all the previous answer were correct :)
also, I add you shouldn't believe to everything PRs says. They say "PC gaming is dying because of piracy" since 1994 at least.
The point is: PC is an open platform, and the big ones don't like this. They don't because they have much lesser control on an open platform. on X360 MS has decided that "Live" is not free? Then so it is and you can't do nothing about this. On PC, they decided the same thing, but a small indipendent software house called Valve brought a small program called "Steam", and "Live" on the PC was not successful at all.
If software houses are still doing PC games, it's because they earn money doing them. It's plain and simple. Everywhere on the internet Crysis was considered a sales failure, but after having spent 50 millions in its development, Crytek is simply fine, so fine they had enough money to buy another software house. This means Crysis wasn't such a failure, it's quite an evidence.
