Study: Online-gaming revenue to skyrocket | CNET News.com

At first, I was a pretty big fan of online gaming. The idea of being able to get a game going with anyone, anytime is pretty intoxicating. Then the number of online games increased, and the number of people playing the game I wanted to play at any given time decreased. Now I have a hard time finding someone to play with who isn't a complete jackass.

I used to think Nintendo was completely off-base ignoring online gaming, and to a smaller degree, I still do. But now I realize that online gaming isn't all it's cracked up to be. Long story short, I think this particular report is ignoring what is likely to be a major shake-out in the online gaming realm.
