From my experience, I can't trust that thing, especially when it comes to MMO's.lacktheknack said:
You can't go by those I ran mine for a few games and it said I couldn't Run it because I didn't have enough RAM and my video cards shaders weren't up to par. The thing is I needed 2 GB RAM I had 4 and my Graphics card exceeded every requirement. Needless to say I could play it No problem.lacktheknack said:

They are more efficient it's a known fact, a PC with the same specs as a PS 3 or 360 could not run half of the games a PS 3 or 360 could even with console quality.AnotherAvatar said:
They won't need to dumb it down at least as far as combat and game mechanics go. The controls are pretty simple it's the RAM that may be an issue IMO with so many enemies and players in one area. They do have DC U and MAG tho so I don't know.Xdeser2 said:

"A PC with the same specs as a console"...disgruntledgamer said:
Hmm, okay yeah, you have an analytically correct statement there, so I won't argue it.disgruntledgamer said:
Do you pay attention to the conversation or just look for excuses to rage out? He's talking about Guild Wars 2 and whether or not it could run on a console. The fact that consoles stretch their specs more is relevant, how anyone would or wouldn't build their PC is not.Syzygy23 said:
So PCs can do more with more, that's not what the OP is talking about and it has nothing to do with Guild Wars 2 being on consoles. He's talking about putting Guild Wars 2 on a console, and in general consoles do more with less in terms of specs.AnotherAvatar said:
I mean if you really want to get into it that doesn't apply with every game. Some PC games are optimized far better for PC than they could be on console, and as I pointed out sometimes this is due to the hardware limitations of the consoles. Great example of this are any of the recent Bethesda RPGs, which all run far better on PCs thanks to the mod scene. There are tons of other games that I could bring up, and probably even better examples as these games are glitch-filled on any system. Basically any game that has been properly worked on for the PC will usually run far better on it... I mean I don't think you'd call a more efficiently running PS3 game an unfair match because it's on a stronger system than the 360 would you?Rooster Cogburn said:
That's just as irrelevant as your last example. There are a million things PCs are more efficient at, that has nothing to do with the fact that consoles, generally speaking, make more efficient use of the low specs they are limited to. That's what the OP was talking about and that is what is relevant to putting Guild Wars 2 on a console. I admit the truth of whatever you're talking about but it's totally beside the point and serves no purpose but to argue PC vs. console for no reason.AnotherAvatar said:
That's hardly ALL you were doing. First you said this:
Obviously interpreting his statement as a PC vs. Console thing when it really wasn't. Then you fell back to an example for why PCs are more efficient at other things even though console vs. PC is irrelevant to the OPs comment and the topic of this thread. You did not have to make it a PC vs. console thing just because someone made the smallest hint that a console might be better at something.AnotherAvatar said:
Trying to start a fanboy flamefest makes one of us insecure but it's not me. Did you really just take a jab at consoles and accuse me of insecurity in the same breath? How hard can you project?
