PC games, unlike console games, KEEP their community of players for quite awhile. A console shooter, for example, becomes practically a ghost town as soon as "the next big thing" comes around. PC titles, on the other hand, have a more faithful community. The community create new maps, mods, and even upgrade the graphics for the games they love. I mean, look how many dedicated players are still on CS 1.6/CS:S/BF2/BF2141/Quake 3/UT99!

Looking at it in this light, there's a LOT of good games on the PC.
You're wrong regarding the bolded text, mainly for two reasons:

1.Shooters as in FPS come from PC arsenal... even the famous Halo which does have his own community (dedicated fans) is not a true console shooter (pretty common to any PC shooter), yet Gears of War is another story.

- check Halo, MW2, GW... and see if it's a ghost town...

2.If we're talking about consoles - their hardcore community is based on Arcades fans like Tekken, StreetFigther, Mortal Kombat, KoF, Twisted Metal, Vigilante and so on...

The moving along to next thing part is just as valid for consoles as it is for PC's. Same dedication for PC titles can be valid for consoles as well... I still have fun playing Tekken or Vigilante with friends, yet we were also hardcore Quake 2, UT, CS 1.6, SC, AoE 2 players but that doesn't seem fun anymore.

What you did with your post has name and it's called: PREJUDICE! - everybody's doing it this days...
