No, but I can be shallow enough to say that one of the factors that I didn't chose the Xbox One over the PS4 for my first Next-Gen console to buy was the design of the thing. (The Xbox One looks awful.) That being said, it was only one variable. The other two were the PS4 exclusives and that I was growing tired of Xbox as I had mostly been using my Xbox 360 the past years.
The xbox one looks like a VCR.
I mean, I am sure that it is a good console.. But the design.. It could have seen better days.

It's not the best of consoles, it's almost if as Microsoft made it into a media center.

That was their entire goal, right? While it is still a powerful system, its focus on media must certainly have taken a toll on its gaming side.

Not sure honestly. I mean, it can't even be considered a gaming console. I mean, the original purpose of a game console was to be able to play games on it. Yet, you can watch tv on your fucking Xbox One. A gaming console is for playing games, and other things related to games. Not for watching tv.

Or though i have all 3 and even the old gen PS3/360 and a shitty WII that i don't use, It's safe to say that PC is hands down the best the amount of power you can get from PC is just insane so far consoles can't and in my opinion will never stand a chance beating PC.

The goal of a console isn't an all around platform though, hence it is not the same category as a PC. If you are to compare them to each other, then you would need to compare only, and nothing else but the gaming properties of a PC. Okay, so a PC can have somewhat better graphics, though a console is more social in the terms of actually being able to sit down in a couch and play split-screen with friends. A console has different exclusives, elements like that difference them. Saying that a PC is a better gaming platform because you can use Microsoft Office on it kind-of proves that the PC is lacking as the "PC Master Race" fails to come up with little things other than that it is a better all-around platform.

"somewhat better graphics" No the graphic difference can be hugely increased and has been shown/proven several times. You pretty much just said that consoles are better on the social side of things because you can play split screen and sit on a couch with friends. The social side on PC gaming is huge you don't need to play split screen or go over to someones house just play a game with them you can be in the comfort of your own home and play with your own stats/skill etc instead of console making your screen split and shared stats. Monitors also have a much faster response times then TV's i have found. This thread will be all based on personal experience and preference hence the poll so no point starting an argument about how PC isn't as good as console etc.

Play Station, just each one of their upgrades have actually been good, like xBox is alright, it just isn't as good.

I would have voted for PS and PC but i started with PS all of them so i need to stay true to the old days.

You are making this too easy on me. The graphical difference highly depends on the game that is being played. For example, a PS4 exclusive has far better graphics than a PS4 game that is cross-platform. The reason for this is simple, the game was optimized for the PS4. This is also the reason why PC see somewhat better graphics and somewhat better performance, as a great deal of games are optimized properly for PC. There are, however games that prove the opposite. Games that are next to un-playable on PC because they lack this optimization. (Arkham Knight and Dark Souls being two very nice examples). As for Monitors, there are several Ms' difference in different screens. Some Monitors have a 1ms while others have 5ms. The same goes for TVs, some have a smaller delay and some have a bigger one. What you said about the social side of PC supports my point if anything.
With a console, you can stay at home and play with your friends online, or you can invite them over and share some food, have fun and be social while playing a game in splitscreen. While PC only offers one of these options. You see what the point here is? They both offer the same, only that consoles offer something more on top of that, which was the main point of consoles in the first place. So your arguments are largely invalid.
