I'm a console gamer because of the controls.
I know you can connect a controller to a PC but I don't want to waste hundreds of dollars on a computer that requires multiple stuff to be bought (e.g Mice, keyboard, headphones, speaker, monitor etc)

But consoles in my opinion are better because you can buy a console for 199$ and then all you do is get a HDMI cable that increases resolution from mid to ultra and FPS. It only costs 19.99$
What about you?

even then consoles don't produce true HD, just upscaled 720p. no idea where you got the idea that it increases framerate.

I love the implication that a console doesnt need a TV whereas you would have to buy a monitor for PC

You can buy a good gaming PC with only about the same price as a console.

Some video cards have HDMI outlets so you can do the Steam big picture thing on a TV, with a PC controller.

I prefer PC because well, it's just better. Can't really explain why.

@Real-
console gamers are figuratively blind already by picking consoles, so it doesn't matter if they can't see the game

PC mainly now. I'm a little bit on a smaller budget, so if I can upgrade parts a little cheap, I can get games REALLY cheap.

I play my pc mainly for good rts games or star wars games that cannot be played on console.
But I like bigger screens and playing with my friends so I'd say console gamer.

250 fps, csgo, kb/m, community, dedicated servers, cheap games, and indie games.
About the controller, if you want to look like a five year old aiming with his elbows, stick to your dualshock controller

I'm a console and PC gamer.

Mostly a PC gamer though. I only go on consoles when my friend is on, that's all.

HDMI cable+HDTV+PC = big screen game on PC

i'm a console gamer because when i was little i said "mommy i want an xbox!! my friends have one too!!!" but i was taken care of so i got age-appropriate games (unlike the worldwide famous call of duty).

at the time i didn't know much about game consoles and had no knowledge about gaming pcs but it was my choice

you don't have a monitor?

also, why headphones? it's as required as headphones on a console

On the other hand, I'm left-handed.

"Some video cards have HDMI outlets"

do you mean all video cards over $50?
displayport is there since it's small and it can be converted to vga/dvi (most come with converters)

On the other hand, I'm left-handed.

try using your tv with your pc

my monitor isn't being stupid and i bought it 6 years ago, but it doesn't have any automatic brightness settings (try disabling them, and posting the monitor and model number)

it shows less colors now and looks a bit weird

On the other hand, I'm left-handed.
