I spend enough time on the computer (whether it's for my job, checking emails, surfing the internet), it's much harder to relax and enjoy a game for a few hours. To be perfectly honest, playing video games on the PC (a lot of the time) feels like work.
It is, especially if you want to instal modes, use a controller or have to optimize and download crap just to get the bloody thing to run. Gone are the days when you could just throw a disc in the PC and play it. Yeah sure the graphics are better for AAA games if you want to run out and drop a 1000$ but I'm just not having fun with PCs like I used to. Also lmao at all the hermits butt hurt just becuse someone prefers console gaming.
Optimization and controller 3rd party installation takes 3minutes. Installing a game on xbox one takes 30+ minutes. Facts > Shielder.
Both my psn/xbl updates or game patches also take considerably longer.
PC is easier atm, until they work out these console kinks.
games don't download any faster on my PC but they sure do install faster. But also I've never had an update I've seen on my X1 yet. they download and install while i'm at work sleeping etc when its off. When i turn it on, its always ready to go. For PC i have to turn it on wait for start up, then start up steam/origin etc. wait for that program to update then go to the game and download more updates there. PC gaming might give better graphics, but in no way is it more convenient to me and i imagine most people, then console gaming.
if xbox one is doing something it cannot be 'off', it must be in a low power state - sorry, i'm sure this is what you mean, but i just want to clarify. and, well, sure pc gaming can be that inconvenient if you choose it to be that inconvenient. allow me to demonstrate.

i've never seen an update on steam, they download and install while I'm at work, sleeping etc - my pc is on all the time for file sharing anyway. when i wiggle the mouse - all my pc games are ready to go. if for some reason i ever restart my pc, it automatically logs on, and starts steam / origin etc - i've configured it that way deliberately.
whereas with my xbox 360, the last time i turned it on it required a system update, and gears of war 2 required a software update. everyone waiting2horde.

so, would you be willing to agree that these days - all platforms can achieve similar convenience?
