@STAGE:
PC gaming directly effects console gaming, and vice versa. As Naz pointed out, the PC's strong presence in the EU is probably one of the reasons why the 360 has struggled to keep up with the ps3 in the region.
I'm an American, but I'm an example of this (as is Naz, and many other people on this website). I own a PC, ps3, and Wii. I can get most of the 360's games I want on another platform, thus I won't buy one, and likely will not buy one at all this gen. I can get Mass Effect, Gears, and Bioshock on PC (and the same will probably hold true for Halo 3, Gears 2, etc.), and games like Eternal Sonata and Enchanted Arms (and likely Tales of Vesperia) eventually make their way over to the ps3. Games going to other platforms, PC or otherwise, does effect sales.
Saying the PC doesn't count because "it's a different market" is the stupid line HD console fanboys were using to discount the Wii last year. "It's a different market." No, it's not. It's a single market, the video game market, and each platform directly effects the others.
