The problem with this and the Politically Correct Gamer website article is the same. Neither of you seem to understand that the term destroys nazi terminology, not supplements it.C.S.Strowbridge said:So let me get this straight... A gamer website said that people should stop using Nazi terminology to describe themselves and in response these people double-down on the Nazi imagery. (Google PC Master Race Flag if you don't believe me.)
And in response... Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw is siding with the fucking Nazis.
What the fuck happened to Yahtzee? Or was he always like this and I only recently noticed this?
Also thanks for the flag image. though this one is better: https://www.google.com/search?q=troll+pride+world+wide&tbm=isch
These guys had the flag for decades now.
I think PC Master Race is the best term there will be and no amount of whining is going to force people to change language. it didnt work for soviets it wont work for a few bloggers.MarsAtlas said:I think "PC Gaming Bourgeois" is a much better counterpart to "Console Peasantry" than "PC Gaming Master Race" ever was, as not only does it contrast better, but "Bourgeois", to me, is much more obviously self-depricating, as Bourgeois has never been used as a positive identifier.
Thoughts, anybody?
Also the current hierarchy in PCMR is PC owners are kings. heres the image:
The correct term is Pea See Mustard Rice, because Consoles need to Ketchup.NuclearKangaroo said:hence the fact right now it keeps being substituted steadily by the term "mustard race".
Also the term "mustard race" originated from youtube comments as an attempt to insult pc gamers as well.
The concept of preference is not exactly what you think here. you can prefer to drink buffalo urine, but that does not preclude us from making fun out of you drinking urine.Aesir23 said:Explaining why the consoles are a bit shit is fine. It strays into elitism territory when some PC users forget the concept of preference, act as if console users have a mental deficiency, or act as if console users are holding back gaming as a whole.
Also a lot of console users do act like they have a mental deficiency, though admittedly far less in these forums where that is usually moderated out.
As far as console gaming holding gaming back - absolutely true. you dont need to go far back, just look at how the lack of memory in last generation pretty much killed AI an everything else dependent on RAM on every title released for consoles.
please tell me your just baiting.Silentpony said:A quick Google search shows that an X-Box 360 cost roughly $180-200. A decent price, actually. Little pricey, but I'd pay it.
But a top-of-the-line AlienWare Desktop? $5,000.
So if Eastern Europeans really needs to play The Witcher III on a $5,000 rig, then truly God bless you. I'll make do on a 360(Waiting a month or two extra, to be fair), and do something else with my extra $4,800.
A PC that will run games at the equivalent of 360 will costs just as much as your used 360 costs here. and noone who cares at all about where their money are going buys Alienware, ever.
A rig to run Witcher 3? My 700 dollar one will run it just fine, and at better graphics than your 500 dollar Xbone.

And yes i am asking only to shoot every argument you're going to produce down.
