and i think once gamers mature, they will notice that they cant spend there free time playing games, but something productive, or something with a salary.

man, i can tell you right now that im more active then most.
i run a buisness and have side jobs on top of all of the honey-do's and yard/housework, not to mention the xmods,cars and motorcycle projects, yet i still find time to get me a good gaming session in atleast 4-5 times a week.
video games are meant to be just that.
pretty soon there is going to be a point where noone will go out and do a **** thing because they can just sit at home and do it with a controller even though it will never be close to the real thing.
you cannot swing an 8OZ. controller the same way you can swing an oversized driver or a loft wedge therefore it will never be realistic.
like i said, if i wanted to get that involved i would go play a round.
i hear what your saying about buying a new system though.
they get more and more expensive. thats why i let my freinds buy them and then hang out at their houses.
i have an xbox,ps1,ps2, 3 nintendo's,1 nintendo64,1 sega saturn, 1 atari jaguar, and an intellivision.
the only ones i have hooked up are the ps2 and the xbox. the rest are for nostalgia and collecting.
call me a purist but video games are meant to be played sitting down while eating cheetos and drinking faygo red pop.
