So you use one isolated event as proof that PC gaming is more local multiplayer focused and has more spectatcular events? Dreamhack doesnt proove anything, its a fact that console gaming is favoring more local gameplay as i can just give over my controller to another person. There wouldnt be a need for lan parties like Dreamchack if it would be so easy on PC.

Yes. The PC has larger, bigger, badder and more epic events.
Just to prove it is not an "isolated event" here is the Sydney Gamers League:





Of course. Lots of PC-orientated households have multiple PC's and will happily do local multiplayer... And pretty much 99% of multiplayer games support that.

How many console games support Split Screen multiplayer these days? Exactly. Don't pretend your console has a big advantage here. It doesn't.

Your move, console gamer.

Honestly, I don't see the average console gamer being so hardcore that they would go out with their system just to play games with strangers. When I'm go out with friends, we're usually doing something else. Is that something that you're into?
