What's better than?
Alot of fighting games have cross play on there though.
As someone who plays Tekken 8 and constantly switches between the PC version and PS5, yes, crossplay is there, but some players simply turn it off immediately. And on PC, especially if you're at a high rank, you'll usually be fighting the same four or five players, and on the worst days, there are times when the search matches give you same person two or three times in a row.
Do you think consoles will catch up in these areas? Or will they be forever PC dominated?
Interesting I play Tekken 8 too on PC and I have no issues playing against other players especially on other platforms. However I'm not at a high rank though.
Rise, yes, especially since consoles and PC are increasingly becoming more alike. But catch up? I doubt it. Consoles are increasingly irrelevant due to phones anyway.
And we all "love" them for this, especially the 3-bar LAWs.

It's a great game, but it's best not to mention it in the context of Fighting games, as there's always a risk of sparking a conflict between fans of Fighting games and Smash.

It's a long history of confrontation between the two camps. Nintendo itself doesn't want to classify it as an esports fighting discipline, considering it a family game. Throughout its existence in the esports arena, Nintendo has done everything possible to suppress this scene.
"Notoriously bad PC ports" usually still run circles around their console counterparts.
Do you consider costs? Because if so ram prices have changed the choice to PS5 over the past 2 weeks but perhaps they will back off eventually. Currently 64gb of GDDR5 is more expensive than a PS5 some have reported.
Because there is little hope of these prices going back down, the smart move is subsidized fixed priced hardware if you are buying new today. Otherwise you may spend several hundred dollars more for ram than you did 2 months or even 2 weeks ago. The next steam machine looks great guys but it has worse graphics than PS5 and will cost 800 to 1000 dollars.
AMD and I'm sure Nvidia will raise prices again and PC gaming will become even more niche and difficult to enter for the average normie. If price is no factor, I'm sure there are supercomputers at Nvidia that could be overclocked and cooled under LN to get the best performance but you asked what you asked. Edit: I added this article which proves me right.
An entire PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory, even after a discount — simple memory kit jumps to $600 due to DRAM shortage, and it's expected to get worse into 2026
You can spend $50 more to get an entire PS5 Pro.www.tomshardware.com
true, but sometimes there is fan patch or mod that makes everything better
No offense and I didn't mean to hijack your post. I read the title which asked if PC gaming was the best platform for eastern gaming. Of course without considering the price it is. As for games, I would say yes too, it is also the best platform due to the large number of exclusive games.
