    Great video mate. Maybe you should have talk more about couch play, playing older games in high resolution and high framerates (ps2,ps3 gen...), game ownership etc.

      @Brandon_Brown I feel like the graphics drop at 120hz was really noticeable on MW2 on console so I can see why that one would tempt you over.

      Now you can just upgrade your parts when you need if a ps5 pro launches get a $300 gpu like a 7600 xt thats better then a few year later upgrade your other parts.
      thats how i keep it cheap.

    The utility of gaming on PC is it's non-specialised nature if you configure it to an acceptable budget as you've pointed out. I've known console owners who rely on laptops over desktop machines so the affordability of them is a factor - anyway a great balanced video that seems well informed from an experienced long term user of all platforms.

    • @arcadespawn

    Hey man great video! I’ve made my decision bc I want to play with a ps4 controller but I don’t wanna stay on ps4 console and don’t like ps5 so this made the decision a lot easier to get a pc. Is £600 good price for a pc and if so what specs should I get?

    • @arcadespawn
      @arcadespawn  Месяц назад

      Thank you!! I think the main things to consider are what game(s) do you want to play on it, and what resolution? Then look at some benchmarks for those games. £600 might be a challenge though!

    • @mikerochburns4104
      @mikerochburns4104 Месяц назад

      £600 for a pre-built is low, you'll get a potato and regret spending the money.
      £600 on the 2nd hand market *could get you a decent entry 1080p machine, but It takes time, and you'll have to build it yourself.

    i want to get a PC but my budget is extremely tight and with my future plans (i’m currently a HS senior and i’m either going to college or moving in with my dad to work with him and do college online) idk how much time i’ll have to game, so sticking with my console might seem better to just hop on and play hassle free.
    plus i don’t really have to worry about the online fee, for one most online games i play are free anyway so they have their own servers. for two my friend is game sharing his ps plus with me so i can access all of that stuff for free. thanks dominic 🙏

    Im switching to pc. I actually think console gaming is better all said because of games being optimized. I’ve played on pc before and am going back. However, even if my over all gaming experience is lower, for me all my games being in one library is just a must. So I’m now sticking with steam or nothing else. I just can’t take switching platforms completely every time I game it never feels like my “spot” anymore.

    Pc gaming is cheaper then console now you can build a pretty decent pc for $600-$700 and no online fee imagine $700 ps5 pro + 1 year of ps+ $120 basic sub fee for a year is $820(doesnt include a stand,another controller and more storage since its all digital).
    pc gaming is a hell of a lot cheaper now thanks to the ps5 pro🤣
