Graphics options and upgrades on the consoles? I could go for that. As long as the hardware isn't almost double the price like the games, for whatever reason.
Even though I have and have had various consoles, my gripe with them is, the games don't really progress a whole lot after the console's release. Minor code optimizations here and there let devs squeeze a leeeeetle bit more out of the hardware every other game release, but for the most part progress is at a halt till the next generation of consoles.
On my PC, game devs can push the boundries and my budget determines how far I can push up those graphics sliders, though I generally upgrade if they're not maxxed out =)
For very casual people though, I get it that a PC and upgrades are just too much housekeeping and maintenance.
