Poll If you could only choose one, what would it be? (65 votes)

PC (high-end, of course) 58%
PS5 22%
Xbox Series X 20%

Okay. Inevitably the knee-jerk reaction will be "all of them", or a combination of any two. But let's just assume that the incoming totalitarian regime that will be biometrically restricting your ability to buy and sell whilst compelling you to bend the knee to the Mother Diana will also be confining your choice of gaming mediums to either PC, PS5, or Xbox Series X. At this point in time, considering all of the respective positives and negatives, which would you choose?

I'd go with PC, because the superior choice, imo, is always the superior choice regardless of chip shortages and whatnot. The PS5 is a sound choice for exclusives, as well as the inclusion of PSVR2, but the latter is not coming out for a good while, and right now said exclusives are few and far between, the only available one I truly want being Demon's Souls. As for the XSX, well, having a high-end PC makes it pointless, so personally it is a non-option. But if you want the most powerful console, the XSX is certainly a good option.

What do you guys think?

And--totally on topic--here is an inspired sketch of Nyx, peer of Diana. They might be friends, even. Or maybe not. Who can say?

The system that does everything.

This question shouldn't be asked, tho. The only ones that will answer otherwise are fanboys, clueless nubs that use it as a printer or those who have never owned one, so they have no idea what they're missing.

You are an absolute all-star for completely failing to read the topic.

....or maybe you did read it, and simply could give a hoot. Still an all-star.

XsX because of game pass, not a fan of gaming on the PC. I'd miss the Spidy sequel but the rest of Sony's exclusives wouldn't bother me to lose

Xbox Series X for me. The ability to buy most of my games on physical format is too powerful of a draw for me.

PC for sure. Mods, free online, more power, faster speeds, cheaper and more free games, open ecosystem, VR, backwards compatibility spanning back decades, freely using any input device you want, and you can use it to work from home when not gaming. I almost checks off every box, so now, with Sony and Microsoft bringing their exclusives to PC to get a slice of the market, that means all boxes get Checked.

It objectively isn't. PC runs every game it has better. Free online. Plug a controller in if you don't like kbm. Installing a few drivers may be too difficult for lemming pea brains.

So you can't afford a PC. Sucks for you, kid.

It's pretty simple, dude. I was a Sony fan------>then I got a badass PC------->then it was just a question of being honest with myself. I can't be one of these drooling types that refuses to see the light.

PC absolutely, positively, no-questions-asked destroys Playstation.

I have a question for you. Are you 8 years old or a genuinely stupid adult?

I already caught you posting on another one of your accounts before and you ran from the thread like a coward. The evidence is still there. Don't think anyone has forgot.

Is it just for games? If I picked a console would I never be able to use a PC again for programming or anything else? I would have to pick PC. Otherwise, console.

You would have to take that up with the upper brass. However, the upper brass will not take it up with you.

To be fair, I was one of those gamers who didn't think gaming PC was all that until I build myself a PC just to play Crysis back in 2007, and OMFG, PC has shown me the light. I have nothing against consoles, they will always have their place but once you go gaming PC, it's really hard to go back to consoles unless we're talking about console exclusives that is.

Yeah, pretty much my situation exactly. As I said above, I can't be one of these drooling brainwashed types that refuses to recognize the better option. Getting into PC.....sheesh, I seriously can hardly believe how much better it is. It's not even a competition, lol. PC just absolutely squashes the console experience.

@davillain-: I've been gaming on console for over 30yrs, this Leopard won't change his spots.

I don't care for graphics, resolution, frames etc, so to me spending a couple of grand to get a few extra pixels/frames etc is a waste of money.

Consoles will always be the better options and give the best bang for your buck, its just that simple.

And as for "freedom & justice" thats just your way of saying cheating & piracy right?

Yup, doesn't take some weird fanboy shit to hop the fence. I always preferred console and arcade type games. PC finally got those by the truck load. Now I can play my favorite game types without the shackles of consoles? Yes plz.

That along with the PC specific games and wide open access to the massive back catalog (retro console/arcade included), just really don't need another platform.

It indeed has it all. My only issue now is my backlog is suddenly the Stairway to Heaven.

Slightly off subject, but I'm curious. When you use a controller on PC, which one do you prefer? I've just been using a DS4 and a Logitech, which I actually like a lot despite it's pretty cheap.

@wandering_halls:

Ha, yeah just gotta play whatever you feel like in the moment. Committing to some backlog on PC is an impossible task.

I'm fine with just about any modern controller, but the Elite 2 became my go-to when I scooped one last year. Probably more pricey than it should be, but damn it's nice.

Before that it was either the 360 controller or DS4.
