Many members of the gaming community often wonder if console gaming or computer gaming is better. Though after looking into it, the better platform is obviously console gaming. Both platforms have a good amount of success, but consoles are coming out on top.

First off, consoles have a better online play setup because of their vast variety of online games whereas the computer platform has mainly just MMORPG’s (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games.)

On top of that, systems take up considerably less space with less wire usage and a smaller frame than that of computers. Computers require multiple cords such as a power cord, Ethernet cable, and cords for the keyboard, mouse and monitor.

Internet connection and updates are also problems with computers. occasionally computer gaming requires an update in order to even be able to access the games that are in the computer, and when that isn't a problem the game that the user wishes to play needs to update before it can be played. Almost all console games can be played offline without having to update, or play them offline while the game updates in the background. Overall console gaming is better.

I for one would never choose PC over console because console is simply better in every aspect. Console is better gaming, higher quality and more easily adaptable.
