Honestly, if I don't play what's likely to be the best game since The Witcher 3, because it isn't coming to my preferred platform soon enough, I feel as if I'm really only hurting myself.

I'll almost definitely buy a cheap Xbox One on Black Friday (or used even sooner), play it (and BLOPSIIII actually sounds fun), then sell it in January. ***

While I think it's a little silly to boycott GTA V and RDR 2 because of a delayed release on PC, it's still a crap move on their part and his right.

What's more silly is the sudden swarm of defenders leaping out of the woods.

I've seen plenty of other posts about boycotting this or that, but don't anyone dare throw a mean glare at the prom queen of games.

“The absence of a free press in Saudi Arabia means that M.B.S.”—Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman—“has had virtually zero experience lying to reporters,” Sanders reportedly told one of her aides. “The learning curve is going to be steep.”

In perhaps her most withering comment on the state of the Saudis’ lying, Sanders said, “These clowns could never have gotten Kavanaugh confirmed.

It's gonna fuck with their bottom line .. NOT
get a grip

So Rockstar dicks around PC gamers but I should just buy the game anyway because it's not going to make a difference? Why do you even care what games I do or do not buy?

I boycotted GTA V for that reason and will do the same with RDR2 if it is also deliberately delayed.

GTA 5 PC came out 2 months after the console versions

More like a year and a half; GTAV came out Sept. 2013 on consoles, April 2015 for PC.

I guess the 2013 release was for the 360/PS3.
The comparable XBO/PS4 were late 2014 releases.

I don't understand why people are allowed to use their own PCs at tournaments.

Right, still using an i5 4690k, which I'm questioning whether upgrading to a 2700x. The memory speed is bottle-necking the GPU performance in games a little bit, but not sure its enough for the ~$860 upgrade (adding an m.2 drive and new copy of windows onto the CPU/MB/RAM). As hyped as I am for shiny new computer parts that's a tough sell. So I'm certainly not going to shell out $300 for a CPU then another $300 a year or two later.

In tRump Country, data caps are needed! If too many people download stuff from the internet, it might end up empty! That is what Ajit Pai told him and people don't want an empty internet, right?
