Microsoft Continues to Proclaim its Love for PC - by doing nothing at E3

[mafia97]

I just want Microsoft to release New age of empires + zoo tycoon that landed on xbox one.

If they brought out a new Midtown Madness I would not need to buy another game for months and months. I loved all previous iterations of MM.

They are using the word "gaiz", therefore the article is hilarious, and it's true!

I really don't care about the premise (because PC gamers are the worst people in the world), but the article is shittastic. And to be fair a LOT has happened at MS lately.

The big problem are the gamers though. They are still supporting the publishers while at the same time raging so hard there's froth at the brain. I like it when they are angry, it means someone is doing something right.

Well you certainly lived up to your title here.
Pc gamers are what push tech forward we deserve good games too as does our market share.

It's what I do best.

But still ... you buy games even if you don't really support the bussiness. You WILL buy BF5, you WILL buy whatever GoD comes, you WILL buy whatever crap anyone, including MS and EA, is pushing. And you'll bitch about it because somehow you deserve good games, and you are better than other people and PC gaming is for some reason better than other forms of entertainment. Which is extremely self centered.

I haven't, I am committed to not buying anymore shithole games from studios who only care about getting the product out and making their buck and moving on. I am seriously debating if I will purchase GTA5 due to the BS release date and still full price, I won't pay full price for a game that has taken this long to make for the PC, and for broken games anymore. We seriously need to start class action suits against companies who sell games with huge known issues making them unplayable, would you buy a car for full price if you knew the headlights didn't work or they would work, but only if you stopped off to make a in drive payment?

H-hey!
I'll have you know that my backlog was carefully thought-out and made to support the devs...also, I insult people online with all my heart and highest consideration. I will not just reply to everyone, calling them a hacker or <insert violent phrase/extremely offensive insult/your mom here>.

( when I do, they had it coming)​

This! I wouldn't need to play any other game for the next 3-5 years (5y w/mods). Well, maybe except for any racing sim, GTA or brainless fast-paced shooter.

No. Just no.

Everyone cites the next Battlefield, or the next Madden, or the next train wreck that EA puts out as an example of how we are the problem. I pose a different question. When will other people stand up and make good on their moaning? Whether it be EA, MS, or any other company, the consumer shows their displeasure by not buying crap. All of my computers are Origin free. The last GFWL title I purchased was Bulletstorm (didn't read the fine print). The only Xbox I've ever owned was gutted and turned into a media center PC. Prove your point with dollars, not moaning or moaning about how other people aren't doing their part.

I agree with Ford, that the death of studios by assimilation is a problem. I get around this by buying from the people that jumped ship from these studios. I'll never have another afternoon tooling around in a Puma, sniping the head off an Atlas. At the same time, I've got Bioshock and Risk of Rain. The video game world changes, and we have to be willing to go out and find whatever it is we are looking for. It sucks that studio names no longer carry weight, but I can show you a dozen new Indie games that came out this month, for every genuinely good AAA game released in the past six months. With so many good games untainted by crappy business practices, why even drag EA into the discussion.

Panic over, Microsoft has said that Games for Windows live lives on.
