The other day, I put together a GTX 750 Ti + G3258 build that probably surpasses consoles in graphics quality. It was $500, and considering you need to spend a stupid amount of money on Xbox Live and poorly optimized exclusives, it becomes worth it. And console gamers are children. THAT'S RIGHT, STEREOTYPES EXIST EVERYWHERE. Unless you're 11 and you like playing with 11 year olds, then by all means it's whatever. I'd prefer you stay on consoles, then. Competitively speaking, a mouse and keyboard always outdoes a console controller. There's a reason consoles games always have aim assist and PC doesn't. I've met numerous competitive players that guarantee you that having an FPS and refresh rate of 120Hz or higher will improve your tracking significantly. And these are the people that will get the game down to an exact science to assure victory, so they do know what they're talking about. Also, the human eye doesn't see in frames. There's a lot about the eye that we don't actually know, it's pretty complex (so complex that assuming we see in frames is actually pretty stupid, and that's just science). There's a certain point that having a higher frame count in a film begins to make it look unnatural is a majority of the reason, and given the advantages a higher refresh rate can offer in gaming, it's sometimes necessary. If you're OK with accepting what you're told, like any good child, it's w/e then. (Black Ops 2 PC actually restricts framerate to 120Hz in competitive mode because having it higher gives way too much of an advantage FYI) PCs can offer an equivalent or superior media experience if you actually take the time to set it up to how you would like it. You've never partaken in a LAN, btw. I've had real fun with friends on PC. PCs have a considerable amount of exclusive games. What you're arguing is "PC doesn't have as many exclusive AAA titles because developers and console manufacturers, the same people to sell you sub par games and consoles, are greedy." At least it doesn't take me 8 hours to beat PC exclusives like it does on a console (those 'modern' games are 2ez mode). Even Destiny, I beat its story in two days. I would have beaten it sooner, but I had school on the first day. Consoles have controllers. Steam has big picture mode. Often times, people choose not to use a controller, because you lose a lot of edge competitively (controllers are inferior). Tell me again, what are you arguing about here? I have. I do. It's not hard, you're just doing it wrong, boy. When you only buy a PC from Walmart every two years, then yes. When you build one, you don't need to (often times, people just choose to, just to keep up with resolution changes). My old HD 7870GHz still probably runs 1080p fine, I just wanted to get a 780 because I could. I forgot about resolutions. Peasants don't get and won't get 4K gaming this generation, and probably the next. Hmm. I'm pretty sure my PC will run 1080p longer than consoles will exist. I built my first PC last year, having had no prior experience fiddling with PCs. I'm still using my first PC. When I was 15, I took apart my laptop and replaced the thermal paste. I was only 15 and I could figure something like that out lol. If you have an IQ that's even slightly above the triple digit mark, I don't see there being any issues.
