- Console costs less

- A console is a set package. I dont have to worry about buying a PC with certain specs and seeing if future games will work on my PC. I buy a console and I play the games that come out for it. Simple.

- It also has the exclusives I want. Nintendo, MS and Sony fans all have their preferences.

- Consoles are more socially accepted and more importantly, socially accessable. I play in front of my TV, not wanting to be glued to a 20 inch screen. I also like that my console can be used to entertain friends and family alike. The gaming PC still today has a social stigma.



Would something like a steam box sway you if it had local MP support and was guarenteed to work with all steam games (albeit limited to certain settings although hypothetically let's say they have an auto-optimisation to 30fps built in so you don't have to change anything) and obviously plugged into a TV?

Again it interferes with the media hub functionality that I want. Exclusives too.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
