However; PC exclusive titles and sequels in long running series do very well in general, games like Half-Life, Civilization and Sims sell millions, not mindblowing numbers compared to having 3-4 billion PC's (allthough 75% of all PC's are a bit poor on gaming seeing as they're about 10-15 years old) but more than enough to warrant large budgets and long development times. |
I don't know where you got Call of Duty doing bad on the PC from. It has always been more popular on the PC with the exception of 4, it is hard to beat 10 million combined over 2 platforms. And I wouldn't say it did horribly but comparatively I guess you could say that. I'm not counting CoD 3 because it was console exclusive plus it was really bad to begin with.
