I can't believe people in this thread actually seemed to think that these "new" consoles were actually doing 4k native gaming...

But then again these same people have not been and still aren't smart enough to understand that while they think they are getting a "great deal" on a console...they are really paying 100's for a closed box system filled with year or years old hardware...so of course they wouldn't know anything about native 4k gaming...

No one said anything about native 4k. We're saying the graphic fidelity and performance is approaching PC without the excessive costs

Negro you're trippng. You probably spent north of 5k and you probably spent hours fine tuning and updating the firm ware of the various components of your system to get it working. It's just way too time consuming. Hell, it's so much easier to plug in a console, let the auto updates do they thing, then commence gaming. With my Xbox S, i honestly feel the performance is on par with 90% of PC games. 4k has changed the game. Yes Console gaming will never represent the penultimate form of gaming, but it's damn close for a fraction of the cost.

Especially with all the headaches associated with PC gaming, namely technical, it's an obvious choice IMHO.
Well, I'll give you that. PC gaming is a fukking headache sometimes. I like tinkering around with shyt, but if that's not your thing, then PC gaming is gonna piss you off. Console gaming is easy as hell. I can see the benefit in that. But to say that consoles have surpassed PCs is crazy. That's never gonna happen.

And yeah I did spend over 5K for all my PC shyt (:hamster:)

Bu it's not approaching PC...because it can't even do native 4k...and if you really wanted to and had the pockets for it...you could go beyond 4k resolution on PC...

Don't even get me started on performance since virtually all console games have locked framerate, no graphical options for the games, etc...

Paying for a service yearly is wack as fukk but you do it for that shyt to crash every other week.
Xbox live offers amazing benefits. Far more than the cost of entry. Anyone complaining about the cost of Xbox Live is being rediculous at this point.

I mean, the Xbox UI has surpassed the cable companies at this point . With Xbox (or the Nvidia 4K player), cutting the cord had never been easier.

A true 4 k capable PC with monitor will cost over 2k. You can literally have a comparable setup with an Xbox One S and a cheap 45inch 4k TV for about $600. And the experience will be 90% comparable to the PC one at a fraction of the cost.


Xbox One S is for the people!
