PS4 is 400 since last november, and can do 1080p/60fps, so...

There's nothing I can really say to this. I just want to highlight that someone somewhere can actually post something like this in a thread like this.

Nothing wrong with what I said, it's pointless to build a PC 25% more expensive than a PS4 that will be useless in like 2 years and a PS4 will endure at least 5-6 years.
People would better invest a little more into building a PC to game. But nothing wrong with doing this either, I just don't see any good point in it.

My PC becomes pointless in 2 years why? I spent $600 and everything I play looks fine to me. My last PC didn't cost much more and I spent 4 years gaming in 1200P.

Your comment about the price of PS+ would be a lot more relevant if you didn't get 24 games a year with it.

 

Also console performance actually gets better without doing anything under the hood, games get better looking and run better the longer you have it. In order to achieve the same effect on PC of games looking better and running better you have to upgrade.

 

A PC is at its best the day you buy it, a console only gets better the longer you have it.
