You're cool. Sorry I jumped on you like that.

It's okay. I know how easily it is for PC gamers to come off as extremely arrogant. It's really hard to avoid from the perspective of a PC gamer.

The thing PC gamers don't get is, just about anyone who is smart enough to play games already knows the advantages of PC gaming. It isn't some closely guarded secret they need to go out into the world and evangelize about. There are advantages and disadvantages to both PC and consoles, and from there it just has to do with personal factors.

I get the impression PC gamers genuinely think they are doing the world a great service by announcing how much better PC gaming is and how poor of an experience console gaming is.

I hear about the expense of a gaming PC far too often for that to be true. People getting excited about the Xbox One when the reality is for 500 dollars you could build a better PC and not have to pay 5 dollars a month. Literally the only relevant factor in the decision if you indeed realize the advantages of PC gaming is exclusives. Which admittedly, will probably get me to eventually get a WiiU and PS4. Obviously, this is from the perspective of someone interested in the next generation of gaming. For casual players interested in current, it might be cheaper to get a 360 than build a rig like mine, using a 9800 card or something. I don't know.

I play PC games, but I'd rather play a game designed to work on my system rather than trying to upgrade my system to play a game.

This definitely makes me happy about next gen consoles/PC. x86 architecture everywhere. Except WiiU. Porting should be easier, since it's all the same on the system level.
