I'm not saying it won't work, and for the budget it does work.. but stepping up a budget to 500-600 gets you a whole lot more processing headroom and graphics card for your rig.

You aren't buying a console for 350-400 and not buying ANYTHING else for it anyways. If you factor in extra controllers, PS+ or Live, and game cost it becomes a wash pretty quickly.

"Hemorrhage" implies much more serious losses than they've ever taken, too.

OP is just referring to people who say that Nintendo is basically immune to any consequences from financial loss because of how much they've profited in the past. He's not necessarily throwing in with people who claim Nintendo is doomed because they had a couple of bad years either.

>started browsing /v/ after Mass Effect 2 came out

holy shit get out. You are right about the first one being the best though
>>
Mustard here, you can in theory build a great computer that is better than a PS4 or a Xbone for around the same price, but that doesn't take into account shit like a monitor, mouse, you'd have to build it yourself.

And the truth is that there are almost no games on the market that are perfectly optimized for that kind of PC so it will probably end up looking like shit. Whereas with consoles, the games are as optimized as possible for garbage hardware, which gives you miracles like Uncharted 4

It's a dumb argument. You need at the very least 800 bucks and a good head to build a good computer. Around 1000 to 1200 bucks is the perfect spot, in my opinion.

They're definitely worth the investment, however. Better performance, better graphics, better frames, better prices in the long run and a much better playing experience. The only way consoles ever have a chance against PC's is with exclusives, and this generation there's like 1 or 2 exclusives worth a shit for each 300 dollar shit-box.
>>
>>320683386
PS4 has only one exclusive worth a shit. Saying it has only one game is just an inflammatory way of putting it.

Enjoy your 350 dollar Bloodborne machine :^)
>>
>>320685759
Yeah, but a keyboard and optical mouse from 2000 would be just as good for gaming as a similarly priced one from 2015. Yeah, you can buy the fancier stuff with more bells and whistles, but then I think that's where you'd be settling into the "accessory" category.

Like seriously, who needs those shitty rainbow leds and 400 mouse buttons.

Also, can you use a PS3 controller on a PS4? Or an 360 controller on a One? There are very few cases where you are able to use a game controller outside of its respective gen.

Stop posting this shit like you know what you're talking about.
If you're desperate for a cheap gaming PC, there are ways to make it work.
There are downsides to building a cheap one, such as not having as much room to upgrade down the road, but performance is not really one of them. It will perform noticeably - but not considerably - worse than a $600 computer.

$600 is generally the sweet spot for affordability, upgradablility, and performance. You can play any game on the market at 1080p with 45+ fps, and you can max out most of them. 95% of the games on the market right now will run maxed at 60fps, assuming you aren't cranking up the AA too high.

>>x86 consoles are easy to emulate
This is true though, the biggest hurdle is the lack of documentation of the rest of the hardware and how it all interfaces, but this will be found out now that the PS4 is jailbroken. The next biggest hurdle is interest in the console, and since 99% of the PS4's library is available on PC, there is unfortunately very little drive for a workable emulator, even though a full speed PS4 emulator is theoretically possible on modern PCs
>>Nintendo can hemorrhage money for 10 years and be fine
It all depends how much they're losing really, they have about 7 billion in the bank at this rate, so if they lost 700 million a year they could continue at that rate for 10 years. Not that shareholders would go for that, and a company losing that much money continually would have devalued stock which would see most of its bank dry up
>>The next video game crash is nigh!
All the signs are there, unfortunately it's one of those things that people will only look back and label in hindsight. It'll be very difficult to determine when you're in the eye of the storm because shit will look normal relative to where you came from
>>you can build a PC that is stronger than a PS4 in actual game benchmarks for 350 or less

>>

>>320687985
Valkyria Chronicles is tactical turn based though I don't know how well executed it is. When I say jrpg combat I'm talking about like Pokemon and FF. They may not all play exactly the same but it's more or less similar. I've never been big on those kinds of games though so omega of the ones that seem similar to me may not be.

I believe XCOM is similar though I've never played it, the problem with FF games wasn't that they were turn based but the majority of the time it involved pressing X but then again a lot of games are like that without being turn based. I've only played P3FES and a little bit of the SMT games so far but I like the way they play.

>>
>>320687798
Not really. Look at Dungeon Travelers 2 for example. It's turn based and not a tactical turn based game but it's still fucking good.

Really, the only problem with turn based games is if there are no systems attached. If it's basically "My first RPG Maker game". The early Final Fantasy games are good examples, since combat evolved around clicking "Attack" or "Magic". Shit got boring fast.

Turn based is a good foundation to build a game on but you can't use something so barebones as minimal turn based combat by itself.

Someone needs to explain this console war faggotry to me. I can see why exclusives might matter since it means if you buy console X you can't play game Y but why is it such an insult to have a previously exclusive game appear on other platforms? Surely you'd think everyone would be happier since more people can play that game but everyone just points and laughs like they just saw someone shit their pants and cry. Why do people say console X has no games because it lacks exclusives? It's not like exclusives are the only thing that matters.

I'll bite. 8 cores doesn't mean shit, AMD's FX series has a bunch of cores but it's consistently outperformed by the 4690k, 4590, 4790k, etc etc.

That's DDR3 RAM you absolute pleb, and it's not like RAM matters that much in the grand scheme of things. Literally throw in any shitty 8 gig stick and you'll be fine.

>Comparing TV ownership over a peripheral

are you fucking retarded? if i never owned a KB+m then why would it make sense to own one? if do own one and decided to buy a pc then thats included to the cost.
>>
>>320690691
Then drop the whole 20 dollars more to buy a mouse and KB.

DAMN STILL $330 SO EXPENSIVE
>>
>>320691063
You don't need to match it exactly, just the performance. I don't even know why they used 8 core CPUs this gen since not many games use even more than 4.
>>
>>320691231

Well, the thing is, if you don't live in a poor country, you will have a KB/M, and even then you could get any shitty old keyboard/mouse for 10 dollars for the both.

Everybody has a TV, and almost everybody has a KB/M if they aren't complete poorfags and have a desktop PC.

Damn, I guess you only had laptops in your life.
>>
>>320690971
So you've got a computer that about match the PS4 (not one that is stronger than it), and it has no input devices. That's almost what OP asked for, but unless you can find a keyboard and mouse combo that doesn't exceed 20 bucks, you still failed outright. Congrats.

Because exclusives ARE the only things that matter with consoles now. If a console has no exclusives why would you bother with it over a PC or a different console?

Fair enough. Guess we'll add the screen to both the console and the PC. Both cost the same. Neat.
>>
>>320691442
I don't think it would really be emulation but even if the architecture is the same you still have to emulate the entire system whereas I think the x86 part is only the CPU.
>>
>>320691586
Well done. You've scraped by and still not beat the PS4 for less than a PS4 costs. Well met, truly PC is the greatest since it costs more than a PS4 to make on that plays just as well as a PS4.

Technically the machine would still play better than a PS4 friendo :^)

Also, no, it doesn't 'About match' the PS4. It gets 30 FPS in Fallout 4 in NATIVE 1080p, not upscaled 1080p.

Sure thing, buddy, everyone here really believes you with all that proof you didn't post. ;)

I have no PS4, I built a $1000 PC 3 years back that still hasn't met a game it can't play on maximum settings. I'm just saying that you really haven't proven OP's statement wrong.

Yes, but with Fallout 4 having lower graphics settings than the PS4 equivilent.

It's on medium settings. You're fucking deluded if you think the PS4 is running any higher than PC Low.

The PS4 uses integrated graphics friendo, with a CPU clocked at 1.6 GHz.

I own both a PS4 and a gaming rig I built myself.

Sure, if you pare down the budget of the gaming PC to completely crippling levels and have to buy everything new (no one does this) a PS4 is the better buy if you only want to play current gen games.

What if in addition to current gen, you wanted to play NES, SNES, N64, PSX or PS2 games along with the back catalog of PC games? Shit outta luck on a PS4.

But hey, at least you can still sneer at PC gamers, huh?

Why are we comparing consoles to PCs? A PC is a multipurpose machine, a consoles only purpose is to play games. A high end GPU's main purpose is to play games, and can get one of those for the same price as a console that will greatly out preform it. If instad of over paying for a shitty laptop for $200-400 and a console for $400, you took that money and put $600-$800 into a PC you could have a single device that out preforms both of the others.

I cant understand anyone that spends less than $500 on a computer, they're so fucking slow, you cant do anything, even basic operations without considerable slowdown.

If it's just a Notebook thing where you're only going to use Microsoft Office or something then it's acceptable I suppose. Laptops can be great study/work tools but you don't need the latest and greatest either.

Oh how could I forget they also added in the functionality of a $40 set top box.

And they are completely unusable after 2 years and loaded with adware. Your paying top dollar for the cheapest hardware they could get their hands on because they want the biggest profit possible.

They can't do everything a computer can but consoles aren't strictly game machines anymore. Keep in mind I think this is a bad thing.
