Are you a gamer, /v/?
I consider myself one, yes. But it has never come up in normal conversations.
I'm a true gamer myself
Real gamers use PC
I mean
come on
Only PC gaming matters. Everything else a shit.

Is there actually any difference between normies and hardcore gamers?
Aren't we all just a bunch of losers?

As cringy that image is, and how cancerous the fanbase of said page probably is, its pretty fucking true and if you don't agree I feel sorry for you.
I have always thought console wars shit was ridiculous. Its obviously trolls and idiots.
If you like a game, and its on that system you want. Then fuckin get it if its personally worth your money.
I think part of the problem is people get buyers remorse and feel like they have to defend their purchases. It's a odd world.
real gamers want the best experiance and they buy most games and multiplats on PC

sony fanbase is the cause of the console war. If they would shutup then everyone else wouldn't be screaming either.

Anything other than this is pure autism. I have a PC & PS4 and if I gave a fuck about halo I'd have an xbox1.
>>322577480
I was specific when I said if its personally worth it for you to pay that much for the game you wanted, then fucking get it.
Its cool though, being a dick on the internet with bad reading comprehension is pretty common.

The day "gamer" became a distinct cultural identity is the day video games died
>>322576561
Is this kinda contradicting itself? Like, it implies that you're a gamer no matter what platform because gaming is gaming, but then it also says real gamer implying that there are other non-gamers that call themselves gamers. I'm not good at English. It puts things in where it shouldn't for the words I think.

He's right though. Both the 3DS and Vita blow home consoles out of the fucking water right now.

Calm down you autist, it's just a basic moniker to describe someone who plays a lot of fucking games. Some people may have pride in it, some people don't care.
Just like bookworms, moviegoers, foodies, etc. all exist.

Playing CoD+BF+Gears Of War/Halo doesn't make you a gamer. Thats hardly a lot. My dad plays more games than that.

There's no definition for cooking though.
>>322582698

It was a dumb unnecessary product that no one needed and had no purpose.
They were the "little guy" for a reason and that wasn't because they just couldn't get attention.

>Cooking or cookery is the art, technology and craft of preparing food for consumption with the use of heat.
Would you take someone seriously if they said they were a chef but could only reheat microwave ramen?
Real gamer's use PC
I mean; cmon guys, it's 2016
>>322582975
no, but if he told me it was cooking, id believe it. you need a different word here.
>>322582478
There's a long list of reasons, but the last time somone brought them up ouya fanboys crawled out of the woodwork to defend it's honor. Yes they still exist.
The Ouya Kickstarter was a situation of being at the right place at the right time. With the rise of indie games in the past couple of years, year over year decreases of the "Big Three" hardware sales, and large studios closing down shop, for a brief while, had the company been competently managed, you could make an argument that the Ouya is the future of console gaming: a small, streamlined operation based off of Android (since mobile gaming is the future, you see) that can ship out a cheap console that comes with cheap games, which some people were saying was a huge problem with the current "Big Three" model of AAA $50 million budget games. Julie Uhrman oozes a used car salesman vibe but a lot of questionable Kickstarters got funded without much thought as to whether they would follow through like they said. At that time, nobody really questioned just how Ouya was going to be friendly to indie developers, it just said that it was for them and people whatever reason took it at face value. It offered no real advantages over something like XBLIG except maybe a big fish in a small pond syndrome where some disposable pap would be ignored on XBLIG but would be a hit on Ouya. Except oops, nobody really wound up buying any games on the Ouya.
About 18 months later, the PS4 and somewhat Xbone are breaking sales records, Sony is working well with indie developers (and not just saying it like Uhrman did/does), and Ouya still has yet to meet their obligations to their Kickstarter backers, and never will. I suspect Ouya will quietly drop off the face of the earth until we hear news that they filed for bankruptcy, most likely sometime late next year, about a year after the Twoya was supposed to come out.
ye man can't wait for 2016s gamesim not even joking 2016 has a shitload of games I'm looking forward to

You can't fix people like this. It's going to suck for him when he won't be able to rely on his parents anymore.

Yes, "gamers" game on a variety of gaming machines.
However, adults who enjoy video games do so on PC, and anything else is just harmful to the activity as a whole.
If you funnel money into Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo for locked-down, proprietary hardware, you should just kill yourself.
If you instead take your money to good, trustworthy corporations such as Nvidia, Intel, Asus, and of course based Valve, you're an adult who's spending their money wisely.
PC gamers don't spend their money supporting greedy, evil corporations who hate gaming and love movies.
People who play mobile apps are not gamers. They are appers.
Gaming on a device which is built for it is much different from gaming on a phone or iPod, so I think these people should have a separate word for their separate phenomenon. Appers.
