Bulbasaur posted... who wouldn't want the strongest console People who play games, not masturbate over specs? Mead posted... within my life I hope we get to a point where you just buy games and they work on wherever machine or service you have We can't even get a fair number of games to work on the console they're supposed to be on as-is. At least not without multiple patches and constant tinkering. The main problems in gaming mostly stem from the business model, where there's always incentive to release broken games and keep releasing multiple exclusive consoles/platforms (which is why we're now bordering having a "console war" for PC in spite of PC not even having consoles).

Zeus 08/15/20 6:26:21 PM #16:	PC and console wars are stupid, but spec discussions and other elements can interesting, particularly if you're trying to decide what to go with (and only picking one) Personally, when Nintendo exited the handheld market (and no, the Switch isn't a proper handheld), the last remnant of my enthusiasm for traditional gaming went with it.

ParanoidObsessive 08/15/20 6:27:15 PM #17:	Mead posted... even the smartest people are very bad at predicting what will happen in the future Not really. It's generally pretty easy to predict the future, as long as you're predicting trends based on human behavior rather than technological innovation. A futurist in 1995 might not have been able to predict the invention of the smart phone or what it could eventually do, but given the assumption of the growing influence of the Internet and increasingly easier means of accessing it, they could do a pretty good job of predicting the ultimate effect it would have on human behavior and society. If anything, the futurists who tend to get things wrong more often than not are the idealistic futurists.

acesxhigh 08/15/20 7:14:57 PM #23:	Mead posted... within my life I hope we get to a point where you just buy games and they work on wherever machine or service you have you would think that's best for the public, but it might not be. the "exclusivity" competition can be pretty helpful for funding game development. for example, GD Studio got a ton of support from Epic in exchange for making Diabotical exclusive to the Epic store. While it would have been great to play it on Steam, the resources are going towards improving the game and all we really have to do as players is to install the Epic launcher to play it. There are obviously limits to how fragmented the PC platform can be, but I feel that it will naturally come to a reasonable number. <cite>acesxhigh posted [p:943427481] in Console Wa...

As a grown arsed adult i could simply buy any or all platforms at some point but I have all I desire right now. As Mead pointed out all that matters to me is the software not the hardware.
