If this the way the console market is going, I'll go PC. The whole point of having a console is to have a set platform. What's the point of having an upgradeable closed architecture? Devs have increasing gotten poor at optimizing for one spec level. This is a disaster waiting to happen. It's all the cons of the PC platform with none of the benefits.

What cons are those?

Poorly optimization of software and hardware specifications that are a moving target. Consoles had already acquired some of the annoying cons of PC gaming previously. The increasingly poor Q&A and need for day one patches being among them. My PS4 is looking more and more like a inferior PC gaming experience with minimal mod access, paid online play, and higher software prices.
