There is nothing you can do on any standalone console that you cannot do better on a high-spec PC. Period.

That, alone, makes it the Master Race.

That is not to say it is my preferred platform. But, when it comes to universality, power, customization, and the ability to play literally anything you want, give me a spec'ed out PC any day over anything else.

If I had to choose one to carry me through a zombie apocalypse, it would be PC.

Maybe they mean steam deck or something?
Some just say there isn't a "best of the best" gaming platform, which makes the discussion at best hilariously punny but might escalate in fanboy-tribism. In any case, I don't think anyone is going to consider this debate ended 11 months from now.


For me, it's an easy answer: PC. It was a bit more clunky before the steam deck, and said device since then fixed it. It plays everything I want, as well as some stuff I don't (wheee! Tons of emulators let me play games I DON'T FREAKING CARE ABOUT IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! :D ).

My rather surprising runner-up is android, actually. My tablet has a larger screen yet is less bulky, which means I often play some sudoku's on the train when not steam decking it up.

Try telling that to pc players
PC gamers mostly like Valve, not Microsoft. Though we do like that Microsoft puts all their games on Steam, of course. They can't all be bangers, but their record hasn't been bad lately by any stretch. Psychonauts 2, Grounded, Hi-Fi Rush among the notables.

Nintendo's gonna lawsuit the f out of you after you said that (unless you both a switch and TLOZTOTK)
They'll obviously never do that. You're just jealous that you don't have a good PC to run BOTW and TOTK.

No, srsly i understand oldies but if ur pirating stuff that is still being sold u better be getting a lawyer
:lol: Over $60? Nobody goes after pirates, not even Nintendo. They go after leakers and uploaders, when they can.
Besides, you're on a piracy forum buddy. They haven't gone after anyone else here. Except Kongsnutz but he leaked a game and posted his receipt in a thread as proof. Not the best move.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea ps3 is a beast still to today compared to most "sticks"
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you just want pi for emulation no point when Anbernic releases new shit every two seconds

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.
    +1
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage tots tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
