Or people are just comfortable with what they have and don't always want the latest, greatest thing that usually costs hundreds of even thousands of dollars these days. I'm perfectly comfortable just playing minecraft on my PC once in a while on my own on a ten year old system that I bought and built myself for about $500 and pay for a $20 game title.

I really don't care if someone tells me or shows me their $5,000 rig (that they'll upgrade in a year) that is streaming the latest multiplayer game they spend hundreds of dollars on every year to level up and hopefully become a world reknowned gamer online.
