    Life/support expectancy between console and PC, PC wins hands down. Consoles release the next $500+ish version every 8ish years where a PC can pretty easily outlive at least 2 generations of console with minor upkeep and maybe some minor upgrades that cost less then the shitty controllers you have to replace every 6-12 months for $50 - $80

      And they can get ‘downgraded’ into other purposes, such as a childs first PC (take that mf’r apart and make them build it again), or a home server, or a media console.
