GTA 6 is likely to skip PC again and only launching on current gen consoles (kotaku.com)

I'm confused why Kotaku mentioning next gen in the title when Rockstar only commented on current generation PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

I didn't know console games had subscription costs in ways the PC equivalents don't. I'm a PC gamer myself, and wouldn't buy a console precisely because it's a unitasker. But the one task it does do well is couch gaming with a controller, and that's not how I'd use a PC. Fair, if that's someone's thing, but I would just think a console was better for that usecase.

There's not really anything that makes using your PC in the same way inconvenient, you can connect it to your TV and wirelessly connect controllers, even more conveniently. Although switching between games or using different apps while doing so means you'd have to have a m&kb beside you I think, so if you're playing with friends it might be less convenient (personally I only use controller on games that are unplayable on M&KB though, mainly emulated games)
