All the time. I don't understand why they do it. I own all consoles, as well as a pc that I built myself, and I don't go around parading that system x is better than systems y and z. Even if I had just one system, I still wouldn't do it. I never sit and think to myself about how I own a better piece of media than others and that I should point out the flaws in the other devices.
The worst part, though, is how almost all of the posts about pc gaming contain so many incorrect "facts"; like needing to spend $1000+, this post with the not hooking up your pc to a tv or not having the "couch experience". My pc is 100x more of a couch experience because it has endless media capabilities and I have a wireless keyboard. I play all games through my tely. the false facts and desperation make me giggle. I also saw someone recently say that pc games are not cheaper than console games; I meant to direct them to the recent capcom hundle bundle, but alas, I failed and forgot to do so |
What's with the persecution complex of certain pc gamers though? Maybe that's natural when one group is larger than the other. For a lot of people it's simply enough to hang out on the couch and play some games by themselves or with friends in party chat. They're simply not interested in modding, emulating, strategy games or mmo's, nor in an overload of old games, indies, and early access games.
Sure you can do the same thing on PC, yet if all you want is to play the latest popular game then consoles are good enough. Consoles are limited, but they're good at what they do.
It's called the paradox of choice. Many options doesn't always mean it's perceived as better.
