PlayStation 4 hits 20.2 million units sold worldwide (high sodium content warning)

I love my PC, really I do, but having a small child, i'm finding myself playing it very, very little these days compared to my ps4.

I live being able to easily keep one eye on the kid, and the other on my TV, playing with headphones on (but often with one ear uncovered).

As for why it's selling? I don't think many people guy a console for one game, you buy it for a library. And so far, most of the games have looked or played better on ps4 versus the xbox, while the wii U just can't seem to find traction despite some wonderful software.

You can hook a PC up to an HDMI port on your TV.
Don't want a PC in your living room? Wireless HDMI. Or just use a drill, old-school.
But not wanting to deal with PCs at all? Yeah, I could understand that.

Damn, some people have really thin (paper thin) skin. Don't understand the responses to that image, shit happens all over the world every day. I laughed, anyway.

Just as I laughed at Yudoken's great, ironic as hell post.

I love how people buy a console for just one game and refuse to build a pc for hundreds of fantastic exclusives where everyone finds something for their taste.
Bloodborne looks like one of the first really good outstanding games for the PS4 and the only valid purchase reason for a PS4 but it's just one game...
All other exclusive are A. multiform games (no question, even cheap pc's do a better job than any console) B. time exclusive (a bit later in a better and cheaper and often more version on pc) or C. just "ok" games for an unreasonable price.

Stop being fanboys and open your eyes, being loyal to a brand without comparing with other products is just stupid.
If there is something way better, offers overall a better way to play everything than play there and currently it's almost always the pc version (sometimes, like in SF IV, they fuck up something like online and won't fix it, it's still playable but there way less players too choose from than on 360).
I know a few crazy JRPG fans (mainly Souls and Persona) than I get it why they bought a console but they did that because they did not have a other choice, everything else they play on their pc.
Console is like fast food, cheaply made and doesn't need much effort and can get you fed up but taking some time preparing your own meal is just generally better.
Nobody bats an eye if you play on consoles but if you talk literally trash without any facts or evidence it helps no one.

I know, but my PC is hooked to my multi monitor setup desk I use to do work on. I also generally play kb+m games on it, which aren't too couch friendly.

It's faster, and easier to just use my ps4.

A history of showing disinterest for consoles, and believes their games are "overpriced" and "underwhelming". It's serious. That bit about the fast food as a console was also added in an edit, so he actually thought that was a smart thing to add to the original post.

People need to just enjoy what they enjoy playing on instead of trying to convince the world it's the best thing ever. Everyone is different, accept that, and enjoy your decision. There is no need to tell people their gaming decisions are awful, it helps nothing and makes the person making those claims look childish.

Probably like the person earlier who listed their CPU, GPU and RAM as a complete system, ignoring all other costs associated with finishing the build.

No they aren't, it's not a big secret world of pc. I've played many games, quality games on great rigs. Now I work with pc all day. I never liked Kb/m, I don't want to see another windows update, driver update, virus software, etc when I play games ever. I want plug and play forever. I want gran turismo, god of war, mgs, ff, uc, tlou, and all the other games I grew up with.
The only games I like on pc are rts and a wing commander with a flightstick.

It's funny because it flips the console peasants imagery over into a pc peasant as it were, and is a depiction of a beggar, port begging. But I'm sure you figured all that out, just because it's a shocking image doesn't change anything. It could be an adult begging or a crackhead, it's all sad but some comedy is meant to shock. See also Dave Chappelle.

I gotta be honest, I didnt see that. Now i see nothing but that. As a parent I cant stand it but once i remove that line of thought I can see what you mean.

Thanks!
 
Funny how many of you guys love to share your memes.
Tried somebody to show me some good reasons why to prefer console?
Keep being awesome guys, and don't forget to save money for more remasters and 70$ games which are as about interactive and fun as a dvd menu.
And instead lowering settings to medium on a very cheap pc to play it on 1080p/30fps why not go 900p/24fps on low settings without anastrophic filter/anti aliasing and expensive hardware you have to buy and os software which is useless besides a bit of gaming and streaming Netflix and Youtube.
And don't forget to Morpheus too, the true successor of Kinect for Playstation.
Can't wait for it, VR is truly going to be great on PS!

You really want to get banned, I assume? Good luck, you will probably succeed.

Btw: I prefer PS4 because of the (exclusive) games, trophies and controller input. Even though I have a "good" rig (GTX 760/i5@3,80Ghz) and almost 100 quality titles on steam - which I mainly use for DayZ. Plus I don't have to deal with uPlay or Origin on PS4.

Well, beggars in China are a much more complex situation than a single photo can show. Many are forced or encouraged to do this, accept only money (not food), and pay their 'superiors'. They'll even get in the way of you walking or scream at you for not giving. It's pretty intense.
