Perhaps being part of a community is disagreeing when others say things but still generally enjoying having similar interests and topics of discussion!
The PC vs. Console debate is silly. The amount of effort is still a barrier. If there are more than two or three questions a consumer must ask before buying a product, that's too big of a barrier.
-I want to play this game!
"Okay do you own a Xbox One or PS4?"
-No
"Okay, well here's a list of games for each platform, if you've enjoyed more on one list, you should get that one."
-Okay thanks.
Meanwhile in PC land, I've built my own desktop PCs for the past 20 years, and I honestly couldn't tell you if I should upgrade my processor or graphics card first.
All that being said. That's not who Giant Bomb is speaking to. Giant Bomb is speaking to informed video game consumers. From an informed consumer perspective PC is the correct reccomendation. It's cheaper, better supported, and generally speaking more capable in every way.
The challenge with "judging" E3 is that it speaks to the general public and the enthusiast media. It's not for either side exclusively. So you hear about the exciting new physical shaders or whatever stupid technology crap they are talking about this year, you hear about boring games that look like an art exhibit come to life with absolutely no excitement. And then you see incredibly cinematic trailers from the FOURTH Batman game because only sequels sell. And awesome power fantasies from Call of Duty FIFTEEN because this industry is artistically bankrupt!
