I bought the OG Xbox and haven’t looked back, despite having PCs powerful enough to run AAA games over the years. I just prefer console gaming and don’t want to deal with the baggage of a PC.
you realize you can use pc from a couch too right? That’s what I do fr fr, have it connected to my desk and my tv so I just switch inputs and I’m off to the races
It’s really not objectively worlds easier though. With a smart setup, it’s a difference of literally 1-2 taps on my phone screen and then I put my phone down beside me and grab my wireless controller and the rest of the experience is identical, only it has all the benefits of a PC (unlimited fps, zero ads, no reliance on subscription services, streaming services, etc). For 90% of end users yeah it’s easier because they think you have to sit at a desk with a wired mouse and keyboard to interface with desktop PC hardware, but that’s a plebian problem tbh.

Comfort of my couch + TV on my Series X far outweighs whatever improvements sitting at a desk provides.
Xbox comes with comfort, and to me that is priceless

I sit down, push one button on my Xbox controller to turn it on and another once more to play a game.
It is just a world easier to play a game on a console than it is on a PC. I’m sure we can be objective about this.
