I'm literally doing this as we speak. Other than Sony exclusives, everything here on out will be on PC.
For me at least, 2010 would have been a bad time to drop consoles.This threads around 8 years late to the party, ~2010 was the ideal time to drop consoles.
This post has quite a few inaccuracies:This threads around 8 years late to the party, ~2010 was the ideal time to drop consoles. You had PS360 now 5 years old running most games at Sub-HD 576p soup, no new consoles even in the rumor mill, while a $199 GTX460 was around a 5x+ faster generally spitting out 1080p/60 on nearly everything. In the current landscape not even a $750+ 1080Ti is going to no sweat 4K/60, while you can find an Xbone X for ~$400 that will do 4K/30 fine in general. The mid-gen refreshes definitely bridging the gap this time around for people who don't want 5 year old hardware, not really a huge reason to switch the PC IMO.
I switched back over to PC gaming back in 2010 and never looked back, only getting a Switch for its exclusives and for portable Bayonetta.
This post has quite a few inaccuracies:
-Where the hell are you getting an One X for $400? It's closer to $500 wherever I look.
-That 1080ti is still going to demolish anything the One X is going to do, especially if you have an even remotely modern CPU to pair it with.
-You can get a 1060 6 gig that's on par with a Xbone X's GPU for ~$275, and if you have a decent CPU will perform better.
I just sold my Xbox X with the intention on buying a pc to play my Xbox games on and then some. But looks like to get something that can dp 4k/60fps consistently I'm gonna need at least $1,300 which is a little high.
