WoW will be huge this year... |
What surprises me more is the huge share Chinese games have in that top 10, yes, China has a huge population, but it's still a minority much smaller (at least as percentage) than in EU, USA, Japan and other developed countries that can afford playing videogames. And it must be considered that monthly fees for online games must be lower in China than in USA, EU or Japan, so the number of copies sold for the same revenue should be higher too. This means that in China online gaming must enjoy a share of total gaming market huger than anywhere else (maybe even more than South Korea?).
I read around about about this, but I didn't imagine up to what point.
