Dyack is Canadian, not European, and this is old news.
His nationality dawned on me after I hit submit. Thus half of the reason I wanted to edit the thread title.
And I wish a common platform was old news.

Denis talked about this around E3 2008, in between the beatings he was getting for Too Human.
He talked about it well before then, too. I remember talking to him a bit about it at E3 '08, but it didn't really go anywhere since we both agreed.
So he was 1/2. He'd be a multimillionaire in baseball.
I thought the PC was supposed to be the end all be all to gaming? Why would you even NEED another platform.

There are too many people who don't understand that a GeForce 8400 is below a 7900. And why should they? It's not exactly intuitive. Similarly, most people don't really understand how a Pentium 4 2.4 Ghz stacks up to a Core 2 Quad 2.4Ghz. Until the industry can name and market parts according to some kind of industry standard benchmark, it'll all just confuse the shit out of consumers.

I have noticed, in CVS, something called "Move Sports". It's like a Wii controller with one of those plug-and-play dealies going on. Seems to play some kind of 16-bit cellphone-esque knockoff games.
It seems to sell fairly decently.
Closest we ever got to One Console Future was the NES, and it's as close as we're likely to see.
