Computer games.


Genuine question, and this is coming from someone who owns a PS4 and have traditionally loved them, but...

Why do you still play consoles?

They used to have benefits - you could plug and play instantly, build physical libraries, have uniform accessories unattainable to the PC gamer and they were much cheaper than a PC. DLC wasn't a thing either - what you bought on cart was what you got.

But you can now have a PC hooked up to a TV and play it in the same way, you can build a decent gaming PC for not much more than a console and you have to download and install games, so they're not even plug and play - and of course you have microtransactions and DLC up to the eyeballs. You can even use an XBox/PS4 controller on PC.

So what's the point of them? I can't see one advantage they have on a PC anymore.
 
Cant stop running my mates over, done it twice the last 2 nights, I of course find it very amusing and it is an "accident", they on the other hand seem to get quite annoyed.




Thats when I circle back and finish em off.

:coffee::coffee::coffee:

I am DYING to play it but it's not out on Mac so I can't play it on my MacBook and our kids PC is CS:GO only ATM. Rats.

Soon.

Friend's don't do PC's.
I work looking at a computer screen all day.
Games like FIFA just aren't as good on PC.

Mega Drive II.....pfft.....casual!!

We had a Mega Drive with the Master System Converter and 32X.

AFAIK it is all still in my mum's attic.

Indeed, but I think people buy consoles out of habit now rather than practicality, because if you AND your friends used PCs in the living room instead, that wouldn't be an issue.
