I built my PC back in 06, it would run it (AC), but not the way I would want. I just purchased a bunch of Fanatec stuff so there is no PS4 in the near future. I took a quick look yesterday and if I was to build a PC today I'm @ around $1,200.
I really liked the simplicity of a console, no hours and hours of firmware updates, driver updates, system optimisations, problems because of some simple setting somewhere. Oh well, I guess I will see if I get a tax refund this year and go from there.
I guess I should also ask about the hackers in AC? I just remember the old PC days and getting fed up with with wallhax, aimbots and other assorted bull shit.
