More and more people are not using their tv these day. Newspapers and mag are going bankuprt. Runescape is now more popular than hollywood stars or sports. More and morepeople are online so I don't see a future for consoles. The ps3 is a marketing failure for sony. Micro osft has lost alot of money over consoles. The only company doing well is nintendo. Nintendo has kick their hardcore players to the side. http://www.clickz.com/3631593

You're thinking about PS3 as a standalone product. Don't forget Sony has a bigger strategy that includes TV's, surround systems, Blu-ray and so on. Sony wants to be the "heart" of the digital living room and the Playstation is just one of the devices that's used to get there

sony is no longer the same company it use to be. They just lay off a ton of workers.

Here is a little video on sony http://www.thestreet.com/video/cramermarketupdates/10430833.html

That will never happen even if we consider the costy upgrade to Windows XP for proper DX10 and now the immediate release of Windows 7 and who on earth knows what else in a few months after, we have a HUGE gamer turn of right there Personally i never want to hear about PC gaming ever again, my 360 is fine, gets almost all PC games i need, and runs them perfectly fine without a single problem or second of my life lost The only way for PC to really sttact gamers is to have a transparent mode, that is press a different than the "on" button, insert the game DVD and play, no options, menus, searching for pathces and version etc Until then PC is only dying more and more, in fact i hate PC gaming so much that i would love to see it die altogether, i want to play games not loose half my life trying to play them and upgrading to play them

i agree, PC is just too much of an hassle to get going. I mean I'm a crazy C&C fan, and I even play that on my 360 now. PC's are for kids who have no money, who pirate games, and spend 90% of their time getting the games to run smoothly. We 20+ guys have things to do!! Insert and PLAY!!!

As a hardcore gamer I find that PC's offer the best online competition and games, not to mention support and updates. Consoles you have to pay to play online, most games are unsupported and gameplay is inherently dumbed down due to those clumsy controllers. The truth of the matter is, consoles are becoming more and more like PC's. You have internet browsing, mouse & keyboard support etc..

From the presentation of your argument and the lack of any thought put into your comment, its safe to assume you are actually 15 years old, and your mom bought you an x360 last christmas because your too broke to buy your own PC. I'm not one to bash console gaming, I have enjoyed it in the past and the present. But to even suggest that PC gaming is dieing or that someone playing a game on a PC is too complicated is just absurd. My 7 year old cousin can turn on a computer and install a game all by himself, if its too complicated for you then I have a feeling that even reading my response may be too complicated. You say PC gaming is complicated? What about when your xbox fails for the 3rd time. Too bad you couldn't fix it yourself, nope you have to send it to microsoft to fix it and send it back. With a PC, if you have a problem, you google it and apply the solution. Its really that simple.

Your argument doesn't even merit a response.
