  There’s not really anything that makes using your PC in the same way inconvenient, you can connect it to your TV and wirelessly connect controllers, even more conveniently. Although switching between games or using different apps while doing so means you’d have to have a m&kb beside you I think, so if you’re playing with friends it might be less convenient.

  I’m sure you could burn a digital game onto a CD/DVD, although I’m not sure there’s any benefit to doing that compared to just storing it on an HDD or SSD…

  That’s not how game development using an engine works… RAGE likely compiles code for at minimum a majority of modern hardware running Windows & MacOS with next to no tweaking, and likely Xbox & PlayStation consoles with very minimal changes.

  Most game engines used on large projects generally are made to handle as much of a variety of hardware as possible with little to no changes in the code – if you make a game using Unreal Engine or Unity for example it will almost certainly be able to work on Xbox, Playstation, and most PCs just fine. It’s likely the same with RAGE.

  Because a PC can do everything a console can do, but way better, plus way more, lol

  Consoles are completely redundant, you can get a better performing PC for the same price or get a PC with equivalent specs for a lower price

  Consoles are just shit value, you can’t use them for anything other than what, gaming and TV? And their specs are worth less than just buying similar parts separately and putting them together. So why would I spend up to $500 on a shitty console just to play a new game because of artificial exclusives that will come to PC anyways?

  The first time I went to Atlanta as a kid I saw someone get shot while I was in a hotel room looking out the window
