As a whole, PC gaming is growing. There's plenty of proof in this thread already posted.

lundy86_4

Baloney. Show proof.

Refer to my reply to you above. I've shown you two links regarding growth in the PC gaming market.

You said goodbye, so piss off troll.

I just said we have no way to know the exact number of DD copies sold, which is entirely true. Also, on consoles, cuts are much larger than %30.

Does PC have large publishing fees you have to pay to Sony and MS?

Do Sony or MS take a cut from every PC game sale, like they do with PS3 and 360 sale?

No, on the PC, there is only the Steam, or the retailer, so in the end, pubs get more revenue, and are also able to discount their games on the PC more quickly...

And what are you saying, indie developers have minimal chance for their products to become succesful on consoles, due to all the restrictions from console vendors. Their chances are much better on the PC, due to the open nature of the platform, which is the reason why the PC has the largest indie scene in the industry...

Rocker6

All of the above is actually proving the OPPOSITE.

That console development commands a premium price.

And still devs trip all over themselves to go console, because they knew where the sales is at.

This is the gen of the multiplats, due to high development costs, most devs do their best to expand themselves to as much platforms as possible, to widen the install base...

That has nothing to do with the decline of PC gaming, also don't forget, PC has no first-party, no one pays the PC orriented developers to keep their games exclusive on the PC...

Facebook and WoW

You talk alot and say nothing.

ZombieKiller7

WoW has actually been declining in terms of total users.

Your points don't provide any proof.

Your typical points provide no evidence, just like this one, and when you do, it's typically irrelevant to the topic at hand :lol: Idiot.

[QUOTE="blue_hazy_basic"][QUOTE="Nanomage"] He always does that,avoiding the facts and cherry picking small bits when the whole picture tells adiferent story,everyone but him here can see how flamboyantly he dodges almost every single argumeny where he gets owned,but I love when even after getting owned left and right he still claims victory,it´s hilarious! :lol:Rocker6

Yes Iowe stops getting responses and then as if by magic zombiekiller turns up in the thread with a similar MO, never seen that in a PC thread before! :P

Nah, no way they're the same person...

Lowe only hunts down the "elitists", he never actually bashes the PC as a platform, or comes up with "PC gaming is dead/on life support" crap...

I'll stop crapping on your threads when you stop pulling false statements out of your ass as fact.

Not lying = you hate PC gaming

[QUOTE="blue_hazy_basic"]

In the last month alone has amassed almost double the AAE+ exclusives than both the 360 and PS3 COMBINED so far this year and had a AAAE which neither the 360 nor PS3 has managed in 2012.

Of these games theres been:

1 RPG (AAE) Torchlight 2

1 Simulation (AAE) FTL

1 MMORPG (AAAE!) Guild Wars 2

So when 1 month of PC = more than 3 times your favourite console's offerings of the entire year so far, each in a different genre, how can you argue the PC is dying, that it offers no diversity and that console gaming offers a better experience?

lundy86_4

Never seen these genres on PC, nope not once, it makes gamers care a whole lot.

Ooooooh, you know you have no argument when that is what you resort to :lol:

That's the definition of diversity. Diversity does not imply a set number in variety. Nice try :lol:

Rocker6

Decline of PC gaming is threefold.

1. Cheap common appliances that require no assembly or maintenance to play almost any game worth playing

2. The proliferation of cheap HDTV's

3. The advancement of electronics to the point where you can get staggering performance in small packages

The trend toward ever smaller devices will continue.

No, the article I gave you strictly outlines the entire PC market growth and denotes reasoning as to what areas are helping in the growth. Don't like it? Shut the f*ck up you dimwitted buffoon because we literally took a dump all over your argument :lol:

Well I guess the thread title has been answered. Sadly Yes, even though it goes against the facts and pc has more diversity than all 3 consoles according to this very site.

It's just more fun this way. They think the trolling gets to you, but it's literally that they're just way too funny to leave alone. It's like reverse trolling.

PC has massive genre diversity, however it tends to lack Japanese games/developers which can be a really big change of pace from Western games. In that way, consoles can seem to have more diversity.

Because morons on SW say stuff like "go play your WoW"

how does me saying "go play your WoW" have anything to do with lack diversity. It is simply a joke and everyone should know now that that statement is extremely stereotypical

Dun worry, its probably coming from a child itself. I been around gaming since 1990 and I gotta say, realizing what is out there PC has ALLOT more diversity. PC actually has hundereds of thousands more exclusives then all the consoles together, its just that people tend to ignore them "even know they are extremly fun games" for the AAA titles.

PC gaming doesn't lack diversity, it lacks the community for games like fighters. If people would stop playing shooters...enjoy better games...

Jankarcop

PC has the biggest gaming community , and the most diverse for different genres :| (RTS/MMO/SHOOTER/MOBA) all have HUGE communities, each bigger than an entire console's community :|

Boot up SSF4:ae on PC...if I am lucky, I'll find someone in australia or something, while connecting from europe. Take it easy, fighting games will always have a bigger community on consoles, there is no denying that.

You said "if people would stop playing shooters", but PC has many other big communities for several genres. :|

It has a bigger overall community and diversity is my point.
