Yeah because mechanical keyboards and mice don't run into the hundreds. smh

Is it okay to report someone here for being a general tool? @Mods

You have put a lot of information out there. I'm a PC gamer, and I thought it might be useful to collate and summarise for the benefit of people like myself, in the market for a new controller.


The Elite Xbox One/PC controller + GOW4 is an overpriced deal because...

-Buying an expensive controller is like buying weight loss methods or drugs
-Newly released PC games are £20-£25
-While comparable in price, the cost of optional PC peripherals vs optional Console peripherals is invalid
-Extortion means as many words into the dictionary definition as suits my argument
-If you buy a controller for £100 you're an idiot. If you disagree with me, you are bad at games!
-The best available deal for a product is not a reason to vote it up
-An PC built for less than the cost a PS4/Xbox One will run the same games at double/triple the framerate.
(And you can do other things on it too!)

This is a deal thread. No one wants to read this pc-favouring spiel. I play on both, no point in favouring one over the other. I can't play Undertale/Papers Please on console, and i can't play Bloodborne, Halo, Mario etc on pc. Swings and roundabouts.

Heat added. After all, it's prob the best pad you can buy for pc :wink:

A controller and a game costs £100??!?!!?

That's insane wow, genuinely shocked lol. Consoles are a joke man.

Have a look at hottest gaming deal of the week.

Yeah because mechanical keyboards and mice don't run into the hundreds. smh

What has that got to do with it? My spare budget PC can run games at triple the FPS of a console and I can do so much more with a PC.

You also don't NEED a mechanical keyboard and there is a tonne of gaming mice that aren't too expensive such as the rival. You've compared the price of a game and a controller to a mouse and a keyboard too, very intelligent.

I can get about 4-5 games that have just been released on pc for £99 you Joker.

Whats FPS got to do with comparing mechanical keyboards to controllers?

Because he is comparing a mouse and keyboard with the price of a controller and a game.

While a PC maybe a little more expensive than a PS4/Xbox to set up now (due to keyboard/mouse) there are several factors at play.

A PC itself can be made for cheaper/the same price and run games better than a PS4 and Xbox, with ease, at double and even triple the frame rate, and thats for the same price.

There is also extra factors with a PS4/Xbox, most people will buy a great TV, just like PC users buy a 144Hz monitor.

I'm not here to argue with you, because well, simply everything I've said is fine, and £99.99 for an Xbox controller and one game is extortion, lol.

Why have PC World featured a picture of the XB1 game's box? Surely the offer features the PC version of the game given that it's a controller also designed for use on PC and it's being sold by PC World?

Edit:
Ah, I see that it's Currys PC World as opposed to PC World so the offer is presumably for the console crowd.
