I have a Wii and I guess it fits. Kids have their friends come over and they all have a Wii so nothing new to learn, just play the game.
I admit, I'm a Wii Sports addict. I enjoy the bowling and golf games.

play a game on an up to date PC and you'll see why console games are trash. Graphics can't be touched.

I agree to a point, the thing with PC games is that they're constantly requiring more out of your PC, so it needs to be upgraded etc.
Consoles are more consistent

Eh, they each have their pros and cons.
PC upgrading is a huge negative. But the amount of controls you can have, not to mention easy scripting for some games is a big plus. And mouse+keyboard in FPS is still the best way to play from what I've seen.

there should be a side column over xbox 360 that reads "do you like spending lots of money every year on a console thats always broken?"

love the COD4 on 360. and i agree pc games COULD BE the best on an awesome $12k alien ware pc, but i have better things to do rather than sit around and play games. like...blow **** up or something boring like that.

i think it depends what game you are playing....i play starcraft and diablo 2 and all the blizzard games on my computer because they are only made for my computer. still sick games. but multiplayer is sick on halo 3 for xbox 360, and if you want to have fun with girls who dont like video games buy a wii
