Welcome back to our rebooted Xperience podcast, or as we’re calling it, Xperience rebooted. For those unfamiliar with the show, this is the sister podcast to the SonyCentric, where we talk all things Xbox – The original Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One and even Windows 10. We got you covered for all things Xbox!
It’s a new year and with that comes a new Xperience Podcast. This time we’re tackling an issue that seems to be commonplace on the internet; mainly that PC gamers hate consoles and want consoles to die. In addition, the PC platform doesn’t have any exclusive games. As gamers who enjoy all platforms, we wanted to try and dispell this myth. We also break down the differences between the original Steam Machines and what they have evolved into, as well trying to start the initiative on smashing the PC vs Console gamers barrier. Finally, is PC gaming dying? Well, according to the numbers, PC gaming brought in 35.8 billion dollars in 2016. Does that sound like it’s dying?
