What are you doing playing Skyrim on PS3? Get the Master Race edition, it has much better graphics and you can mod the hell out of it, you filthy console peasant.

A facetious term used to claim the superiority of gamers who use personal computers, coined by comedian and video game critic Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw. Generally used to mock people who take the PC-console divide far too seriously.
Often contrasted against "dirty console peasants", an equally jocular term.

"Consoles are so much better than you PC nerds. You can like, hook them up to TVs instead of just monitors."
"Except you can totally do that. PC master race, buy an HDMI cable noob."

A hypothetical step above PC master race. To have and run instead of a personal computer but a whole mainframe for say a company, school system, lab, university, clandestine group, pony fan art site etc.. Can be used as a complement for computer admins. Or a pejorative to make fun of the nature of PC elitists trying to build bigger computers.
Console peasant: what's your favorite game?
Ancient System administrator neck beard: Star trek.
Console peasant: Is that for ps3.
Ancient System administrator neck beard: No young one, it was on a SDS Sigma 7, in days of Glorious Mainframe Master Race Gaming. You even played it with print outs.......

(PCMR for short) An incredibly large social community on the internet who believe that Personal Computers (PCs for short) are far superior than anything and anyone else. They tend to target people who play on consoles, calling them “filthy console peasants, and start ranting on how much better they are. They are narcissistic and overly self-praising people who think that their opinion is fact and constantly push other’s away by being mean.
Just some guy: “Guess what? i just got the new PS5!”
PC Master Race person: “EWW NO FILTH WHY WOULD YOU EVEN SPEND A CENT ON THAT TRASH CONSOLE GARBAGE. PC IS SO MUCH BETTER WITH ALL THE GRAPHICS AND FRAMERATES AND STUFF. YOU’LL NEVER ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING IN LIFE YOU NASTY PEASANT.”
Just some guy: :(

Platino Master Race is similar to the term 'PC Master Race' in which PC gamers refer to PC gaming as superior and use the antonym 'Console Peasants' to distinguish gaming console players. Platino means Platinum and it refers to the Platinum trophy rewards received on the Playstation 3 & Playstation 4 platforms when beating a video games collection of bronze, silver and gold trophies. Platino Master Race refers to the very specific demographic of Trophy Hunters on the Playstation platform. It was first invented by a Youtube celebrity called Arion Evangelist who used the name 'Platino Master Race' for his trophy guides Youtube channel and this later developed onto the 'Platino Master Race' website where platinum trophy guides are taught publicly and free to all. The term is now frequently used on platforms such as Youtube and Twitch to describe Trophy Hunting gaming communities.
