The specification of the new Acer PC Predator is amazingly good, the style on the other hand is way off. I can understand why people go for Apple hardware on looks alone if this is he best that can be done by the other team. I know they’re trying to appeal to a certain market segment but why is it that when these designers hear that something is to be aimed at PC gamers do they suddenly think we want something that looks like it’s straight out of a Mecha anime. Some of us who play game on PC are actually professionals who like things to be a little more subtle than a 2 tonne hammer in the paws of colour blind, deranged ape with a penchant for exaggeration. Please can the PC designers out there come up with something that wouldn’t look out of place in a home but is still intended for game playing. Some of the Dell XPS systems and all of the Alienware systems are guilty of the same design for gamers stuff but to a far lesser degree than the atrocity that Acer have managed. Well done Acer, bottom of the gaming PC barrel reached we should be able to climb out now. I say that more in hope than expectation as I’m sure someone will find a way to “better” Acer.
