The stupidiest war that has ever been fought... Ever. It's usually filled with stupid graphic whoring fanboys and nerds who always have to point out every detail of a console thinking that the more power it has the better it is. (Newsflash: Just cause it has more power doesn't mean it's instantly better. For example the SNES didn't need fancy graphics just to create awesome games.).
With the release of the Nintendo DS and PSP the stupidity has taken to a next level, man I should write an article called "Nintendo geeks versus Sony freaks"

(Oh yeah and freak is used as an insult, I can't believe people title themselves as 'freaks', I'll just point and laugh at them.)

The seemingly neverending battle over which gaming console is supreme among all the others.

In the past, the console wars were between Nintendo and Sega, but nowadays, the three main competitors are Sony with the Playstation 2, Nintendo with the Gamecube, and Microsoft with the XBox.

It's really not that big an issue, but since some people love to argue over inane topics, the console wars rage on.
"Man, did you hear? Sony's releasing the PS3!"

"Just another contender in the console wars.

When you send out a text to one of your closest friends in the event that the people you are with ignore you, therefore, making it awkward. It makes it look like you are doing something, and not just a complete loser.
*You Texting*: Hey bro, this is a consolation text, my girlfriend went talk to some people I don't know.

*Friend Texting*: Dude, I feel your pain..my girlfriend does that to me all of the time.

A console elitist,who will blindly buy every console that's made either by Sony or Microsoft(most common examples).A console peasant will support Sony or Microsoft even when they're clearly making bad decisions,and will not listen to any negative comment towards their console,often saying things that don't make sense or are false.Also just because you own a console doesn't make you a console peasant,as long as you acknowledge that consoles are weaker than the PC.
PC gamer: Consoles are weaker compered to their PC counterparts
Console Peasant: NO! CONSOLES ARE BETTER IN EVERY SINGLE WAY!PC GAMING IS DEAD ,BUT YOU PC GAMERS HAVEN'T REALIZED IT YET! XBOX IS THE FUTURE....(you get the point)

The french fries in the bottom of the fast food bag. Just when the disappointment sets in that you've finished your fries, you are pleasantly surprised to find a few more Consolation Fries at the bottom of the bag.
I was sad when I finished my fries before I got home, but at least there are Consolation Fries left.

Describes a videogame ported to PC from a console system, or co-developed for both console and PC, that is percieved to suffer from the alleged shortcomings of console gaming.

Symptoms of console-itis include save points, low texture/graphical detail, poor or no mouse support, lack of gameplay depth, and limited configuration options.

Presumably, with consoles becoming more and more like PCs, console-itis will become less and less of an issue in the days and years to come in the future of the age of tomorrow.
There are too many examples to list. Just think of almost any console game ported to PC that you've played, and there's your example.

The dude that sits between two people and holds all their shit. This man literally can not live because he can't use his hands, because he's holding his friends shit. Sort of like third wheel, but you hold everyones shit.
I'm holding everyone's shit, I feel like the center console after a McDonalds drive thru
