I'm going to agree with Dylan because so far what he has said is true.
People think that PC gaming is over , but it's not and it will never be . Sure i'm annoyed every time i go to a game store to find a huge shelves for console games and just a small one for PC games. Just because the "youth" are mainly console users it doesn't mean its better then the PC. Why most parents give their brats a console because of many reasons :
1) Its easy to keep control on a console then a PC .
2) If you want to confiscate it for a couple of days its easier to disconnect and hide it then a Computer.
3) Most parents just don't know how to work with a computer so if their little brat comes in with a problem , it means they can't solve it.
4) A console takes less place in your house then a computer does (don't start ranting about laptop's because those aren't really meant for gaming) with a console you can store it in your TV drawer or hell even under your bed , with a computer you need a desk.
5) A console just has the console itself , two controllers and a TV. A computer has the computer case , a computer screen , sound boxes , a keyboard and a mouse meaning if one thing breaks its a thing more to replace then a with a console.
6) Latest generation of the "youth" only use a computer to sit on shit like facebook , twitter , msn and what other bullshit . Don't agree with this ? Open your eyes and look around.
7) Another reason why the "youth" are console users mainly is because for at least 50% their parents where console players themselves , it looked cheaper then getting a pc doing all the upgrades and la di da.
Not to mention some parents make the calculation: Console + Few wires = cheaper and less of a mess . Computer + Accessors + Alot of wires = expensive
As for Skyrim being more console friendly? That's not correct , I've been playing Skyrim vanilla again and i see no troubles really . I admit the inventory menus are a pain in the ass but that's the only minor that really bothers me. People seem to forget that Skyrim was designed after what the Oblivion PC gaming fans have accomplished with their mods. Most effects like the kill cams , the decapitating and the horse combat are ideas they used from the following two mods for Oblivion
Deadly Reflexes : http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/8273
Unnecessary Violence : http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/40310
Bethesda said in an interview they made Skyrim by looking at the ideas and mods of the Skyrim PC players , they decided to give out the Creation Kit quicker (it had been a small delay) so the PC fans of Skyrim could make their mods and improve and add new content to the Skyrim World even quicker.
As for S.T.A.L.K.E.R , shit I'm going to have some catching up to do . I only played and own Shadow of Chernobyl :p
