A pc rig won't keep up for 10 years as well so goodluck with that. Also there's a difference with paying a huge ammount of money in one go than paying in terms. The latter is more manageable as you don't splurge your money right away.

So no... PC is still more expensive to build not to mention researching individual good parts which is quite a hassle for general consumers.

But really nothing really beats PC in performance. You just need to be stinking rich to keep up with it.


You're joking right?  A PC will totally keep up with a console for 10 years.

If anything the opposite is true.  In 10 years it's the PS4//Xbone that won't be keeping up, while the PC will be able to run games that won't even be on the PS4.


Heck, the PC rig will probably keep up with the PS5/nextbox if you just buy a graphics card that will be cheaper then the PS5/nextbox likely will be.

Uhm, think he meant without upgrading. But even if you want to upgrade, beside the point that you can't wait 10 years (10 years ago, for example, GPUs were still running on AGP), there are a lot of people (majority, I'd say) that simply don't want to bother with that.

While PC gaming certainly has lot of benefits, having closed box that's paid for once and wll serve you for next 8 or more years (like in this cycle) also has its own benefits. Unless it breaks down, that is...but that happens to PCs as well.
