IMO, playing Mario is more mature than Halo.  As for flaming, you can take it any way you like.  It's no more flaming than saying that the Wii is only for 9 year olds.

Sure, I guess that's why a small company like EA decided to not put most of their games on the PC anymore? Or why some game developer was complaining that PC gaming was dead? Yep, sounds like console gaming is in deep trouble here.

I do not agree on Adventure and RPG, for the mere fact that the consoles get the best games in those genres.

The big difference being that saying (claiming) your last sentence will get you banned here. Anyway, np... I understand your comment was directed towards Mr Greenberg.

Wait! No! No, I'm not. Help!!

AAron Greenburgs an idiot, Just trash talking to try to put MS in good light, it aint working

Yes I did, I´ve been a computer/pc gamer longer then a console gamer and I think the consoles beat the pc in gaming experience. Take the same game on both pc and console and the experience is always better on consoles if the game is doen properly on both platforms. PC has some better games that suits the PC better but overall console wins.

@Slimebeast. I can't quote you (damn Wii browser)

Rol has already told you you used the wrong years (and combined 2 handhelds versus 1)
I did a rough addition of 2002 (all year) and compared to 2007 (all year)

2002 PS2+GC+XB = 15.45 million.

2007 Wii+PS3+X360 = 15.15 million.

Again fewer consoles sold than last time (check the charts yourself for exact figures, I can't post them)

Handheld wise I kept with 2002 for GBA but as DS/PSP released earlier (late04/early05) I used 2006.

2002 GBA = 7.98 million
2006 PSP+DS = 9.05 million.

I don't see much significant increase.

 What about the keyboard and the mouse? There's so many genres where nuffin beats K&M controls - like RTS, FPS, most action adventure games and most RPGs are better with K&M than a console controller (with or without motion sensing).

If the game is done properly on both plattforms I think consoles wins hands down when it comes to experiencing the game in all those genres except for Simulators & Strategy games.

Strategy games could soon be taken of that list if someone uses the Wii mote or it´s coming clones properly.

Simulators might also be taken of that list IF one can make proper use of motion sensing and steering a car in a game to make it as if it you were steering a car.

The fact that you can play pc games with a pad changes nothing since you can´t get the same experience as consoles from sitting in front of monitor as you can sitting in your living room and yes you can hook up a PC to be able to do the same as a console and sit in your living room with a pad and so on but I am not the one to do all the work to hook everything up so I can get a console like experience when i just as easy could just hook up a console.

(can you see gif smilies with that browser?)

Ok, I stand corrected.

But damn, I still can't get rid of the feeling that console unit sales have increased hugely (both in America and elsewhere).

Perhaps this is how it feels to be CrazzyMan?
