    I paid $400 for a Series X and $300 for a PC. You all know the specs of the Series X so I won't bother listing those. The PC has an i7 8700k, 16GB of DDR4 RAM, and a GTX 1060 6GB. No doubt the Series X is more powerful than my PC but I'm happy with them both.

      There's plenty of videos like that. There's one titled something like "I built a 474$ xbox", had a pc for that price with the same performance as an xbox. They're pretty much the same, it just depends on whether you want to do some work on your pc or want it strictly for gaming/spotify/youtube. Performance wise they're pretty much the same, with the pc being slightly better (but it's also more of a pain in the ass to setup and to maintain unlike a console that's just plug and play)

      @@slammedsandoval That is definitely true. But I think the bigger picture is that a lot people don't want to deal with that. A lot of people just want to sit back and relax and enjoy their game. If you have to spend potentially hours trying to get a game to run on your PC because of some weird bug with Windows, the game, driver, software, or hardware, it can be incredibly frustrating to do that. By the time you're finished trying to fix the problem, you may already be frustrated and not want to play the game anymore. There's nothing like waiting for Windows to finish its updates at the most inconvenient of times only to find that it causes problems with a program you use regularly.
      To be clear, I'm not saying that everyone is going to have problems playing PC games. But they are real potential issues that can arise with a PC that just don't exist with consoles. Just depends on what people are willing to tolerate. A gaming PC is still a computer that can still have the same issues a typical computer can have.

    The advantage that the console has on the PC at the same price point, is that the games on console are optimized for that specific hardware that never changes. On the other hand PC spec varies so much that the optimization for that particular PC is left to the user.

    • @DavidStruveDesigns
      @DavidStruveDesigns 5 місяців тому +2

      Yup, that's also why PC games take a good year or two longer to come out than the same game on console. It takes way more time to get the game working correctly, with good performance and looking good when you have to test for so many different combinations of specs. And yet people _still_ don't understand and think that game companies do it on purpose in order to "trick" people into buying multiple copies of each game. That's just a fortunate side effect for the game developer/studio rather than their main goal.

      If you have a specific piece of hardware, yes you can optimize for it. That just means that you preset everything to a degree where you have tested it works.

    Interesting and tough comparison. And now where I've seen XBOX for $350 and $250, PC is just different when it comes to price and or time invested concerning the lifespan of the device. Overall, it is hard to beat all that consoles offer without extra time, money or knowledge that is needed for PC gaming. Also, there is the needed subscription for online play on console, and of course the limits of other things that a PC can provide. That being said PC is a totally different beast.

    I’ve just switched to PC gaming, but I’m using it on the TV with a controller (and mini keyboard for opening up everything). I like to keep it as close to console gaming experience as I can, but I prefer the better graphics and frame rate. I would add that I don’t play competitive multiplayer games. Also games I’ve lost access to are still available on Steam etc which is a massive plus for me.
    I would say for casual gamers, just get a console but for hardcore gamers I’d say PC. If you’re in between take your pick, both have pro’s and cons.

    Do what you feel is most fun. Whether it be the Nintendo Switch or the top of the line PlayStation. If it's fun to you, that's what counts. Don't worry about impressing other people. Because that's expensive!
    I have an Xbox Series X. I have a PC with a rx6800 video card that I bought for $100 less than a brand new Xbox. And it hurt to spend that much. But virtual reality is demanding.
    The Xbox does great! Especially with a 55 inch OLED with HDMI 2.1.
    My PC is mostly used for VR. But Steam often has good sales. It eats everything I throw at it and smiles back.
    If you want to micromanage each setting, or want to bling it out with RGB a PC might be for you.
    If you like to turn on the TV and console and be ready to play in 30 seconds, a console maybe for you.
    But like I said at the top of this comment, do what makes you happy.

      @@JustMyFish he has a xbox and hasnt ever saw good graphics lol, these console gamers out here struggling with downscaled res in 1080p meanwhile im over here 200+ fps in warzone maxed out in 2k lmaoooooooo. The people who buy xboxs also buy those 4k tvs for their gaming when they literally output 1080p downscaled to 980p. btw in the pc world, 1080p has been dead since 2019, 50% of gamers are higher than that now id imagine. everyone i know is at least 1440p. ( if ur on a budget dont even compart ur console to a pc cause in some cases pcs have multiple parts that costs the same as a xbox and will outperform any xbox made in the next 15 years.

      @miuletzmitzu6641 6 місяців тому

      @@jiggerypokery2962 There's way more to this discussion than that. It all boils down to whether you have PC experience or not. For 400$ I can build a pc that's better in performance, can install the OS for free, and I just bought a xbox series controller for 30$. Monitors always come with a hdmi cable so you don't need to buy anything other than controller, keyboard, mouse and headset (and there's plenty of decent mouse, keyboard and headset kits for 20-30$). So you're looking at spending 450$ on something that performs better. But if you have no PC knowledge or don't want to work that much for it and just want to plug in the machine and play then the console is the winner. Both have pros and cons. There's also the game pass being cheaper on pc (For xbox you need to pay 17$ to play online, for pc it's 10$ and you get the exact same things as on xbox) so you're looking at 70$ extra dollars PER YEAR for a console, the ability to mod games, and the ability to get games for free (fuck the publishers that don't adjust game prices based on region, in what world is it accepable to sell a game for 70$ in a country where the minimum wage is less than 300$?)

    PC has no forced pay to play online. The the forced paywall is why I see most people move away from console. It does get expensive having to pay to play online every month. Over so many months of forced to pay to play online, you basically pay for a PC. I think Xbox and Playstation both charge around $10 a month so that's $120 a year, yes you can buy a yearly card for cheaper but either way you have to include the monthly charge to compare it to PC.

I've been playing videogames for 15 years now and watched a comparasion video, the difference was so small most of the time I couldn't see it until the zoomed in and pointed it out) and it being digital. The catch is microsoft and sony sell those consoles at a loss, what they're making money off is you buying games from them/game passes.
