If consoles weren't around, gaming would look and be more advanced.

With fewer people playing those games.


I'd say not. Nearly everyone has a computer. They sell more than consoles. Not seeing your logic.

You are talking about graphics mainly is what I was getting from your post (because Civ isn't graphic intense and it still has stupid AI).  How consoles are holding back PC gamers because of technology.  You have a point if the developer is Blizzard which makes their games to be able to play on a decent amount of low end machines.  However, if the games required Crysis 2, GTA 4 specs to run decently or the way they are supposed to (frame rate, etc) then fewer people would be playing those games on PC.  I'm just saying developing for the most recent tech will never result in blockbuster sales on computers.  Case in point: Compare the sales of almost any Blizzard game to a more graphic intense game on pc.
