True, there are 'everyone is against my company of choice' comments for all platforms.

Here's an old thread, peaceful co-existence is possible

It died, since there was nothing to bicker about (well except about whether handhelds could be included...)

Anyway in a thread titled PC vs Console, what else can you expect.

Both is best. My kids play Minecraft on 3 systems actually. PC for mods, PS4 for 4 player splitscreen, iPad cause they just can't get enough of it :/ PS4 has our main world though. On PC no world survives very long with constant changing of mods.

What PS2 emulation are you using and when it comes to the BIOS file which you are using to interact with the Game itself, what file are you pointing the emulator towards?

Also a BIOS system, while very simple compared to an Operating system like Windows is still by its actions an Operating system, the simplicity of the system doesn't dictate what it is.

Anyone who has been at at LAN party with the right games knows the superiority of PC gaing.

You've never been to one before?.

Pretty awesome hangouts I'd have to say, back when I was in my early to mid 20's me and my mates would all get together every weekend and have LAN parties where we'd all be hooked up together and play all sorts of co-op/multiplayer games all day long, of course we all work full time jobs now and our tastes have changes a bit so we don't really hang out as much as we used to. Still LAN parties are definitely a fun event to be a part of, especially if you're the one with a USB/storage drive full of games to hand to other friends/folks to save them having to download them instead.

lol don't sweat about it, you'll find one in time =P, there will always be LAN events either from friends or public. My highschool hosted a few in the last two years before I graduated as an example.

because lan play isnt possible on console? also while its less popular now on systems lan play is in fewer pc games now to prevent play via things like hamachi instead of official servers

Maybe you'll find some like minded people at work, you never know.
I lucked out when I started working for a small software company. It was sort of tradition to play fps in lan at the end of the day. First duke nukem 3D, then Quake, Half-life, and Unreal tournament. One of us even made a custom map for half-life of the office building. Good way to blow off steam at the end of the work day, shoot up the office :) 7 of us also decided to get together in the office on a weekend to play Age of Empires 2. Unfortunately the game got so slow with close to a thousand units marching over the map that we never finished the match.

Too bad that all went away when the company grew up. It spoiled online multiplayer for me though. That never reaches the heights of sitting in the same room.

Yeah, I don't understand people feeling personally attacked when someone criticizes their console of choice.  Seems rather childish to me.   As is the need to downplay everything that isn't your system of choice.

As much as that sucks, you can still have a "lan" party while connecting to official servers, assuming your connection is strong.

There are tons of immortal LAN PC games that will never get old. UT, WC3, CS 1.6 among others.

If you LAN consoles you're basically stuck playing only Halo all night.
