6. There is also the reality that the console versions of the same games usually sell better.

 

here is the hole in that, console games need to sell way more to make the same revenue for publishers so while they can make more than PC they have to sell way more than the PC version to accomplish this.

This is why most HD console games are multiplat now.

Outside of licensing fees, why MUST a console version of a game sell more  than a PC version of the same title?  I remember reading how game designers make at least 4 times the revenue releasing a game on a console then the do on the PC.  A large part of it has to do with piracy.
