Ornstein reacted to Albatross in Luke is so MLG and elitist
Yea. A public figure who influences a large sum of people with his video openly supports a rather distasteful concept of superoity
Let us worship the idea of acting better than others for what they play on.
Oh wait...people already do. <_<
I love ya Luke, I do, but I seriously hope you don't actually believe console players are peasants or that they sit around eating Doritos and drinking Mountain Dew all day playing CoD (degrading someone for what they play...). That would seriously disappoint me.

Not sure what they have against Swype input. I use it almost exclusively and it works great.

You're not alone, Linus. I put my parents in my phone by their actual name.

We need to stop the xbox vs playstation and mac vs windows war. It really comes down to what you prefer; don't let other people tell you what hardware/software is good.

Agreed 100%. Console/platform warz are dumb. Just play on whatever makes you happy.

To add to this, I'll share something I posted in another thread, but is very relevant to this discussion:
I showed a friend of mine how cheap even relatively new games were on PC (Steam, Origin, GMG, GoG etc.) and it didn't persuade him to move to PC gaming at all. He has a Macbook for his everyday PC needs and an Xbox One for gaming. He doesn't have a lot of time to game and doesn't need or want a massive games library. He's totally content to play one or two games to completion (when he has the time, a little bit at a time). Also, to him, the Xbox One graphics are "good enough" so long as the game itself is held up by it's own merits (game play mechanics, story etc.). He's certainly more than a casual gamer, but not as hard-core as I am (I'll play for hours on end). The fact remains; he just doesn't care that games are cheaper on PC, nor does he care to have the absolute best graphics/frame rate. He would rather just simply pop a game in, play it and enjoy it. And I know he's not the only one who takes this approach to gaming.
Another friend of mine, very different from the one I was just talking about, owns a PS3, Xbox 360 and a high-end gaming PC. I jokingly called him a "multi-plat whore" this morning (he laughed) because he said he's looking forward to GTAV for PC, even though he already bought and played the PS3 version when it first came out. This isn't the first game he's purchased for multiple platforms either. Usually he does this because of exclusive content, but my point here is; that's at least $50+ a pop for 2 different versions of the same game. He loves taking advantage of Steam sales for sure, but to him, it's worth spending the money for both of those games. To myself and my other friend, we would consider that a waste. If it brings him enjoyment, who am I to say he's wrong or tell him how to spend his own money?
So this is why I've said before and I'll say it again; the argument over which platform is cheaper/easier is irrelevant because it cannot be applied to everyone objectively. It's subjective and boils down to the individual's personal preferences and situation.
PC gaming may be objectively better in most aspects, however that doesn't mean it's the best platform for everyone.

Terrible attitude to take. If something in the system is obviously broken and costing people their lives, it should be worked on and fixed, not just accepted.
