This is a chart that gives you the idea about how much cheaper PC is and the build I made is actually very similar too the build I have listed. There are other reasons why you should switch

Better Game Selection- PC has a better game selection overall you can't deny it there's multiple stores to buy from, tons of free games, lots of genres not widely available on Console.

Better Graphics this is very obvious one but its another to add because we like beautiful games and if you don't then would you rather play watch dogs or battlefield 4 on a NES or a PC?

Mods - PC has lots of Mods that can improve games/ make new games out of old games, Modding is frowned upon on Consoles and some Developers on PC go out of the way to make the game friendly to mods.

More Hardcore/Casual - There's more super hardcore players and we all seen those guys playing StarCraft for hours upon hours without stopping and then there's casual players playing Minecraft or casual indie games.


There's many more pros to be listed but I don't want this thread to be too long

Or why would they buy one in the first place, don't talk logic. Besides people buy and do different things, so maybe a pc gamer would buy a ps3 controller, personally I prefer the ps3 controller over xbox.


Where did I mention shitbox controller? Logitech makes ps2 styled controllers for far less money. Most people who play pc games aren't doing it with a ps3 controller. (Actually most don't use controllers because they are so much slower anyways) Yes it's an option if you own one but seeing how it's proprietary , yes you would need a driver and in this case it makes sense. It's like buying a ps2 controller for the ps3 and bitching it doesnt work. You have to get an adaptor. In this case a driver and it's free. However ps4 controller does work out of the box which for those who care for it, is nice.

Lucky you, I had issues with BF3 and BF4, took me a few hours to just set it all up and play. My friends had same issues when they first got it, of course they had me to help them fix what was wrong.. KB/M playing I actually like a lot more. I play a lot better with a controller, but I can do so much more with the mouse surprisingly.

It's just the fact that, the general population doesn't even know what goes into a computer, so they don't know what they need for gaming. E.G. Oh, a $3000 dollar Mac? That should do the trick! Even though all it has is a GT 650M and a high end i7.

This is a chart that gives you the idea about how much cheaper PC is and the build I made is actually very similar too the build I have listed. There are other reasons why you should switch

Better Game Selection- PC has a better game selection overall you can't deny it there's multiple stores to buy from, tons of free games, lots of genres not widely available on Console.

Better Graphics this is very obvious one but its another to add because we like beautiful games and if you don't then would you rather play watch dogs or battlefield 4 on a NES or a PC?

Mods - PC has lots of Mods that can improve games/ make new games out of old games, Modding is frowned upon on Consoles and some Developers on PC go out of the way to make the game friendly to mods.

More Hardcore/Casual - There's more super hardcore players and we all seen those guys playing StarCraft for hours upon hours without stopping and then there's casual players playing Minecraft or casual indie games.


There's many more pros to be listed but I don't want this thread to be too long
