Okay. So I know being young that to many adults this game seems cheesy. But it's one of the best games I have ever played! It's fun and very original! Round of applause! :)

I am camping this weekend with friends and I'll be playing a few games of Magic The Gathering. I might crack open a mobile title or two.

What are you playing this weekend?

This is really awesome. One point though, it says Super Mario Brothers is an RPG. Don't agree.

That said, seeing the 10x gains (generally speaking) from console to console was cool.

I love a good infographic, and this is really cool. I noticed there is no data on the original X-box tough, I wonder why?

I was also surprised to see that, according to the chart, the PS2 has sold the most units of any console ever, and by a lot! Second place went to the PSone which also had a pretty big lead over the number 3 spot. However, I didn't see any hand held consoles on here.

And yeah, Super Mario Bros. as an RPG? Not even close (well, unless you're talking about this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario_RPG:_Legend_of_the_Seven_Stars)

Hmmm maybe the orig Xbox didn't really move the needle much? Hmm. Seemed to....

Thought the Wii sold more than the PS2 but that makes sense, the ps2 came at the right time where DVDs were hot so it doubled for most people.

The PS2 has also been out for a lot longer. Also, most PS3's aren't reverse compatible so if you want to play the tons and tons of great PS2 games you need to buy a PS2 still.

Sony removing ps2 compat was a mistake largely. I don't are personally but at least providing a emulator would suffice for most people. I can understand not providing comparability for the old controllers, but Playstation -> Playstation 2 comparability was a killer feature they quickly dropped.

I wonder how the next gen consoles will keep comparability with the mad DLC and games we all own?

Hey CheerfulGhosters out there, anyone taking part in The Secret World beta test this weekend? I got an invite and will be on at least Friday night if not the rest of the weekend.

Any day, any map, any mod, this game is amazing.

I have been playing WoW since vanilla. I generally like the direction the game is going--it continues to dominate it's market. I do think that it has been toned-down too much: the devs have tamed the beast for a wider market.

Many of my friends have said the same things about WoW as well. Quick leveling being one thing they seem to point to. Its good to make a game accessible though.

I picked up WoW and it seemed pretty streamlined for new players. Its a balance though between streamlining the process for new players and creating great content for long time players.

What do you think of Pandaria?

I should start up a free-to-20 character some time now that Cat changed the landscape just to see how things have changed. The game was fun for a little while but I got bored with it pretty quick. After playing FFXI for so many years, which is brutally hard at times, playing WoW seemed a little too easy.

Ipicked it up for a year or so and saw that most of the fun seemed to be endgame, and I never had the time to get there. It felt like hours and hours of grind before the real fun began.

I think I am going to finish out my char in the starter and all the quests. Was fun.
