This is a pretty interesting video that I watched today, I was looking for a video of Dark Souls that was recently announced as being ported over to the PC from the console and wanted to see if I could find a video of a PC actually running it or a trailer etc. I did fine a couple of extremely short videos less than 2 mins and thought not worth posting, and then I noticed this one which had video footage of Dark Souls from the console version, but also a pretty good commentary on why the PC should not be underrated and how much of a money machine it could be for existing and potential developers for the platform.
Some good comments in there and yes, less than a year ago I did not even own a Steam account, and I have racked up a good few games at some insane prices over that period some really new and a few older games like 10 years etc and found the service to be excellent and I intend to spend more money at there store due to convenience, bargains offered. And as I consider myself a long term gamer as in been using a PC for at lest 20 years, a lot of games I have bought over that time frame on occasions I have nostalgia moments and pretty much I can still load and play a really old game (say 15 years old) and run with few hitches, it may not always look pretty but even a search on our friend google can sometimes offer solutions or even a wealth of mods, alterations and patches that normally you would never dream of existing to get the game running.
Viva le PC!
