Gaming prices Memes

PC gamers will drop $3,000 on a custom RGB water-cooled rig with more fans than a Taylor Swift concert, but the moment Sony mentions a PS5 price tag, they suddenly become budget-conscious minimalists. Then Sony comes in with the most hilariously desperate pitch: "But we have Wolverine for only $70!" Because nothing says "compelling value proposition" like a single game that costs more than three months of Xbox Game Pass. The PC gamer's reaction progression from dismissive to shocked to uncontrollable laughter is basically the entire console vs. PC debate in four frames. The best part? That $70 game will probably be on Steam a year later during a sale for $15, and PC gamers know it. Patience is a virtue when you've got a Steam library of 500+ games you haven't touched yet.

Console gamers are getting absolutely destroyed right now. Xbox raising prices, $80 games becoming the norm, and Nintendo charging $499 for a Mario Kart bundle? Meanwhile, the PC gaming prophet descends from the heavens with his divine message: "Don't worry and come to PC, you can trust me." Sure, you'll need to sell a kidney for a graphics card, but at least you won't be paying $70 for a game that goes on sale for $12 three months later on Steam. The PC Master Race welcomes another batch of console refugees with open, angelic wings.
