my issues with PCs are

A) I already have two iMacs and a Macbook in the house

B) The five years I had a PC (granted, a Gateway PC with Windows ME and later XP installed) were a nightmare of bugs and sluggishness and unattractive UI I eventually just modded to copy OS X

C) A friend of mine has Far Cry 4 and ran into an issue where if he played with a gamepad the scripting would constantly crash and lock him in a Jeep at the start of the tutorial that he couldn't get out of or be killed in. He was told to either alt+tab for 5-10 minutes or play with a mouse and keyboard for the first hour and a half then he could use his 360 controller. Random shit like that is just way more frequent/possible with a PC where the hardware is variable and I don't want to deal with it.


I do get jealous when I see stuff like all the mods for GTA IV or how different something like Far Cry 3 runs on PC vs. console, but I also take comfort in knowing any game that comes out for the next ten years will work as well as it possibly could on my PS4 without any monkeying around or extra spending on parts from me.
