1. What lead you make the jump?
2. When did you switch?
3. What percentage of your gaming was done on pc versus console in 2025?
4. Will you buy the next Xbox and/or PS?

For me:
1. I wanted to play game at 4k/60

2. I made the jump in 2019

3. I’d say it was 95% pc in 25, will likely be 99% this year.

4. More than likely no, as all the Xbox games come day 1 to pc, and I’m cool with waiting 1-2 years for Sony titles to drop on pc.

Wanted better graphics/framerates for major games.

2. When did you switch?
I wouldn't say "switch" but I got more serious with it around 2012 so near the end of the PS3 gen but a year before PS4.

3. What percentage of your gaming was done on pc versus console in 2025?
Off the top it felt like I played on PC a bit more due to playing most multiplats there but still had a good chunk on PS5.

4. Will you buy the next Xbox and/or PS?
Depends on what games are day 1 only for PS. Would need to be something only for PS6 without any PC release mere months away.

Have pretty much always had both.

Kinda created my own generations. I upgrade either console or PC whenever price vs performance of either makes sense for me.

I still prefer to play on console(and play mostly there), but i play PC for “exclusives” and games that just don’t perform well on console.

The next xbox looks to be best of both worlds so im definitely buying that when it comes out :blessed:

1a. Mods. I wanted more freedom in how I play my games.
1b. Graphical fidelity. I wanted my games to look the best as possible with the highest frames as possible.

2. I switched back in early 2018 I think. It's hard to remember now. Haven't looked back since.

3. 100 pecent on PC. I don't buy consoles anymore.

4. No.

1. Started losing interest in gaming, which lead to not buying the latest consoles.
2. 2020-2021.
3. 100%
4. Not likely.

The only reason I didn't give up on gaming completely was because of ARPGs. And the best place/way to play those are on PC. The few games I would be interested in on consoles release on PC too, so it was easy to justify.

1. Always was my goal growing up the in 90s. PC gaming back then was a high end higher middle class hobby i come from the slums couldnt do it then. I always had pc parts etc.. overrall just better than console in my honest opinion.

Better resolutions better FPS better screen output. I had homies with 2 monitors ultra wide all types of shyt.

2. I been playing on PC since Battlefield 3 full time but use to play NBA Live and First Sims n Sim City 3000. So the 90s on a cheap PC.

3. 95 percent. Only games were probably NCAA Football

4. If the next Microsoft is PC Hybrid i might buy it just because
