I think this list shows that games don't really sell on the PC, 43 million sellers ever on the PC is a pretty poor effort, the GC and Xbox managed to get 38 each last generation.

PC software is just too piratable.

theres a difference though. a game can make profit within the first 100k sold on PC.

Besides, that list doesn't even have Starcraft on it!

It's probably not the most reliable one, yet.

they were just examples. Starcraft has sold tons especially in north korea

 Lol, yeah gaming is not that big in North Korea...I think you meant South Korea

 

And why is it so incredibly much cheaper to develop for the PC? I can see that the profit margin is higher than for console games, but the development shouldn't be that different. Or am I missing something?
