The Top 5 Reasons To Switch to PC Gaming
Here are the top 5 reasons I believe you should be switching to PC Gaming. The reasons in order of least importance to most importance!
#5) Cheaper
When you go out and buy a PC to use for gaming you are really taking out two birds with one stone. In todays world a PC is almost a mandatory thing. When you buy a PC for gaming and general use you are actually saving yourself a few dollars, heres why. In order to build a gaming PC the only thing you really need extra is a video card. Most computers built today have plenty of RAM and plenty of processing power. A good video card that will last you a few years is probably going to cost you around $150. You do not necessarily need a real fancy video card though because PC games have a wide range of available Screen Resolutions and video card settings. Game consoles are expensive and paying an extra $150 to your PC or paying $400 for a console should be a no brainer, you save $250.
#4) Computers Longevity
Computers last forever, most PC's last for about 5-10 years and if you buy a good video card you probably will not have to buy a new one for at least 4 years. New game consoles are released about every 3-5 years and so you can assume to keep up with the industry you will be buying a new card to support new graphics every 4 years. Figuring that your computer has a PCI Express 16x slot that should be good for at least the next 10 years and in which case you can update your card every time you need to till then.
#3) The PC Has a Huge Games Library
The Pc has a load of games and most of these games are games you will find on other systems. A lot of times if a game is good on a console it goes to the PC eventually anyways. You see a lot of games on PC that you cannot find on consoles, the civilizations and the Starcrafts of the world. There is something for everyone on PC and most of these games are flexible enough to work with most graphics cards.
#2) Online Play
The PC has such good online play. It is not just for individual games either, most games you play that have online capability have a really good online service. Not only do you get the excellant online service you also have modified levels and items that you cannot get on a console. You do not have to pay for this excellant service where as on xbox live you will pay, but PSN and Nintendo's online service are also free.
#1) Modifications
The great thing about PC games is that they're incredibly easy to mod. Mods to games makes them a lot better. You never run out of content and there are mods for every game! These mods can be used online or for personal use. If you do not like the way something works, you just change it. Mods make everything more fun, but you cannot get these as easily on your console due to how hard it is to change and program for. The Modifications to all the PC games makes them my #1 reason to switch to PC gaming.
