Well yahh pc market spends more on hardware, you payed 2k for hardware to play a inferior version of a game i play on a $300 console. Makes no sense to me but to each their own.

Where do the game sale most ? says enough to me.

Exactly how to you figure that out?,a 500$ PC got today would easy outperfom the PS4 when it comes to 3rd party games and does (Unless you think cos batman = all games?? if so thats just silly). Also i have never ever spend 2k on my pc but i love how thats always the defence stance with console only gamers. It costs like 2k to outperfom my 300 console, You cant plug your pc into your tv (Even when thats what im using mine on now) you cant use joypads etc etc. So many mis facts and lies gets spread by console only gamers against pc its not even funny just sad...

Bullshit.... I just assambled a fairly good, mid-end PC worth 800 euros, and guess what, it has issues running Witcher 3 on highest settings in 1080p. Of course, the guy could have opted for a cheaper mask, smaller HDD and no SSD, but then what the fuck are we talking about? Truth is, if you want a gaimg rig (and only the rig itself) that lasts you 3 years for gaming and get some work squeezed out on it, get ready to spend some 1000 euros.

I am not saying it is a bad investment, but it is a fact that hardware wise a gaming PC is far more expensive then a console. And a 500$ PC is a low-end garbage bin, that you should be ready to invest in in a year or so. I love PC gaming, and I probably played more on PC then consoles in the last 3-4 years, but lets be honest here. Games are cheaper, true, but so are used or older games on consoles...

I call bullshit on your post. When did you build this 500 pc, 2 years ago??.
Also do you believe that the X1 and PS4 versions of Witcher 3 are the same as the maxed out PC version??.

If you want to compare versions put shadows on medium draw distance to medium turn of AF16x or put it at 2x, lower down your AA or turn it off, turn off HBAO+ and Hairworks since consoles dont have them and try running that version on your 2 year old 500 PC since that version will be closer to the one your playing on your PS4,X1.. Or maybe you did build that 500 pc this year and if so and it cant play the witcher looking better then the PS4 version you got ripped off my friend..

I actually build or help people build themseleves fairly often. SO no, no BS. And I was talking about an 800 euro PC if you managed to actually read my post. The thing is, the only reason you should even consider the PC gaming market is if you have an expensive PC. If no, just playing around with settings and noticing compatiblity issues day 1, does not worth the fuss. Deal with it. This is not me speaking, this is the industry in general. And no overinflated freemium market will change this anytime soon . Demo videos are fine, about AAA multiplatform titles that look better on PC, but sure as hell they should actually advertise that quality with a pricetag.

And yes, a 500$ PC today is a garbage bin. Thank god I do not have to work on one But if you are fine with playing DotA 2, then I guess its more then enough for your needs
