I own both of them. Play some games on console (Xbox) and some on pc. I think pc is better like it has more games and of course free to play online multiplayer (looking at you Nintendo online and Xbox live) ANYWAYS I have my all time favourite game which is just dance that I can't play on pc so I think I can't survive without either of them?? What do you prefer for gaming?

 

[Snowesque]

PC all the way; I like easily having my saves across various PCs (if I need to) and having my games all in one place. Being able to type on the keyboard is a big plus too, and being able to pick between various controllers/controls.

 

[slatka]

i think PC is just so much better and so much easier to game on, i actually hate consoles i bought an xbox a few years ago and literally played it for about 2 weeks and never touched it again.

PC

I think it definitely depends on what sort of experience one is seeking. For me, I love both, but I also love the nostalgia of playing on an actual console and being able to do local multiplayer with it!

I prefer to play on a console rather than a PC, but I'm also quite bad at using a keyboard to control a game. Plus, I play mostly Nintendo games so I find myself playing console games more anyways.

Console gaming is a clear preference for me. I do think that The Sims is fantastic on PC, for reasons of mods and custom content, which greatly enhance a game of that type. Otherwise, I avoid gaming on PC. I prefer the simplicity of consoles, where I buy a console, and don't have to worry about my specs lining up with the game coming out that I want. Over the years, I've had horrible experiences trying to play The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 on PCs, because I couldn't get a PC that could run them like it should. Loading screens lasting forever, horrible camera movement lag - those are terrible, terrible things and with a console, I know the games coming out for it won't run anywhere near that badly. When a game runs terribly on a PC, I start wanting to buy parts to make it run, and that costs way too much, and then those parts are instantly outdated.

Aside from The Sims, I have no interest in PC exclusives, so I thankfully only have to deal with PC for The Sims.

Yeah, I prefer consoles and console games. I used to be big into PC gaming growing up up until about a year or two ago, but I’m no longer interested in it. Now I get to catch up on the console games I missed during that time like Xenoblade Chronicles X!

Console! I'm so use to playing on console because I never had a computer stable enough to run most games, so I have a very limited experience with playing on a computer.

 

[imiya]

I'm torn! I find PC easier to discover neat Indie games for, but I also love not having to worry about my PC not being good enough for certain games with Console releases.

 

[Bosmer]

I play both pc and console, but yeah for me PC is better for certain games (like skyrim, sims etc) while console can be better for other games if that makes sense? I used to go through long periods of playing on console, getting bored and switch to PC and vice versa.

I prefer PC since it's overall objectively better in the sense that:
- I can play any game I've bought on PC in the past *literally as long as I've used a PC to game* on whatever computer I own rather than having to keep old systems around or buy 20 HD complete definitive collectors edition with Knuckles rereleases.
- The games are universal in the sense that I can buy a game and play it both on my desktop at home and my laptop anywhere. So long as there's a PC with an internet connection around, I have access to my entire PC library.
- I can use literally whatever controller I want to. My Duelshock 4 gets more use as my PC controller than as an actual PS4 controller.
- Easy access to a ton of mods if I ever want to use them, which I rarely do, but it's nice knowing I can add content or change a game to better suit me if I wanted to. Not to mention games that are broken pieces of crap like 95% of Bethesda games which the community fixes faster and better than the actual developer does.
- Access to pretty much most games so long as somebody has uploaded it to the internet. Whether this be old games that are no longer sold and supported that somebody has uploaded a cracked version of, small indie games that otherwise wouldn't have the money to publish on console, ROM hacks, etc.
- Emulators. I have all the old consoles I emulate in the cupboard and attic, but it's still convenient to just emulate them than set up various different consoles and have a ton of physical stuff hanging around.
- The option to play a game on a various amount of hardware setups meaning my computer may end up being a little out of date to play a new release on the highest settings, but if I don't care too much about visuals I can just lower some settings rather than buy an entirely new system.
- Free online play, outside of a very VERY select few examples that are largely MMO's.

I would probably sell a good amount of my console stuff if it were announced all the exclusive titles were going to be made available on PC, especially the current generation of consoles where a physical copy really isn't worth that much to me since you get nothing but the game in the box these days, not to mention that game is missing a ton of stuff you HAVE to download anyway. At best I would keep the Switch only for its convenience.

I was raised on consoles and they're basically what I've played, save for a few exceptions, basically everything I've played on. As such I'm sort of a console person by default.

That said, in more recent years I've become more interested in PC because there are some games that I've been interested that aren't released on Nintendo consoles (since I buy Nintendo ones) but were multiplatform (PS4/Xbox One/PC) since I skipped the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Unfortunately I haven't ever had a computer that is capable of playing really graphically intensive games, but I plan to upgrade in the future when I can so I'm hoping that I'll be able to get into PC games then.

 

[auroral]

Because I've never had a computer good for / meant for gaming, I'll have to say console! Plus... truthfully most games that appeal to me are on Nintendo consoles already :' D but I do have my fair share of steam games! Yet I keep finding myself wishing they'd be ported to switch, anyway. It's just more convenient for me, I guess.

 

[LadyDestani]

I enjoy both, but if I had to choose I'd say PC for the convenience. Console gaming was better back in the days before there were so many different ones to choose from, all with exclusive games. I can buy a decent (doesn't have to be top of the line) gaming computer for cheaper than the cost of keeping up with all the consoles. And I can get away with updating my computer a piece at a time versus having to buy a whole new console every few years. And when I upgrade my computer, I don't lose access to the older games. It wasn't so bad when consoles were backwards compatible, but you don't see that as much anymore. So yeah, I wish more games were available on the PC. But I still have a few consoles for those must-have games.

 

[Cress]

Usually console, it just feels more right to me I guess. But it really depends on the game, stuff like Overwatch I'd much rather play on PC.

 

[Hayleigh_1]

PC ALL DAY LONG! I couldn't survive without Rainbow Six Seige and CSGO! But I do love all of the Zelda and Mario games.

 

[Ghostkid]

i prefer console. if i ever had to play a pc i think id probably end up using the arrow keys for movement

 

[Miharu]

I have to say PC, I used to enjoy console games a lot, but once I got a PC everything changed hahaha <3 There's just so much you can do compared to a console hahaha, the only thing that sucks is if they release console only games then it's a rip for PC users ; v ;

 

[ali.di.magix]

Console for sure. However I just bought a controller that works for my PC, so I could give a few more PC games a shot. I'm terrible at picking up keyboard controls, so having a controller would make it much better for me. I've pretty much always been big for console gaming though, right through childhood to now, so it's always first pick for me.
