PC Gaming is better then Console Gaming.

I will first rebut my opponent's arguments and then proceed to my argument. Point #1 A PC makes it quite efficient for users to quickly switch parts and increase specs. However, whats the point of buying a machine, if it won't run the games you want to play? Most people have a set budget of less than a thousand dollars, and if you have a quick look around a video game shop, most parts that will run GTA5 in smooth, 60FPS will set you back 200 dollars for each individual piece of hardware. A console already has pre-decided specs, and the developers know what to aim for, when developing the game. A console will run any console games comfortably. Point #2 Since my opponent has not specified which mods he or she is discussing, I will talk about the Singleplayer mods. Many mods on PCs create a nice, new experience with each one you download. But, these mods are mostly for Singleplayer gameplay. Most people purchase console games to play with other people. Nobody buys Call of Duty for the singleplayer, story mode. They all purchase to play with other people, therefore eliminating the need for mods in the first place, because mods are implemented to try and spice up the boring Singleplayer world. Why would console need mods for Singleplayer when nobody plays the games for them? Also, I will talk about the YouTube videos and Twitch streams in a later argument down below. Point #3 Yes, many people agree that CS:GO requires a higher level of knowledge and skill than CoD does. But, has one thought of this? Many people play video games to sit down and have some time after school or work to cool off and have the rest of their day to themselves. Not many have the time or dedication to learn the intricate maps of CS:GO, with its smoke timings, pop-flashes and the recoil patterns of all the different weapons. Games by definition on dictionary. com are "an amusement or pastime", and consoles fit the description perfectly. Point #4 Steam is a great platform to play a multitude of different video games. They have great sales and it does have a chatting service. However, I believe that just because there is a great platform to play video games on the computer does not mean that PCs outperform consoles. Consoles themselves have chatting services and interactions with friends. For example, take the Xbox. The Xbox has a service called 'Xbox live', which enables to do everything that steam can do on the console. As my opponent mentioned, on Steam, you can interact with friends and chat with them. Not only can you do the same thing on Xbox live, but there are streaming services such as ESPN and Netflix(You have to pay for the Netflix account seperately) that you can use. You can also watch Twitch and YouTube through their apps. Now for my argument: When people think of the differences between consoles and PCs and the pros and cons of each machine, they often talk about the specs, the graphics, the number of games. However, there is one crucial part that people are missing out on; it is the fact that video games are for people to enjoy. PCs are almost always only for one person to play, hence creating a 'One person One machine' rule. However, consoles are different. Consoles are much more oriented towards group enjoyment and fun. When you want to play the same game with a mate or two, on PCs each person must own a computer for everyone to have fun. However, on consoles such as the PS3, certain games allow you to play with up to SEVEN other players, hence making it easier for people to play together, only requiring an extra controller for another person to join in. Not only this, but many computer games nowadays require you to have a good, high end PC to run the program smoothly. If you do not, you must either get a new computer or buy new parts. Each method may cost well up to a thousand dollars, which puts a strain on most wallets. However, once you buy a console, you never need to get new parts for it, simply because video game developers know which specifications they need to meet for their games, because they know everyone owns the same machine. The only money you ever need once you buy a console is for new games, and once in a while, a new version of the console. Good luck to my opponent. I had to rewrite this because it got deleted once :(
