This is made me lol.

And here I was ready to say troll harder.

Mmk

Im not saying PC gaming is dead, in fact I advocate the opposite but this isn't a great example considering they got it 3 days before consoles and some unsavoury types got it before that.

" @brandoncooper17: Console games have genres other than FPS and strategy.  Just saying. "

PC gaming isn't dead because a single game's community met a goal sooner than the console communities? 
 
I don't think PC gaming is dead, but this argument isn't a great one.

" And here I was ready to say troll harder. "

This is a great subject. Let's start a heated discussion about which platform is best.

All this proves is that consoles have a bunch of people that mindlessly charge each other and get 1 kill 1 death and couldnt care less about team actions.

The  "PC Gaming Is Dead" myth is spread largely by certain interested business parties who WISH it was true.  They would rather you bought all your games for a locked down piece of hardware with a locked down, single distribution channel.  If the PC option didn't exist in the marketplace you have no idea how hard they'd give it to us.  The fact that the PC Option exists means they have to hold back on the rampant customer abuse, price hikes, and even more ridiculous terms in the EULAs.
 
I guess what I'm saying is, even if you are a rabid console fanboy, you should praise your lucky stars PC gaming isn't dead.

It really depends on the genre.

pc gaming is not dead. steam is the pure proof of this. They have a business model that not only circumvents the used market, but brings more to the table than any other service including xbox live. DRM that actually satisfies customers. I know I am, besides why the fuck would I buy an xbox360 game when I can get it on sale for 5 bucks on steam instead of 30 or 40 buck on xbox.
 
There are bigger online communities on counterstrike source than modern warfare 2 at this point. There are pc games with staying power while most games communities on xbox live are dead within the first year. the only exceptions have been games like halo and somewhat call of duty, though those aren't exactly common

This will end well.

Well, to be honest, he's kinda trolling in the opposite direction now, as evidenced by his latest post. He pulled a 180 troll. "

hooray for PC...for once.  srsly who would play bc2 on consoles amirite?

PC gaming is nowhere near dead.It had best exclusives this year.

Super.

Ohhhhhhh shitjustgotreal.

Man, there's barely a campfire here. I expected a flamewar. Good job, Giant Bomb.

 Who even says "PC GAMING IS DEAD" these days? PC gaming is alive and having a damn good time of late.

It seems like the only people who keep bringing it it up are the PC Elite. And they only do that so they can batter a straw man around for a bit and call it a victory over the unwashed console hordes.

Im pretty sure when world of warcraft makes 120,000,000 each and every month still from its 8 million subscribers kkinda makes more money than blops can :P

For anything other than indie or strategy games... it's dead for me. There's just no reason to use a PC when I have a lovely couch and a huge screen for playing shooters and racers and other similar kinda games. There's also too many buttons on a keyboard for my small console minded brain. Seriously, I already had enough trouble learning Final Cut and Photoshop shortcuts, now my entire Starcraft game is reliant on me memorizing more? Ugh it hurts my head and I'll never exit bronze league. 

" @warxsnake:  Ah ok, that makes sense, sorry about that misinformed statement. Still dont think this is a great example though. "

Pfff, obviously PC gaming is dead and the Apple Pippin is the best platform out there.
 
Deal with it.

OP has made some of the most singularly retarded posts I've seen on this forum in addition to acting like a child. Let this thread sink into the depths.

As we all know a single screen shot is all you need to prove anything.

*looks at recently created Steam account* No. *looks at actual post* Wait, what's the point of this thread?

Wait, did I take a wrong turn? It appears I'm on the GameFAQs forum. 
 
I hate it when that happens!
