since squaresoft and ea make some of the best games and there playstation franchises have huge established fan bases it shouldn't matter if they are tied down to ps2 because those two company's can make it a successful system. just look at what final fantasy 7 did for playstation. i honestly couldn't care about the xbox it is quite aways away, by the time it gets out ps2 will probably have market dominense and many top quality titles.
i feel that consoles and pc provide different gaming experiences. there are lots of console games that would not make good pc games due to the control.(same goes for pc - console ports) games like cool boarders and tony hawk for playstation would not work on pc because of how they use controlls. fps have many gameplay difference on consoles. medal of honour(also for playstation) is a great game. it could be played on pc without many gamplay changes. the reason it is a good fps on a console is because the game was designed to be played with a simple thumb controled anologe joystick and 8 buttons, the gameplay is good becuase it is well paced for the fact that it lakes a crosshair and freelook. were as quake3 is made for a mouse and even though the dreamcast controller has enough buttons for movement and fireing location and type of the buttons is what matters. i think quake3 on dc will play different then on pc. more gameplay emphasis will be on the plasma gun,lightning gun, and shotgun becuase the other weapons need to be aimed up or down(aim rockets at feet) and the rail gun will be damn hard to aim.
and fighting games are the ones most likely to hurt a non-console gamers fingers. racing is probably the easiest on fingers to play.
anyways my rant is done
I think you two are using different definitions of sexually active. The males of the age of 12 statistic is derived from a different definition of sexually activity than the one that gave the answer of 17.
