I have a PS3 and no intention to buy a PS4. You're just too narrowminded to entertainment n the notion of different perspectives.Alex;3848042 said:
I also don't mind paying for things I actually use and buy games for cheap. Downloading games would not represent a significant benefit.

This whole discussion started because we were talking about the next gen version of FIFA. That won't be on PS3. That's the whole point - it has nothing to do with narrow-mindedness.
I have consoles and a PC. I nearly always have. I'm not the one completely dismissing something:
You are.
I'm not saying getting a console is wrong (as I said I have a 360). I'm saying that not considering a PC just because you "dont like PC gaming" is narrow minded. That's not a reason, it's a statement. A reason would be giving reasons why for that statement. And most of them have already been refuted in this thread.
If you said you didn't like PC gaming because you find consoles faster start times (if you leave your PC off, which I don't), lack of installation, etc more convenient, that may make sense. If you said (as Mus did) that you find PC parts unreliable (though I've never had an issue with any PC of mine being unreliable - and I leave them on all the time), that makes sense. But you didn't. You said "you don't like PC gaming" - and as per this thread, gaming on PC can be exactly as per a console (with more possibilities due to the mod community etc).
The discussion started after Mus suggested you get a PS4, Nady said that he believed a PC saved you money in the long run, and then you questioned how it would save you money. You then tried to derail the discussion when we (Nady and I) answered your question, by stating that you already had a PS3 - which was irrelevant to the original point. And now, after dismissing a PC without any valid reasoning - and all your points generally proven wrong, you claim I'm narrow minded.
Nice one.

I have FIFA 15, FM 2015, Tomb raider (last one), GTA V, Watchdogs, Asetta Corsa, Dirt 3, Far Cry 4, Grid 2, Grid Autosport, Project Cars, PES 15 on my PC for $50 (I paid only for FIFA 15 on boxing week sale. All the rest $0)
All these would cost you $700+ on console.

This might be your point. Hence narrow-mindedness, you can only wrap your head around your way of seeing things. Or perhaps it's poor social skills, I dunno.
I am allowed to not like somerthing and not want to participate in it and, lo and behold, I don't have to justify myself nor even have a reason. It has nothing to do with you or your point of view.
You are.
Why do I have to consider a PC? I don't want to play games on PC, and since it's my life I can do whatever I want while, as I said, requiring no justification or reasoning on my part. I am aware of the benefits, they do not matter to me, you cannot grasp that because you have reached your own conclusion and cannot envisage someone else reaching a different one. It was a statement, yes, because I wasn't justifying myself; I wasn't participating in an argument.
Again, this is superfluous in my mind. I don't like it, I don't use it, that is really the end of it. It has no bearing on anyone than myself.
What? I love how I 'tried to derail' the conversation someone was having with me. It presupposes that you know what I was referring to (a byproduct of your narrow-mindedness) and that I was trying to maliciously subterfuge your pleasant conversation. What Nady said assumed I would take Mus' suggestion. My post was not asking for the benefits of PC gaming but me questioning Nady's suggestion on its own because I had not intention to listen to Mus. Since I have no intention to buy a PS4, Nady's advice doesn't apply, since I cannot save any money by buying something I did not want or intended to buy.
I stated I had a PS3 to say that I already had a gaming platform so, it being bought, I cannot save any money off it by buying an additional platform. I stated this earlier. You could not grasp this because are narrow-minded. You have assumed I was talking about the same thing as you because you are narrow-minded. You have been arguing with your own illusions of what you think I was saying.
I have not made any points at all, I have no idea what you're talking about. The few things I've said are either irrefutable (buying a gaming PC I do not want would not constitute any savings) or matters of preference (seperating work station from gaming). Either way, neither having been addressed. You are living in your own world. A narrow one.

I think I spent about 300 on my PS3 and something between 10-30e per game. I think I have like 15 games so that's 450e as a higher-than-reality estimate. That's a total of 750, more or less. As I said before I don't mind paying for things I actually use, but even if I did the cost has been minimal and to avoid it you'd have had to convince me years ago. Right now there is nothing to save, like I said.

So you want to play Fifa with its new features but dont wanna buy the new platform required to get those new features.
So I guess your whole point was that Fifa 16 on old gen is just squad update but it was possible to have many of those new features (It its possible) but they didn't.
So at the moment, best choice for you is to buy PES 16 on PS3 instead of Fifa. Its cheaper but better than old gen Fifa.

I would definitely prefer EA to update the PS3 version but I certainly won't be inclined to purchase a newgen machine just for that and the current array of available games.
I don't like having my gaming and work on the same machine. I have no horse in the consoles-PC race.

Fuck you're a little whiney bitch Az.
Nothing you've said in that long post validates your stance. You've basically said you don't want to because you don't want to and don't have to justify yourself to anyone. In which case, fuck off. Don't post on a forum which is about opinions. Don't ask questions, such as the one you asked Nady which started this whole thread.
As for not wanting to consider a PC, that's fine. But don't then claim I'll narrow minded for giving you reasons why you should.I can certainly envisage people reaching a different conclusion, did you even read my post? I stated that I understood Mus's position for one.
The part of your post suggesting that your questioning of Nady's suggestion was because you had dismissed Mus's shows YOUR narrow mindedness - again. EVERYONE here didn't interpret it that was. Someone who studies language knows it's about context and interpretation, so perhaps you should work on how you use language, as everybody else in this thread apparently misunderstood what you were saying. The alternative is that you were being purposefully misleading, simply to create conflict or confusing, which seems much more along the lines of something you would so.
Again, me being narrow minded had nothing to do with it. You didn't mention you had a PS3 until much later in the conversation. Even then, that was irrelevant to the original point - which was buy a PS4/PC. Rather than saying you weren't going to get anything to play next gen games, you continued along the lines of dismissing the PC - simply because I was supporting it. And of cost you would dismiss it with actual reasons - just staying you don't like them....and it's me who is narrow minded.
This is what you do throughout the forums and why so many people think you're a knob. You state things in a way to purposefully mislead so you can then rewrite history and suggest that wasn't your initial point.
I'm sure Nady and Mus believed you were doing exactly what I was talking about. Not my narrow mindedness, your self obsession, that had you in your own little world. If you think something, you need to say it. It's a forum, not a telepathy website.

You're the one who is whining and bitching.
This is a soccer gaming forum. You do not get to dictate what this forum is about and what people can and cannot post. I have no stance, you're just insisting on making me fit into what you want to discuss. I have made no attempts to validate my stance, I don't have to. I asked Nady a question, not you, for one. I asked Nady one thing, you interpreted it differently. I understand that it was interpreted differently, but that doesn't mean I did anything wrong, and you're just bitching for no reason. I have no idea what your issue is.
I didn't ask for your reasons. I didn't call you narrow minded because of that anyway, I did it because you are. I explained it earlier, if you don't understand it maybe you're too narrowminded to fathom my reasoning. You understood Mus' position, but he played your game of justifying himself. You cannot deal with me not explaining things to you and you cannot understand it.
This is stupid. I didn't dismiss the fact that my post was misinterpeted, I can understand that (so it has nothing to do with narrow-mindedness). I just meant something different, and whether it was understood at first or later or never isn't a big deal. Once it was properly explained to you I don't see why you keep arguing. The whole 'we're all in agreement against you' is faulty and infantile. You are the only one arguing with me. You're not a child, and even if everyone misunderstood me (and even if it was because I didn't express myself properly), it's no big deal and no one cares but you. I have since explained myself but you keep arguing.
The part about me being malicious is just gold. You're basically Lee, you know? It's paranoia, man. It's also really funny because you called me stupid and then when I called you narrow-minded you lose your shit.
LOL! And I never use lol. I dismissed the PC because you were for it? Jesus, you're paranoid, arrogant and stupid. I have stated that I had a PS3 many times here, and this conversation, whose structural integrity you're so attached to, started because I was talking about oldgen FIFA. Either way, it's irrelevant. I dismissed PC gaming because I don't like it, and that's the end of it. I didn't attempt to argue anything because I have no reason to. I don't care about PC vs PS4, I won't be buying either. I really don't get what your issue is.
And you're narrow-minded because you can't fathom reaching different conclusions to yours, or not explaining things to you logically. You cannot fathom that someone might mean something different than what you interpret and become adversarial when your stance is rejected. You are narrow-minded. That you're so upset by it makes me think of the old saying: 'the lady doth protest too much'. I didn't make such a big deal of you calling me stupid. Maybe you should stop dishing if you can't handle anything in return, this is not the first time either.
You're a child. I'm sure you have chats with the entire forum on what a big stupid meanie I am. I am not going to resort to your petty argumentation line, but it's childish and makes you look like a moron because you have no real basis for it. Again, this is is you assuming everyone shares your opinion (narrow-mindedness). So you're suggesting that my initial point was that PC gaming is ass and when you came with your superior mental capabilities I swapped out? Right. Again, it's just you insisting that you were right all along because it's easier to think that I'm an evil evil man than that you might have been wrong (narrow-mindedness).
No I don't. I can be as vague or as explicit as I want. I wasn't understood initially, no big deal. I explained myself eventually, and that really is the end of it. I'm sure Nady and Mus did think that, too, but they aren't harping about it and aren't losing their shit. I didn't dismiss the possibility of what I said being misunderstood, it's entirely reasonable. But I don't see why that is such an issue for you.
Anyway, please calm down because I have no more mod powers for you to strip and would prefer it if you didn't remove any of my other forum privileges.

Nothing. I have not played FM since 2012, which is when I started talking uni seriously.
Not to say that I won't play FM on PC, I might, but I don't really consider it 'gaming' as it is not such a taxing game and I can play it while doing other stuff. Before you lose your shit, yes, I know it is PC gaming, but again, I don't really care.

This is something an elderly person would say (that plays games).
You could literally install your games, create a shortcut folder for them and then instead of booting up your playstation you can double click the shortcut on your PC. I don't get what's so bad about that? Is it a money thing (buying a machine powerful enough or with enough space)?
Do you think they slow down the PC or give you viruses or something?
I did not give my stance. I have none. Xaviesta states things with no foundation and has a track record of basing his opinion on bullshit. In this case my opinion on PC vs consoles is irrelevant because I have an oldgen machine and an old pc that can't run games and a nee laptop I just want to use for work. Otherwise games distrsct me and the nee laptop isn't equipped for new games anyway.
