What's the big deal?

My girlfriend has a Xbox 360, PS2 and Wii.

Maybe the idea of a female gamer still appeals to people, sick, sick people.

this further backs my belief that consoles are for people who like things dumbed down for them.

Taking advantage of the way technology can reach accross a broad span of people (from those who create it for those who may not understand all that goes into it but still enjoy it) I don't think necessarily means it is "dumbed down".

You may not know all there is to cooking, so you make a meal from a box.

It's called "interests" and people can have them or choose not to in whatever they want.

But making a meal from a box IS dumbed down.

I don't really understand.
I mean, the I7 overclocked reaches temperatures high enough to do some cooking on.
But consoles....
