Well, I like using the computer for games, like free multiplayer (compared to Xbox), or cheats on the game, but I also like Consoles better because its not laggy and it has good graphics, which would you think is better to play with???
Ever notice that with the last few generations of console all they're doing is getting closer and closer to being a computer? Why settle for a substitute. Get the real thing.
The main reason I prefer console gaming is because I prefer using a controller than a mouse and keyoard.
A hell of a lot of my time at work involves sitting in front of a computer too, so I like a change of scenery, but that's just me.
Consoles are pretty much dominant today. 15 years ago, it was a different story. But there's too much incertainty with computers. I like the control scheme though. Much more intuitive.

I have a controller for my PC. Works great. I only use it for certain games but hell, it's awesome.

Total console sales for 2008 from the NPD group's report including software & hardware rack up approximately 21.33 Billion USD (Gamespot has the story).
The Full Horizon report from the PCGA suggests total PC market value for video games sold, online gaming fees, digital download & retail sales for software & hardware at 68 billion USD. Games Industry has the story.
If one of the markets is dominating the other, it's PCs.
in the pc game group it includes all the flash/java games, so sure they're more played but console games are way better graphicwise and inmy opinion controllerwise
Yes, and it also includes high-quality graphic games like.. umm.. Crysis? And again with the controller - if everyone hates using a keyboard, you know you can get a controller for a PC.
console gaming makes more money then PC gaming
Show your work. I did, and the numbers go in the other direction.
Well that's a baseless accusation. Besides, you might as well throw yourself in there too, since there are people who crack their Xbox 360's and PS3's to play pirated copies of console games.
Console gaming for sure. Theres no limit to the potenial of a game console because thats what it was made for. You can play on massive screens with incrediable graphics. PC games are limited to the size of your monitor and your graphics card.
