Well, it is a gradient

Consoles are only a few rungs further down on the freedom ladder than a Windows PC. Both are somewhere near the bottom.

Wait, what's got more game availability than a Windows PC?

Answer: A Windows PC + all of the consoles + all of the handhelds + both major mobile device brands.

It just depends on how much you're willing to sell your soul... in order to amuse yourself.

I have a PS5, but Sony has begun releasing their most popular games on windows as well. I run it would be prudent to build a nice gaming PC, even if you shove it in a TV cabinet and connect a controller to it for couch gaming. If you’re patient like me, you not only get a better gaming experience, but a broader one.
