The problems surfaced and the economy slowed down before 2008 began, yet the consoles have been selling more this year than they did last year. The downturn may temper the demand for video games somewhat, but video games are a nice alternative to taking the family on vacation. That is why movies were so popular. Instead of spending massive amounts of money on vacations, people could spend less money on other leisure activities...video games happen to be such an alternative.
