The worst kind seems to be those who've moved across from PC gaming to consoles. They seem to have this burning desire to 'prove' that they haven't settled for second best and constantly need their choice to be validated. They're easily spotted as they tie themselves in knots trying to justify their choice and convince others PC gaming is dead/ dying. Their insecurity and constant trolling of this forum is pretty sad.

I am sure bunch of former PC gamers are pretty much aware that the you get better specs with a PC version of a game.  You switch out after you get fed up with the maintenance headaches and risks of games not working due to drivers.   You know you give up some things, in exchange for less headaches.  I fit in that category.

As far as "dying" goes, PC gaming, as a percentage of the gaming market, is shrinking, and is less relevant.  Companies are making the jump to consoles, because they have less headaches they have to deal with doing this. 

Actually, it has been growing again. It is a cycle, both a cycle of overall PC install base (of current gen PCs) and cycles of genre popularity. The PC star is rising again, and will probably continue to do so. And as far as the headaches go, most of us do not have them really.
