I'd much rather pay an extra $250 upfront and build something like http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2AZqn than buy a PS4 or Xbone. If you can afford to spend that extra money upfront, there really is no reason to own both unless there are exclusives you just absolutely must play, but there's usually much better alternatives that are similar to that game on PC. |

I actually own both a PC that I play a ton of games on and a ps3 that I play games that don't come out on pc on. Like Madden the show. Owning both is a great way to go. |

I haven't upgraded video card drivers in over a year. I've been PC gaming for over 20 years, and I've never heard anyone who considered upgrading drivers to be a serious drawback to PC gaming. You're being overdramatic.

Swap out that motherboard in that build I linked for http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813130637 and you've got a computer that can sli/crossfire in 8/8. You will not beat that on a console in the next decade and you wont save more money on the console over that timespan. |

At the end of the day, with cost over time being comparable over a 7-8 year stretch, playing on a console is just more preferable. I prefer the UI, the exclusives that come to consoles, the fact none of my friends play on PC, the obscurity of trying to piece together a machine just so you don't end up paying over 1,000 bucks for a top of the line PC that has more detail in graphics. Bf4 on my PS4 plays at 60 FPS, and looks great. Having more detail on rocks or blades of grass won't change my experience, and again, the UI of console features is going to be more intuitive( I.e. Setting up PS4 party chat vs Ventrillo). Both are great in their own respects.

In cost over time PC wins dramatically. It is only the up front cost tha tis lower on a console.
Your ps4 plays bf4 on medium settings, at 720p (****ING LOL) at 60 fps. You dont think you could build a PC for that money that could do better? Oh yes, yes, you can. For the same dollar amount! Other arguments such as OMG DRIVERS and OMG PS4 PARTY CHAT EASIER THAN VOICE COMM PROGRAM are intellectually dishonest, because you are talking about SECONDS of time difference, for far, far, far, MORE functionality. |
