PC of course, has all the advantages.
-you can connect a tv and a pad to it if you like console style
-you can play strategies with your mouse and keyboard
-allows for multi screen setup, eyefinity
-if it starts to become slow just buy a new GPU and you're set
-you can run all kinds of old games and emulators

PC is the way to go. It has better graphics and more powerful plus it gives you the option to custom built your own machine.  Grin

and you could just buy gamepads if want to try the console experience.  Cheesy

PC without doubt, find it much easier using a keyboard/mouse than a controller.

Oldschool console wise I like the original NES and Atari Jaguar  Grin

PC.  My last console was an Atari 2600 that I still own.

Sadly some of the newest PCs games by the big publishers are not as good as Pac-man, Combat, or even Pong.

I still really don't understand the reason for PS4 and Xbox One existing at this stage. Ok the Wii I kind of understand because they go in a very different route with that platform and they kind of revolutionized the whole moving around interacting with the game concept. That godfather game for Wii (The Black Hand I think it was called?) was pretty sweet, you could bitch slap people by flicking the remote.

But back on topic, what the hell does PS3/4 or Xbox 360/One have over a PC? It's like the same shit but with worse controls. Let's get real here.

It's all about games (exclusives) and marketing. And to be honest consoles are a bit easier for casual gamers.

That's circular though - publishers wouldn't make agreements to produce exclusive titles if gamers didn't support unnecessary consoles. The real question is, why are gamers still buying Xboxes and Playstations when they can have a better gaming experience on a computer? If they didn't buy the consoles and sales dropped, the game companies would go full PC mode in a heartbeat.

My favorite current-gen console is the Wii U, because I've always loved Nintendo Smiley. Since i was a kid I've played Nintendo games, from Kirby to Mario. And i think it's the best current-gen console because it has backwards capability.
It has backward compatibility with like what? Wii? You can't play games made on Nintendo 64 with it. On PC you can play games which are like 20 years old or older even.

PC is the ultimate gaming console of all time. Just dont be deceived by marketing nonsense. It is better choice for advanced users and easy to setup for beginners.
A PC is not a console. A computer isn't the same as a console. Here are some articles:

Gaming console - A video game console is a device that outputs a video signal to display a video game. The term "video game console" is used to distinguish a machine designed for consumers to use for playing video games on a separate television in contrast to arcade machines, handheld game consoles, or home ...

I know that PC is not just console. It is something much more and capable of doing things that consoles can not do. Open architecture of PC is key to be a better utility overall, PC is able to do stuff consoles can not.
PC is not a console and yet we are comparing gaming capabilities of these devices. That is why in my opinion PC gaming is better than consoles gaming. Making it a better 'console'.

Prefer PC gaming but have an Xbox 360 that I'm favoring right now.

I like the idea of making my own games, but I'm terribly bad at coding.

I spent my entire life till last year playing on PC , but had no choice but to switch to console because of the again and again buying new parts changing parts  so i switched to console because its easy all you had to do is just put the dvd and play nothing else ,, so its easy with console

Many games on consoles require to install games on hard drives to reduce loading times. Also pc games are often cheaper than the console ones. And the independent games are a lot easier to make for pc so there are a lots of them.

The other thing is, some games (especially 2D ones) used to be fun to play with a console controller. But nowadays, they have this crazy shit with like 2 joysticks and it's basically trying to emulate a computer, it makes no damn sense why not just use a computer? I especially don't understand the FPS games... dude how can you possibly be happier fucking around with those two fucking joysticks over using a mouse and keyboard for FPS? Huh

For current generations - PC, hands down. The whole console race has just gotten silly. I remember a time when consoles offered a different experience than PC gaming, and competing consoles were very different. Nowadays they just keep making the consoles more and more like PCs so what is the point?

The N64 was my all-time favorite console.

PC wins by default.
It will be a while before I can buy a new generation console.

This. PC wins. Any close architecture platform is no good. Open structure of PC gives it clearly the top position in food chain.

I personally go for PC, even though the Wii U does bring back good old memories. However, Steam sales and such always beat my wallet, which would end up being even worse than if I had either an Xbox One or a PS4. I would definitely buy a PS4 over an Xbox One if I were forced to, though. Share your opinions.

EDIT: If you vote for Xbox One, I really do want to hear your opinion.
