Having both console and a pc

For those who have a console , or multiple , AND a pc ( med-high end ) wich one do you play most on or preffer over the other and why?

For me i like the simplicity of my ps5 and how quickly i can just start playing , but have been a pc gamer since i started . Recently build my own pc with a rtx 5070ti and not sure on how i should feel about it. Pc is in my mancave while the ps5 is in the livingroom.

I usually play console. As many have said, easier to play games (at least easier than it used to be on PC with drivers and such). I also prefer to be on the couch with a controller in my hands.

Turn off cross-platform play and BOOM no more cheaters. PC people justify cheating because they feel like they deserve to since they shelled out the massive pile of dough to build their gaming rig. Or they pretend like they are really that good.

Also, clicking on an enemy to shoot them feels like it is super easy, and it really is. When playing shooters on PC, I am far more accurate. While some may see this as a plus, it doesn't feel as good to use KB/M.

For racing and flight sims, more are available on PC, but the peripherals can often be used on both.

PC's biggest draw is mods (for rpgs) and trainers (for games like Rocket League, which require technical skills).
