I have a good gaming PC mostly because I need a good PC for my work but I don't play on it I play on consoles. I think people will always try to downplay the system you're gaming on no matter what it is. PC gamers are as guilty as console gamers. I also think that the effort put in PC games should be recognized by console gamers. Just because PCs can be more powerful it doesn't mean a lot of efforts weren't put in those games. Everytime we see people saying PC doesn't count for whatever reason, no wonder some of them are acting like that. You can't say consoles are such beasts that they produce the best graphics ever blablabla... and then say but PC doesn't count.

I found that the biggest problem with gaming on a work PC that is built with high specs is that it is counterproductive. Really counterproductive.

You're almost better off gaming on a console if you use a PC workstation for your job/livelihood unless you have really strict habits regarding play time when you're supposed to be on the clock, work-wise. 

I had two PCs when I was doing a lot of gaming on PC (I prefer to play on consoles once again). One was for playing games and had nothing installed on it but Steam and a HDD full of game installs. The other was for work, which by the nature of the work (3D rendering/animation) had better specs than the gaming PC, but that didn't actually matter. It was just a gaming machine, hooked up to the HDTV in the living room.
