1. Because of the price? *facepalm* I said this, so I'll be more clear - the cost is of the overall system and games. To just cherry pick parts is only done so to biased someones point. If you look at the entire setup cost and games over 3 years, PC's are cheaper (monitor, games, OS carried over/upgrade etc).  Kids just like to ignore the fact that mummy and daddy paid for the TV separately.

2. The comparison is flawed because consoles are so weak and you can get very powerful gpus for dirt cheap. So many console owners cry about this $1000 PC needed when in fact a $100 gpu is good enough to beat the consoles.

3. You could just go and buy a PC off the shelf ? My argument is much better - consoles loan themselves to social gaming far more than PCs.

  1. OMG!!!!! NO ONE IS DISPUTING THIS FACT.

    And you are stil hammering a point that is completely off base. What has anything you just pointed out got to do with the performcance of a GPU? Does this mean that if I only buy used PS4 games when I can get them for $10 and never pay for PS+ then every game I play on my PS4 is running better than a game played on another persons PS4???????? 

    The only kid here is you, firstly for even resorting to such a tone and secondly for seeming to unable to get a very simple point. This thread is about performance and making comparisons of such. Even if I were not talking about consoles and PCs. Would you compare a $200 PC GPU to a $1000 PC GPU both released in the same year? 

    You like some thers here (funny enough all PC ppl) Keep going on and on about this whole biased point nonsense. How is the point biased if all the point is about is a games performance on any specific hardware? How is the point biased if I am basically asking why someone would compare a game running on a more expensive GPU to a cheaper GPU. Why isn't that comparison being made between similarly priced GPUs???? You guys keep doging this question. Ok... indulge me. Please. Take Metro redux, now tell me how you would arrive at what sub $200 PC  GPU runs the game best. 

  2. Lol... ok, if you so. But hey lets assume you are right. Are you telling me that we can walk into a store and buy a PC with everything we get in a console for $400 and it will outperform the weak consoles? If so, please.. point me in the right direction. And if you can get you head in the game, you would see that no one is crying here. But I think its telling how you keep avoiding actually answering the questions asked but rather trying to dismiss them.

  3. Don't even know what you are talking about anymore. 
I think its enough though... its obvious you are either not listening or you rather just be talking about something else. So  will leave it alone. Thanks for your input though.
