Let the flames begin. I think he makes a point...But mostly only leading to PC gaming sticking around for a longer amount of time than most predict (thanks to consoles). But I don't see PC taking the place of consoles anytime soon. Of course I am a PC fanboy, but I'm THAT stupid, lol.

i doubt this will happen anytime soon but it makes sense that it will in the long run, and the faster the better for ALL the game developers out there since they will always make a product that will be avaliable to the majority.

Pure an absolute idiot. Long term? wtf! you have to upgrade your video card every 6-8 months or at least dedicated gamers. There is no investment in a PC it's a money hole. Period. Console you just buy games games and more games and can play it for years "if you wanted".

Cut video card prices upon introduction 50% then you have a viable gaming platform on PC. PC is gonna die eventually because companies like nVidia and ATI gouge people and people are getting smarter and more turned off at PC. Thus why you have dumbass articles like this and the other idiotic one where they measure 1280x1024 and hide from you 1024x768 results..

He makes a point ya like you said? Go buy a PC... that's the only point he makes. Pfff. You only see article like this dumb one because it's these same people that see the PC is dwindling and DYING.
