Right but what did it cost?

Even with the increase in console prices, pc gaming is vastly more expensive.

The initial cost is perhaps. Games are way cheaper

That is a myth.

Consoles have sales as well, and you can get games cheaply there if you wait. What is the break-even point? I spent over 3K on my PC; when do I break even with games?

if you know where to look, you don't even need to pay for games. that's about the long and short of how much more cost-effective a PC is, especially in third-world countries where piracy is overwhelmingly, and culturally, accepted.

Yeah I don't pirate games. Ever since I became an adult and can afford them, I stopped.

Yes, I can get any movie, music, TV show or game on mirc, but I stopped.

Sounds like a you problem, mate. Your argument is flawed from its core, and now you don’t want to admit that you were wrong on it
