I love how you base all your figures on assumptions and estimations and never hard facts.

My opinion, that estimated, little doubt, possibly.

Whether or not they did sell more on the PC, publishers are still making more money off of console games. They retail for more for one example and piracy is not running wild. Did you know that ThePiratebay.org is in the top 10 visted websites on the internet?

Amazing gaming with horrendous glitches. I was warned about NFO. Apparantly shocking.



LAME LAME LAME LAME LAME LAME......

I was really looking forward to getting this, ah well more money to a different dev...

Yeah.

God forbid, your hands would fall off and you would get a rash if you bought an arcade for it. Hell you may cut your life in half.

Definately dont get a 360. You wouldn't like it. LOL

Well i was expecting to be able to get it on PC... so yeah its a bit of a kick in the teeth... and if its a choice between shelling out 300 for this game and just skipping it, i think ill skip it.

More then likely the game would run, play and look a whole lot better on PC as well.

Ah well, either way as long as i get my starcraft 2 and diablo 3, PC gaming will still be by far my favorite.

PC gaming is dead confirmed. Who woulda thunk MS would be the ones to do it though?

Maybe they aren't making much money off of PC gaming anymore. Either way its good that they are doing that.  

PC gaming can go to hell for all i care, way to much hassle to make it even remotly worth it.

PC gaming has been growing really fast, with over 300 millions online PC gamers today. PC gaming is stronger than ever, and many experts/analysts think PC gaming will kill Console gaming, especially with the coming of Onlive and Gaikai.


And how many of them have a good enough PC to run the latest titles like Resident Evil 5 and Alan Wake etc? 20 million? And you don't even need a PC for onlive. You need a TV or monitor and a internet connection. If anything Onlive would kill PC gaming..

It won't ever take off anyway. Not untill everybody can get download speeds of up to 5meg.

And Call of Duty 4 Modern warfare sales were much higher on the Xbox 360 than the PC. (aimed at your other post)

 

How many PS2 owners are able to play Halo 3? And how many Wii owners are able to play MGS4? PC gaming has an incredibly varied market, with MMOs, traditional games, dozens of niche markets, microtransactions games, subscriptions.

Onlive doesn't need a PC if you buy Onlive's console, but that console will play PC games, so it will always add up to PC gaming. The twist is that instead you would be playing PC games in a console, in your living, stealing space from Wii/PS3/360.

Wow, he actually came back and said CoD4 sold more on PC.

Also, I love how he has zero items to back up his claims. Wow. I am flabbergasted.

He also mentioned a graph produced by a site that has no direct line to Live data. They are basing there claims on members of a site. Very inaccurate.

"Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"

Ever heard of this? Even though I can't be certain it sold 10 millions on PC, you also can't be certain it sold less than X360's because there's no conclusive evidence of that too. The only thing we can be certain of is that it definitely didn't sell little because it was the Top selling game on Steam and D2D for months, it still shows up on several DD Top sellers lists, and Activision said, nearly a year later, that it was still one of the 5 top selling PC games.

It also rivaled Sims and WoW (you know, those +10 millions sellers) titles on retail top seller lists for over a year, except COD4 had the advantage of being sold on Digital stores, while Sims and WoW pretty much were not. Even now COD4 is still 10th in Steam's Top Selling Action Games.

I have explained the reasons as to why I believe COD4 PC sales are extremely high several times, I have no need to explain it again.

people are only punished for a crime when there's conclusive evidence!! Good god, if you were a judge you would send to jail everyone that didn't even have any conclusive evidence of crime! You would punish more innocent people than guilty ones.
