What a console gamer means when they say cutscenes in a videogame look better at lower frame rates, looking more like a movie than a TV soap opera, the latter of which seems to be preferred by pretentious PC gamers.
The assertion by PC gamers that this is simply an excuse for console gamers to have to put up with lower frame rates is invalid, as current consoles can output 60fps yet many games still render their cutscenes at 30fps, and some games even give the option of 60fps or 30fps, and many players choose the latter.

While gameplay is better at 60fps moments of storytelling like cutscenes look awful and amateurish. While the storytelling is neither better nor worse the presentation is more cinematic if the cutscenes at least are at a frame rate closer to 30fps.
