Guys, in a week or so he will retract the statement again, citing it as another joke.
He is just drumming up publicity with his nonsense predictions of the future. Console gaming is massive and has brought casual gamers in to the fold - something that every games developer loves as it makes them more money than just the PC gamer / nerd.
I have no love for consoles myself and I have felt that in the past they have actually contributed to the ruin of good gaming by diluting the pool with rubbish games, but they are definitely here to stay.
