Its a poor sales report .
Games like Call of Duty Black Ops tops 1 billion sales nowadays .

Awesome. Alan Wake sold extremely poorly(in fact,TW2 on the PC sold about as much as AW in a month than AW did in almost 2 years).
Do you hear remedy cry and complain like Crytek does?
Killzone 3 is also selling extremely poorly compared to most big name FPS´s(and its the lead PS3 FPS franchise),do you hear guerrilla cry about that?
I can cite a ton of games in similar and much worse situations than Crytek,their game sold extremely well(in fact,not many games reach 3M+ copies),but they still manage to find excuses to cry around.
Well ,
Halo 3 crossed 10 million sales if you counting exclusives only . Uncharted and gears following .
You can't overlook the fact that PC piracy is destroying PC gaming . Main reason why devs are shifting base towards console gaming . See even Crysis is being ported to console for better sales .
Oh please,the most likely reason that Crysis is being ported to consoles is because Crysis 2 isn´t making as much money(and selling nowhere nearly as much Crytek expected on consoles)with the massive advertising campaign they had and mhigher budget than the first,
Piracy is as problem and it always was but its most certainly not killing PC gaming and never will,it´s pretty much the only gaming platfrom to be guaranted to always exist,for the sadness of many,I´m sure. ;)
Also,Halo 3 crossed 10M,yes,but certainly not Uncharted 2,it sold around half as that. Also,Starcraft 2 sold quite a few millions as well,and so did other games on the PC,cherry picking won´t lead you nowhere.
There are very few games that sell that much,the huge majority of games sell around 1M or less.
