Consolitis 

A word used by PC gamers to describe the cost-friendly practice of developers in which a video game is clearly designed to accommodate the limited capabilities of console systems.

Symptoms include inferior graphics, sluggish gameplay, clumsy user interfaces, checkpoint-based save systems, a lack of dedicated servers, limited customization and simplified game mechanics.
It was clear that due to the overwhelming amount of negative user reviews of Modern Warfare 2 for PC that Infinity Ward had contracted consolitis.

A conversational parasite. One who often begins a conversation but makes no effort to carry it. They rely on you to converse while the only contribution they make are filler questions like, "What's new?". An annoying characteristic of a convosite is its apparent disinterest in the conversation that it initiated in the first place. They don't seem to have anything interesting to say.
In an instant messenger chat:

Convosite: "Hey"
You: "Hi there."
Convosite: "What's up?"
You: "I'm just getting dressed, about to head out for a party."
Convosite: "K"

(...time passes)
Convosite: "What's new?"
You: "Nothing since the last time you asked which was 5 minutes ago..."
Convosite: "K"
(...time passes)
Convosite: "So what can you tell me?"
You: "Dude, stop asking convositic questions. Say something interesting or shutup!"
