When I was growing up (I still am), video game consoles were hands down the go to for games. Not so much anymore..
It seems like the trend has changed. More and more of my friends have moved solely to playing games on PC ONLY and forgetting about their Xbox, leaving it in the dust.
Let's look at some numbers...
So, as of December 2016, Xbox Live had just under 60 million active users.
In comparison, League Of Legends, the most popular game on PC, SURPASSED 100 MILLION MONTHLY ACTIVE PLAYERS in September 2016. That's ONE PC GAME nearly DOUBLING the TOTAL ONLINE COMMUNITY of Xbox. PS4 numbers are similar. Talk about a PC takeover...
Before I started playing League, I couldn't understand why my friends were dropping consoles completely, but now that I've been playing for about a year I can definitely see why.. because my Xbox is getting dusty lol. The best part about it is League of Legends is free to download and play, whereas playing consoles online costs.
I'm sorry Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo, but I think you are losing.. Cheers to all of the people who enjoy playing what I call modern team chess, League of Legends. And as always, Steem On!
