Why do people play on consoles?

some people prefer to

>>339802436

Because they don't want to play with you

Less money I suppose.
>>
More comfy. Cheaper. Games can be picked up cheap because of physical discs and sold on. No hassles. Just put disc in and play.

>>339802436
To stay away from cheat engine script kiddies and aimbot users.

>>339802436
It's for welfies who can't into pc gaming
>>339802938
>put disc in
>have to wait like an hour or two for the game to install

>then you also have to buy an online pass
>>339802981

Clearly never played a PS4. You put the disc in and you can play it whilst it is installing to the hard drive.
>>
>>339802436

Im lazy. CBF dealing with opening and upgrading my PC. I hate in game settings. I spent more time playing with settings than I did actually gaming when I was mainly PC.

Why do you mustards keep asking this question?
>>
>>339802436
Because of exclusives. You can have a PC to play all multiplats in higher quality and a console to play console exclusives. Some handhelds too.

Then you proceed to laugh at retarded people with no money who keep flinging shit at each other because of what one platform they each chose, also known as console wars.
>>
>>339802436
there are only 2 reasons to play on a console. exclusive content and multiplayer on a single system.
>>
Your normie friends or girls will think you're a massive faggot if you invite them over to play computer games.

less hacks

poverty level box ensures friends will get it too

exclusives

im almost 30, im used to frame rate drops

>>339802436
I use to be console and pc, but when i got my own place its easier to have a console set up.

I still have my pc but its in the spare room.
>>
>>339802436
Because they have exclusives and are comfier

I got DarkSouls3 for the PS4 even though I could run it at 60fps on PC, and after all the shit the PC version went through I don't regret it one bit. My prediction was true.

Unless you really want to miss out, getting a PS4 is a must this gen. Sooner or later.

Because they have pride and dont want to beg for console scraps like PCucks have too.

Exclusives
It's what their friends have so they prefer it so they can play with them
It's only $350 and most people already have TVs so they don't need to buy anything else, while buying a new PC with a monitor and a decent keyboard and mouse and even a desk if you don't have one costs more than $350 (I had to spend almost as much as a console just on the desk + monitor + KB&M just to get into PC gaming)
It doubles as a media center box for people who don't already have a "smart" TV
You can still buy physical copies of games, which is useful for people with shit internet

>>339802436

they are black dudes

Why are consoles so popular in Japan?
>>
>>339802436
I don't own a PC, don't have ~$1,000 to spend on one, and don't feel like saving up that much money for a PC right now. Also exclusives. Also the fact that I've always preferred playing games with a controller as opposed to KB+M.
>>
>>339807927
because they have Sony and Nintendo
>>
>>339809367
and SEGA

Because Mr. Marketer-san told them to.

Anyone saying "for exclusives" is delusional and lying to themselves. PS4 sold a shitload and absolutely none of it was for exclusives.

>b-b-b-b-b-b-but muh B-b-b-b-bloodborne!

Bloodborne was outsold by Splatoon, of all things. The top-selling games on PS4 are all last-gen rehash multiplats.

They literally bought them "because they were told to."

Kill yourself
Its because of people like you I can't enjoy threads for game ports
>>
>>339802436

Games, diminishing returns on pc hardware, friends, and comparatively nonexistent software and hardware issues.

I have a great pc, but there are too many games that I need consoles to play. I have money and I play a lot of games. I'm not going to wait for ports.

I also don't have much reason to ask for ports because I don't play shitty games. When a game is 1080/60 on ps4, why would I want a port? Sure, my pc can do more, but why do I need more than that? 4k/128 is a meme. Maybe I'll care a decade from now when gpus are good enough.

But yeah, no matter how many games there are, pc fanboys just can't justify owning a console. Keep begging for ports, maybe one day you'll realize it's better to play video games than post on forums.
