We always have the naysayers and PC elitists spount the same thing every generation of consoles and it always turns out the same way. Console titles look barely different from X year titles on PC or hardly a leap on current gen.. "Xbox 1.5!" they say. "PS3.5!" Then we have the Nintendo users go to extrodinary lengths to prove they don't care about graphics.. by getting more involved in more graphics comparison talk. Awesome.

And when the dust settles after the fanboy wars at launch, a few years in when we get great looking games on them. We STILL get well, hur durrr PC iz da best derp welcome to 2013 comments. Its grating. The fact that you have to spend multitudes times in those years to get something remotely close in performance doesn't mean anything at all. Nope.

PS. I also like gaming on PC.

It's only in response to console elitists, you know, those who argue about some marginal difference between the consoles as if it really mattered. *Looks at countless XB360 vs. PS3 performance, resolution, and texture quality threads. ;) Anyway, it's inaccurate to say that this happened every generation, because there was a time when consoles were always BETTER than PC's upon their release (pre-6th generation.) During the 6th generation PC games were comparable at the launch of the consoles. At the advent of the 7th generation; however, the PC had Crysis, and the consoles had nothing comparable. The only thing holding PC gaming back is not technology, but the type of games that demand graphical prowess have transitioned to consoles as their main developing platforms. With the next generation of consoles, so will we see advancements in the technical feats of PC Gaming. 

Got to go out now, but I'll write a full reply when I get back
