I just read that article myself and was going to post it but you beat me to it.
I'm freaking loving N'Gai!! He's the only real 'professional' game media out there.
And he's 100% right. I can't play PC games anymore because aside from WoW, Half-Life 2 and a bunch of 5 years old (and not even some of those) games nothing will run on my laptop. And I'm not paying another $1000 so I can get a laptop that does.
Nor am I alone. In 2008 laptop sales exceed desktop PCs and it's a trend that's growing.
The majority of console owners are buying Wiis so it's the same deal. It, like a laptop, is powerful enough for the majority of people.
All games should be made to run on Wii/laptops and then up-gradable for those with higher-end PCs and consoles. It's not blaphemsy, it's just common sense. But apparently not to Western game developers.
