innovations happen on consoles all the time, so i don't know what you're talking about.

Innovation on consoles isn't as easy as on PC because consoles are a closed platform. PC is open, anyone can develop for it, and it shows. For every innovative game on consoles, you have ten on PC.

Closed platforms have their benefits. It creates a unified platform for many to enjoy their products, hence why...well everything would sell better on it compared to PC with a little marketing. Everything is funneled into an all-in-one system. Operating systems on a PC don't need to keep things orderly, but on consoles they are designed to and accept things that are made for it. This is the trade off. It trades chaos for order, which of course order comes with rules. If you don't care then it doesn't matter. Obviously most people don't.

The subject was innovation so don't change it. I agree with you (for the most part, but not entirely) but what you said has nothing to do with what we were discussing.
