    People are less likely to own a TV already these days though than they used to be so the price calculation for consoles favors them a lot less if you take that into account. Not to mention that console games tend to be more expensive than PC games, especially indie PC games now that triple A is more of a warning label than an indicator of quality.

        Those are individual games though, console games are just much more expensive on average. There isn’t as much available on the cheaper end of the market.
