This is a really flawed chart.
For starters, you're not going to stick with the same rig for 8 years. At the same time, I don't think I could really recommend an AMD core at this time lol the rig they used as an example is a poor investment
It's also assuming console games never are on sale, which is ridiculous.
To go on from there, Playstation plus is actually cheaper than live but yet the chart fails to reflect that. I can walk into gamestop on Friday and buy a year long membership for 30 bux and realistically, this generation lasts 7 years tops. So in result, if we're going to assume deals, I could get the subscription service for $210 over the life of the PS4 which is less than half of what that chart reflects.
I think the costs are a lot closer than the chart implies and really it comes down to preference. I like the graphics and mods that come with PC games, but to be brutally honest, I've had a lot more fun playing console games for awhile now.
