But if you have a big backlog of old games you still like to play, take advantage of pc sales (being a smart shopper, buy game keys from other storefronts, don’t need every need game you want at or near launch), like to mod, and need a computer that is powerful for other reasons already then there’s a reduction of cost with all of that plus additional benefits for continuing to play on PC as you upgrade.
