Computer games.

Were they really silly enough to use PC footage for Battlefield?

I don't play it so I'm not 100% sure, but the nerds are going mad about the Battlelog icon in the top right, which apparently means it was on PC. Not convinced myself like.

says hold x to pick up but it still could have been on pc but i doubt it

Can someone tell me what I have to look forward to as a Playstation person.

Thanks.

Wouldn't surprise me if it was PC footage as it's developed on that. I didn't play it on console so I dunno if Battlelog is cross-platform or not. Could be now though.

Yeah it really doesn't much to get a quality PC if you buy the parts yourself.

Probably less than the Xbox One.

not sure about that. and the more cheap you are the faster you need to replace stuff

The button icon might not mean much...there's an XBox controller made for PC.

For £400 - £500 you can buy a PC that can run this generation games - which is next gen as far as consoles are concerned.

You'd have to build it yourself like, but it's just a jigsaw. A big, geeky jigsaw.

does it really take that much though??? like if you want to play with everything on ultra in 1080p yeah but otherwise it surely cant be that hard.

No probably not if you know what you're doing, which I don't. I've owned 2 computers in my life and I looked after them terribly.

This is spot on.

Building a PC is ridiculously easy. You literally can't get it wrong unless you static it or something.

I genuinely believe you'd have to be a raving lunatic to buy an XBox One now. Aside from the many, many, many problems with how it works and is shafting the consumer, the specs are pretty terrible too.

Unless the PS4 come up with a DRM-free solution with a practical used games policy then I'll be PC-only from now on, and to be perfectly honest I might just be PC-only regardless. It's by far the superior gaming platform and has been for some time.

Damn near everything there seems to be expensive...I'd riot if I were you.

An i5 with a solid GeForce GTX graphics card, 8GB of RAM and a futureproof setup for adding more etc. would set you back around £500 now. And that would mean specs comparable with the XBox One straight off the bat.

It's a shame as I need a new computer but it's either throw this thing down the stairs and pay £75 for my insurance excess or spend £500 on a computer which I can't afford.

Bye bye gaming.

An utter joke on an industry now, turned from wanting to make the next best game to making the same game people will buy.
