i like computer gaming so much that i can point to the two reasons that made me switch to consoles:
1) in college i spent $5,000 building a cutting edge machine (it's on idkfa v2 somewhere) that did EVERYTHING i wanted. it was amazing. then UPS destroyed it when it got shipped back to alaska in 2007. i still have not gained enough dinero since then to build such a machine. so, consoles took the place of the computers.
2) until i moved out of my parents house, i didn't have a solid enough internet connection to play CS or BF2 (my two favorite games). by this time, i was already deep into consoles.
