PC Vs Consoles: Reasons Why PC Is Better Than Consoles!

Tags

The PC vs Consoles debate has been raging on for a long time now but which of the two is the better choice? When it comes to the PC vs Consoles debate then here are the reasons why PC is better than consoles!

Hardware Customization - When you buy a PC, you can choose what's inside.

Hardware Upgrading - PC users can replace pieces of hardware with faster ones and add more RAM.

Mouse/Keyboard - Yes, consoles support these devices too, but how many console games do? Oh and PC's can use PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One controllers and more.

Better Graphics - PC Monitors support far better resolutions, and all the games aswell. Anti Aliasing? A console gamers dream.

Economic Superiority - One of the most common arguments for consoles is their price. Sure, PC's cost more initially but you'll get more for the money than from buying a overpriced console, which is in fact a small PC too...but the hardware is weaker. Games for consoles are about 20% more expensive than games for PC. Let alone all the extras like PS4 Cameras, charging stations, cable extenders/adapters etc.. Very expensive stuff. If you own a console, you'll soon be spending more money than the average PC gamer.

Unlimited Storage Space - Stock PC's already have a bigger hard disk than any console. Do you want to install four 4TB HDD's on your PS4? You can't do that but on the PC, you can!

Mod Support - Many PC games can be modded. Mods can enhance you gaming experience greatly. Want more weapons in your games? Want to use Iron Man in GTA IV? Now you can... on PC's

Free Software - The selection of apps and games is ultimately larger for PC's. PC exlusive titles outnumber the console exclusives by far. And there's so much stuff for free!

Free Internet - Other than paying your ISPs fee, your internet is not bound to any more costs. The Online Services for consoles (Xbox Live, PS Network) take even more money out your pocket.

User Servicable - Your Video Card melted? Your CPU exploded? Not a problem for a PC, just switch the broken part with a new one. Console users still need to send the whole device to the manufacturer.

Variety Of Uses - Professional video and photo editing, audio altering/producing, doing homework, spaceshuttle navigation computation etc, etc, etc. The possibilities are endless on the PC... On consoles...not so much.

Emulation - The PC can play games from the PS1, PS2, PS3 (though ps3 emulation is still new) N64, Dreamcast, Xbox 360 (being worked on), GBA, GBC, NDS and a lot more while backwards compatibility for consoles are being wiped out.
