When all is said and done the old saying still applies: you get what you pay for. Consoles can be very nice but by their very nature do have limitations. On the other hand computers serve their purpose by being flexible but do not enjoy some of the specializations and cost savings consoles have.
Perhaps the solution is to buy both a console and an inexpensive laptop instead of a single computer that does both. Unless you need a decent graphics computer like I do in which case the PC isnt going to be inexpensive. But really its not a choice between a PC and a console. Having a PC is a necessity and priority but playing games is not. The question is whether or not the rest of the cost for gaming goes to a console or PC upgrades.
