Ok so as per the title this is my first post and I'm looking for some opinions/advice.
I've been a console gamer for many years and to be honest have been fairly happy with it but have always had a soft spot for the idea of a gaming PC. What I'm wondering is if this is the right decision for me.
So why the change? Well firstly theres none of this 'backwards compatibility' rubbish from what I've seen whereas some titles I'd have liked to have replayed from PS3 etc can't be replayed on PS4. I've noticed that graphics comparisons can vary between PC vs other platforms but PC games always come up trumps even if it's just minor details (I accept this is dependant on configurations etc).
This all came about simply from some online videos of GTA V and various mods that have been done (LSPDFR caught my attention) and had me thinking how good it's be to do/have some of these things (though I know modding isn't allowed on various titles?)
So, I'd mainly be looking at FPS, action/adventure and the odd RPG most likely. Wha I'm essentially asking is, would it be worth me investing in a gaming PC (i'd be keeping the PS4 purely for a few games I play online with friends) and if so could anyone kindly assist with some basics in terms of a reasonable configuration (in terms of price (in the UK) and decent performance)? I know this could be a daft question but help would be appreciated. id considered something like this: http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/computing/desktop-pcs/desktop-pcs/cyberpower-gaming-empire-elite-ii-gaming-pc-10140548-pdt.html, though I'd need to sort out a WiFi card:
Currently own a mac (using it as a glorified internet browser essentially!) and know this is neither use nor ornament generally for gaming!
Apologies for the questions, but my mind is battling with for/against and finding a reasonable setup!
Cheers
Dave
