BridgeIsBlue 66,595 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 The ps4 was around £350 on release. You can build a computer with that, that wipes the floor with it. And that's just gaming performance. Now that's not strictly true is it...http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2015-budget-gaming-pc-guide"Well, if you really care about gaming, cheap gaming PC is a waste of money. I see folks have already explained why. If you want that sweet 50-60 fps experience, you either buy something expensive that'll run every game at high-to-ultra settings at full hd or 2k resolution for the next 5 years or you just buy a PS4. £300/$400 gaming PC is a myth. Usually it'll be totally obsolete in ~1 year, what is the point? If you cannot spend at least twice of that sum - then save money, believe me it is better than just throw away 400$ at a garbage PC."

BridgeIsBlue 66,595 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Because they don't know you can buy a better performing machine for the same money So you can buy a future proof PC for £300 that will achieve 60fps+ and reach 2K resolution?

ChesterPerry 472 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 "Fallout 4 is 1080p & 30fps on Xbox One and PS4. Resolution and FPS are not limited in any way on the PC." Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridgeIsBlue 66,595 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Can you buy a future proof console full stop?A console generation typically lasts 6-7 years,so yes in a way you can. If I went out and bought a PC let's say for £500 tomorrow,would it last me 7 years if I wanted the best possible experience as you've put it,or would I need to upgrade it?As for your 2nd point about the framerate and resolution being unlimited on PC,that obviously depends how much you've spent on it,you can't compare a high end gaming PC to a £300 PS4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,328 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 I know perfectly well how much a pc is superior to console gaming for graphics and stuff but personally I have always preffered consoles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you compare that with "best possible experience"?A £300 PC would outperform 30fps in Fallout 4 easily and with better looking graphics.PC offers more bang for buck, a fact which cannot be reasonably argued with.
