Absolute rubbish.

To compete does not mean "can beat all PCs regardless of price".  To compete means to provide competitive value for some % of the market.

PS4 Pro clearly is competitive as you can not build a PC comparable to PS4 for $399.  Also PS4 Pro's GPU is more powerful than about 90% of GPUs on steam.  It is not only on par with average PC graphics, but beats the average PC by a lot.

Steam doesn't necessarily mean much though. I have a steam account and I'm not a PC player. Not only that, but the PS4 pro's specs will become more and more irrelevant as time goes by. So for people who are into PC because of graphics, it's just not the same.

You're talking about a small segment of pc gamers who would not jump platform no matter what. House is talking about those people who would have got a decent PC (nothing fancy) for better graphics. Just look at the steam stats - the majority play at lower than 1080p. I can even see some of those jumping from PC to PS4.
