Totally agree, gaming on PC used to be a cluster . I remember back in the DOS days where you actually had to know specific commands for each game to get them to run under prompts. And if Steam wasn't around, I'd say consoles would still have a pretty huge lead in usability. Steam has really changed that game now, though, and you see other companies scrambling to catch up (like EA's Origin). Steam *is* as simple as a console, though, with a few exceptions when games aren't really completed before release. However, you see that on consoles now too, remember Skyrim's launch on PS3 with the save file?
