Console vs PC

[Pete Tong]

In today's " climate " why do gamers still go the PC over a console? I do get the graphics are better but all or certainly most of the games can be had on the playstation or Xbox.
I really do get it as I just can't bring myself to buy the cheaper PlayStation option over spending 3 to 4 times the outlay for a PC to just play games. Are we just?

Because you can do more than play games on a PC.

I use mine for all my multimedia purposes, I don't even own a TV just a 32inch monitor.

Maybe if you have kids still living with you a console is mor beneficial, especially in a living room

Yes ive used the PC " can do more " excuse as well. Thinking about it though. The over expenditure when buying a new PC is for gaming only. We could all buy a basic Internet system for the other stuff and a console for the gaming itch but we are like children aren't we. My going on 10 year system still does the job but just wanting the latest and greatest to play a couple of games now and again.

I still plan to get some sort of 9800x3d system once the new gpus are out though.
