No it's okay xbone, you can keep that one.

All these on PC Sunset Overdrive + Forza Horizon 2 + Quantum Break + Halo HD Collection = No need to buy an Xbox One

If Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony all released their games onto PC it'd probably be a lot better for the gamers as we'd have more liberty of choice, free online play (except some have fees) and modding for infinite replayability. Oh yeah, not forgetting way better graphics.

That would turn all the consoles into paperweight, so you know for certain it's not gonna happen ever. Consoles nowadays pretty much exist solely because they keep a tight grip to their exclusives, they are glorified PCs for most of everything else otherwise.

Completely disagree. Consoles are much less hassle and much easier to get into. There's always going to be people who prefer the simplicity of consoles. I'm sure releasing all console games on PC would hurt sales, but at the same time I don't think it would be their downfall.

Additionally, it's not like they would be making less money if they released their games on PC either. The profit lies in the games, and not in the hardware, so it would work out just fine.

Erm...I know it's your word against mine on that last one, but I think this would REALLY cause their downfall. They would just buy a small PC for under their desktop and use that as a dedicated gaming machine (kind of what steamOS is doing, but not limited to one service).

The Real Jdbye: it's a good point. I disagree with it, but it's not that easy to explain why. With an ecosystem (xbone, ps4, wiiu, PC, android, ...) comes a certain standard of what quality and price/quality is. If all the games would be playable on the same device, those games have far more competition from one another. And especially if there is plenty of supply (which there is if you merge all games), then demand needs to be created in price drops (like steam does). The end result is that merely putting those exclusive games on a platform, the average price is quickly going to lower. To the point where it is no longer making a profit.

True. Microsoft and Sony can released their games on PC depending on what games but Nintendo will never release the games onto PC at all. Never!

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
