PC. You can play games 20 years back without having to dust out an old PC. Unlike consoles. Bigger selection of games. PC is more than just a game system. The consoles today are just really dumbed down PC's.

@SW-User To be fair, Xbox One has a backwards compatibility service...with the newest console they say even classic Xbox games will be playable.

@Fangirlsarah1996 A service to where you need to pay extra, isn't that correct? I've never been a fan of having to purchase a service that should be free. Along with Xbox live, where you have to pay to connect to their servers.

@SW-User You don't have to pay extra for it...that is free.

And no, Xbox Live is free, Xbox Live Gold isn't free however...think of the standard version like a trial version.

@Fangirlsarah1996 I swore on E3 they talked about it being a service that you paid for. I guess they decided against that. It's nice that they are going that route. Although i've never been a fan of having to keep purchasing new consoles. It becomes more a hassle than anything. PC is for me. Way more customization, and I don't like switching from my PC to a console. I prefer an all in one system.

@SW-User See my problem isn't hardware expenses...it's that a lot of PC games tend to prefer making large amounts of "essential" DLC.

It's why I tend to be a little turned off by PC gaming.

That and a lot of the services are fairly unreliable...Origin keeps forcing you to make new passwords and Steam is very unstable (Crashes and such)

@Fangirlsarah1996 I 100% agree with the DLC issues that we have been dealing with this decade, it's become out of hand honestly, giving half assed games then adding into paid DLCs. I think the community is starting to riot against that. EA is starting to venture off from paid DLC, starting with Battlefront 2, which is a nice change and hopefully more companies follow that.

Crashes aren't just happening with PC's anymore. Now that these next gen consoles use the pc architecture they are getting crashes as well. That's just something you have to deal with. It's a learning experience. The PC community is pretty good at helping you fixing crashes you run into, that's not so much of a deterrent to me.

I don't like to use Origin either, i'm not sure anyone else does. I enjoy using Steam. But with EA they have their own launcher so it's kind of annoying.

@SW-User Yeah...EA are good eggs now, a weird world we live in eh?

No, I mean with the Steam launcher, sometimes it updates then...just doesn't, then it just gives me the silent treatment. Consoles don't get crashes as often (Unless it's due to a taxing game)

It's mostly why I only play EA games on console...Origin is annoying to deal with.

@Fangirlsarah1996 I hated EA ever since they stopped producing the Command and Conquer games 😡

@SW-User Yeah...those were damn fun...they may...what am I saying they will revisit them to renew the trademark.
