Now that's an angle you can have and pubs certainly see it that way. They make a quick PC version/port and sell a few 100K which gives some extra revenue for a low additional cost.

It doesn't answer the question wether PC developing in itself is profitable though. Obviously it is in some areas, like MMOs and browser games but big games are obviously made for consoles because that's where the money is at.

Wait, what are we discussing again. Profitability or revenue? Because profitability is debatable while revenue is not since it's clearly in favor of console games.

Revenue doesn't mean jack shit. It's profitability and PC games are just as profitable, and going by how publishers are gettins their sorry asses saved by PC games while their console games dig them in holes, I'd guess that PC gaming is extremely profitable. More so than console games.

Well I'm a revenue guy.
