It's the PC-Console cycle. It happens every generations.

This is how it goes:

PC gaming is popular, but fades as new consoles are released with exciting new features and exclusive 1st party games. Then as the consoles start to age and exclusives start to slow down PC gaming starts getting more attention because it didn't age, in fact while nobody was watching PC gaming got better. PC goes back to being popular, the games looks and play great, but the popularity fades as new consoles are released with exciting new features and 1st party games. And so on and so on...

Yes, I too have noticed that this cycle does occur. Some of us have a definitive favourite (PC gaming for me), but go on the forums at the start of a console generation, middle and end then you'll see a definite trend of discussions towards PC gaming. Then the cycle repeats and a bunch of console players get vocal again.

OT: Fact is, PC gaming is great fun, has never been more accessible than it is now and caters to a far wider range of genres and niche titles than consoles can achieve within their limited shelf-life.
