By now any gamer has heard about the console wars. Gamers from Playstation compete with gamers from X-Box for which is better. Not only have gamers been involved, but Microsoft and Sony have continued their rivalry since the first consoles. The main topic for the fighting is the graphic quality. Sony users say that they have the best graphics and Microsoft users say they have the best graphics. No one takes into consideration that they are all just playing games.
The PC gamers have always tried to stay away from the console wars. Playstation and XBox users want to prove that they are the best of the best by constantly trying to get to the top of the leaderboards, but PC gamers do not have this problem. While the consoles fight each other, PC gamers have more gamers that they can play and stay away from the fighting. With software like Steam the PC gamers can get new games easier than consoles and will avoid all the fighting. Sony and Microsoft fight not only about the leaderboards, but also the consoles. When a new XBox or Playstation comes out, the other company has to be better than it and will try, but the PC gamers do not have to worry about this. The PC gamers can upgrade their computers if they want, but they do not need to and can avoid waiting in line for a new console to come out.
Gamers are some of the most competitive people on the planet. They just want to be seen as the best at what they do, and what they do is the same as millions of people. As competitive as they are they don’t compete with each other. X-Box stays playing with X-Box while Playstation plays with Playstation. As soon as cross platform gaming becomes a normal thing, the console wars will get even worse with whoever can be the best on both. While this is going on, PC gamers stay back and game in silence. Steam has made a huge appearance for PC gamers so they don’t have to buy disks like the console gamers. The same games come out for PC as consoles, and PC has proved to have better graphics than both consoles. Because of this, console gamers have backed off on fighting with PC gamers because they can’t compete with a computer’s graphic card. Overall I would say that the console wars will not come to an end until their is only one console left, and that doesn’t like it will be anytime soon.
