A term that unifies “casualization” (from casual), with “consoles”. While in videogames “casualization” means a tendency to make things less complex and accessible to the masses, “
consolization” means the “casualization” applied to games that weren’t casual before. It applies to all kind of games who become less complex because of the necessity of convert mouse to pad controls, lower on memory or graphics requeriments, or downgrade any kind of management (losses the x,
y axis, big menus, scrolling inventories,
auto aim, auto stats, lack of editor or mod support, etc).
Example:
Many games have lost plenty
of quality due to their
consolization, their predecessors were
richer and deeper in each aspect but these multiplatform versions were designed limited by inferior platforms...

consoled

A form of making out, always in a car, over the center console. Usually, this happens because a girl is too
prude to take it to the
backseat in the car. This action almost always results in sore
ribs, because both people rub their sides against the console while kissing.
Example:
Cooper's ribs were very sore after being consoled by Suzy. She's such a
prude.

The act of creating a PC game which contains console game design concepts or gameplay offering more
instant gratification. These design concepts include, but are not limited to the following:
-Unlockables
-Less customization features
-Very little control for multiplayer hosts
Consolization can often be a result of
porting a console game to PC and may often be accompanied by sloppy optimization and widespread technical issues of all kinds.
It may also less literally mean "cheapened" or "simplified" and can, as such, sometimes be applied even to certain console games.
Consolism
by Luhta on Feb 17, 2010 01:11:15
The belief that one gaming
console is better than another and therefore under no circumstance can
