Gameloft's Asphalt 6 was played at the World Cyber Games championship in 2011, let's see if iOS games will be recognized in 2012

Lol what if MC3 was in the WCG this year? That would be awesome.

I've actually never heard of this before.

I've actually never heard of this before.

It's basically a huge intercontinental online tournament for popular online games like CS 1.6, Crossfire, Starcraft II, League of Legends, WoW, and Tekken 6 (Those are the official WCG games). I used to play crossfire a lot and thats where I found out about the WCG.

I've never really gotten into PC gaming myself, but I'm going to assume this is a big deal. Those Gameloft games though... lolwut?

Asphalt 6 is a pretty old game, surely this was played casually in between rounds on their iPhones. There are other better racing games than asphalt that the competive players could play...well, competively

PC gaming is better than Console gaming, by far. If you have the money, buy a nice PC (building your own is always better for gaming) and try it out.

PC gaming being better than console gaming is pure opinion. I'm not a huge fan of the idea that PCs essentially become outdated as soon as you buy a new one. I prefer spending $300-500 on a system and know that I'll be able to run every game the way they were supposed to for at least the next 5 years. PCs are also sorely lacking in JRPGs, which is one of my favorite genres.

I actually prefer console gaming because I'm more used to it. But I own both.

Some people (like me) simply lack the money/knowledge to set up high-end PC equipment, hence why consoles are popular for their easy accessibility and relatively cheap price. Plus, we get great exclusives, like Uncharted, Killzone, God of War, etc. It looks like it'll just be me and my PS3 for a long time.

I heard that PS3 has problems playing BF3. Is that right? I heard there was bad input lag or something.

I wouldn't be surprised, considering how terrible the framerate drops in Skyrim PS3 were. I'll still be sticking to my game consoles though.

It's definitely gotten better after the recent patch.

You are cheating yourself a lot of fun and options by playing on a console rather than a comp. Games on a comp are a lot less limited since you have access to game files and can write a mod for the game more easily than a console.

You are cheating yourself out of a lot of genres besides the typical FPSes and RTSes by not getting a console.

Any person with a console.

[cristian1993]

Implying people are gonna take the extra step to make games fun. If said game doesn't make me come back for more then I do not want to waste time on how I can make it more fun.

[cristian1993]

Sorry for the triple post but why are we arguing about consoles vs. pc, I though this thread was about mobile games at WCG.

I have almost all consoles since 1995.
