toys are generally for children and most ps3 games are not for children

 

 Edit: my post broke, let's try that again.

 

1.	an object, often a small representation of something familiar, as an animal or person, for children or others to play with; plaything.

2.	a thing or matter of little or no value or importance; a trifle.

3.	something that serves for or as if for diversion, rather than for serious pratical use.

 

This includes all consoles and most sports cars (which children aren't allowed to drive, in case you needed this implication spelled out for you).

 

like that TV is a toy. So is this website, so is everything else that is for entertainment i.e movies, computers, sports etc.

 

I think you're starting to understand.

For a few people, TVs and this web site are serious business. For most of us, they're just toys. A lot of people use computers for serious work, but a few use them almost exclusively as toys. 3D accelerated video cards in particular are almost 100% toy, there are very few work-related uses for them.
