I have to say, thank you to everybody for giving this video such a positive rating- I can appreciate that it's a controversial subject and may be something where you feel differently to be, in which case, expect a horrible, long argument with me in the comments! Sorry if I appear argumentative or opinionated, this is something I feel strongly about, and although I can respect other viewpoints, if they do happen to conflict with mine I will try and state my side. It's always very difficult to make a video on such a controversial matter and I avoided adding disclaimers and exceptions to every bit of the video in the fear that people would try to pick out exceptions and stuff, but hey. I hope that if nothing else, this video will encourage you to think about the topics raised and to formulate your own ideas about them. You could even make a video explaining your side and put it as a video response.

This video is a little different to the others that I've put up, don't expect it to be incredibly exciting or anything, it's just me predicting the future of computers, talking about the roles that consoles and computers have to play. Hopefully you find some of it interesting.

Thanks to Justin (cain19822004) and Mr13A for proof-reading the script.

I recorded the examples myself where possible, however there were a few instances where I couldn't do so since I didn't own the consoles or handhelds mentioned, I have referenced the videos where that was the case below and have the links to where I got the footage from.
