And a decent gaming PC costed 4x - 6x of a home console in the 90s and 3x - 4x of a home console a decade ago. Now you get a decent gaming PC for 2x - 3x of a console. The price gap between console hardware and PC hardware is shrinking over the years.

it happened during the PS2 era that console gaming grew segnificantley in europe, in 1985 PCs didnt even existed
