To buy now or later?

Think youre making out PC's to be some sort of endless struggle when theyre not. You can get a decent PC built for much less than double the price of a current console.

And of course they are "technically" better games. Doesnt make them more fun though.

I came from PC gaming RtM, but came to apprieciatte the convenience of consoles, As Simon says Pc's have their plus points but so do Consoles.

If VR proves itself on PC I might get back into PC gaming.

Both do, of course. And I came from a mainly console gaming background. I think the convenience is a bit overstated. Aside from the initial purchase of a PC its very simple to play PC games. Just understand your PC's general stats and use 'CanIRunIt.com"

Rtm it is when it works, which is 99 times out of 100, but that 1 time is fecking annoying and could be too much for some people, consoles work in comparison 100/100. And im sorry it is a continuous struggle, its like owning a classic car, when it works it is amazing but you are going to need to go back and tune stuff up, the older it gets the more tuning required, but that is half a the fun of a pc, and i will also say you wil be hard pressed to put a good pc together for less than £600.

Simon Ive had consoles (both xbox and ps) die on me so dont know where youre getting 100/100 from. Ive been on this PC which was only good when built and not great for about 7 years now.

I understand some people would blow a fuse if something happened to their PC though. I just feel its worth the small amount of work needed to be a PC gamer.

Thats physically breaking vs driver, bsod, gpu, cpu issues etc. Thats why i say a console works 100/100 vs PC. Like i said dont get me wrong and over 3 years a pc becomes better value, but even that small amount of hassle is too much and in general you dont get that in consoles. And think every game you start now you fine tune to work on your pc, turn aa on, put shadows on med, is the v sync on? Some people just arent intereted. Console you pull out the box, plug in 2 cables and stick in a disc. Horses for courses, mate. I enjoy my pc but im a tinkerer, but i have worked with and built pcs all my life, i know the baggage that comes along with them.

Some people just arent intereted.


Thats probably it. But a shlt ton are and I am one

I'm not interested in messing about, thats why consoles suit me, as I said though VR might pull me back.

A VR space strategy/simulation might convince me to go VR

Sony have just confirmed Europe will be getting the price cut shortly, previous years this has been done around black friday
