PC's because in the end even your 'exclusive' console games are probably gonna end up being played with an emulator at some point or 're-mastered' and re-sold elsewhere like Steam.

Except, yeah. There are still TONS of exclusives from old consoles that to this day cannot be emulated properly on ANY pc and will most likely never receive a port to anything else.

With no "both" option, dumb poll is dumb.

I dont own a ds

then don't play ds games duh
i could already tell you don't own a ds since only psychopaths would choose to play ds games on a 3ds if they had both

PC is better than console in most ways, but:
Exclusives
Cheaper
Not as hard to set up (you WILL run into problems in some games on PC)
Also i like playing in my couch I don't like playing all my games in a desk

I treat my Gaming PC like a console. It's a laptop that pretty much remains hooked up to my big screen TV at all times, and I use a Dualshock 4 with a Mayflash adapter. I don't even own a desk I sit on my couch. But I have consoles too.

Examples?

If you untick "Perfect", here's a list of 2,646 PS2 games that are not able to be properly emulated. I'm sure you'll find some exclusives in that list. Do you need a link to lists for other consoles, or nah? Night night, Scottie. https://pcsx2.net/compatibility-list.html

Exclusives, absolutely. But I wouldn't say console gaming is cheaper. For the initial purchase sure, for a PC that is the equivalent of the console it is being matched to. But in the long run Steam and others often have better pricing on games. The desk thing is a point that needs to be wiped from the face of existence. I game on my PC and TV perfectly fine from my couch with either a wireless controller or wireless kb/m.

They're still playable tho, but if you untick "playable" that number jumps down all the way to 38

If I had to pick one and one only I would pick PC, but otherwise I'd rather have both.

Except playable does not = zero major graphical bugs. It means.... it's playable.

Yes, but you can still get through the game start to finish

 

[D34DL1N3R]

Yes, but you can still get through the game start to finish

That is not the point. Also, playable from start to finish can also mean playable from start to finish at say 15 fps AND major bugs. So if you want to continue on with thinking that a PC can just simply replace xxx console because you can just emulate everything it had to offer regardless if it runs and looks like shit... feel free. I will still disagree 100%.

cock soul

 

[lexarvn]

If there was the option for both, that's what I'd select. On average, I probably spend close to the same amount of play time on each really

 

[Julie_Pilgrim]

Lmao everyone just went "both"

Listen, I LOVE the PlayStation 2 and play mine almost daily, but you're misunderstanding the way the emulator compatibility list works. You do realize it's based on community contributions, and that many games have not received updates on that list in multiple years and are likely running better than they were when the last compatibility reports were filed, right? PCSX2 on adequate hardware can run almost every PS2 game (I might be exaggerating just a little bit here...) from start to finish without any obvious issues. Problems usually come from hacks or trying to upscale or something else unnecessary.

Listen. I speak from my own experience with PCSX2 and many other different emulators. I'm 49 yrs old and have been "PC'ing" since before I was 10. Please don't act like I'm clueless, misunderstanding, and need an education or explanation. I'm completely aware of how the list works. It was used as a reference point for proof that not all games are perfectly emulatable (which is STILL a fact), and I just chose PCSX2 randomly. But thanks. My opinion still stands. A PC can never properly emulate every game that has never received a PC port. They can not just simply replace consoles for that reason alone. Period.

lol, ok. I never said it could, but if that's what you got out of that, fine. I won't debate you because you are misrepresenting my point.

As you were misrepresenting mine.
