Xbox, gaming pc or PS5?

I get something to play with but I don't know which is better. What would you do?

Objectively speaking, a gaming PC is best without discussion. However, this is also the most expensive and you should have a little idea what to buy.

A console is sufficient for the average gamer and is perfectly fine. Price / performance is not bad.

ALWAYS GAMING PC

Consoles can do relatively little and cost too much. In addition, you can't mod games and you always have to rely on the manufacturer's shop. With a PC you have so many possibilities… And you can still rebuild afterwards and don't have to buy a new console every 3 years

The people who vote for ps5 or xbox are definitely just fanboys. Do not rely on it

If you call console players fanboys, you're just talking nonsense, one console comes every 7! Years on the market, in that time you will have to upgrade your PC 2 times so that you can gamble properly, with a console you don't have to worry for 7 years, you will be able to gamble everything. Modding is anyway for people who can't do anything and the Playstationstore also has permanent offers, there are also many free games and you get 2 good games with a high value every month, gaming on mouse and keyboard is trash and a console is more fun, have both and would always prefer the console for gaming.

Have both and would always prefer the console for gaming, it's just more fun.

Have both a gaming PC and a PS4+ PS5, but almost exclusively use the console.

In any case, the hardware of a console is unrivaled in terms of price.

Basically always a gaming PC first. If, however, the main focus is on gaming and the hardware price plays a role (which I assume here), then you have a much better price / performance ratio with the consoles.

A few months ago I put together a new work and gaming PC, which then cost over 4,000 euro. That's eight times as expensive as a Series X or PS5 with a drive. I'm super satisfied with the PC performance, but the price is in no relation to the performance when you compare it with the new consoles.

As a console, I would (first) always use the XBox, especially BECAUSE I also play excessively on the PC and the XBox ecosystem works across systems between the two platforms. I can use the Gamepass Ultimate on both systems, can continue to use the same Save Games on the other platform, the entire XBox Online ecosystem / infrastructure simply works unrivaled, especially if you (like me) primarily play online games.

Just great in connection with the Gamepass, especially since the developer studios at Microsoft have grown to 23 and all the games that we will see in the coming months and years land in the Gamepass right on the first day of publication.

I'm very happy that MS made such a smooth transition from the XBox One to the Series S / X. I can just keep playing without having to worry about whether the XBox One games are running on the new console and in most cases they run nicer / better and / or load faster.

Despite the gaming PC and XBox, a PS5 will follow at some point, but interesting exclusive games will have to come onto the market and the console needs a revision (smaller, quieter, cooler, please). Of course, games are always a matter of taste. With the typical Sony "3rd Person Single Player Action Adventures" you can usually hunt me down. With Japano / Anime games anyway. But as I said: a matter of taste. One taste is not better than the other, but at best it is different.

So in short: Generally gaming PC is always a priority, but if you spend less than 1500 euro on a (self-made) PC, then you better delete the word "gaming". Then you are clearly below the new consoles in terms of performance. From 2000 + € it starts to get interesting.

So 1. 7! Are 5040 years… You don't live that long… Maybe you just don't have any mathematical knowledge…

What can 7 year old consoles do… 1080P at a maximum of 30 fps? Wow… And if you put together such a trash PC that you have to retrofit it every 2 years, then no one can help you either. That says, however, that you have no idea about it. Maybe you prefer to stay out of it when it comes to such topics.

And that you get things for free is also the case on the PC. EpicGames alone gives away so many high value games each month.

You can play on PC with a controller AND keyboard and even with a lot more FPS and significantly better graphics… I don't know what is more fun. But my PS4 is only standing around in the corner since I got my 2080Ti with Ryzen 9. The PS4 can't keep up with that

And regarding modding… It's not about cheating in games. It's about modded single or multiplayer. Let's take GTA as an example. If you don't feel like playing the 12 year olds in online mode, you can still go to the RP server or mod single player. This is not "for people who can do nothing". Just because you have no idea how a PC works, you don't have to hype a console that can't do anything

And even if I had a 3090 with a 3900X, gaming on the PC is no fun, but you seem to be trapped in your bubble anyway and declare any other opinion to be wrong.

No… It just doesn't make a difference in itself. If Pc and console would be equally well accepted. Then it makes no difference. You sit in front of a screen and play… With both. With a PC you have more power. So playing on the PC is more fun. You're just saying it's better, but you can't give a strong reason.

If you are not competent, you shouldn't say anything… Sorry, but you don't make any arguments… "Yes, that's fun" is not an argument

You think to me that my argument would be weak but you don't bring any 😂 it couldn't be more ridiculous, performance isn't everything and yes consoles are more fun for me, just accept that, but rather knocking silly sayings about ignorance, that's what is called a fanboy!

Let's compare our arguments… You: It's more fun… This is a personal, completely UNFOUNDED statement that says nothing…

Me: More performance, more comfort, more possibilities… Mhh, either you have difficulties understanding texts or you don't understand the topic… You are the fanboy without arguments… You seem like a 12 year old on the internet for the first time write your opinion… But an opinion should also be well founded… Fun is subjective and says little. It was about whether it makes sense to buy a gaming PC instead of a console and yes it does!
I personally enjoy the ps4 0, but I wouldn't post something so irrelevant and unfounded in an internet forum

More comfort 🤣 Yes, you have to sit at your desk in a really comfortable way. And more power is a weak argument, with a console you can play anything, with a PC you need certain hardware because you can forget about certain games. Not everyone can suck their fingers out of their hands for a 2K PC. So I don't see many good arguments 🤦♂️ So much for the reason Fanboy.

Just have a better experience with a pc that costs over 1.5k

You can put the PC in the same place as a console. And no, you don't have to spend 2k to get better performance than a console. 500 euro are enough and you have more options.

I'm sorry that you feel attacked. You have the free choice and of course you can play Fortnite with 30FPS. It is better like that. You have so little idea, it's better if you stay with the PS community, they are just like you.

Another one who has no idea. You don't have to spend 1.5k… That was the case a year ago. Not anymore. But the main thing is that you've said something…

I'm talking about a better experience than what you get on the Xbox, because you need more power and since the Xbox has about the power of an Rx 2080 / ti, you also need a 2080 / ti or better and a good PC with a 2080 or 2080 ti is currently difficult to get below 1.5 k because of the component scarcity. I have a very good idea of what I'm talking about

You're the one who has no idea, PC parts are currently very expensive for various reasons, for less than 1500-2000 euro you don't get the performance of the new consoles, and I don't play Fortnite and the consoles run at 60 FPS and more. And yes, the PS community is better, at least they don't feel like something better and know better than you that a console for pure gaming is better off.

Then show me your source who says that the gpu is as strong as a 2080ti. The latter is actually better on the internet

I said comparable. The Xbox is roughly between the 2080 and 2080 Ti. And if you want a PC that is a little better than the Xbox, you have to get one with an Rtx 2080 Ti or 3070 and this costs

I know that the components are in short supply… But the Ps5 aren't that common either. We also compare pure performance and the PS5 can hardly keep up

But it seems to me that you are not teachable… Keep buying your consoles and wasting your money. It's yours

The 2080 is from 2018 … You would have to compare it with the current generation and the xbox can't even keep up with the 3060

400 euro for a console with the performance of a 1500 euro PC… Yes, you're right, a real waste of money 🤦♂️

You pay all the more for software afterwards, which you don't need with a pc
No, normally a 1500 euro PC can do a lot more
And you always forget that you can upgrade and a PS can't

It's sad how little you check. It may be enough for one or the other… But in fact it is NOT. In ANY ASPECT, not even remotely superior to a PC! Please understand that

You're more than laughable, won't answer now either, my time is too good for that.
