Nexon warns consoles could "go the way of the dinosaurs"

The reality is that there's still a huge number of people out there who prefer consoles over PCs because they're simple. Especially considering the consoles now do more than just play games. I read a poll recently that said something like 70% of people prefer playing games on consoles.

You definitely hit the nail on the head for me. This is pretty much the reason I time and time again purchase games for my Xbox over the PC. Consoles have a very rigid standardization when it comes to their games and there is literally no DRM. Yeah, maybe my games aren't as pretty but we're at a point in technology that graphics just flat out look good if it's a AAA title, regardless of platform.

On topic though, he's not right, at all. While yes there is a untapped market of people on consoles for F2P, consoles are not going to be dying any time soon. Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony are all gearing up the next Generation and those will be around at least another 7 years.
