That analogy doesn't make sense.

Vegans eat less products. PC gamers enjoy more products. On a PC they can emulate a sizable amount of platforms and enjoy backwards compatibility all the way back. They don't have to spend a dime for better connectivity, and they get the option to, at times, "try" games without buying them (except for denuvo crap).

Meanwhile consoles have only a single thing going for them, exclusives. Which is not the equivalent to meat. It's the equivalent to maybe a special, weird indian food that you cannot find on stores easily.

I mean if there weren't a metric shit ton of great games on Steam that don't require a very powerful PC then I'd agree with you.

I've just got a fairly powerful Toshiba laptop I bought 3 years ago and I can handle pretty much anything. PC gaming can get as expensive as fuck; but it doesn't have to be.

Really though, this console generation just sucks. I've had a console every gen all the way back to the NES; but this time around I've seen no reason to upgrade my 360 to an Xbox One or PS4.

Maybe the next gen of consoles will be better.

from an economic standpoint, PC gaming is cheaper than either console.

we dont pay online charges, for multiplayer, given that most games i.e. battlefield, are one off payments.

if i need better graphics, i can buy a card for like 200 bucks, as opposed to a whole new console.

PS3 gamer turned PC gamer here

I'm personally really glad I made the switch. I don't give even a fraction of a fuck about graphics, fps, and all that faggot shit.

I mainly like pc gaming better though because you have literally thousands more games, and aren't limited by your console releasing something. Sure, there are some console exclusive games - but all they're doing is propping up the console market by getting you to spend $400 on a console just to play it. There are hundreds of times more "pc exclusive" games.
>Banished, Besieged, Factorio, [modern] Civilization, Total War, etc. are some of my favorites

Consoles have their place - mainly when you want to have friends over
>lol like we have friends anyway
but really I just think pc gaming is more fun, and most people would enjoy it more

>plus, you can use a gaming pc for regular computer activities, whereas a console is exclusively for gaming

also, you don't need to spend a ton on a gaming pc to get started. I put in around $500-600 (peripherals included) which is about what I would've spent on a console (with additional controllers/etc.). I was intimidated by the cost before I learned how cheap you could get one, and I was intimidated by learning to build one - but you can actually get pre-built ones off ebay for very little markup.

tl;dr I went from ps3 to pc and couldn't be happier with the choice
>>
>>686569376
you forget about the controls.

PC gaming is infinitely superior control wise for FPSes.

hack and slash are better with controller. but you can just plug a controller into your PC.

you cant plug your keyboard and mouse into a console for a FPS game.

I kept thinking to myself "what about a ps4 would justify spending the money...?" and couldn't come up with anything. oh wow, some different game modes on GTA V if I pay for the game again!!! $500 for that? there's nothing about it that really makes me feel it's worth it. especially given Moore's Law
>or in other words, the exponential rise in computing power means that a 10 year gap between consoles in the past would be like a 2 year gap nowadays

i got my pc in november and still haven't hooked up a controller :-|

i don't really play a lot of FPS games. I played Insurgency a bit, and got BF BC2, but those are really the only shooters I play anyway. Been trying to get used to aiming with a mouse, but it's been tough

for me, the main benefit of PC controls is for games you can't effectively play without a keyboard (Total War, for example), but that falls under "pc exclusives" anyway

it's hard as shit to get used to aiming with a mouse after 20 years of controllers, tho

Last year when I had my complete build done for 600 bucks I was kind of disappointed at the performance of some games, like FO4. I thought that game was poorly optimized.

But it turned out to be. Because then it got patched and now it runs quite nicely.

In any case, I like to have a PC for games because I do enjoy better resolutions better. Most console games on Xbox One and PS4 don't really handle 1080p and that still disgusts me to this day. And some games happen to suffer from framerate drops as well, which was one of the reasons I used to buy consoles, getting rid of unoptimized releases by sacrificing image quality. Now these consoles are literal miniPCs, it's not that great.
>>
>>686569798
no its not you're a retard, using the internet on a computer is a diffrent thing, are you using 4chan on your console right now?
>>
>>686570033
it amounts to how you think about the aiming mechanism.

in consoles, to turn 180 degrees, one needs to hold the stick in a direction for a given amount of time to turn.

for pc. to turn 180 degrees, one needs to move the mouse a certain amount of distance. the speed you move that mouse does not matter (provided you turned off mouse accelleration, which you should).

over time you unconsciously learn how far to move the mouse to turn your character to a certain angle. and you get better at it. i.e. faster.

hence while consoles are stuck with waiting for your character to turn. mouse allows you to aim faster through practice.

the only benefit a controller has is in terms of flying games, i.e. strike suit zero. in which movement of stick corresponds to movement of your ship. the controller can reset back to centre relatively quickly, by letting go of the stick, but a mouse needs physical movement back to centre, which takes longer.

most people nowadays use tablets or laptops. if people already have a pc, they're probably already at least a low-level pc gamer
>people who play games, that is
>i played Civilization and emulators on my laptop before getting a gaming pc

i had to buy a mouse, keyboard, headphones, and microphone when i got my pc (had like a 10 year old monitor that still worked fine). even then, it only cost me like $100 for peripherals. minus the headphones, it'd be about the same as one console controller.

your point is right though. "master race" faggots scare off potential pc gamers by making it seem like you need to invest ten thousand dollars to download Steam. When you factor in the cheaper cost of games, it's probably cheaper to game on a pc

>> consoles vs PC

This shit is like iOS vs Android. If you want to be sure that you can play the fuckin' game and do some other basic stuff on the device, you get the console. But if you want to be able to play the game with other settings and get some more eye candy, you like to tweak stuff, with the risk of breaking it...and you do some advanced stuff too on the device, get the PC.

I'm a PC gamer primarily because I enjoy key board and mouse for most games that hold a competitive role seeing as more finite movements are possible. Also I really enjoy computer hardware and technology. Im aware most people don't care and don't try and make them care.

I don't even hate people who play consoles. As long as you're not ignorant and understand that a computer is a computer regardless of if it says PS4 on it or its a desktop PC. If you just simply prefer playing on a console, that's cool. Nothing is inherently better than anything else.

I've found a way to utilize both. I play most of my games on the computer and depending on the game, I'll use my xbone controller or my keyboard and mouse. I play smash and some other older Nintendo games on my Wii u. And I play bloodborne and uncharted or anything else I want on my console. I just don't understand the hate. I just like video games

>>686571553
yea but if you like video games you should dislike microsoft, sony, and nintendo for making machines that have exclusive titles and make us all have to pay hundreds of dollars extra for their consoles to be able to play said exclusives.
as you said: computers are computers
if we could just play every game on a normal computer life would be peachy and gamers could just worry about games instead of console wars/pc masterrace/etc

To this day I don't get why there are no official kb+m controllers for consoles. What was the last time we had those, the Dreamcast?
>>
>>686571078
Really though. If I were to replace my current build with a modest computer and a current console, like the PS4 (because honestly I think Xbone is garbage), that computer would still be priced at half the price of that (let's say 300 bucks), and I would be dealing with low resolutions, having to buy more games, have to pay fees to play online, backwards compatibility isn't even a thing. What would I even gain from this? To be able to play Uncharted 4? Wow. That's amazing bro.

But in all seriousness, unless you're out of the house too frequently and need something like a laptop, in which case it would be more logical, a decent build is a better investment. The only issue I can find is that you're kinda forced to run Windows there because both Linux and Hackintosh manage to still be shit at games.

Well of course. You're absolutely right, anon. I would love to be able to play everything on my PC with the hardware it has with any controller I wanted. I don't like the video game MARKET, but I still like video games. It's a crux that is a hard one to deal with. You either support what you don't like and perpetuate it, or you quit and find a new hobby. I don't want to do that. so I torrent a lot of my games and buy ones I know I want. same goes for the system itself. I don't have to buy them. But I chose to. No one is forcing me to do anything.

i see your point but the market exists because there are so many people that think a console is better than a pc for gaming.
i have so many friends and people i know that have a computer and they could upgrade their graphics card for 400 dollars or they can buy a console for 400 dollars
they ALWAYS will buy a console even though they have a perfectly good desktop
it bothers me that people are keeping the console market alive and willing to bend over for exclusive titles
we pay so much more money as gamers than we need to and we get less out of it in the end.
it pisses me off
>>
>>686572118
Sure, but dual boot is still kind of a shitty thing to do.

There's also GPU passthrough. Problem with that is that it's a bit difficult to set it up and you're going to require more RAM at the very least. And of course two GPUs.

your not the kind of person who bothers me though
im fine with people that have enough money to buy everything and like to play every type of game
you have no other choices but to buy the consoles that have the exclusive games you want
it just surprises me that you seem to be so content with spending so much money
>>
>>686572521
>they could upgrade their graphics card for 400 dollars or they can buy a console for 400 dollars

Honestly is not that easy. At times it's better to also upgrade some other parts. If you have a shitty old processor a $400 GPU is going to be a huge waste of money.

that's half my point

if you get a pc,
1. it will help end that market, but more importantly
2. "exclusives" are a trick by the console companies. out of the literal thousands of "pc exclusives," is someone really going to say their one particular console exclusive is better than all those? when i was a console peasant, i had no idea what a shit ton of games were available through things like Steam
>>
>>686573703
If you're building a new gaming PC, 7 is a waste of time. It doesn't support DX12 and generally you get a tiny bit better performance on W10. If you play SFV for instance, at least on AMD cards many people I know have experienced some real stutter on windowed mode on w7, while w10 fixes that issue.

Think of this:

I'm listening to a podcast and I want to play yet another one of those century long games with lots of content but the same music over and over and over. Maybe I'm even using IRC on the background.

So while doing these processes I have to restart, open up that podcast and the IRC channel I was on again while loading the game. That is shitty. Some games ain't movies where you're supposed to put all focus on it while your house is burning down.

anon is right

i usually will play a game on my pc while i have netflix playing on my tv, and will switch between the game and chrome periodically.

tonight i was playing Factorio, and would mess around in my browser while things were being crafted, or when i had someone i was messaging with. plus occasionally switching between the game and 4chan, the wikia for the game, or switching between the other 20 tabs I have open. plus opening calc when i needed to make in-game calculations

how exactly do you do all of that on a console?

Playing on a console is like eating ribs at apple bees. Sure you get a nice meal and it tastes alright. Building a PC is like making ribs at home from scratch, you hand pick the best ingredients, smoke it in your smoker for a few hours with the best spices you can find. You know what you are making and what it contains. You are going to have a much better experience but it takes a bit of work to get it just right but in the end you are proud of your creation. Vegans just spout elitist bullshit with no real effort to back it up.There is nothing wrong with liking your console but there is no reason to be proud of going to walmart and buying one.

Underrated post. Use of Moore's Law is in an analysis of the shittiness of console gaming. Consoles are swiftly becoming obsolete due to the progressive nature of computing advancements. The PC will have a competitive edge over consoles simply because they can handle more, and this will hold true until the singularity at which point it will not matter which you choose, it would become a matter of preference based on nostalgia.

PC Gaming is superior in every possible way, because it's an open platform and as such as subject to competition which drives up quality and down prices.

The only single benefit of consoles is that they're cheaper hardware investments up front but due to the royalties which the customer pays on every game made it means that PC gaming (like for like) is cheaper if you own more than about 10 games.

PCs have backwards compatibility, I can play decades old games on my new PC especially with services like GoG. Steam games are so cheap I own 586 now. PC hardware has things like VR which is cool, I've been using that since the Oculus DK2 came out. We have 4k monitors, I have a nice 32" 4k IPS monitor for gaming, we also have the power to run games at max settings and not the gimped settings that consoles run at.

Hardware like the GTX 1080 for the PC has 8.9 TFLOPS of rendering power where as the PS4 has 1.8 and the Xbone only 1.3, these are slow and useless machines by comparison.

We have modding, cheap digital distribution with large sales, we have a huge array of compatible peripherals such as controllers, steering wheels, game pads, flight yokes, joysticks, high precision mice and keyboard which all control far better than consoles.

We can output to any device we like so I have my PC wired to my home cinema with 9.1 surround sound and a 125" 1080p projector in the living room using wireless controllers. Steam has big picture mode for easy game browsing.

The PC is literally better in every single way, people say stupid shit like "oh hurr durr when you have friends over", so fucking what? Do TV out to your home cinema setup and get 4 wireless controller and play 4 player games on the PC and you'll have a better experience because there will be no frame rate issues and you can play in true 1080p or 4k if you can afford it.

Console users literally BTFO.
