PC or Console????

Hello Guys, Me again.

I am wondering today whether you prefer Console or PC, this idea come around when watching some of the Tech youtubers, and they couldn't prove that more people liked PC over console, and vice versa. I would like to know would you..

Build your own PC


Or



Buy a Console


I am looking forward to seeing some of the responses, so get commenting :D

I personally prefer PC, it's a fact that the graphics are better and I find it easier to play with friends/Skype.

Build. Consoles are very overpriced and you can get a lot more for the money by building.

You reckon you can build a pc better at gaming than a console for $250? No chance.

You are leaving out the customization and thousands of other things that you can do with a PC that a console can't do.
Browse with ease on a PC. A console? Takes a long time.
Edit the operating system on a PC. A console? Permanently on it. Now I don't doubt you could change it through the hard drive, but it's not an easy task.

A console has many limitations. PCs do not have many. And in terms of those limitations, the PC is cheaper, especially if you can get parts at a decent price.

It really depends what your after. I prefer computers myself as I'm used to using a keyboard and find a mouse far easier to use to look around. If you know how or know someone who can and you can afford it you can get a custom built pc. This is not possible with a console and the top range of computers will always be more powerful than a console.

The advantage of a console is generally everything works. Computers sadly suffer from compatibility issues and there's always the chance your computer doesn't have high enough specs to play specific games. With a console you can generally just buy the game and play knowing that in most situations you shouldn't have any issues.

Also steam always has good prices and good deals

This is very true and I understand where your coming from, but i guess once you have all the stuff required for a PC they are worth while :)

If you are looking at a budget pc that can run up to date games then you are looking at around £300-£400

100% agree with you there

Console, I like the controls and the ease of use.

I generally use PC/Laptop more because sometimes when I complete a game on console I get bored and I'm just done with it. With my laptop it's like you have so much more to actually do. I wouldn't say I'm a huge gamer though so that probably explains it!
