This computer is $450 and will kick the ass of a PS4 Pro. Before you say it's $50 more, using a PS4 Pro you have to pay for online which is $60 anyway...

No mouse/keyboard or blu ray player.

nope, too much, 400$, can this pc do VR? ps4 pro has PSVR what about 4k Blueray, Netflix? 

You don't mention how you would have to purchase VR for the PS4 anyway so you can't do that for the $400. Can you have mods for all games? More than one option to multiple services, mass customization of many factors, change game settings, multiple monitors, the choice on hardware, unlocked frame rates, true access to real 4k, multiple sources to get my games from? Didn't think so...

yes you do, consoles are plug and go, you don't have to build one also ps3 from 2006 had games releasing for it in 2013( last of us and gta 5 in 2014/2015), pc from 2006 is outdated,

Don't need a blue ray player and you can pick up any old keyboard and mouse package for $10

not everybody cares about that also your pc didn't beat the ps4 pro for 400$, no 4k Blueray and Netflix support.

Alright then add that to the price, also when I say blu ray I mean to say that you pay $400 for the whole PS4 + bluray + mouse/keyboard.

Nope? Care to provide proof? They don't all happen in the background... Also if I go out and buy a pre made PC I can plug it in and play. Also just because it had games from 2015 does not mean they were good. Did you see Black Ops 3?

Yes, but you still have the cost of online play + your games cost more

Except the PS4 PRro does not have VR for $400. There is still the price buying the VR Headset

While $60 seems alot, you need to have in mind this is over an entire year.

i agree but you get "free games" and social features.

1. GTA V came out in 2013... and Black Ops 3 looked horrendous on PS3

You can get free games on PC. And there are social features for free on PC...

It's actually hard to beat the value of a $250 PS4 ( IIRC, you can get them for that) with a new PC. THey're more convenient, and easier to just grab a controller and play. They're simpler too, thus why lot's of non-techies can still enjoy games without being frustrated by some windows or driver thing they don't understand. Basically they're simpler and easier to use, and factoring in exclusives and such, they aren't a terrible value. I'm still solidly a PC person (plus a Switch, Imma get myself one for Christmas) due to the customization in game settings and such. But if you wanna just jump on the couch, grab a controller and be up and running, consoles are pretty awesome.

Just because it can run doesn't mean the game is playable

We're talking about the PS4 Pro

"playable" is relative, a pc from 2006 can't even run it.  

 

build a pc for 400$ that can beat the ps4 pro, have 4k BlueRay support, 4k Netflix support and small form factor.

Oh. Still stands that it's a really powerful console, well optimized, convenient to use, and much more accessible to non-techies who are daunted by the prospect of a PC. (literally, I grew up with laptops so didn't really know what to think of desktops)
