Actually, after a bit of thought to this, I'd say no. I'd rather just have both consoles and not have all the hardware handled and stable in a box. I don't want to have to upgrade midgen because they decide the PC specs need to be higher as with most MS PC games and at the end of the day, as much as I want to do two consoles next gen, I just don't think I'll be able to hack it and end up playing less games as a result, so i don't need the two systems games. Sony will have to fuck up something awful at this point, which it often looks as if they are in a decline, alas Xbox is fucking up so much more than them every single, damn time. So no, I'm too old and I couldn't possibly get more free time as it is almost all at my finger tips as is when managed properly so I'm a one box man from here til my grave with maybe a switch if they ever let us back up saves onto some form of physical storage or do free cloud saves.

PCs don't have generations like consoles do, so the whole having to upgrade midgen because someone decided PC specs needed to be higher doesn't make sense.  Every single year, there's newer and better tech coming out.  If your PC is so outdated that it can't run the latest games, then it's probably over 8 years old, at least, anyway.

And most gaming PCs are pretty low spec as it is.  1060s, or 1070s are as about as average as it gets, and neither of those cards are very good at all, as I wouldn't personally own anything less than a 1080 Ti.

The main reason consoles do so well is because of misinformation, and a lack of cross play.  I still hear people say they don't want PCs because they want to use a controller and play on their TVs.  No cross play means whatever your friends get, you get too.  It wont be next gen, but the one after that, will have cross play for everything, and everything playable across everything.  We'll have halo on PS6, and God of War on Xbox... and PC.
