Neither...both are going to be epic piles of crap, so PC is the way to go.
Extreme People play consoles because they like the exclusive games. You can't get great games like The Last of Us, Uncharted, Beyond Two Souls, Heavy Rain etc on the PC..That's what separates PC from PS3. The games.
Even thought PC is more powerful, not many games utilize the full power of the PC (except the original Crysis).. Consoles usually determine how developers make games. Since consoles are much more popular, developers develop games with console specs in mind and just upscale it for PC (for most games). Obviously mods upscale the game to nearly photorealism (skyrim) but a high powered PC is a waste of money because most developers don't utilize the power of the PC.
I think a mid range PC or a Ps4 would give people more bang for their buck.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
