I got it when I was young,
PCs are more expensive, require some skills, have long install times and poor local multiplayer. Requiring a focus on online lay
Little Timmy and Tiny Susie can just slap in Golden Axe and be killing the hordes of the underdark inside 30 seconds.
Meanwhile the Commadore 64 took several minutes just to load.
But now it makes no sense
PCs that can play new releases are pretty much the same price as the current consoles (as well as all the cool stuff you own a PC for), requires abolutely no skills at all, and every is complete literate.
Meanwhile the current consoles have HUGE installation times, and even when installs have long boring loading screens/times and there is no focus on local multiplayer beyond crappy party games.
People are playing Minecraft on the PS4.
I'll repeat that People are playing Minecraft online on the PS4
Why?
p
Meanwhile Microsoft and Sony's continued selling points for their consoles are that they are bad PCS. "You can watch Netflix and porn on it, you can check your e-mails on it. some games have very limited mods on it!"
There is literally no advantage to it whatsoever anymore.
Is it just out of "loyalty" and a console war? Along with the media telling people that PC gamers are atheist losers who probably like BDSM and watch Dragonball Z?
Seriously, I'm not trying to joke or troll, what benefits do consoles have today?
I mean I guess they have exclusives and "Well all my friends play on it." but that's not really benefitting consoles, it's like arguing that a horse drawn carriage is better than a car because your friends use it.

San Bernardino shooter Upset Over Xmas Lunch
San Bernardino terrorist Syed Farook shot up his co-workers because he was angry over having to attend a mandatory Christmas-themed lunch, where he was coerced to pose for a group photo in front of a decorated tree, the FBI said.
In the photo – taken before Farook excused himself from the 2015 year-end party to fetch his assault rifles – the 28-year-old is seen looking surly, his hands stiffly by his sides, standing next to co-workers, one of whom was wearing a Santa Claus beard.
Emails discovered by investigators reveal Farook’s wife and partner-in-crime, Pakistani native Tashfeen Malik, objected to her husband’s Christmas-themed mandatory training session.
“She had essentially made the statement in an online account that she didn’t think that a Muslim should have to participate in a non-Muslim holiday or event,” San Bernardino police chief Jarrod Burguan told ABC News in an interview that ran on Nightline.
“That really is one over the very, very few pieces of potential evidence that we have that we can truly point to and say, ‘That probably is a motive in this case.’”
