Hardcore Gamers! Any Out There?

[R31Nismoid]

I cannot accept a couple of buttons on a controller as hardcore

[bozodos]

not really, console /arcade games tend to be less complex than PC ones, aside from the recent trend of multi platform bullshit which has hindered PC game development

[gfunkk]

hm...lol, pc games are best played on consoles. LOL

your never going to get the same accuracy as a mouse when using a gamepad joystick

[oh-so-swift]

anyhow, this thread is for any one who might be good at those games mentioned in the first post and if anyone is keen to challenge.,

[zebra]

Jesus Christ...you lot are arguing about who hasnt being laid for the longest!

lol

[bozodos]

well people on here are predominantly 360/pc gamers, so you're probably out of luck.

No way, console gaming is hardcore too (dependent on game)... I have owned a NES, GB, NDS, GA, Megadrive, Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1, Xbox, PS3...

I also have owned a PC since 1988 - a Cleveland XT...

I prefer PC but gaming has been huge for retro gamers on consoles...

I used to play competitive CS, CSS, DotA, SC, CoD in obviously their own leagues...

The only games that are pure win on PC over console are FPS and Strategy games... Mouse has way better control than a knob... Especially when you are rolling a Xbox360 or PS3 controller vs a Logitech MX series when it comes to their dpi/sensitivity

Because they probably pick you as some one who would send the videos to randoms for some reason!

Hardcore gaming died when "Realism" FPS games (anything past counterstrike) became the norm.

Seriously, way to handicap and put an artificial skill ceiling in gaming, ugh, ugh. Add console games for extra ugh.

[bozodos]

how does realism impose an artificial skill ceiling? Try playing Operation Flashpoint on Veteran mode for a while lol

[gfunkk]

yeah back in the days of counterstrike 1.3->1.5 was where hardcore gaming was at its peak
