Why do they have to always pick on PC Gamers with articles\threads like this? This is practically worse than the "The PC Is dying" meme. They say that they are tired of PC Gamers taking pot shots at them but it looks to me they they are the ones taking pot shots with things like this.
I wish the hate would stop. Especially since PCs are used to make mods and even the games themselves. I don't hate console gamers and I may play a console or two every once in a while. I just hate the attitude. But yeah things like this always happen when there are two or more things that are percieved as in competition by some people. Just like coke and pepsi.. or any other such thing. This whole thing is pretty immature even the article itself.
They make a few good points about the benefits of a PC but they liberally pepper it with things that put down PC Gamers in an immature way and it doesn't make the site look professional. They don't even have the facts right with some of those things... for example.. GamerTags (and Live) are coming to the PC so they shouldn't even be talked about there. Also I'm a PC Gaming fan but I don't necessarily agree with things like "Will Wright is a bigger genius than Shigeru Miyamoto." In fact the whole article is littered with generalizations that aren't necessarily true. All in all I give them a thumbs down for this article.
Some people at Inside Mac Games might yell at me saying it's just a joke article but I don't care. Sometimes things meant as jokes just aren't funny and I don't like the idea that someone could say whatever and then afterwards say it's a joke when someone takes them to task.
