You are correct, there are genre's which do amazingly well on PC and not on consoles and vice versa, but there are a few exceptions like Battlefield and Skyrim and probably others due to the heavy realiance on digital downloads which are never tracked. (Skyrim had 5+ million playing at once at one point, that beats out the PS3.)

As for Titanfall, it's headed by the guys that did Call of Duty, no thinking is required to wonder why it's designed with consoles first in mind. :P
The player count and hardware requirements say it all really and I would hedge a bet that the sales will reflect that, but that's not a fault of the PC as a platform, more the fault of the developers not caring enough to push boundries towards PC centric audiences which can potentially pay off in spades.
And it forces you to use Origin... Ugh.

Skyrim had 5+ million playing at once? That sounds... unlikely. Well maybe if you include piracy.

Bethesda just said Skyrim sold 20+ million. According to VGChartz, about 13 million of those is physical copies from PS360. Perhaps another million is Xbox 360 digital bundles.

Also, are you implying BF sold better on PC? I find that unlikely.
