Why is it so difficult to understand that people want the best looking and performing games more than a few exclusives that they don't care about? Here's what I've played lately:

RS Siege
Cities Skylines
NBA 2k18
Far Cry 5
Ghost Recon Wildlands
BF1
Forza Horizon 3
AC Origins

All X enhanced, all look great.

It all sort of fell apart once people started pointing out that using the power of The Cloud for the psychics in your multiplayer game was a bad idea because some people have bad internet which means the game would be a stuttering disaster whilst it tried to figure out how a building blew up.

Then they said that multiplayer wouldn't have the cloud based destruction thing and it would only be for single player.

Then they had a 2 minute long teaser trailer with Terry Crews that showed zero gameplay footage.

Now it's delayed until next year at which point it will probably be cancelled.

I sit at a desk for work so I totes don’t want to sit at a desk for another 1-3 hours when I get home and want to play shooty mans.

I like my One X. I also like my PS4 and it’s VR.

They offer different things but my Xbox has my friends.

i have bad company 2 on my xbox one and am absolutely down to play it whenever. last time i played a few months ago there were still a decent amount of people on, and it wasn't just a bunch of grognard poopsockers but instead a healthy mix of new and old players of various skill levels.

Same but I use mine for VR mostly. I have my PC hooked to the TV and using big picture it's almost a console experience, but it seems like every game has some little idiosyncrasy (having to reconfigure the controller, mess with graphics options, etc). I usually find myself just reaching for the xbonx or playstation instead. First world problems :rolleyes:

I haven’t owned a gaming PC in like 10 years. Is the 1080 still the best video card? I feel like I’ve heard about it a few years now I would have figured they’d come out with a new one to lust after.

I think the 1080Ti is the best of what is meant to be consumer-level, I forget if Nvidia has a Titan card above that currently. Nvidia apparently said it would be a while before new stuff got released.

And of course you can get multiple 1080Ti's for gaming/mining purposes too. :pcgaming:
