It's been stated in a previous comic that PC (post #3792218) doesn't bother with the console wars, she is not a console. She only gets involved when the consoles get too rowdy.

I could see PC as the mother of the consoles, as she would have predated them, and its through her that their games are made. XD

Wouldn't consoles have predated her by a good decade though? Don't forget about atari/coleco and how PCs were not gaming powerhouses until much, much later.

As Saladofstones said, while computer games have existed since the 50s, personal computers aren't powerful enough to run them. Nor was PC popular and affortable at the time either.

I'm not sure if you guys are just trolling, or just not comprehending what I wrote, but I'll play along.
No one said anything about computers from the 1950s, unless your arguing that xbox and PlayStation has been around since 1950 something, I said their games are designed on a PC, and they like could have been by this point, especially since by now no one really differienates between a PC and a Computer and the terms are used interchangeably. Now I did say that PC predates "THEM", as in Xbox and Playstation, which it certainly did, and therefore is older than they are and could very well be the mother of the Xbox and PlayStation.
And if you're trying to argue the semantics of "PC Personal Computer," as oppose to Computers, I'll have to ask you to **** off, my point is that computers are used to create games, trying to be Grammar Nazi's gets you nothing but donuts as in 0's as it gets you nothing.
Because "personal computer" has a specific definition, semantics is important here. All PC are computers, but not all computers are PCs. The fact that from the same Wikipedia page you lifter that paragraph did not mentioned "personal computer" until much later and uses the more general term "computer" should be a clear indication of that.
"Personal computer (PC), a digital computer designed for use by only one person at a time." - Britannica
"A personal computer is a general-purpose, cost-effective computer that is designed to be used by a single end-user." - techopedia
Everything else you said is correct. Your usage of "PC" confused us.
Edit: and of course you edited out the part I'm quoting... And once again, no they aren't designed on a PC because machine classified as "PC" doesn't even exist back then.
Now I did say that PC predates "THEM", as in Xbox and Playstation, which it certainly did, and therefore is older than they are and could very well be the mother of the Xbox and PlayStation.
I hope Sony fans will let the Playstation die instead of trying to salvage a product Sony themselves have no interest in. Please, save your money, don't feed the monster.

Frankly, I think that's bullshit. She should be constantly getting into fights with them, obsessively putting them down, and eternally tooting her own horn about how she's infinitely superior to them.
