@JoMadBro?: Have You played new XCOM? - every complex PC game prepared for multiplatform ceases to be complex at some point of development. As I mentioned earlier - there is hard cap on how complex can console game be and it's nowhere near to PC only games' usual complexity.

It amuses me how Jo hates on D3. Blizzard already in the beta phase revealed that they were working on the D3 console version, so how is this news to anyone? It was NEVER a PC exclusive.
Mel: Blizzard have several games released on consoles, why do you think this one will hurt the PC platform?

D3 was awful. It almost felt like a port already, so colour me not surprised.
DeadlySinner
over 12 years ago
The issue is not that a PC exclusive is coming out on console (we have plenty of those.) The issue is that Blizzard likely dumbed down D3 so that they could port it to consoles. I don't particularly care, since I will likely never play this game.
Croaker

@.: Yeah and those can do two things alltogether. Play games and play multimedia. And they age pretty badly. Not to mention complexity cap all console games have. General disappointment with Diablo 3 is even more understandable when the cat of it being prepared as console portable is out of the bag

I prefer to imagine PC-dono sitting on his throne, waving a scepter around in anger. PC is an old platform, and has known the pain wrought by faithless publishers many times over. Blizzard may follow the money as they please, but the PC is too wise to go putting on a wifebeater and yelling about it.

Aerion, you don't have to wait much longer. Xbox 360 consoles are on par with notebook computers and already have 90% of what you're looking for.
The days of the PC exclusive are almost over, the PC is dead, dead from its heydey in the late 90s.
Aerion
over 12 years ago
As for consoles vs. PCs... I'll switch over to Consoles when I can have my music, my net-browsers, and my chat-programs on there at the same time as my games.
Ideally they'd also have modular parts for repair and customization.
So, I'll switch over when consoles are identical to PCs, but cheap.
Aerion

A game that was already on the PC, and was generally disliked in the first place, is coming out for the Console and people actually care?
I'll care when Diablo 4 is PS5-exclusive, but not before then.

that often do not let the games be available to multiple platforms. Thus if you want a certain kind of variety, you would be forced to more than one consoles.
Last but not least, there are the game prices, and the lack of high quality f2p games on consoles...
woah
over 12 years ago
@.: Yeh, but nowadays you kind of need to have a computer anyways (maybe, I admit, this is changing in the tab/smartphone society) to work with etc.
So you will have a basic cost here anyways for your PC.
Furthermore, there are what, 3 or 4 major players in the console industry
no.

[url=#user_comment_255933]@woahh[/url]: The consoles are there to be a dedicated computer. Sure you can have a supercomputer to run your games (That's my preference, honestly) but you need, what, a good $700 for a decent computer? Little less if you're building it from scratch. Consoles are cheap but just as effective.
