Nvidia: “the PC platform is far superior to any console”
It follows the UK and European PS4 launch.
Speaking with MCV, Wright said, “We are proposing small form-factor PCs to be a viable alternative to the next-gen consoles. Enthusiast players want the ultimate games system and that is the PC. The PC platform is far superior to any console when it comes to gaming, plus you get all the extra functionality that a computer brings.”
He added that from the outside looking in, PC gaming may appear more complex and technical to the layman, but stressed, “We want to make PC gaming as simple as possible and we think that it already becoming much more relevant and appealing to casual gamers,”
Steam also helps. “Steam now has more users than Xbox Live,” Wright concluded. “There is a whole new generation who grew up playing on PC with titles like Minecraft or World of Tanks. There’s a huge community who love playing their games on PC.”
What’s your take? Are PS4 and Xbox One already obsolete? Is PC the way forward? Let us know what you think below.

PC's are always going to be better then any consoles that comes out. But I do have a Xbox one ( I am a PC Gamer ) and I can say I am impressed on what they did with it and how it feels. Really quick, can Multi Task, very responsive, feels like a PC.

lFallout too much "pc IS better, but"Not by a long shot is PC better in every way...
no. Pc is definitely better in any scenario. All you gotta do is study for a couple weeks about building and you're set.

PC is better. But I like how I can play a $60 game on a Console that I paid $179, and to play the same game I would need a computer worth at least 500+

Well obviously computer gaming is more superior than xbox and playstation but maybe not everyone wants to have a $1000 computer and have a bunch of controls and computers are confusing

ORL_MAGICDa_Bomb Nobody argues that pcs are more powerful and better for games.
But you cant take your computer into the living room. Invite some friends over, order some pizza, and play all night long. This is what the pc doesnt have. Untill they can do this, there will always be a big place for consoles.
Actually thats not true at all. If my friends come over I unplug my pc, bring it to my living room and we play on the tv. Any newer tv past 2009 will have a way to hook up a pc to it. WE just plug it in, choose any game and go from there. So yes pc still wins in that department.
To add on to this there is Steam's Big picture mode that allows it to have a UI like a console with say and xbox controller

In my opinion, the only downside PC has over consoles is that you need to have some computer knowledge (As in being able to compare the abilities of different components, etc) before you can build one to play games, or over-spend on a pre-built gaming system (Such as Alienware, for example).
