I think he is confounding two different thing.  What PC gamers argue is that the long-run cost of Pc hardware+ games+zero online fees is cheaper.

It isn't, I said in that post that price isn't and will never be one of Pc's advantages, it's got many more advantages but price isn't one of them. Also let's not make it seem as if we've never heared the argument " I can build a $400 Pc which will outperfom the PS4" whether or not their morons is debatable.

Online::

PS4 == £40.00 annually (£200.00 or $315.00 over 5 years)

PC == £0.0 annually (£0.00 or $0.00 over 5 years) :p

 

Game prices at launch::

PS4 == £44.00 (10 games = 440) (100 games == £4,400.00 or $6,924.00)

PC == £35.00 (10 games = 350) (100 games == £3,500 or $5,500.00)

 

While PC hardware will always be more expensive the price of software is a HUGE advantage to me, not paying for online also helps. Heck PC games are even cheaper than Wii U games and often on par with 3DS games (dafaq) in the UK. Truth be told in my part of the world consoles are actually more expensive, even when excluding piracy.

And here's how to cut corners:

 

Buy 5 Years worth of PS+ subscriptions during black Friday: $29.99*5= $149.5

Buy games on PS4 for $60 and resell for $30: $30*10=$300 ( Plus you can probably get games much cheaper than that )

 

A decent PC to allow you to play games for the next five years will cost you at least $600 that only leaves you $250 to use ( for games ) and you'll already be over the price of consoles. Also PC games aren't as cheap as some people make it out to be, just saying.
