8 Reasons to hate PC gamers?

[Danny]

This guy obviously has some chip on his shoulder about PC gamers. His arguments are pretty feeble and his generalisation of the gaming community is imo unjustified...

Article.

I lol'd, whoever wrote this article has some personal issues or something, either that or trains 18 hours a day, 7 days a week with his controller.

[Small edit]

Most of his "facts" are mainly based off stereotypical crap you would most commonly find in a Youtube comment and such, mainly in those pathetic little "console wars" people attend to for hours a day replying back and fourth on YT.

"Reasons to hate PC gamers #2:MMORPGs" They exist on consoles too, and anyone really gets addicted to an RPG, would definitely not be considered a "gamer" in any sort.

"Reasons to hate PC gamers #3: They have more money than sense" People actually buy high spec hardware like that for more advanced uses, not for benchmarking their games. A common use for something that powerful would be something like CGI, or high geometry animation and media development, this kid is clearly trolling.

"Reasons to hate PC gamers #4: They're shameless graphics fanatics" Consoles are sure to advance to the stage PC's are at currently, but not anytime soon. PC's have the comforts of features such as anti-aliasing, improved texture filtering, higher resolutions which may actually play a very high effect on your gaming experience. But yeah, a lot of people like the shiny shaders.

"Reasons to hate PC gamers #6: They're filthy pirates" Arr matey, yee yonder apon PC gamers as if yee not pirate stuff fur yer consoles too. (Call of Duty: Black Ops was leaked 2 weeks early for the xbox 360 console, anyone that could mod their system was able to get a hold of it for free, that's where all the leak videos on Youtube game from before the game was release, and why Activision had many videos taken down for copyright claim.)

"Reasons to hate PC gamers #7: 'E-Sports" Kid should play SA:MP or MW2 PC some time, that's where the try-hards are at.

"Reasons to hate PC gamers #8: They're elitists" -Redirect to #4

"Reasons to hate PC gamers #1: They're always complaining" Actually that's what I call this person being a hypocrite as console gamers cry just as much.

#8 i lol'd so fkin hard

lol, If that guy is serious then I think he has some mental issues. Also, massive lol at #6, about the piracy. My cousin has both his Xbox 360 and PS3 modded. Not to mention that there's as much piracy on the consoles as there is on PC platforms. Tons and tons of new games leak way before their release date, on console. Just check out some private torrent sites. They're literally filled with them. Hell, even if those developers for the X360 and PS3 release a patch it won't make a difference. Give the brainiacs a week and they already have a solution for it so the "piracy" can continue.

Am i the only one who agrees in some extent? Heres my 2 cents...

#8 - Agree, never mention you have a ps3 or xbox360. I got into plenty of fights (as a joke) claiming that i got a ps3, and all they say is "mouse > controller".

#7 - Never heard of that before

#6 - We all are

#5 - Were all nerds

#4 - Completely agree. When i played L4D, all i got was a bunch of faggots making fun of my crappy pc... "rofl i'm running this game 80fps 4x aa all high settings with PhysX whats good son what up?"

Not to mention 70% of pc builders build a pc to show off their Crysis frames per second (no pun intended).

#3 - I don't agree. Although some rich kids are fucking stupid.

#2 - I dont care.

#1 - Agree to some extent. Lots of gamers complain about a sequel (or any other part of a game) being complete shit or not "living up to is name". I do this too, honestly.

Theres my 2 cents, sue me.

PS: before you rage on me, i've played PC games for a long time, even at one point, begged my mom to give me money to build a pc but we didn't have enough. I also agree that building a PC is a billions times better than a console, has better advantages, but being a college, money is tight, especially in this economy.
