Re: OS Steam and Computer Gaming Thread

^ Intel always blows AMD away with processors. Don't believe a bit of that. If true, Intel will find a way to adapt.

Of course it's AMD saying that.

They want everyone to buy their products to cover the almost $1.2 billion they lost last year.

Not to mention the $145 million they are down to start this year already.

Kinda funny, because Intel had a net income of $2 billion for Q1 of this year. Income. Their net revenue was $12.6 billion for this quarter (still down from Q4 last year.) Their income was higher than AMD's net revenue.

AMD Q1 = $1.09 billion net revenue, $146 million net loss.
Intel Q1 = $12.6 billion net revenue, $2 billion profit.
nVidia Q1 = $954 million net revenue, $77.9 million profit.

PC Gamer E3 Predictions

Next week, it begins. E3 2013, the boistrous, frenzied annual scrum of announcements, press releases, screenshot dumps, videos, trailers, teasers, gaffes, explosions and controversies. The next console generation has finally gotten off its bum and waddled into the tumult, which at least means we’ll see lots of new games popping up, and we’ll have lots of feet on the floor from our teams on both ends of the Atlantic – you can keep up with all the latest news from the show on our E3 2013 channel.

But how will the PC fare this year? We’ve put together a few thoughts about how it might go down below, but we’d love to know what you think as well. You can let us know in the comments, via Facebook, or on Twitter (tag your suggestions with #pcge3 so we can see them). Without further ado, PC Gamer’s predictions for E3 2013.

Looking forward to hearing more about Witcher 3 and hopefully Dragon Age 3 myself.

Dark Souls II all I care about right now. And more Watch Dogs is always a plus.

Any of y'all run into issues where hidden Steam achievements don't unlock? I usually don't have any problems, but I've played through Cave Story+ a few times and none of the hidden achievements unlock.

Dark Souls II looked pretty sweet on the Xbox One. Hope the PC version is 4x the awesome!

Doubt it.

The PC port was pretty crappy, made slightly better through player mods.

From Software said they would focus on the PC first for DS2...only time will tell.

The DS2 footage looked like Xbox 360, think it was during that segment still before they said 'everything from here on out is Xbox One footage'

Well, PC gaming still looks like the best option for me.

Yeah, they showed it when they were talking about two more games coming for 360.

It's the best option for anyone with half a brain that's not intrested in sports games. But since this is a sports site...

An easy option, considering the quality of most sports games these days.

Re: OS Steam and Computer Gaming Thread

All we need, are sports games with modding capability. Every single sports game can be a ****ty port, but if its got the capability to mod, I'll buy it because it can be made good. Think the NBA 2k series...crappy port; however, modding makes it the best single player sports experience available on any platform.
