THIS IS NOT ABOUT WHICH PLATFORM COSTS MORE,  COST LESS, HAS MORE GAMES, LESS GAMES, HAS MORE GAMERS OR LESS GAMERS, HAS CHEAPER GAMES, MORE EXPENSIVE GAMES.....ETC

"This is about the sense, or lack of it there of, of comparing a multiplatform game across platforms and pitting a PC version of the game running on a RIG whose "hardware" costs 4-10 times more than whats inside a console."

How else can I say all that? Its not about the long term justifciation saving benefits of that more expensive rig. Its that you do not put a heavyweight boxer and a feather weight boxer in the same ring. Sheesh.

So this thread is about only showing one side of the medal (the initial costs of the hardware) and trying to taboo the continuing costs (online subscriptions, higher game prices, higher periphery prices) and the lack of options (free choice of resolution vs. fps, free choice of other graphic options, free choice of input device) and other advantages of PC gaming... like you always try.

Yeah, we get it. If you can't handle other opinions, don't start such a thread!
