IMO teamwork > than skill and more fun. Since I play with friends we can usually just roll our enemies thats why I prefer games like BF, also somethings like the choppers and jets acquire skill.
You got some kind of source for that? That's kinda rediculous to believe that all these major companies would just go to consoles because of PC pirating. Still, people who play only consoles will be happy enough I guess.

Blizzard was hiring for people to "build a Diablo experience for the PS3." It was reported here on GS. Too lazy too look for it, but yeah... Diablo is Blizzard's smallest franchise, and the other two simply wouldn't work on consoles. Hell, there are people who play WoW who use every key on the keyboard and have mice with a dozen buttons. Its ridiculous. lol
Well yeah I've played WoW and other games (like LoL you should know about that :P) but I assume he's talking about other developers beyond Blizzard. Still I feel like too many companies would have too much pride to switch over to consoles. Plenty of companies don't sell out and thus prodcution costs are low and profits are high on the PC.
Too much pride?
They dont care about pride or any of that BS, also switching to consoles doesnt make you lose respect. Its all about money and thats the bottom line. Im sure Blizzard would love to bring their games to consoles but without mouse and keyboard support its not happening.
Once Blizzard goes console next gen it's all over for the hardcore pc game exclusives. Even CDProjectRed ( The Witcher ) is switching over to consoles. And the number 1# reason for all this is piracy. PC gamers have only themselves to blame, not the developers for the decline of pc gaming.

And what 360 and PS3 rack up more and more exclusives?
In case you havent realized games have become so expensive that most games cannot afford to be exclusive anymore on any platform, I wont be suprised if Gears 3 comes to PC or ps3, sure ps3 has alot of exclusives this year but I wonder how many of them will be sucessful prior years they had the same amount or less exclusives than 360. On PC there is no one to pay for exclusives (which is the stupidest thing a dev company can accept), exclusives on PC either do not have money to go multiplatform yet or they cannot work on consoles (most blizzard games). Eventually im sure there will be no exclusives on consoles at all or on PC if consoles get mouse and keyboard support, there is no benefit to the developing company releasing an exclusive.
Because 90% of their consumers are on consoles. Not my words. Their's. PC gamers seem to have this "entitlement" mentality that is just mind boggling.

I don't find that wrong at all. I wouldn't have bought Oblivion if I knew how much modding I had to do it to make it fun.
Its not an entitlement mentality. We just don't like having to wait for modders to fix our games. If thats the case the money goes elsewhere.
Do you guys really think that the developers who put 1-2 years of their lives into making these games really care about the modding community ? I mean really they put their blood sweat and tears into a game just so some hermit can map out add-ons that were never meant to be apart of experience ? They want people to play the game they way they intended, and if the base product is not good enough for you then no wonder they are putting their focus on the console community.
Apparently they not only want PC gamers to have user created mods but they want console users to experience these PC created mods as well. So many uneducated consolities come in here trying to dismiss mods when they probably havent even played one.

Or in some cases that money goes nowhere. There've been a few users already hinting that they would rather pirate the game than play a console port. That's pretty pathetic.
OMG a few users on a random videogame forum admitted to piracy, pc version confirmed pirated to hell
TW2 actually looks far worse on 360 than PC, if you take a look at any PC screen you can see the massive drop in quality, Also UC3 on 360 will never happen.
Looks worse than on PC but still a good looking game
However I wonder how sucessful the game will be on 360, even on PC the game just as a niche following; while 360 the first game isnt even on so thus users are missing out on many of the characters and backdrop which are important in a game like TW2. Also with the sheer amount of games coming out later this year I have a feeling it will be overlooked by most.
