Remember the days when people kept saying PC Gaming was dead?

There's always something special about playing co-op or competitive console games on the couch next to your friends that PC gaming will never replace.

The new super smash bros has 8 player mode; playing with 8 friends in one room on the same TV against each other is pretty darn fun.

i wish i had 8 friends =/

Some of us already have our PC hooked up to our giant flatscreen. How hard would it be to run a console game on a PC with some USB hardware for handling communication with the controllers?

LAN parties cannot replace this type of play. I totally agree with you that there is something a console delivers that can't be had via PC. Ease of use is only one variable.

There's also something to be said for being able to have a fully immersive multiplayer experience without having to share screen real estate and lose your character. Honestly, I can already emulate 99% of console couch coop games and my computer can output to my television and I have USB controllers, so what does a console have over my pc again?

there are certain games i cant see myself playing on PC tho. metal gear solid series, resident evil series, any kind of fighting or sports game (dont play those much,) dark souls, ect. i havent gotten a ps4 yet but i eventually plan to once enough games are out for it.

if it werent for mmos, id probably never play pc games. i hate sitting at the computer.

I completely missed the PS3 generation and PS4 being out was news to me.

I only play P99.

Gaming in general has been pretty shitty for many years now (on console and pc)

Either that or I'm getting old and losing touch

I'm leaning towards games being bad tho
