    The part about the couch multiplayer really triggered me. You made a great point about emulators allowing you to play modes or games with couch multiplayer but literally every single sports, most of racing titles, fighting games and a couple of others can be played locally with friends. Recently RE5 on Steam had a update that removed any remaining files regarding Games for Windows Live and allowed local multiplayer for the first time. This article feels like it's been written 10 years ago, maybe back then I would've agreed that the consoles had a couple of pros over the PC given how dogshit Games for Windows Live was and the DRM's breaking your copies but even then, that's still a stretch.
    P.S Thank you for listening to my TED talk, I def need to shrink my comments to not make it a wall of text.

    Personal computers have ALWAYS had the option to connect to a TV (well, at least as far back as the 1980's). I've owned a couple of Apple ][e computers and was able to connect them to a TV (they had a composite video output). Generally; in the late 1990s and beyond (before HDMI), you could get a video card that had either composite video or S-video output. It's clear that the article writer has no clue whatsoever about the history of computers.

    My PC is located near my 4k TV and connected to it. I have this setup for 9 years. I've been "Couch PC gaming" with Steam Big Picture Mode all this time, using various controllers. I've been enjoying GTA5 4k at 60 fps with 2x980Ti SLI in 2014, when "glorious" console couch gaming stuggled to deliver 1080p at 30. Right now i'm having 120hz tv and appropriate rig to play Redfall at much more then 30fps, if i choose to. And then i could play some mario games at 4k with a DualSense controller, running it from a Big Picture mode, just as other concoles do. This PC is also connected to a monitor via long 5meter DisplayPort, so it also funcions as a workstation. Windows automatically detectes what screen is on. You don't really need to buy the second pc or sacrtifise one for another.
    PC gaming has it's quirks, but if they are trying to trash is as "not for couch gaming" - they should choose something else.

    People dont realize. When us PC gamers get unoptimized ports its STILL better than the console port. When we say unoptimized we mean its probably giving 130 fps in one area and then its drops down to 85 in another area. WHICH IS STILL BETTER THAN CONSOLE. And when its unoptimized how i just described we can just lock the fps to 80 or 60 and have a better experience. and its HILARIOUS when people think you have to upgrade parts to play new games... you dont.. just like bro said you cant play GTA 6 on a ps4 so whats the argument?? ill be able to play GTA 6 on a RTX 2070 super easily. Even though i have a RTX 4070 ti. PC community upgrades parts because we FEEL like it , or because we want to play at a higher resolution. no matter what console is at a customized graphics settings which is NOT ALL ULTRA and is also upscaled and THEN capped to 30 fps LMAOOO

    I run my computers for about 8-10 years. I never upgrade. I build a great machine for it's time, then I build a completely new machine once it's lagging behind. I then move the old machine into another role (work, entertainment center, audio hub, etc.). My current gaming machine (playing Helldivers II) is an AMD FX 9370 (Socket AM3+), 32GB DDR3 (don't want to get up to check speed), and a GTX 1080Ti (the GOAT) GPU, and it games just fine. Waiting for end-of-year hardware rollouts for my next build. Console peasants are really dumb, but will NEVER admit it.

    I am 100% sure a 2013 top spec PC can run 2020 games in 4k with FSR and a mix of low/medium graphics at 30fps. In 2013, the GTX titan got released for 1000$ and an I7 4770k for 300$. 16 gigs of ram was the norm and still is.
    The TITAN roughly = 970 = 1060 = RX6500XT. The 6500xt is only 10% faster and 10% at 30fps is only 3fps.
    The dude writing this article is a clown. Just because PC gamers are expecting way more than 30fps and complain everytime a game have deeps under 60 do not mean that an old PC can't run as good (as bad) as a console.

    How many of these points can be summed up as: "Console is better than PC because I have no idea what I am talking about" I have counted 10/10 so far
    6. is a shining example: "Games will not work on every PC" You can run new games even older hardware (if you are willing to suffer) and with a bit tinkering you can run older games almost no problem. With consoles you have to have a console and brand for each generation. "Game doesn't support your OS" ditto for consoles. "Ram is faulty" broken hardware is somehow a unique problem? Good luck fixing your PS5 if something breaks.

    I am the living proof that PC is better and much cheaper, I live in a 3rd WC and I could never afford console gaming, and the funny thing is I don't need to unless I want a lesser experience, Steam has amazing sales and regional prices, and hardware wise I build the equivalent of a us$400 PC in 2015, in 2017 I sold the first 3 components (+mobo)and for less than us$100 I jumped to a mid tier updated PC, 2 years later some friends gifted me an xbox one which I tried and felt disgusted so I sold it asap, with that money plus some system builds I did for my boss (so zero money out of my pocket) I, in 2019, built my dream top tier 2017 PC (i7-7700+GTX1080+16GB DDR4+1TB SSD+4TB HDD) that's literally what I'm running now in 2023, so what's that, 700 - 900 dollars on hardware from 2014 to today, that's 9 years of gaming better than any console ever could, and I'm rocking dual monitors, can't do that on console, switching from controller in Rocket League to kbm in Star Citizen in a blink, can't do that on console, alt-tabbing to chat, share, stream, research, while gaming, can't do that on console, trying emulation, "testing stuff free before I buy", running games around 85fps e.g. RDR2, can't do that on console, and paying much less for games even on release date, I also have games I like that aren't or aren't the same on console like Valheim, 7 days to die, Undisputed, Star Citizen, WoW Classic, private servers, I run my own modded servers on the same PC I play for Valheim and Conan Exiles, so many beautiful and wonderful options for such a little little price and no upgrades in 4 years!
