Yup everyone should make 1.3 lac pcs now. 

 

Series X is an easy pass. :lol:

 

You do realize quite a bit of people have got PCs already? There is no need to build "The Latest and the Greatest". If you are competing with Series S for example - even your old PCs with GTX 970s/1060s will do the job. Heck, even if you buy those GPUs new, they are very cheap. If you are looking specifically to compete against Series X - that's where your money starts to matter.

 

But you said "Where will people play Xbox Games" - not "Where will people play Xbox Games at next-gen levels". So my statement still applies.

Most Xbox games are either not the fanciest graphics toting or well optimized like Gears 4 & 5, I think Forza Horizon series is heavy but not sure.

Your average gaming laptop should do, if building dabba PC is expensive.

1.3 lacs PC also beats having to spend 1 lakh for both the consoles, most people here own PS5 also.

Because you know Jimbo will soon bring PS5 exclusives to PC, rumors are Returnal is coming on Steam.

 

Anyway major reason people buy Series X is because of 3 year XBL gold to game pass conversion for 50rs only and not because of "Xbox Games"

Forza 5 is very well optimized afaik. I've played on even 1070 and it's easily going on Very High/Maxing out at 1440p. For 1080p, the requirements will be far lesser.

 

As far as GPU is concerned, the Gold Conversion trick is irrelevant to PC users AFAIK. The only benefit of Ultimate is that it combines Xbox Online with GP. For PC users, GP for PC works the best, and it still has all the games. Plus, we keep on getting 50 Rs offers every 15 days-1month or so after expiry. Sometimes, people also get 8 months GP for 50 Rs. So it's absolutely fine without the conversion trick.

Day 1 or go home 

 

also - PC guys paying 3000+ for a 4 year old game = :rofl:

 

PS5 seems to be the best option with ps extra

 

then XSX with Gamepass 

 

then PC

 

What are you talking about? There only devs charging 4k for 4 year old games is Sony. Rest almost all devs give their games for 1k-2k Day 1 while charging 4k-5k on consoles (Regional Price zindabad). Not to mention games go on sale much earlier on PC than on consoles (Within a couple of months in fact), and by 1-2 years they are generally 90% off and on bargain bin for 200 Rs.

 

Also GP on PC is almost exactly same as GP on Xbox.

 

Ideal order would be -

 

1) PC (If only some 1-2 parts are required and everything else can be re-used - this is the case most of the time on PC)

2) PS5 (Exclusives Day 1)/XSX (Gamepass)

3) XSS (Pathetic Indian Pricing)

4) PC (If entire system has to be built from ground-up)

 

Honorable MentionNintendo Switch - which is in it's own category and up there for the fans.

You can literally play any game for free. Heck you can even play switch games even before release date on a pc.
