You can't sell a gaming PC to an average customer. There in lies the problem. When a customer wants to play Halo 3, they go to the store and pickup a 360 and Halo 3. They get home and the game works. You go to the same store and spend $600-$800 on a Dell/Gateway/whatever PC, buy Crysis and it probably doesn't play...at all. The problem is a ready made gaming PC that gets advertised, like Alienware and crap like that costs in the thousands, anywhere from $1000-$4000. This is what gets advertised in every gaming magazine in the country. If someone were to manufacture and advertise these $600 gaming PCs, I'm sure PC gaming would see a bit of a resurgence. How can you expect people to pick up DVD players with DVDS, CD players with CDs, Gaming consoles with games and then expect those same people to understand how to build a computer to optimize it for gaming? It doesn't gel with the buying habits of consumers. They want ready-made packages sitting on shelves with a price tag. Fix that issue and PC gaming will see better sales.
