I actually own every system out there, but the good things of PC are obviuos:

- Games are much, much cheaper, even at launch. Let's not forget about Steam sales and gog

- The power: Having pretty much all my games on max settings at 1080p with a pretty high fps rate rocks

- Freedom: You're really free on pc which rocks especially when it comes to input devices

- mods: Mods do anything you can imagine. Increase graphics (even for old games like Morrowind) and add content

- Most high scoreing games: It has more high scoring games this gen than any other system

- BC: You can play very old games on your new PC.

- Extremly big indie scene with lots of quality games

- Having the games on the PC, no need to switch discs, very confortable

- Most of my friends play on PC (they're 20+, feel the need to add it as most of my little cousins only own consoles. Looks like PC is more present at 20+ year olds)

- Fantastic editors: From RPG Maker where you can build your own RPGs to map editors from SC: The PC offers the best tools to create your own gaming stuff

- best multimedia device possible: As I have it connected to my Tv, I can't think of anything better as a multimedia device.

- Pretty much everyone owns a PC for stuff like Mail and browsing. Having a strong PC makes this kind of stuff even better

- As a computer scientist I need a strong PC anyway, so price of the rig isn't really a problem xD

So that's it for now, I could go on ...

  • I got tired of console gaming...
  • sure the console have games but in replay value it lacks compare to pc such as mods even though i hardly replay any games whether its rpg or action etc....
  • As of now i'm open to new genre which pc seems to offer wide variety in mmo, strategy, action etc...
  • The DLC is really screwing the players and gettign out of hand...
  • Price helps
  • Choose between digital or dic where i still prefer disc...
  • There price point of console it self and longevity... sure best pc cost a lot but its a matter of preference...

These are some of the few reason i went with pc.....

Consoles are for kids, stupid people and/or poor people.

Not true. I have both a console and PC gamer, and I'm none of those, and neither are you. Though it can apply to a vast number of people here...

Nintendo is all out for casuals.

MS is making a set-up box with tons of ads and horrible interface and paid online.

Sony actually makes a good console, but I don't really care for the exclusives.

Still playing on handhelds though. PC + Vita or 3DS = Best of both worlds.

I should have specified, I mean people that game exclusively on console. I also own consoles, they are handy for the days that you don't want to think and just switch off.

1.) Immersion. Something console games lack in every way shape and form, even if the game is on both platforms. 2.) Freedom: i can do literally ANYTHING with a PC, 3.) Graphics and performance blows consoles out of the water. 4.) Cheaper games, Take a look at the steam summer sales in a few days and you will see what i mean. 5.) Someone mentioned this earlier, but Community. Being a part of a stable friendly community is just plain awesome. 6.) Consoles, while they have some good exclusives, have very very few games compared to PC and have no RTS support at all. 7.)Mods 8.) Games have DEPTH. 9.) surprised no one has mentioned this but: PROFESSIONAL GAMING. The pro community on consoles is pathetic to the one on pc. The prize pool this year for lol Was 5 million dollars... 5 million. The biggest console tournament (correct me if im wrong) is the frag cup. Which has a prize pool of half the most recent lol qualifier. I could go on with smaller things but thats the jist of it

I was just wondering why you all choose to play games on PC out of the M/KB and potential graphical upgrade? ShoTTyMcNaDeS
Why do you buy new consoles?

60 fps, 1920 x 1080p, Anti alaising, the ability to choose K+M or Gamepad on some games. Getting more gliches patched by the modders in Bethesda titles and playing with some mods. (not really into mod heavy, but I do use a few like Skyrim UI). And did I mention full 1080p with some AA. That alone is wonderous.

But I also own and play all consoles too. I love my jrpgs, fighters and Nintendo franchises too. I pretty much like gaming, I'm not too picky, I can find fun in many games people around here compain about. I just don't like sports and simulator games, and RTS are so so. But I have a powerful PC because I am also trying to get into game art design, so I need a good PC for running 3DStudio Max and Zbrush.

Basically I will play games on anything that can play games, well except my phone as I only play games on it when I'm really bored somewhere.
