Calling people names? I am just saying what is true. The phrase "PC Master Race" was made by PC gamers. I agree that consoles can hold PC's back but that just shows how much consoles matter when it comes to return on the sales of these games. If the opportunity presents itself why not allow equality. PC gamers don't get equality, just the few with the power to push their PC's. There are more console gamers to have marvel at these games, so if the ability is there to reach ultra settings, I cannot see where the problem is.


No it wasn't it actually started out as a dispariging term by Yahtzee when making fun of the fact that PC gamers tend to like "overly complex" games. Specifically the fact that The Witcher had a "complex" inventory and quest system. It blew up from there mostly used as an insult towards PC gamers by console gamers. Of course being called the master race as an insult is actually kinda funny so PC gamers started using it ironically (tho I am sure some idiots take it seriously) despite the Nazi connotations.
