PC owners: After the consoles hit, where are you getting multiplats?

A bunch of cool multiplats are coming out, and I was just curious to know where people who own gaming PCs are going to get their games. I know it's several months before we will be able to check out comparison videos etc., but do you see yourself getting everything on one particular platform?

Graphics aside, I was thinking that if you had a PS4 and a Vita, it would be neat to be able to play your games via remote play when you weren't at home, and that might be worth the graphical tradeoff.

What do you plan on doing?

I don't care for good multiplats. As long they are released on consoles I see no reason to whine.

PC.

I don't have any devices that are 720p... except maybe my phone. My monitor is 1440p, an unsupported resolution on consoles, and I'll be playing ALL my games at 60 FPS. No compromises.

PLus, it looks like some multiplats are starting to warm up to the rift.

I would never buy a console for multi-plats. They are always inferior on those platforms, from lower quality graphics, to lower performance, to forced gamepad/motion controls use to lack of mods. Deifnitely not worth it.

For exclusives? Maybe. In like 3 years when there ar emore than a couple.

All multiplats on the PC... if I end up getting a PS4 (or any other console), it'll be some 3 years after its release.

Well, my GTX 560 does fine on the games I have now, like Skyrim, Just Cause 2 , etc., but the truth is . . .

I'd have to spend $500 at least, to upgrade my processor and gpu, to get it  to PS4 levels, so this coming generation, it looks like I'm going with PS4, and maybe a few PC games.

Multiplats will always be best on PC for the options more than anything and the ability to tweak the game how you like

I'll be using the PS4 for anything I can't get on PC

PC of course. There's no reason to get multiplats on consoles.

The only thing that floats the boat for consoles is exclusives.

SW posters: Is it possible for you to come up with an original thread?

next year

A: i be getting ps4

B: getting AMD new line up of 8000's cards

depending who can run multiplats compare to my 6870 is the winner.  IF ps4 wins then i most likely be going back to PC when i do upgrade my PC

I always buy multiplats on the PC because they cost less, run better, and will be backwards compatible with the next gen.PurpleMan5000

PC i have no reason to buy a console. I couldn't care about most of sony sequals, and most xbox games are coming to pc 

What do you make of the claims that Watch Dogs is going to have a superior draw distance with more pedestrians and cars on PS4? I read something about it, but I wonder if they meant respective to the Xbox One. Is it possible that the draw distance will be superior on the PS4 than it will on PC? That doesn't sound likely, but I was wondering. Is the DDR5 all that?donalbane

always on pc, if there is no pc version i will get it on my ps4.

I have a better PC than the PS4 and i will be playing at 1440p. Its nice to know that i can defiantly play these games in the future aswell. Next consoles might not be BC again. PS4 will use for exclusives.

i think i'm not going to buy any of the consoles until a game i want comes out that i can't get on pcJandurin

I will see how multiplats perfome on my pc first, props get some launch multiplats on ps4 though.

On my PC...why is this a question?

Seeing how i got my first killer gaming rig, i'm gonna be getting most of my multiplats on PC through Steam if i can. 

my PS4 will be for Sony exclusives and probably EA games. 

I say EA games because Origin is a massive pain in the @ss over here in Saudi and the digital version is actually more expensive then buying the hard copy disc from a store. and the stores here already have a mark up higher then what you get in the US. 

If I get a job by then, I plan on Buying a PS4 and building a new PC probably shortly after the various consoles launch and playing my multiplats on that.

I usually get my Multiplats from Sony Consoles.

My Nintendo and Xbox Devices are for Exclusives (or in the 360's case, cheaper Used Games).

Probably PS4. I have a myriad of little reasons for doing so but I'm sure none of those are good enough to list here.

Ill stick with my pc since most multiplats are plagued with issues or just not as good prior to modding, although I like your point about the vita but I don't want to buy one myself.

I won't be buying either console for a long time.

I'll just get a new GPU.

If a game is on PC then 99.9999% chance I'll buy it on PC.

I'd only be inclined to buy a multiplat on a console if I had enough friends who were also going to buy it there, or if for whatever reason it has more features on consoles that I actually want.

For FPS games? PC, of course. I like mouse and keyboard with FPS games. I bought a keyboard converter for my PS3 so I can play FPS games with mouse and keyboard. It'll be the same with the PS4 unless developers add the support natively.

I plan to use my PC as my primary gaming device. I'll probably pick up a Wii U down the road for when my buddies come over. Nintendo gets party games right.
