On sale, you could pick up the base model for around $250.

Nice Article.. But to be honest… Some of the mobile Games that you mention are not popular now.. Maybe they put a large impact to the people but right now, they are not. CoC and Pokemon Go are not so popular like the few months they have just released… Welp.. I can say that all the PC games that you mentioned are all popular and good… Welp… Its really true that gaming really improves in the past few years until now, and even a new gaming device was already released .. The VR and in the next few years it will be pretty popular to all gamers i think… 😛
idk it depends. mobile games like clash of clans are still popular to this day
LoL dominates online PC game? I think Dota2 mate
Both are MOBAs so it’s pretty much up to your preference to decide which one is better.
@Jebus Edrei Actually I think LoL does dominates online PC game I don’t hear dota 2 that much anymore.
Anyway I haven’t heard of Rocket League so I’m not sure if it’s really popular like the article says other than that this​ article is good .
Rocket League is pretty popular, especially on twitch a lot of streamers get a lot of viewers from streaming it.
Virtual reality gaming will definitely be something to look forward to in the next couple years.
I hope so too. VR has a lot of potential to be amazing in few passing years.
The variety of platforms gamers can play games on are so far ranged. Hopefully, games will transfer to some new consoles. It’s remarkable how far technology got to in 20 years.
It really depends on how far game developers are willing to commit with multi-platform format.
More games, more platform variety, older games becoming cheaper and etc.
