I think you already know , developers like a business go for where the money is. And you say inferior like the average PC is 3X-4X more powerfull than a PS3/360 when gaming PC's isn't much more than a niche market in most parts of the world. |
You clearly don't know how big pc gaming still is. |
I have may not know exactly how big it is but I know. A. it's not nearly as big as the console market. B. Offline PC games are in decline because of priacy C.Online games (subscription based F2P) are experiencing massive growth ( WoW , FLYFF , LORT , Runescape ) Exclusive PC games just don't make sense right now , next year it'll be lauphable , in '10 you'd probably get sacked for suggesting it. @ Your debating skills are superior to your reading skills , i'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing but if you read my post I said. " The average PC isn't 3X- 4X more powerfull than a PS3/360" I could care less how many more times a gaming pc is more powerfull than the PS3/360 , firstly asside from the MMORPG's it won't get the software support the PS3/360 and even in future I see home consoles overtaking PC's in the MMORPG market , once Sony and MS capitalise on the opportunity. |
Not nearly as big as the console market?
Are you suggesting that PC games don't sell as much as Wii, 360, and PS3 games combined?
Because that's a stupid comparison. PC games are selling as much as Wii games, as much as 360 games, or as much as PS3 games.
Nobody says the PS3 is dying because it's not selling as much as 360, Wii, and the PC combined...why then is it ok to use that argument against PC? |
I'm guessing your refering to some isolated cases where PC games ( probably the Sims , Age of empires ) have sold more than the console versions.
I'd like to see some information supporting your claim.
If you compare how much PC games where selling before and how much they are selling now you can measure growth , right now the PC market is experiencing negative growth , therfore it is in decline.
