Forums - Gaming - Console Wars: PC vs PS4/Xbox One (Round 5)

There is a certain convenience and popularity to a console that makes them desirable. However, a PC can do so much more when one isn't playing a game on it. I built mine for twice the cost of a console but I get 5 times the value. That said, I still keep a console or two around.

This.  You can have a crappy $400+ computer for daily tasks and a $400+ console for games.  Instead, you can combine that money for a very nice PC that outperforms both.  Since I'm always going to own a PC anyways, I find that I save a good deal of money by gaming on it as well.  I also get to benefit from cheaper games and free online.  In addition, I get to enjoy a very fast rig for daily tasks.
