how many people in this poll actually own both systems? how many people dont own either system? its just such a idiotic poll and has no relevance towards anything other than being a troll for people who want to debate which system wins the war. sadly, both consoles are fighting for second place

Wonderful little piece of equipment. Can finally game on my PC like I'd prefer. Starting off with Far Cry 3 and then going to MGR: Revengeance.

Spoiler for size...

Who knows? I'm sure they didn't collect that data and even if they did, chances are people aren't going to be truthful. It's no different than the polls that Gamefaqs offers. IGN may be the largest gaming site on the web, like it or hate it. IGN has been notoriously known for swayiing scores and opinions based on advertising dollars. But since this is a reader/user poll that doesn't come into play.

Is it scientific? Of course not. But it's still pretty interesting.

nothing about it is factual.its not even valid opinion. they are fake polls and like you said, IGN could have swayed it dramatically one way or the other to sensationalize it.

we could poll a million Nintendo owners and im sure it would change those results.

Speaking of using controllers for PC gaming, has anyone tried using the PS4 controller on PC? I'm thinking about getting a controller strictly for my PC, but I've read some mixed reviews about the DS4 depending on whether you use third party software.

never tried, but when i looked into using a ps3 controller it only seemed possible through a macgyver blend of tricks. i prefer the 360 controller, but at the time only had the ps3 and didnt want to spend the $40 on a controller. in the end i am glad i just bought a wired 360 controller.

Episode 3 of Walking Dead is in the books. This game never ceases to amaze me. Won't be able to play much more for a little while. Hopefully will be finishing up the last 2 parts and 400 Days by Monday night. What a great game.

Makes me want to look into Wolf Among Us, Tell Tale is legit.
