There are no console alternatives for the top tier strategy games. There's really no reason to play a WRPG on a console. Single player shooters are better and there's a plethora of reasons why competitive games of all genres are best on PC. Games are unfathomably cheap.

That's about it, though.

Obviously consoles have a ton of advantages that pwn PCs as well. From someone who's always spent a ton of time on both sides of the fence, I'll let you in on a little secret: Steam really isn't the Gaming Promised Land PC gamers say it is. Did you know there's no way to increase font size in Steam? Or in Valve games like Dota 2? And we're running these things on high resolution monitors, considering we're PC gamers to begin with. Valve exhibits just as much face-palming stupidity as the rest of them, we're just more tight-lipped about it because of how comparatively tiny the Steam community is.

There's nothing like playing a game with a controller on your couch. Mouse and keyboard doesn't work there, I've tried. Sure, you can plug in a controller, not all games support them. Some of the ones that do only support a certain kind (XInput). And have fun editing the .ini config file from your couch when you can't get the right resolution to work on your favorite older game.

PC gaming has a lot of perks. It also has a lot of headaches. Oh, and no Valkyria Chronicles
