Next Gen Gaming! Ask Me #009

2013-11-21
hey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with ask me where I go over all kinds of questions straight from you guys so let's jump right on in should I buy a ps4 or gaming PC for $100 more that's a tough one so on one hand you have the PlayStation 4 which is essentially a $400 mid-range gaming PC and a tiny little case and on the other hand you could just be able to buy yourself a normal gaming PC which is going to be bigger it's going to be more expensive to get the same level of graphics but you're also going to be able to do more on it such as play games on Steam actually use it as a normal PC do modding all that kind of stuff so it kind of boils down to exactly how you want to gain do you want something that's going to be simpler it's going to be cheaper and you can just stick underneath through TV and forget about or do you want a full-on gaming PC which is going to allow you to customize to play around with it and to use it as an actual full gaming computer so it really kind of comes down to how you want to use it well social networking die considering you asked this question on Facebook probably no time soon what are your favorite games for next gen I've only got the ps4 right now and in fact I actually just did a video talking about some of the games on there but probably some of my favorites absolutely have to be resogun which I know it doesn't seem like anything all that special but it is actually one of the most fun you know twin-stick shooters that played in a long time battlefield 4 is really good when it works which it doesn't always although they've got some patches coming for that soon and surprisingly Need for Speed rivals is actually a really fun racing game not quite my normal style I've kind of preferred like the forces and the Gran Turismo in the world but Need for Speed is a pretty fun game as well and of course lots of cool Xbox one games will be coming out and I'll be taking a look at those here in the next couple days how do you always get hey guys this is Austin to sound exactly the same in every video I've said a lot of times over the last four and a half years so it's just pretty much in the beginning of every video and most of the times I have to do you know that same take couple times because I mess something up so yeah it's pretty much just then I just say it so often that anytime I can just say hey guys this is Austin is there any point in getting both next-gen consoles do you have to get both yeah but there are definitely reasons why you might want to so first of all there are exclusives so if you want to play Halo for example you pretty much have to get an Xbox and if you want to play Uncharted you're pretty much gonna have to buy a Playstation 4 same thing goes for your friends so do a lot of your friends have an Xbox - a lot of them have a place well it might make sense for you to go ahead and pick up whichever one or both of those consoles so you can play with them so they're definitely reasons that you might want to get both consoles although probably not going to be a necessity especially once they kind of start coming down in price though it might make sense with the 770 and 780 price drop the 780 Ti out now and nifty things like g-sync and shadow play what do you think Nvidia definitely has some good stuff coming so I'm probably most excited for g-sync as this allows the monitor to actually change the refresh rate depending on how many frames per second you're getting in a game so instead of having to use something like vsync or just dealing with tearing and just weirdness instead it makes everything look much smoother much more natural I'm excited to see that obviously some of their graphics cards especially some of the price cuts are definitely nice although I think AMD is definitely pushing them hard on that side the AMD r9 290 is a ridiculously powerful graphics card it's you know fairly loud fairly hot but as far as pure performance goes it's really going to be hard to beat and I am also interested on the AMD side to check out mantle I've actually been able to talk to quite a few people from AMD as well as some various yet different game developers and I'm really interested to see how mantle kind of plays out so lots of good stuff actually on both the red and green side of the fence would you buy a Windows tablet I actually already have its the assist transformer book t100 and I will be doing a video on this before too much longer but it's not quite so much a standard kind of iPad or Android tablet it's more of like a standard Windows PC kind of crammed into a tablet form factor and it also does come with a keyboard dock which is pretty cool I like it's not the greatest thing in the world but for certain people it could be absolutely fantastic and of course like I said I should be doing a video on this before too much longer what are your views on the new curved display smartphones are they worth the high price right now not so much I mean there's the LG G flex as well as the Samsung Galaxy round and it's kind of cool to see these companies experimenting and trying new things I'm always for that but I really think that either of these phones have nailed it now what is kind of interesting to me is something that Samsung showed off earlier this year and that using a basically from the front it looks like a pretty much normal smartphone but actually has the display kind of taper around the edge so you can maybe see some notifications or whatever's going on with on the phone just from the side as opposed to having to light up the entire screen so stuff like that I think could be very interesting but the current kind of smartphones really don't do it for me well you ever start vlogging and at how many subscribers did you consider yourself successful I've thought about vlogging but I don't really think it would be all that interesting now as far as how many subscribers I got when I consider myself successful probably about a hundred or so when I first got started I started having just a few people watching my videos it was awesome but one thing about me is I've always tried to kind of set the bar higher so a while back it was if I could get a thousand views on every video that would be the greatest thing ever and then it was 2,000 and it was 5,000 I mean even now today when I'm getting 30 40 50 thousand views pretty consistently I've always got to step it up if the video doesn't get 60,000 I will be upset or 80,000 or 100,000 whatever it is there's always got to be a higher goal to hit otherwise I just kind of feel like I'm stagnant and not going anywhere that's not something that I can deal with it also I don't at probably when I hit a hundred subscribers that would be when I kind of consider myself to be popular anyway there's gonna be about it for this one if you guys have any questions that you want me to answer next time on ask me if you're free to drop me a line over on Twitter Facebook or Google+ and of course those links will be in the description of this video anyway guys I will catch you next time what is love baby don't hurt me don't hurt me no more ya ever picked up a girl for being a big youtuber wait you can do that I'll see you guys later
