I'll stick to my PC gaming because the graphics are 10x better and games are way more enjoyable, with the exception that they don't make some games for PC. I also refuse to buy BF4 because of the past issues I've noticed with DICE.

So for me in 2014, I'll be purchasing Titanfall when it comes out. I play Day Z, well I was but I stopped because none of my friends were playing it. Though hopefully once Day Z standalone comes out I'll have some friends playing it so I can actually enjoy playing it then.

Funny fact, my video card cost more than an xbox one or ps4, possibly both combined, lol.
It really depends on perspective, I guess. On one hand, it IS a little ridiculous to buy the console, game, pay for internet, AND have to pay to play online. On the other hand, taking into consideration the amount of money spent on individual computer components can look pretty outrageous as well. Then consider that the average consumer can't tell the difference between a $1k video card and the generic Nvidia card that came installed. It's a matter of what works for you. The fee for Xbox Live is no big deal to me, mainly because I use my Xbox for everything entertainment related. Movies, music, games... I actually spend more time using for movies than games. It seems a little more social to me as well. With a console, you can put 4 people in front of the tv to play. You can do that with a PC also, it's just not as simple, and the screen tends to be a lot smaller.

Still, I can think of about 6004 things my PC will do that my Xbox won't. It's always good to have options, though.
