    Some people don’t have the knowledge or confidence to build a PC or go through the process of installing everything to run games like a pro PC gamer, and for them, the do-it-for-me approach of console gaming is the best route. With the upcoming generation of iPad kids, I feel like console gaming is going to be bigger than ever.

    Disclaimer: I’m a PC gamer almost exclusively.

      Thats a valid take. The prebuilt market for gaming PCs is getting better but they’re still kind of a bespoke product.

      Getting games to run smoothly on PC hasn’t really been an issue for a while though. You can tweak things in the settings to eek out some extra performance, but most games are playable right from install with default settings.
