Console versus PC?

[JennyorAlice]

Do you prefer to play video games on a console or do you play on a computer? If you prefer consoles, which is your favorite?

Have been a PC player for over a decade but, there on occasions in which I do want to pick up one of the newer consoles. I do have an old Wii that gets used briefly once or twice a year though.

I've always been a console gamer. My first console was the NES and I got hooked on playing Mario games. I've playing video games on Nintendo consoles ever since.

I prefer playing video games on a console because it feels more comfortable and immersive. My favorite is the PlayStation because of its great game selection and exclusive titles.

The PS5 gives me exclusive game access but I enjoy PC gaming since it offers diverse customizations and many additional gaming choices. Gaming on PC gives precision control which enhances my gaming experience beyond what I get with console.

I have a PS4 but everything else I have is a Nintendo console of some kind.

I only got the PS4 because I wanted to be able to play Hogwarts Legacy when it came out. Originally it wasn't set to come out for the Switch so I got a PS4 so that I'd have a way to play that game upon release.

Console all the way for me. I find console gaming totally appealing because of its straightforward plug-and-play functionality. Among all consoles, I like the Nintendo Switch more.

I have a gaming rig but these days I find myself playing my Xbox Series S more than anything. I've always been more of a console gamer, but pc gaming is fine too! PC gaming does have an advantage, mods.

I don't think I've ever tried gaming on a computer. I've always used my computer for other things.

Besides, the games that I've played have always come out on just a console of some kind (until recently).

PC gaming is my jam! The customized features are one of the reasons why I enjoy PC gaming. Consoles are more convenient but I still value the advantages of PC gaming

With a PC, you can upgrade it to make it better so that your gaming experience could be better. You don't have that option with a console. You'd just have to wait for the next console to come out.

This is very true as eventually a console will become obsolete within 2 or 3 generations. You could eventually offload it to a store that deals in older game consoles.

I've done that before. I have a Nintendo 3DS and I've gotten rid of my GameBoy's since I don't play them anymore. They were all still in good working order.
