I'm the exact opposite. I wonder why anyone would play on a console.

Computers are much more powerful, you can do more than 1 thing on them and have a lot of possibilities when it comes to gaming, moreso than a console imo.

Games are easier to mod which is a huge thing for me. Games that open themselves up to the motivated people of the internet to spend countless hours on user made mods or addons benefit greatly.

The controls on a computer are superior. Keyboard + Mouse will always be tops for fps as well as a plethora of other genres. The only games I feel benefit from a controller are fighting/racing/sports games and you can always purchase a controller.

I abhor the controller setup. I am way way more at home with a keyboard and mouse. That combined with the easy ability to mod your games are the two key selling features for me that outweigh anything that consoles have to offer.
