The irregular quote of the day

I like Slate. In fact I love Slate. But one thing that annoys me is the pro-Microsoft bias that lingers at the online magazine (Slate was founded by the Seattle monolith before being sold to The Washington Post).

From Slate's gaming writer Chris Suellentrop: -

After more than two months with a "Wii60"—gamer slang for owning both a Nintendo Wii and an Xbox 360—I've been surprised to discover that the 360 is the console I turn to when I want a quick gaming fix. The Wii is a "party console"—a go-to system to impress guests, and a guaranteed good time when more than one (physically present) person wants to play. But the allegedly hard-core 360, and not the family-friendly Wii, appeals to the casual gamer in me—the guy who loves to play addictive and familiar mini-games.



Of course it could be coincidental, or could it?
