Well as long as you are upgrading your pc, It won't get obsolete. PC can play both older and newer games as long as it had the most modern specs. Consoles gets obsolete after 6 years. I do have consoles because of the exclusives but PC is the ultimate when it comes to backwards compatibility. Ps4 will be obsolete in 2021.

Console.

Mainly because my laptop is pretty old-ish so it no longer sustains most games...
But If I'd have a gaming PC it would be more used

Some years ago I would say console... but nowadays I say all (including tablets and android smartphones).
Recently I bought a new computer and now I have the possibility to play new games. However I still have my consoles and I love to play with them :)
So it's very hard to choose only one platform... ;)

Computer games. I like computer games because they cover large variety from arcade, shooting, simulation, racing. PC games also have more controls that make everything easily covered in one click. The only downside is that PC games require high processing speed computers to run smoothly. They hang a lot due to other background processes. Console games are also expensive.

Computer games since I can use Computer for many other stuff and console can't. I would like to have console but I don't have money for both.

I prefer to play games using a computer instead of a console because I was never good enough with the console controls. Besides like people mentioned before console games are expensive and with a computer you can play free games and do a bunch of stuff you can not do with a console.

Unlike the consoles, there is no set standard for PC. Each individual computer is comprised of a number of components that affect its price and performance: the processor, the graphics card, the motherboard, the RAM memory, the SSD, the HDD and the power supply that keeps it all running.

You cannot upgrade consoles and they are obsolete after 5 years. PC's just needed a minor upgrade every 5 years and it will be able to handle new generation games.

I prefer PC gaming. It's the way I started and got used to playing, so it's more comfortable for me.

It's better computer because with your gaming rig you can play most of the games. And most of the consoles or platform can play on computer or has PC counterpart.

We never bought a Console so far for playing games. My son used to use Computer to play the Video games. He is having many games down loaded in his PC. I never played any video game on any console so far! Thanks!

I do love both consoles and PC but PC can handle both new games and old games. Consoles needed to have their backwards compatibility to be activated so they can run old games.

I just play games on my iPad and iPhone. I don’t have a console at home and I don’t like installing games on my computer.

I don't play games much.. I haven't even played games on consoles so can't comment of this thing.. But yes, I have played games on computer and loved it. So people like me who don't play games regularly then they should use computer because their is no need to buy a separate thing to play games.. If someone plays much then they can consider buying a console because playing games much on a computer can harm the device.

Since I have never used consoles to play games, I don't know how console experience differs from PC experience. I enjoy playing on PC and hand held sets. Having said that I am also interested in playing on console. I think I will get an xbox. There are no particular reasons for choosing xbox.
