10 years and most hardcore gamers will move to PC as Sony pushes it PS Phone and Tables, and Xbox pushes its Windows 7 Phone. The future of gaming can be seen in games like Angry birds. Cheap to make, high profit margin, lots of DLC thats stored in cloud. I think they each have one more generation left in them, but past that I would be surprised to see another console, as we think of them anyway. I think THATS going to end the great war. Everyone will just move to PC. Heh
