The next generation of consoles should just have upgrade-able parts, like a modular system, but that would also bring a bunch of new problems if you start having console "minimum requirements"

Didn't the N64 have a RAM upgrade or something? I think Star Fox required it, iirc.Originally Posted by Crableg
The world was a lot less bitchy back then
Only because the internet wasn't really public yetAnd it was only a once off, all they had to do was put "Requires 1MB module" or whatever it was on the box. Nothing as 'confusing' as PC minimum requirements :P
So what if the game is graphically superior on console? What happened to the fact that we play games not platforms or graphics?
Yes graphics make a game more presentable and bring you closer to reality but many of us, seem to forget that aesthetics has a role to play too. I would play with my 'crappy' 30fps locked game with 'good enough visuals' because I can't afford to go out and buy a new components to play a game. Perhaps due to my age and that I have been gaming for over 20 years I have become jaded.
I applaud the writer (Adam Meikle) for the article yet, it's not really news worthy, it's is somewhat common knowledge that PC's will beat consoles in the visuals department. Least we not forget that this beta footage of a build that could have been compiled months ago. Optimisation still has to be done on the consoles.
Then again, the Division should have perhaps been a PC exclusive, how ever Ubisoft thinks otherwise.
TL;DR
We knew this from day one. Play games not platforms.
There you have it folks:
"Play games, (but) not (on) platforms (of inferior power)"
Link to video that hasnt been removed?

No ways I don't believe it a pc with unlimited power depending on components can't beat consoles with set hardware..This is non news.
And I agree with this sentiment, this is why I still own a PS3. It's more a matter of how disappointing the current gen consoles are performance wise compared to what their predecessors were when they were new.
It's a thread about the graphics, not a debate on what makes a good game. I think everyone understands their are many factors to making a good game. For some people, graphics are important, some it's not. It really doesn't matter why you enjoy a game you play. As long as you enjoy it.
In regards to the thread, I am a little surprised medium settings are better than console.
