be it one being casual and the other being uber hardcore on gaming news

some say pc gamers are elitists who put more importance on building hyper computers than actually playing games and talking about new technology than new game releases

I guess I would consider myself a console gamer. But I do play a bunch of games on PC.

but it's not uncommon to find people who think pc gamers are just stuck up tech guru's that babble about specs and all the gears running inside their machine

More about those sweet lighting effects for me.

But seriously, PC gamers are like normal gamers but want more control/performance.

PC gamers tend to be richer because a good gaming PC costs more than a console, and usually when people buy a gaming PC they're not looking to get something inferior to a console in power.

So they also tend to be able to afford more gaming accessories.

It's a market specifically targeted in the most popular eSports which are all PC games, for this reason.

Expensive monitors, good headsets, gaming chairs, graphics cards which cost more than a while console, these are things advertised during PC eSports tournaments because a market exists for them on PC.

Attitude wise people citing "PC Master race" is just to troll people who can't afford a gaming PC.

Pc exclusives tend to be more complex than console games. You know it's a good game when it requires every key, control key, alt key, and shift key on the keyboard and a full gaming mouse.

Probably not, because he won't answer it.

I'm not sure that there's any truth to that stereotype, between the fact that there are budget options for gaming PCs and it really comes down to how people choose to spend their money.

tbh, it does explain a lot. But now I almost kinda feel bad for the guy given how he turned out.

Also it's worth noting that while it *may* cost more to build a gaming PC (although you can also do it cheaper, apparently), you actually save money on software half the time given that PC gaming is rife with piracy and things like Steam sell shit crazy cheap. As such, PC gaming might be *cheaper* than console gaming in the long run.

Maybe in the long run. But you would have to have enough to buy the parts to build one(or enough to buy a good pre-built one) first...

Also, Steam does sell games pretty cheap. But isn't it usually only after a little while...

Not to mention it saves in the fact that console systems tend to have signifigantly shorter life spans. With a quality PC, it can last well past a decade and still play the most current games with as little as a mere software updates.

I'm still regetting the fact I picked up Reaper of Souls for PS3, I ain't dumping 400+ dollars just to keep my loot and achievements and solely unlock a Necromancer!
