Maybe because they sell well. You know, supply and demand. Perception is everything. When you look outside your own tiny little bubble, you tend to learn things.

Man I don't understand self professed gamers worry about how other gamers game. To each his own.

Consoles have ease of use going for them. But I agree with the OP that PC is potentially better in every other way. I've been primarily a PC gamer since the mid 90's, but I still buy consoles from time to time for the media features and exclusive games.

Explain how blurays are complete crap? lol

I've had way, way more issues with my Blu-ray rentals than with my DVD rentals. The copy-protection, the way the AACS keys are set up, is very annoying and anti-consumer.

Interesting. I've never rented blu-rays before so I wasn't aware this was an issue people dealt with.

Short imo: Ease of use.

PC's are plug an play

go to any school see how everyone is using them

I mean damn Mac's and PC's have been pretty much just plug it in since the 80's theres like one cord for the power supply and one cord for the monitor and one for network cable thats 3 things its basic plug and play.

witht he consoles you have to login with names pay for online and if SONY OR XBOX say you are offline YOU GO OFFLINE with the PC your ISP is the only one who can tell you to go offline

so no dude ease of use is a fail on the consoles side of things people know computers better than consoles their in schools everywhere.

Not in the N64/PS1 era they weren't.

yeah but there is some xbox guys on youtube who have gtx 1080 computers and still are playing on xbox it just doesn't make any sense they have the ultimate computers and there playing on a box what the hell there only using the computer for video editiing when it should be for gaming

There are men like Hugh Grant who was engaged to Elizabeth Hurley, seen there.

Yet he got busted getting a BJ from a pretty ugly $20 hooker in LA.

That doesn't make sense to me. Look at her! But I don't need Hugh Grant's sexual desires to make sense to me in order to accept everyone is different. Why is this so hard for you to understand?

And who are you to tell others what their PCs "should" be for? Get off your pedestal, pal.

It appears you have written some words, and there were certainly a lot of them. Congratulations.

Maybe she wouldn't go down on him? Lol

Also, does he have any examples of this? Who on earth would buy a 1080 for video editing when it's the processor doing all the work?

It's mainly because people feel as if they owe loyalty to their respective consoles

Optical media died in like 2003. I don't know anyone who still has an optical drive on their PC.

What? That isn't even factual- I would say it is dead now and died about 2-5 years ago, but certainly not in 2003.

Don't understand why do these topics, from arrogant ppl who can't accept the existence of anything other than what they personally like, last more than 3 or 4 posts.
