PC exclusive genres:
-simulation (elite), shooter (quake), strategy (starcraft), survival sandbox (minecraft)
Tailored for a mouse & keyboard.

>Console exclusive genres:
-platformer (metroid), action rpg (zelda), action adventure (god of war), tp shooter (gears)
Tailored for a controller.

What side are you on and why?

>Personally I grew up on PC but found console games, apart from DotA, to be more fun and immersive. Then there's that weird side of me that likes playing rts with a controller more than with a mouse.

Well seeing how all the PC genres are dead and it has no AAA exclusives (even if most of them are shit these days), console I guess. Should have mentioned F2P and ASSFAGGOTS/CSGO, because that's pretty much PC gaming in 2015/16.

You grew up on PC but have seen both sides and dont act like a mustard.
Never seen that before.
>>
>survival sandbox is exclusive
What? Minecraft, Ark and H1Z1 are all on console.
>>
>>331515714
all of the gears games are on PC and you can emulate the rest of those genres

>pc exclusive ganre
>shooter

LMAO do you believe yourselfe
all shooters are developed for console first and later ported to pc (eventualy)
all the best selling shooters sell most on console and only less on pc

rpg and shooter are the best genres and they are both console genres
fighting games are exclusively console genre too all fighters on pc are dead and broken

pc has only few exclusive genres thats moba, mmo and autism because nobody wants these on console

How are any of those genres exclusive to console, or tailored specifically for a controller. Are you trying to say there's never been a platformer designed to be played with a keyboard?
>>
>>331520004
Objectively wrong on all fronts except for fighting games
>>
>>331520095
rpgs fallout 4, witcher 3, dragon dogma, diablo 3 all made for console by design
shooters call of duty, uncharted, halo, quantum break, gta5 all made for console only ported later
fighting games dont exist on pc or brawling games those are just dead there

shooters and rpg are best genres of games and they are designed for console
pc is only for mmo so you can grind and sell pig tails to chinese and for mobas to get pissed on by russians and for ms paint map coloring books like europe universalis

now that bethesda is bringing mods to console on doom and fallout there is no reason NO REASON to play on pc
sony vr is cheaper than steam vr too just quit already familia
>>
>>331515714
>survival sandbox (minecraft)
you know minecraft is literally on every console
and dragon quest builders exists and is sony exclusive
>>
>>331520338
And yet all those games can be played on PC just as well if not better. How exactly were they "designed to be played only on consoles"
>>
>>331515714
Mine is better than yous
>>
>>331520504
menus designed for gamepad
fonts designed for a tv at a distance from player
map size and optimization for console
number of players per map optimized for console
game actually works on release on console, and doesnt work for a month after porting on pc
game release is already delayed so if you want for patches you pretty much get spoiled everything
>>
>>331516926
"started on" is not the same thing as "exclusive"

There are shooters on consoles. There metroidvanias on PC

Don't use the word exclusive if you don't mean exclusive

I miss the time when devs made first and third person action adventure games for the PC.

diablo 3 was designed to be a console game
they changed it later because it failed on console since it sucks
now twith expansions its more pc game but nobody cares since it sucks

It's true. Consoles require a much more streamlined and casual interface/approach, so gameplay always gets watered down.

>>331522037
Where is your GOAT fighting game?
Where is your GOAT brawler?
Where is your GOAT spectacle fighter?
Where is your GOAT metroidvania?
Where is your GOAT Mario game?
>>
>>331522150
>fighting game
I don't play many fighting games, but Street Fighter IV seems popular.
>brawler
Most of the best brawlers are arcade games, so pick any that got a port.
>spectacle fighter
DMC4
>metroidvania
Cave Story
>Mario game
For ROMhacks there's no better option.

Too obvious, Anon.

Same. There are so many games released in general these days, I don't understand how someone could not be satisfied with just a PC unless they have extremely narrow and specific tastes

Console exclusives that actually function correctly are cool too though

I stopped using my PC a couple of years ago. I've just got a PS4 and I'm finally enjoying myself again. I think the last PC exclusive I got was Civ V.

You posting on phone?

>>331522068

True I turned in my ps4 a few weeks ago.

I'm a poorfag who can only afford consoles but the watered down visuals, sub 20 fps frames, no games and lack of control just made me hate the entire thing. Now I'm just back to saving for a pc.
