Epic VP: PS4 and Xbox One 'not a generation ahead of PC'

4.7
There's no way that PS4 and Xbox One are "a generation ahead" of high end PCs, according to Epic Games vice president Mark Rein.

He took to Twitter to react to comments made by EA chief technology officer Rajat Teneja, who said last week of the upcoming consoles:
"These architectures are a generation ahead of the highest end PC on the market and their unique design of the hardware, the underlying operating system and the live service layer create one of the most compelling platforms to reimagine game mechanics."

Rein said in response:

cil PC will always be ahead of gaming consoles. There's even new intel CPU's coming out in June or July. Shows how much PC are ahead of consoles. To get a new generation of consoles you have to wait 5 or 6 years, for a new gen of pc you need to wait 2 years even less.

PC > Consoles.


Your logic gave me cancer. How does having a new CPU come out show anything?



To get a new generation CPU you're right about only having to wait 2 years. But what about the $200 you have to spend on the CPU and $100+ on a new motherboard?

You fail, please stop making PC gamers look based.


Your prices gave me cancer.... I wish it was only $200 for a new cpu..

Here is a simple fact consoles have always been for the plug and play gamer
Who are not interested in pcs they just wanna sit there say xbox on and gasp in the glory of 2011 tech
There are also small few who are like "I gotta jtag I'm so 1337" but there's idiots everywhere
But console gamers serve there purpose In world as consumers I guess
But the console vs pc argument is invalid there is limitless possibilitys with a pc
A far cry from the green DVD cases limits on Xbox
You only have to compare a game like minecraft on both sides to understand which is better for gaming

Woof There still gonna be good but 400 for a console when you can get a pc for that that can run everything lawls


a $400 pc will not run many games at all, maybe on low settings, especially compared to the way consoles work




******** i can build a pc that can run most games on medium for 350 just did it for bro


so you built a single core computer with 4GB's of ram and a geforce 210 lol

that's gonna run nothing on **** settings.


Exactly. And not to mention a monitor and OS.


Stop it guys, you're making PC look bad! All the little CoD kiddies will stick with console no matter what it is, no matter how more advanced PC will get! Even though PC is for dons!


Pc is for no life ass geeks lmao. i come home from work. so sum drugs and have a great time on the console.. dons lmfao..


judging by your comment, those "no life ass geeks" out smart you as well. Face it bro, they probably have a better job as well to afford all that hardware. So the question is, why buy a weaker system when you can buy a high-end power house? Logic. Now i'm not saying everyone/or anyone with a console is dumb or has a crap job. I'm just saying more people will chose to be that "no life ass geek" with the high-end PC if they had the cash. Now take your ignorant ass off TTG 'Project_Pataaah', because at the end of the day "no life ass geeks" built the modern age. Wise the fu*k up bro.


Lol no. Geeks that sit on the computer playing games for 16 hours, sleeping for 8 hours then repeating that exact schedule every single day didn't build the modern age. Smart people with visions and goals outside of gaining followers/subscribers on twitch/YouTube built the modern age. Wise the hell out bro.


Ever hear of Bill Gates?


Yep, Bill Gates sits on his computer all day live streaming and uploading gaming montages to YouTube. You're an idiot, shut up.


Bill Gates was considered a no life nerd back in high school and college. He lived at his computer. The one day he and a few other kids at Harvard founded a little software company called Microsoft. I am on the PC and I design software and games. Will I make billions like Bill? Most likely no. But my main goal is to make a profit on something people will like. In my spare time I play games with friends on my PC. I am also in high school at the same time. I am varsity for my high school wrestling team. I have a girlfriend. Point being said PC gamers /users are not no lives.


I really don't give a damn about what sports you play or your girlfriend or what you do for fun. Also, I doubt They called Bill Gates a no life nerd when he is the one who coded a program to schedule classes for students in his high school. He even coded it to put himself in classes with the most females. And I didn't say PC gamers/users were no lives.....

Lol stop. $100 for the OS assuming your aren't pirating it leaves you $250 for parts. Ain't no way in hell you can build a PC for that much that can run games like Crysis 3 on medium.
