Mods. Mods everywhere. Already the games have obvious graphical improvements, but then you have people putting out mods that enhance the experience and in a way turn it into an entirely different game. This makes me wish I had a PC that could run games so bad. What are the coolest/most interesting mods that you have seen??? Here's a mod from Arma III called "Altis Life RPG". It's a cops and robbers type thing, and it is awesome, and I wish that I could play it, but I can't. [video=youtube_share;EwYdlv07bJI]http://youtu.be/EwYdlv07bJI[/video]
I don't know why but I just can't justify gaming on my computer. Not sure what it is, but it just feels like that's not what it was made for. Of course, that feeling's not there with my Razer Blade, because there's just this mentality that it was designed for gaming in mind. Conversely, I love playing on my 360 and One. I'm weird.
Actually, you're not. Anytime I go to a friend's house and play on their PC I have to plug in the Xbox or Playstation controller to accomplish anything. Unless it's Minecraft.
Same here lol. I play Killing Floor with my buddy using a keyboard and mouse and it just feels wrong. I need a controller to play games. I use a keyboard for typing useless junk into my browser.
I love ARMA III to death. This. I find aiming easier on a mouse than with an analog stick. So much easier to do a fast look.
I'm a lifelong console gamer. In the past, I never really invested much in my PCs to play games because I didn't think I had to. But I finally built a decent gaming rig a little over a year ago, and I'm absolutely loving it. It doesn't take long to get accustomed to playing with a keyboard and mouse -- it's downright essential for strategy and FPS games. You can still play just about any major title with a 360 controller, though, so you don't have to deal with the awkwardness of playing a more console-centric action game with a keyboard and mouse. Plus, there's a slew of homegrown PC franchises that I had little to no exposure to before that I can enjoy in all their glory now (I am so fucking on the Civilization train now that it is kind of ridiculous). I understand that the investment isn't for everyone. My desktop is pretty much my media hub, so I can justify paying for the extra horsepower for reasons other than just gaming. And I thought the whole process of researching parts and putting my PC together was fun. It gives you a much better understanding of how the hardware works.
I absolutely want to build a gaming PC. From the little bit of gaming that I've done that my laptop can run, plus a bit from friends' computers, keyboard and mouse is the way to go. Also, FTP games, indie titles, crazy sales, and . All of which are basically nonexistent on console. All in all, gaming is just going to cost less than playing on a console, even considering the fact that you could be spending more than twice on a good PC than you would on a console. Also, you get a machine that does more than a console would.
