According to the report, PC has 35% of the entire US Gaming Industry, while consoles have 65%, BUT:
- Console Revenue INCLUDES Handhelds!! - Console Revenue INCLUDES Used Market Revenue!!
Remove those two, and maybe you'll see PC making more money than Wii/PS2/Xbox360 combined. |
Don't get too excited. Just Zynga games on facebook did an estimated $250 million in 2009. Add in all the others and the Popcaps and the like and it's hardly the dawning of a new Golden Age of PC gaming. If you pull the ultracasuals (which I love, don't get me wrong) and then take out Valve and Blizzard a few console ports and a handful of other fairly heavy hitters, you aren't left with a whole lot to spread around to the others. It's not like developers are going to start flocking to PC to make their new exclusive AAA games any time soon.

and whats wrong with the PC casual market. At least the PC casual market has real games unlike consoles which consist of 99.9% horsez, babiez, and fashion savvy like games.

Ummm. I'm fairly certain it says I love casual games.
I may be the biggest Popcap whore on the planet, for example. I've bought Peggle, for example, on four different platforms. And I play facebook games (though I don't spend money on them.)
And how dare you rip on horsez and babiez. Makes me wanna go play Barbie Horse Adventures.
