people will but HALO games too on a PC but they do not make anywhere near the impact they do on CONSOLES
GEARS 1 was on PC but it made more impact on CONSOLE

The reason Gears 1 made more impact on console is because it was released on the 360 first and then ported to PC a year later.
This will not be the case if FF14 was released simultaneously on PS3 and PC.

it would have as PC impact would definately have been lower
you can see all the games mostly console history will do better on consoles

You're right, games like Final Fantasy with a long history with consoles will do better in consoles but that's not the case with FF14 because:
1- It's not a single-player RPG experience like most in the series, it's an MMO like FF11.
2- MMO games have a much bigger fanbase on PCs than consoles.
3- PC sales will undoubtely take a good chunk off the PS3 sales just like what happened with Mass Effect 2 when it was released simultaneously on 360 and PC.
4- Most MMOs play better on PC because of easier and better interface. note: I don't know if this case will apply to FF14 because I don't know that much about it.
