Treqqul PS4 FTW! Graphics are better!


If you're looking for graphics i don't see why you own a console in general.. a PC would be the much smarter option in that case.


I couldn't agree more with you, PC will always be better for a lot of things, especially graphics since you can keep upgrading them.

I'll always be a console player though, I just like the feel of it more and plus I enjoy using a controller.
