"Graphics continue to play a huge part in deciding whether to buy a game, meanwhile: 67% of respondents cited it as a factor, making it the single biggest consideration, before even price"

Further proof that people would gladly switch a PS4 for a PC if Sony went third party.

I understood that reference.

The all digital future is nearly here.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Does this include mobile gaming? Because I would expect it to be higher if it was the case

It includes all dollars spent. So every microtransaction, every skin purchased in League of Legends, every gacha roulette in Puzzle and Dragons, etc.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

In other words, it is a completely useless compilation of data that speaks in no way to any trend away from a market for physical purchases since it includes mountains of products only being offerred digitally.

Completely useless data if you ask me.
