This is really tilted in favor of the HD Twins.

The Xbox 360 has an "easy to use interface"? Everyone I know - long-time gamer or no - finds it confusing as hell. Also, anyone who wants an "all-in-one gaming and entertainment system" would be better served getting a PC, since that way you won't be nickle-and-dimed to hell and back by MS. Ditto with the "do-it-yourselfers and videophiles" mentioned in the PS3 section.

And what exactly do the HD consoles offer the Expanded Market (or "casual gamers" as the article calls them) that the Wii doesn't? The odd half-hearted PopCap port? Last I checked, both HD consoles' libraries are extremely core market-oriented.

As for the Wii: "Those who prefer a wide selection of adult-targeted titles?" More adults have bought Wii Fit than any three games on either of the HD consoles combined. When will game journalists get over the fact that the majority of adults don't want to play games with convoluted controls, swearing, and polygonal tits?

Just more awful crap from "gaming journalists." Nothing to see here.

To be fair, the 360's GUI is more "idiot" friendly than the PS3 menu(better for people who know wtf they are doing) so the article is not exactly wrong.

 

Calling a game causal is not an insult, since I enjoy all gaming, people who mean or see it as an insult are prolly racists, just saying.

 

95% of game journalists are fucked in the head, don't take it too seriously =).
