Why PC Gaming is Surging

If PC gaming in its current state is considered "surging," then it's more doomed than I thought.

The PC Gaming market made $20 billion in 2012. The whole gaming industry, including mobile games, made $63 billions (source: yahoo/reuters). A "dying" platform that represents about 1/3 of the total market can't be called doomed, don't you think?

I've always think that PC gaming is great, but it lacks...dedicated games. There's your indie game here and there only for PC, and your big AAA release from time to time, but it's missing dedicated games.

PC may not have as many exclusives or dedicated games as consoles do, but if you compare PC with each console individually (the PS3 or Xbox360 or Wii exclusives), the situation is not that bad.
