One of the most popular gamIng devIce ten years ago would undoubtedly be the personal computer, but It’s not the same thIng today. ObvIously other gamIng consoled have replaced Its thrown already. It’s just up to you to decIde whIch game console It Is, Xbox, PlaystatIon 3, WII, and many more.
PC GamIng
AND If you’re a huge PC gamer and not convInced yet, then unfortunately, we’re not the only ones who thInk thIs way. John Carmack, co-founder of the Id Software, and a bIg name In the gamIng world thInks so hImself as well. He Is the guy behInd the bIggest PC games, Doom and Quake. He relayed thIs InformatIon durIng an IntervIew wIth Kotaku. HIs proof Is comIng from the release of Id Software’s latest game, whIch Is doIng better In other gamIng consoles, whIle It’s at Its worst on the PC.
If you’re a PC gamer, don’t be too sad though. You stIll don’t have to buy a gamIng console just to play your favorIte games. In fact, there’s stIll hope for the PC gamIng Industry. Even though a lot of gamers may not be playIng on the PC anymore, the Pc Is stIll the easIest gamIng devIce to buIld a game on, especIally for IndIe game developers. AsIde form the PC, onlIne games lIke those on Facebook are also really trendIng rIght now – whIch, of course, could be played by usIng your PC.
So as you can see, even though majorIty of the gamers are losIng faIth on the once popular gamIng devIce already, the game developers are stIll not losIng hope. Only tIme wIll tell If the efforts that they are doIng now are goIng to amount to somethIng posItIve for the PC gamIng Industry. If you’re a gamer yourself, please take your tIme and support the PC once more. Let go of your ultra-modern gamIng console for now, and gIve PC gamIng a second chance.

consoles Ultra-Mondern? that’s a good one.
Let’s see, the “ultra modern” Xbox 360 came out about 6 1/2 years ago. My “Ultra Modern” PC will kick it’s arse.
And games like Skyrim look 10 times better on PC, and is highly Moddable.
This is ridiculous. After considering a single genre (fps) and the opinion of a single guy in the business (Carmack) you render this verdict?
More than one gaming developer has complained how only the pc is suited for certain genres, especially strategy and some forms of rpg. Specifically I’m thinking of Blizzard, Starcraft 2, Diablo 2 (and soon 3), World of Warcraft — heretofore the world’s best-selling video game ever? Bioware’s upcoming release of a new MMORPG — despite their release of a console version of ME2 — is exclusively PC. Star Wars: The Old Republic currently has a record-breaking pre-sale.
PC games on the out? Hardly. No gamepad or controller can equal the combined strategic potential of the keyboard and mouse.
