busy over the next couple of years to be fucking around with PC gaming considering my original reasons for doing it are pretty much null now.

So, I need games

So far I got

Crackdown, Table Tennis, Fable II, Ninja Gaiden II, SFIV, Armoured Core: For Answer, GoW 1 and 2, Saints Row 2, DW5: Empires, Forza 2, Far Cry 2 and a couple others I'm borrowing.

I plan on getting

PGA Tour 10, Tales of Vesperia, Dead Rising, Red Faction Guerilla but I need more to add to the list, preferably older cheaper ones too.

Ideas, gentlemen?

Oh and if any of you want to play with me my gamertag is NovaSyx.

Prototype is practically a must. I'll also suggest COD 4, steer clear or WAW though.

I'll add you.

I still find it silly that you can afford a 360 and not a PSU, and have time for console gaming when PC gaming is exactly the same (and easier, lol match making)

Console gaming is alot more accessible. When I'm waiting for a friend to come and pick me up I can just turn the thing on from my chair, play a couple rounds of gears and shut it down. When I used to do that with my PC they'd end up waiting for me to finish.

It's not really about the PSU it's just the straw that broke the camels back. The only thing I'm truly going to miss is TF2.

And yeah I've got those for PC, but I'm going to have to re-get COD4.. I played UFC yesterday at a friends house, I dunno it kinda sux just mashing X and A sometimes with LB to see who wins first?

Prototype isn't better on PC.

what, a buggy game with over priced small expansion addons and theres nothing to do unless you've got the PC version to fix those bugs and get them expansions for free?

fallout 3 is a nice game, but its graphically disappealing, sound is bad and unvaried (enjoy your 12 songs over and over) did i mention they released it with tons of stupid bugs?

i didnt say prototype was better on pc, I threw mirrors edge and dead space at him because they're seen as console games, and you use the 360 pad for them.

Excuse me, but I'm sorry I don't have the income or the time at my disposal to run a high end pc, nor do I want to at this point in time.

Console gaming is more accessable and by my accounts easier and less strenuous than PC gaming.

Sure Dead Space and Mirror's Edge are on the PC... I don't really care though, I'm happy playing them on the xbox from the comfort of my bed.

Not making much sense to myself right now, but then again it is half 6 in the morn.

What did all that have to do with you?

income (...) at my disposal to run a high end pc

I keep seeing people say stuff like this.. and it makes no sense at all to me.

Why do all console users act like it costs insane amounts such as 100+ euro a month to be able to play the newest PC games? It's not like you have to upgrade something on your PC every 1-3 months just to be able to play the newest games.

I bought my current system in 2007 and am planning on using it for at least 2-3 more years, without thinking about upgrading at all.. I don't need 300 fps to be able to enjoy some game.

I just think that in the end, there's not a massive difference between the the costs at all, because if you're not after x1024 AntiAliasing, you can do quite long with a mediocre PC. There's no costs like DLC which you have to pay for, or something like xboxlive subscription, just to be able to play the games online.

It doesn't cost alot to run a high end PC, that's true. And you don't have to buy an XBL subscription (which to be fair is only about £27 for 12 months.).

However what you do get is ease of access, no screwing around with games that are often broken on launch (GTA IV, SR2, Prototype).

Console/PC isn't better, just different.

Games intended specifically for PC are the best =^D

It made sense at the time, fuck knows now though.

Clix I'm going away to sea again in around a month so it would be a fruitless pursuit buying a pc at this point in time. I'm pretty sure that's what I meant at the time.

Alright, that's something totally different then :P I just HAD to ask after seeing numerous of people saying PC isn't worth it due to costs.

There's a reason why it's only £10 :/

It wasn't as good as DMC3 or 2, in my opinion anyways.. Too much of this Nero bullshit. It's like Taking DX and saying Fuck this, you're playing as Tracer Tong for the rest of the series! USE YOUR EXTENDO ARM. Dante was much more badass when you only played as him building up your devil trigger and abilities. Capcom best not screw DMC5 over.


What I would suggest is UT3. Game never gets old.

DMC4 is better than DMC3 for gameplay, no one has denied this. They're only crying because of difficulty.

I mean, DMC4 Dante system is DMC3 Dante system ON THE FLY with no bullshit 2 styles at a time.

DMC4 was trying to be different wasn't it? Too much Dante, so they gave us someone who plays completely different. Nero is also a hell of a lot easier to use than Dante so new DMC players actually have a chance. (Me thinks)

DMC4 didn't even leave off from DMC2's storyline.. Some sideplot concerning Nelo Angelo and Nero, and his sword, and demon and- complete bs. You can NEVER have too much Dante. It shouldn't have been Devil May Cry "4".. maybe some subtitle, but it was pretty much based on Nero, which I wouldn't consider a devil.

I can agree with James as far as in-game style switching is concerned and game play.. It's just the storyline and main characters.

I just didn't feel for DMC4 as much as I did the others :/
