Nvidia: “the PC platform is far superior to any console”

4.6
Nvidia’s consumer sales manager Matt Wright has stressed that PC is the gaming platform of choice, and that its functionality makes it “far superior” to consoles. He recognises that some staunch console players may need some extra convincing however.

It follows the UK and European PS4 launch.

Speaking with MCV, Wright said, “We are proposing small form-factor PCs to be a viable alternative to the next-gen consoles. Enthusiast players want the ultimate games system and that is the PC. The PC platform is far superior to any console when it comes to gaming, plus you get all the extra functionality that a computer brings.”

He added that from the outside looking in, PC gaming may appear more complex and technical to the layman, but stressed, “We want to make PC gaming as simple as possible and we think that it already becoming much more relevant and appealing to casual gamers,”

Steam also helps. “Steam now has more users than Xbox Live,” Wright concluded. “There is a whole new generation who grew up playing on PC with titles like Minecraft or World of Tanks. There’s a huge community who love playing their games on PC.”

What’s your take? Are PS4 and Xbox One already obsolete? Is PC the way forward? Let us know what you think below.

But what if it is true, maybe, JUST MAYBE they are superior to any console, but I highly doubt it, but could you blame them for saying it?


They are, PC's are completely built to your specs and that and will always be better than consoles


Yeah, but as you could see NVIDIA is just looking for people to buy there stuff, I would say anything for someone to buy my stuff, same with everyone else.


Maybe consoles should use Nividia


Hmm it would be a cool additive that would help a lot, I bet it would make it faster!


Yeah well it wouldnt make it faster but would help with graphics


Yeah, but I think MS and Sony have it down, in a couple years or so when the new Xbox/PS come out the graphics would be astonishing!


Tech is changing and evolving so fast these days its insane!


Yeah, but the next gen is gonna be revolutionizing, the Xbox 360 to people was like the gen of technology, now we know what they could actually do with technology. It is amazing how great the games do look now compared to back then.
