Where's the bluray drive and the 8GB RAM?
This is pretty silly given how the PS4 is mass produced. Obviously its going to be cheaper than a PC.
Equivalent PC would probably be around R10 000. You'd need a much better CPU. Plus you'd need at least an 7850.
On top of all that games run better on console because they are designed for console. Far less overhead. Hopefully Mantle will help PC users with that. I'm seriously considering getting a console. I'm finding PC gaming less and less worth it.
Making a game for a console is easier than for a PC. Hence why console games are so well optimised when they launch, (Special case is Battlefield 4, that has been a nightmare across every platform).
I am considering a console aswell, but I won't part take in the circle jerk that both console and PC gamers are taking part in, what happened to just playing games?
...and that is why I shall have both, for now.
Because Microsoft didn't, and still doesn't, care about PC gaming. They only care so far as Windows', DirectX's and Intel's dominance is concerned.
They let down almost every single gamer using the Windows Live client for PC's (it was shoddy), they're switching off those servers entirely in 2015 (because they willingly let the service stagnate) and their store has no way for Steam, Origin and uPlay to have their clients on the Windows 8.1 OS - instead they're going to bombard you with a thousand $2.99 games that can be bought on a whim on the Microsoft store. They haven't cared since the desktop market started to shrink because consoles and casual gamers are more lucrative.
