In the end its just old games in a higher resolution, at a premium price.
I'm aware the average steam user has a shitbox, are you aware how many poor fucks use steam? Their averages are not representative. The global average income is something like 10k/yearly, do you live off 800$ a month?
As for your argument about people not wanting to fuck with PC's, I understand there are a lot of stupid people, I just don't use them as an example.
When it comes to playing games in 4k the PC will always be superior. When it comes to improving old games through new tech, the PC is also superior since you can screw around with the ini and mods and whatnot.
Consoles are simply not winning the GFX battle, ever. I'll buy a console based on exclusive games, portability, but sure as heck not because I expect it to outperform a PC.
That is a terrible argument to make pro-console.
If (when) the X fails they'll continue to design games for their best selling platform, so you'll end up with games designed for a years-old console, with some small gfx tweaks.
