aand dead
I own a $1500 PC, PS4, Wii U and 3DS. I don't give a shit about the Xbone because Microsoft totally fucked this generation up.
I have no dog in this fight, I like playing all sorts of video games.
>Expensive hardware
If you buy an overpriced meme machine. My computer is 7 years old, it costed 100$ and it runs everything perfectly fine.
>Need knowledge with what you are dealing with software/hardware wise
You are either underage or old as fuck if you have a problem with your PC.
>Can run into errors/obstacles constantly
Most of them are easily fixed. Meanwhile, you can't do shit when a console breaks.
>Setting up controllers, emulators ETC can be a pain
Most emulators are easy as fuck to use. Only dosbox gets annoying sometimes.
>May encounter hackers on multiplayer
Like that isn't a problem for consoles.
>Harder to manage overall
It's easier to manage that console. At least if i want to change my screensaver i don't have to pay money.

What's that guys name?
>>330377069
He's the comedian guy
>>330376991
>Need knowledge with what you are dealing with software/hardware wise
it's usually because the mainstream audience doesn't want to search for fixes. It becomes easy once you bother searching google

>PC doesn't have exclusives
>somehow consoles are better for casual play with friends when it seems to me like pc is getting more split screen games these days, if not just as many, as consoles.
>bigger online play on modern games? i don't even know what this means, a bigger community because the majority of children play consoles?
>only certain controllers compatible is neutral not a con
not trying to hate, just trying to understand
>>330377341
>PC doesn't have exclusives
This is something i will never understand. Who cares if the game is an exclusive? Shouldn't you be worried about it being good?
>>330377341
>PC doesn't have exclusives
PC is filled with exclusives, but not nearly as many AAA exclusives as consoles
>somehow consoles are better for casual play with friends when it seems to me like pc is getting more split screen games these days, if not just as many, as consoles.
At least the Wii U has more variety for casual play
>bigger online play on modern games? i don't even know what this means, a bigger community because the majority of children play consoles?
Mostly because modern AAA games are targeted to a more mainstream audience wich also plays mostly on console.
>only certain controllers compatible is neutral not a con
Messed up on that

>PC is filled with exclusives, but not nearly as many AAA exclusives as consoles
i guess. maybe. are you sure that's right? maybe it's just the games that appeal to me are usually exclusive to pc whereas i'm not really excited for knack, killzone, halo. the nintendo shit definitely though. i suppose including weeb shit that's probably right too.
>>330378040
I mean, i rarely see big companies publishing anything that's not a multiplat/console exclusive
Every PC only game i've seen recently is independent
>>330378240
Xcom2 is 2k games and only released on PC... So far...
>>330381019
wasn't it getting ported to consoles though?
>>330374668
How is console easier to use? PC is just turn on and click exe. Console is also easy but you have to wade through gay ass ads to get to your games. At least on my xbone I do.
>>330381570
Unless the only thing you're using on PC is steam, you'll spend a good amount of time setting stuff up.
With consoles, you just sit back and wait the same amount of time while the console does tho job (i don't own a Xbox one so no idea if it works differently).
>>330378040
Depends
Now that Microsoft is going windows couple that with all the other shit and it's objectively getting a bunch of new AAA games
