My brothers kids are 17, 13, and 6. I might be wrong, but I think 2 of those are higher than 12. Help my math out a little bit here, please.

Furthermore that was just one example. And it's being applied to a game that is not very demanding. What about Witcher 2? It takes a pretty good PC just to run that game moderately well. And these scenarios you guys are grasping on, only apply to people who do have PC's capable of gaming and do enjoy doing so on them. There are tons and tons of people who, as I said, either don't have a PC, or prefer not to game on a PC.

You can continue to stick your fingers in your ears and pretend as if the number is insignificant, logic and common sense tells the rest of us it's not. Otherwise Sony and MS would not bother getting these games.

Lol, it's cute that you think the majority of gamers don't own a capable PC. 

Average gamer is in his/her 30s, so your little anecdote about kids is nearly obsolete as kids don't often purchase anything.

But by all means continue this delusion.

What's cute is I never said a majority of gamers don't own a capable PC.

Seems I am not the one who needs to "read more carefully".

You never explicitly stated it, but your implications certainly suggested it:

"grasping" in reference to the owns PC and console.

"tons and tons of people don't have a PC, or prefer not to game on a PC" - certainly suggests a majority here.

Own a gaming capable PC AND enjoy doing so on said PC's. It's all there in Engish. Nothing about "majority". Help us understand where you are confused.

I assume this was made before E3, but the post date says otherwise.

So they own both just for the hell of it? Lulz

Seems you are the confused one, sir.

You can own a PC capable of playing a game like Minecraft while having no desire to play Minecraft. It can be played with integrated components and there are plenty of great reasons to have loads of RAM in your machine.

Keep reaching though, it's entertaining to read.

This gets better by the minute.

Now I'm to assume by "gaming capable PC" you meant "PC that can play minecraft?"

Wow...the reaching is truly impressive!

Minecraft is the game being discussed in here, so I used Minecraft. Funny, I don't see any whiny retorts from you to that other guy using Minecraft the entire thread. I replied concerning more demanding games like a Witcher 2 just a couple replies ago. Again, "read more carefully".

So you arbitarily switch what types of gaming machines you're referring to?

Lol wow. And I'm the one reaching? Oh dear.

"PC that runs minecraft" isn't really a "capable gaming machine" in reality. Join us.
