Saw this on an NPR feed .... I have always been a PC gamer so I wouldn't qualify but if anyone is interested, have at it :)

Reporter Laura Sydell is looking for people who used to play video games on consoles but now prefer to play on the PC for an NPR story. Please email [email protected] with the subject "PC Gamer" to share your story.
 
"Timmy was such a nice boy, he used to play on his video game console with his little friends... but then that damned PC got its claws in him and now Timmy isn't such a nice boy any more. He got into drugs and junk food, he speaks in a strange and weird language and I'm sure he's into girl stuff now as he seems obsessed with ponies."

As pc enthusiasts its our duty to sign up and troll the hell out of consoles. :D
 
Was there anymore information on this? What type of story are they looking for?

I was a console gamer from middle school, through high school, and into my 2nd year of college. At that point, I transitioned to PC gaming, which is where I game almost exclusively.

Edit: I've had a fairly interesting console -> PC transition. Sent my story, though it's probably more than anyone there is going to read. We'll see.

That's all I saw ... They post these blurbs down and again on their FaceBook page
