Really?

I'm not one of those people who thinks poorly of console gamers, but seriously, this really doesn't make console gamers look good at all. I would like to point out that I don't care if you play on console over PC, I personally prefer to game on PC but the wonderful thing about us is that we don't all have to like the same things. I like PC, you don't, as along as we can agree to disagree we can get along. But these guys, are not reasonable and don't deserve that courtesy.
The stupidity hurts
Their reasoning is flawed for many reasons, I'll list them off:
1) Grand Theft Auto has been a series that has consistently been on multiple platforms and has wide appeal on all platforms.
2) PC gamers complained about GTA 4 because of the terrible optimisation, the game ran like shit even on good machines. But it made up for it by having a brilliant modding community.
3) Piracy is a problem on consoles as well, in fact entire systems have failed due to piracy, Dreamcast anyone? Even so, the ratio of pirated to legally purchased games on PC is inflated and inaccurate because there is absolutely no way to tell. So even though games on PC have blockbuster sales, companies like Ubisoft like to pull this bullshit statistic that 80-90% of their games on PC weren't purchased legally.
4) People only pirate your game if you don't deserve that money. They have made this perfectly clear, that if your port sucks or you have some controversy surrounding, it they will pirate your game. However I would like to point this out to those kind of people that they are not the solution, the solution is actively boycotting games that are terribly ported or have some form of controversy surrounding them. Piracy will not convince publishers and developers to make better games and have better policies, they will just twist your words and make us look like freeloaders and thieves.
To the people who support this petition, get your heads out your asses and realise that your entire campaign is based on your complete lack of understanding when it comes to PC gamers in general, you are not helping the industry and you certainly aren't making it better for yourselves, it's reasons like this is why most PC gamers hate you, fucking grow up and realise that we're all gamers here and we should be sticking out for each other not trying to fuck each other over at the nearest opportunity.
Fuck ignorant people and fuck selfish gamers.

I already did this with Skyrim, I bought the console version of it first because I didn't have my computer in good enough condition to play it, and then when I got bored of it and my computer was fixed, I bought a PC copy (at full price, to show I am supporting) to mod the fuck out of it and put more time in it than I normally would.
I just made a new save game on Skyrim, since my first one (Ported from the XBox using LEET HAXORS) got clunky and just couldn't handle its existance anymore and I am HAVING A FUCKING BLAST! :D
Really, I don't GAF on the whole consoles VS PC debate. To me, each has their pros and cons.
PC gaming master race!!!!
The bottom line is gamers are entitled morons who can't stop fighting with each other.
yep
