Breakut of Fallout 3 Sales
55% - 360
28% - PS3
17% - PC

Now, I'm being lazy and not looking up and trying to find other sales data.. but 17% is a distant third. Not only that but what about next year when the console userbase increases by 7 or 8 million users for each console?  The PC share will be even smaller.

1.º You are basing your opinion in a single console-centric market. That is hardly fair, and you can't even extrapolate those figures to represent europe because PC dominates nearly all the other european countries.

2.º PC games aren't very frontloaded, and usually keep selling for years. Bioshock, for example, didn't have sell much in it's release but is still selling on PC, appearing in PC top 10 weekly chart in Germany, and often sneaks into Steam's and D2D's top 10 sellers.

3.º Those figures aren't taking into account the sales from Digital Distribution. Fallout 3 is currently 4th on Steam, 6th on D2D and came out today on Gamersgate.
