PC is  a great platform, although they're usually not meant for gaming and can only do so much, however, unlike console there is much more online compatibility, and you don't need to get a thousad dollar TV to go with it.

With consoles, however, graphics can be much better without introducing lag, and most games have easier/better gameplay when using a controller, especially shooting games. Also comes the fact that you don't have to be at a desk to play.

The PC is the strongest gaming machine,it offer best experiences,but you need to update the system for new games,and a better online,the PC exclusives are the best.
console does not require udaing and have controller gameplay wich is more comfortable,I have both a PC and Xbox 360.

PC, console gaming is way too easy. Play an FPS on console, then on your computer. It's way different and more challenging. I don't want to play something extremely easy. and consoles use aim assist sooooo, that just proves those scrubs can't aim. PC > Console, just my opinion.

PC can get better graphics, sound, and games with mods use the PC to use those mods. PC is also much friendlier to people like Toby, PewDiePie, and Robbaz, as stuff can be recorded much easier on a PC. (PewDiePie is a word but Robbaz isn't?!)

It all depends on what game you're playing. The majority of games are better on PC, if you have a good enough PC that is. However, i always found that action games work so much better on a console. Many people argue that PC games aren't better because they don't like using a mouse and keyboard and to anyone with that arguement, have you not just bought a gaming pad to plug in...?

I would say PC, because games are relatively cheaper and better on the computer

You realize your controller will work just fine on a PC, right? You just plug it into your USB port. Nearly every game comes with support for them, too.

@Drink
Not enough PC exclusives? Man, you haven't been looking at the indie games, have you? By now, a lot of indie games are actually better than AAA games.

@No one in particular
Frankly, a PC can do everything a console can and more. Does it have Uncharted or inFAMOUS? No, but it has so many more games on it that it's easy to forget about them (though I actually ended up getting a PS3 just for PS3 exclusives). Aside from the AAA titles, you have indie titles, you have your flash games, and, of course, you can have tons of non-gaming applications that help define the PC.

Are PCs more expensive? People seem to think so, but they aren't thinking it through very well. Initially, yes, a PC costs more. But eventually, the costs of having a console catch up with you, as console games rarely go on sale and drop in price than often than PC games do. Do  you guys know why Microsoft is making Windows 8 a piece of gaming-hating crap for PC people? So more people will buy the consoles. Microsoft would get nearly all of the money from the sales of the consoles themselves, as well as making tons more money on the more expensive software that comes out on consoles. Consoles are, more than anything else, part of a bait & hook business model.
