It's a dumb point because there is no console that beats having a PC.

Are you seriously suggesting a handful of 40 hour single player experiences is worth sacrificing: full backwards compatability, emulation of all old consoles and games, Mods, games that can't be adapted to the limitations of consoles (grand strategy, certain MMO's), cheaper sales and key sites, as well as inevitably having access to the exclusives from all platforms

The only path for console developers to win over customers is through cheap hardware, which doesn't win over any PC users who have better rigs.

Your point is bad at making any real point. You basically just spoke around the topic then blamed everybody else for not understanding lmao.
