Consoles of our time.

White Wolf, you didn't consider the other side of the argument. Everyone already agrees that PCs are better in terms of functionality, and there's no need to even ask questions about it. As Nazg said, if they were cheaper and more powerful, many people would buy these devices. Consoles are much more convenient for gaming with a group of people in front of the TV, and also in terms of video or music playback; otherwise, Nazg's point stands.
