What is the point of Xbox?
Xbox has repeated the same terrible mistakes for over a decade. The reason is simple: its priorities are back-to-front.
You're viewing a single thread.
What's the point of consoles when PCs exist? I don't understand how we have spent the entire modern PC era still clinging to locked down, limited consoles. And PCs aren't expensive if you're not buying some laughable top of the line garbage that runs games at super-ultra-mega-hyper high settings at 50billion pixels @ 4,096Hz.
Yes they are. A PS5 costs £389.99.
What gaming PC can you build for that?
That sorta money doesn't even buy you a great GPU these days. Maybe a decent one. And then you only need a little more money for a CPU, RAM, Mainboard, storage and a power supply. And if you're feeling fancy, maybe a case as well.
I love how you specifically say "gaming PC" because I know you and every so-called "gamer" these days have to have some over the top, expensive, overheating, power-sucking pile of trash to run games at ridiculous resolutions/refresh rates with blinding, ugly graphics full of so many garbage lighting effects and muddy megatextures that the game is nearly unplayable.
If you can't run a game on a ~400 UKBucks machine, the game isn't worth playing.
Why even bother with a PC when I have a stick and a hoop?
If it can't be played with a few bits of wood and plastic, then the game isn't worth playing.
I got a series s for £150 when my PC couldn't run Elden Ring properly. It seemed cost effective vs a PC upgrade for playing the latest games.
