Slump deepens for video game sector: survey

Duh... Who would want to pay 65 USD(Including tax) per video game on outdated hardware system?..

DRM and Disc Locked Content killed it.

Severely outdated systems, DRM, Disc and Region locking, not to mention that bloody Cinavia... can you blame the console market sector for declining?

Everyone's too buys buying League of Legends skins to buy console games.

And I dunno about any other gamers, but I bloody HATE how everything is going motion-sensitive. I want to make link swing the Master Sword by pressing the B button, NOT by waving my hand around like an idiot.

Microsoft and Sony are already starting to release plans for their next gen consoles. The PS4 will be out by the end of the year, the 720 won't be far behind. Seems odd that the author would leave that information out as a possible reason why console sales have suddenly slumped.
