    We all know you console propogandists only defend your rig cuz the bought collectibles are holding you, me included, hostage.

    There are zero to none pro's when it comes to console. multimedia?? link your pc to your tv boom netflix. sit on the couch with a controller? possible on PC aswel. Addons telling you what to do? no one is forcing you to use these, if you want to clear content through skill dont use addons?

    stop telling lies, there's nothing console does better then PC, coming from a console player.

    There's a reason mATX/ITX form factors exist: So you can fit your PC in your living room and you guessed it! Play games from your couch! I have a good friend who does just this. And I mean an IRL friend. I've used said mini PC myself. Oh... And guys, it's a beast that massively outperforms consoles.

    Reliability. A console is better at guaranteeing every single game you boot up will work 1st time without fail. Without having to spend endless hours trawling the net to pin point why that game won't load on your PC or why it's constantly crashing. Barring a fault that lies squarely with the devs, I can count on one finger how many games haven't worked straight out of the box on console. I can't say the same thing about my gaming pc.

    They just cannot figure out vast moajority of people aint into spending hours upon hours of fiddling with their PC to figure why it isnt working as advertised (they dont even have skills to do it as their knowledge about conputers is limited to "push this button to power it on")

    That's nothing more than speculation.

    But It will almost certainly be using AMD since AMD is cheaper than Intel/Nvidia and Sony/MS already have a relationship with them.

    I'm not sure why you wouldn't just build your own AMD PC though. For like $1000-1500, you can build a rig many times more powerful than the PS5.

    Maybe he doesnt want to restart eso all over again

    Maybe he like his guild/friend

    Also lots of console players doesnt care about having a powerful machine they just want to have fun and the console do that well egnough

    What are we talking about here? Because if it’s ESO, nobody with a knowledgable opinion of both platforms can say that this game is comparable on both.
    The game is built from the ground up for PC gaming.
    I have the game installed on a HDD on my PC and it still way outperforms, by a huge margin, the game on my PS4 pro with SSD.

    It’s no contest. Sorry guys.

    Pointless commentary that ignores 2/3 of the player base as well as the other 90% of the remaining third with terrible hardware. Keep this crap out of the thread please.

    What a salty little man, there's 0 reason to play ESO on PS - zero, nada, nope, none. PS should only be used for PS exclusives, it offers absolutely no benefits (it's not even anywhere near on par) over PC gaming.

    Ah yes, the "just build a PC argument "

    Yes, do that. If you're gonna give 400-500 EUR for a PS, you can get a PC which outperforms it in every single aspect for that money.

    Because there are many gaming related activities that a console can't do.

    One of the big things for me is my flight sims. You can't get proper flight sims for console, and you can't use high quality HOTAS units on console.

    There are many games that don't exist on console.

    For every console exclusive, there are 100 PC exclusives.

    That's why PC is better. It just does more.

    Hmmmm, maybe you should re read my comment, then insult me again. But at least attempt to get it correct this time. Clue: I never even insinuated that a PC doesn't run better than a console. In fact, I made it very clear that it was to do with the reliability when it comes to getting every game to work first time. Like every single game. You're lying through your teeth if you're claiming that you have never needed to update drivers, re configure *** to get a number of games you put into your pc to actually run smooth. Or maybe you've only played a couple or so games on your PC. I dunno. If that's the case, I'll happily retract my "lying" statement. So I await your next words of wisdom. No, I really do.

    First off PC players came in here swinging their little e-peens around in a PS5 discussion thread. No one cares if PC does everything better, with the way PC players try and jam this master race thing down your throat I would assume they all have little peens, jealousy and no confidence or they wouldn't always have to tell us how much better PC is.

    Quality is subjective.

    I don't blindly follow review boards and awards as a source of what a good game is.

    Play ESO effectively with a brand new sticker price of $250.....

    My list of reasons why I choose console started with the main and most important one. I'm on a budget. I have two kids, a mortgage, two car payments and a wife. Spending $1,000 - 1,500 for a gaming device just isn't in the cards.



    One thing I will say about the PC master race though - mom's meatloaf is always ready upstairs. (Intentional snark not directed at all the mature PC players who don't endlessly profess their l33tn355 on the forums.

    I remember a different forum when one guy asked a simple question accidentally in the PC side instead of console, and the PC fans just lashed out at him. For the life of me I doubt I can find it again but one reasonable soul said something along the lines of this is why people despise the PC community

    And people wonder why some hate PC, they never stop talking about it and try to force it down people’s throats

    I figure the PC players who deride console are simply envious that console players play the exact same game with the exact same features for one third the cost of the game appliance. And I don't miss running spreadsheets on my gaming appliance.

    When they throw the 'add-ons are a must' argument at me, I remind them that for console gamers, 'PC' is an abbreviation for 'Plenty of Crutches'.

    I've never had to fiddle with much to ever get any game I've ever played on PC to work, even 20 years ago when I first started playing pc games. Sure, some games you have to turn down/off shadows (depending on your rig)but other than that any tweaking is eye candy. Also, stop acting like driver updates takes a service technician. You hit the download button and then agree to some eula stuff and MAYBE have to restart your comp. It's about as tough as putting gas in my truck.

    I never got the whole console vs pc thing and don't care either way what people prefer but you just spewed a bunch of horse crap.

    I guess I had to buy a new vid card once in my life cuz I couldn't run a certain game but that was eons ago.

    I agree. 99% of the time though someone likes to tease console folks that pc is better and then the console folks come out swinging as if their honor is at stake. It's usually them that get butt hurt over nothing.
