The Mark Rein interview on the Guardian Unlimited (thanks
BeyondUnreal) offers a conversation with the Epic executive, discussing the
company, its games, the Unreal engine, and PCs versus consoles, offering this
outlook: "I'm a real fan of the PC, but yes, consoles are definitely stealing a
lot of hardcore gamers from the PC. When Call of Duty 4 came out, I heard some
of our guys sitting around talking about the great game they'd had last night
and I'm like, 'Hey guys, what server are you playing on? I'd love to come and
join you,' and they said, 'Just send us a friends request,' It was at that point
I realized they were all playing it on console. Plus, the sales of the console
versions are something like ten times the sales of the PC versions."

In all honesty most consoles today are PC's in sheeps clothing. They have internal drives, built in NIC's etc. The caliber of the FPS games are pretty good but I still find the PC equivalents to be more indepth and have far more controls. If they really want to get people to switch, I personaly would want full keyboard and mouse support in any FPS game available on the console. Aslo the whole pay to play on private game networks kind of bugs me.
