When did it release?
FWIW, I'd estimate I play 3-4 hours a week on average. Maybe.
When my wife takes the baby and visits her BFF for a few days, I take a few vacation days and barely leave the house b/c I'm on xbox 10 hours a day

Apple still has <20% marketshare. Everyone has PCs...
I'm only picking on this post because you were the last one to mention "people have PCs" to me.
I'm well aware.
I can also tell you that Apple did not have <20% of the PC market at my law school. It was much more than that. Those are the people I associated with the most recently, and therefore, where a good amount of my friends are from. The overall market is/was immaterial to my post.
What is material is the market Apple has with my friends which basically nullifies any shot I have of playing multiplayer games with them if they were inclined.
All those Apple owners have consoles instead and play the shite out of those. They even play "nerdy" games like Skyrim on their PS3, yet I'm the "nerd" since I play video games with my computer. That is what I found strange, and was the essence of my post.

I see. I understand your point and it is interesting how one company can take such a strong hold in certain areas. I know iPhones is the same way in Baton Rouge. Nearly everyone I know has one, despite it not being even close to being the most popular phone nationwide.

Video games as a hobby are much better than smoking weed as a hobby...
But some weed + games = the shite.
