Well you see, this is called a discussion forum.

Quote:
dis·cus·sion
–noun
an act or instance of discussing; consideration or examination by argument, comment, etc., esp. to explore solutions; informal debate.
Use discussion in a Sentence



This is the "PC Games Arena"

So what do you think the meaning of this thread is ?

You have 8 posts on this forum.. well 7 before you posted that magnificent reply.. were the other 7 in the useless void discussing how you enjoy roasting your own turds on a open fire to smell the fumes ? *sniff sniff*

CiV 5 has DX11 support (According to Steam.) so that should count for something right? Very Happy
(It also has a demo listing but is weighted down by numerous DLC listings.)

Elemental: War of Magic next week as well.

If you ask me it's the consoles that are lacking games.

Noticed the same thing. Really nice coming out of a slump(too many bad ports) and into another densely populated timeframe with AAA titles to look forward to. Good time to be a pc gamer. Of course I play consoles too, but usually just until the games bore me, and back to the pc I go. So yeah, good stuff.

The games you're mentioning had PC as a base platform once, but altho these sequels might be on the PC, they're heavily scripted to fit the consoles better.

Yeah the PC as a gaming platform is going strong. Don't forget about Red Orchestra 2.

I'm sure there are a lot more we are forgetting, too.

Unfortunately Deus Ex: Human Revolution is not a "PC primary game".

It's just a multiplatform game where the devs are trying to balance the old traits from the original DeuEx and merge them with the new "nextgen" features like a covering system, a more action oriented gameplay, and lethal hand-to-hand combat.

There's still a chance to see a good game though. Wink

It's a weak list in my opinion.

The witcher 2
diablo 3

Only two I personally would single out obviously diablo 3 is huge but probably a long long long way off.
The witcher 1 whilst good was not what I'd consider an all time great.

How many of the games on the list are going to be better than the 360/ps3 line up ? in all honesty apart from diablo III I don't think anything worth breaking a sweat over when you put it next to games like the gran turismo 5, metal gear solid rising, dead rising 2 and twisted metals of this world.

Really, all these games you listed elicit giant yawns of boredom from me. And just like most console heavy-hitters, they cause a whole lot of noise before release, not quite as much noise a little while after, then are forgotten a few months later-except in the announcement for an inevitable sequel(surprise-more of the same).

Sure they maybe popular, but popular does not = good.

Depends on one's taste I guess, I for one find that list pretty depressing, all MMOs/RPGs and strategy games, which have always been mainly on pc, it merely demonstrates how PC is becoming a niche for some types of games, loosing the variety it had in the "old days" Sad

This.
I'm a PC gamer since 2001 but I was never interested Strategy/Online/MMO games.
So all thats left for me are hardcore RPG's and Stalker Call of Pripyat earlier this year.
Witcher 2 and Dragon Age 2 are going to be fairly complex games but they are also on consoles.

Luckily for me it's the exact opposite. Also when I think back to '94 when I bought my first PC all the classics I remember are strategy, sims, RPG's and MMORPG's. In fact the same is true for the Amiga which I used before that again. I have to go all the way back to Vic-20 and Cbm-64 for the really good action games, in my opinion anyway.

And unless they announce a delay for Dead Rising 2 on PC next week I doubt we'll have to wait 1 year considering it's being released next month.
