The advantages i see in PC gaming are more lengthy than consoles.
Mods
Graphical superiority
Much more enjoyable PC exclusives that are too demanding for consoles
Steam and its insane sales
Less annoying, foul-mouth, incredibly rude and ignorant, screaming little brats
Graphic card upgrades are cheaper then buying a new console, because graphics is often the only thing people need to upgrade as often ( if you have a good quad core and some RAM and a nice cooling system.)
Im seeing many more freebie DLCs or added maps/content for PC game console ports nowadays, with CODWAW, BFBC2, Left For Dead 2 ect.
The ability to easily multitask.
The ability to not have to use discs every time you want to play (for most games at least)
the cons are short
High initial cost.
More Upkeep
More expensive parts that could break or die
some OS annoyances.
Viruses.
The cons are pretty easy to avoid. keep a couple programs like malwarebytes, avast, auslogics defrag, Ccleaner and your computer shouldnt have much problem with program upkeep. And the initial cost is worth it.
