It is called supply and demand and the equilibrium price. Very basic economics. If demand is high why would anyone reduce prices by 75%? Why would a game that launched at 50.00 now cost 20.00 after just a few months?

In the history of Steam they have never released sales numbers. Top selling means nothing without numbers to back it up.

You really believe that? The reason PC games become dirt cheap is because demand drops rock bottom in no time.

Lots of people just use it as a messenger and there are lots of free to play games like Dota 2 which is by far the most popular game on Steam. Everyone with a PC can play it. It does not require a $500 video card.

Installing windows just puts right back to why so many people don't bother with computers to play games. Too much to deal with. The vast majority of consumers don't have time for that.

Dude the consoles just launched. You really think the first week of sales decide anything?

Why is this in system wars and not over on the PC boards?

Anyone can reduce the resolution to bare minimum. Notice the video isn't even HD. Howdoes that choppy video look better than the Ps3 is beyond me. Did you read the comments?

Arnoud1987000: on these settings with your setup i had 5 fps.. means your a total liar

On my Q6600, 8GB Ram and 9800GTX+ Battelfield 3 ran like shit and that was it for me. Packed up the desktop and got a laptop that can play the one PC game that I still play Dawn of War II.

You probably thought touch screen cell phones were dumb and blackberry would reign supreme.

That's weird. Maybe your internet isn't too fast to begin with and 2.4ghz is enough. The latency on 5ghz is much lower and network speed is much faster and so is the internet speed.
