Who really cares about this anyway? Madden sells on consoles, always had.
I think this consolite has been under a rock for a long time. Hasn't seen the latest figures and stuff. ;)

whats the latest figures? The future trumps it my friend. head to head consoles are bigger sellers than PC's, worldwide doesnt matter, because NA is going to be the trend setter. Just wait and see bee bee.
I knew someone was gonna say racing is a sport, but honestly in the gaming world racing falls under simulation (ya ok racing simulation, but still simultation). Racing is cool and all but if you like nascar I'd like to punch you in the face. The only cool racing is formula 1, le mans, and rally, and maybe drifting (though not really a race more style).
Yup, 360 owns, you have shown me the light. AAllxxjjnn
agreed, now send me a friend request Timdog4lyfe on live, ill play you, well beat you in Madden.

Yeh, my 4850x2 is already outdated, i just upgraded last month!
[QUOTE="lettuceman44"]Funny, since PC had 30% in 2007 in NA. Metsvideogame
30 percent trumped by 70 ouch...
70% divided up into: PS2, PS3, X360, NWii, NDS, PSP.
That makes an average of 14% for each non-PC gaming system.
Seems like the PC is doing pretty well as a lone system if we go off those figures. :roll:
Jesus, what am I going to do?!?
My favorite past time is playing FOOTBALL games on my PC. What am I going to do without my FOOTBALL games? Oh god! I'd love to shell out another $50 for another FOOTBALL that is practically identical to previous FOOTBALL games. But now I can't!
Madden was a huge seller on the PC, now that it's gone, I might as well throw it out the window now that I can't play FOOTBALL on it.
That's it, PC gaming is finished for good. No coming back from this. The final nail in the coffin.

IM thinking of getting the G960 or whatever its called, I just hate how GPU's come out each 3 months and are better than yours. I can bankrupt myself very easily on computer gaming, thats why I stay away for the most part.

agreed I mean your playing FPS more than the game. Basically your a beta tester for the system you put together, and if you dont get the right results, oh lets try some modified drivers and then crash oh its so annoying, women love the easy nature of the 360.
Do you honestly think PC gamers care about sports games ?kage_53

Oh totally, I mean i started up stalker and i was in the middle of the sky and i could only see my gun. So i had to install all the latest drivers and patches. Those didn't help very much. the game was still pretty buggy and glitchy and then it blue screened on my out of no where.
Nice talking to you, but i have to go, my hot ass girlfriend i was telling you about wants to play some Halo 3 with me.

try BF2, and next time dont take time to do all the things the 360 does for you, Time is money, and your time is precious, and you are america, and thats why you love 360 and not that time consuming annoying pricey PC gaming.

If they didn't then there would be more games in development for consoles, not the PC, which is not the case.link please for reference, cause I dont believe it, own me if you can.
Uh, Madden 2010 is going to be on PC.

totally inaccurate and not offical. They are surveying selected developers
pc as a beta testing?? lol hahahhahaha:lol:PC gaming is dead. I feel like its PC gaming is going the way of Beta testing, since consoles and home entertainment units for gaming is going to rule gaming in the future. What do you guys think?
Metsvideogame
thats why consoles get the superior versions with updated visuals and with almost all the bugs fixed like mass effect.

that is pretty misleading because it includes a lot of the kinds of games that we, as more hardcore gamers, simply don't care about. it's not going to make me happy if popcap hypothetically did 50% of all video game sales and went PC exclusive, because all i care about from them is peggle (bring me peggle nights NOWWW).Madden isn't on PC anymore because PC gamers don't play Madden. Does this mean PC gaming is dead? No, it just means we don't play Madden.mr_mozillathey just took a year off of the series to figure out what will work better for the platform.. the traditional madden formula basically was a no-go on the PC as far as sales/popularity went, but they're not ditching the platform. the rest of the world buys more pc games at retail, and soccer's more popular in the rest of the world, so stuff like FIFA isn't going anywhere, even for a year :D
being snarky, i'd say anything with north american pc gamers as a target market are in a nasty position, which is pretty much limited to Madden PC and the NASCAR pc games. :D weren't most of.. say, STALKER and The Witcher's sales from europe?It goes to show what demographic Madden Appeals too
Which is north american console gamers.

I have never in my life purchased a sports game, why people continue to buy the same freaking game every year is beyond me. Shooters may have repetitive game play; but at least the setting, theme, story, artistic direction etc. varies.
Why does not getting football game X mean PC gaming is dying? Honestly didn't EA already comment on sport games not being popular on PC?

Stalker did a bit better I think, prolly thanks to being FPS and all, but if I remember correctly something like 1million of the sales still came from russia and other eastern european countries.It goes to show what demographic Madden Appeals too
