10 Reasons You're A Fool Not To Game On PC

PS who and Xbox what?

It's a long time since PCs were unsightly beige boxes that sat dejectedly in dark studies or basements; lost amidst piles of paperwork, old books and moulding coffee mugs. But for some reason, the average console gamer still perceives them that way. Whenever a debate about the merits of PC and console gaming, we always hear uneducated statements like 'it's hard to hook gamepads up to a PC' or 'you can't play PC games on a big TV'. But thanks to the efforts of companies like Microsoft and Valve, the PC is forcing its way into the space previously reserved exclusively for games consoles. In addition, the rise of streaming devices for the PC has opened up a world of possibilities for PC gamers, combating the myth that consoles offer a more comfortable or accessible gaming experience. You no longer need to download dodgy programs to get a gamepad working on your PC, or cram four rigs into one room to play with your mates. The PC can do anything a console do and better, and the world needs to know! So suspend your skepticism, o' naive console gamers, and behold how a PC can have all the perks of a games console, but with more power, more choice, and a hell of a lot more modding.
