* One reason i enjoy actual buttons on car devices, is that I can feel them when driving and not looking at them.

* I bought a new Xbox just last Xmas. I bought the physical discs, but still had to download 100GB in data, which took a couple hours, to play the game.

Not to do a console war but the "pitch" of a console to me had always been "it just works." You don't know about computers, you don't wanna know about computers, you just wanna buy the disc, come home, put it in, pick up your controller, and play. The hardest part about the experience is supposed to be plugging the correct cords in between the console and your TV.

Nowadays you might as well just game on a PC because it's just as much work apparently, especially to play online.
