The PC elitist are clueless, rockstar makes a billion dollars and proves consoles are the only consumer market to pull one week sales compared to every other demographic including PC, but what does rockstar know about gaming when swimming in all that Scrooge mcduck money.

To play PC games we need to buy a pc which is way more expensive than a new consol and we need to upgrade it regularly to catch up with the new games. consoles have around 5 years live cicle and you dont think if a game will run or not, because it is made to run on your console.

I was a hardcore addicted pc gamer. I like pc gaiming and i am not against it.
but pc's are globally replaced by tablets and smartphones which can not run the real games. here come the consoles to give a real gaming to the gamers in its easiest shape and for less money without need of monthly upgrade.

lol Rockstar made more money on 1 game's launch date than CCP is worth as a company.

Just remember that PC is never going to die just like how consoles are never going to die. In fact, both will prosper anyways and will likely unify as the line between PCs and consoles begins to blur. Mark my words. One day, you and I will not be able to tell apart a PC from a console whether by its form, function, and possibly even its price. The only difference at that point will be the brand name.

Honestly I would welcome this as this will finally kill off this whole PC-Master-Race vs. Console Elite nonsense.

I wonder why PC gamers have such a bad rep

As a brief side note on the Steam Box, I sort of don't get the point to it because they have a mutitude of companies making various ones with different specs, which defeats one of (in my opinion) the advantages of a console which is having specs standardized for easier game development and optimization. The Steam Box is just a less functional PC from what I know of it.

The point your missing is that the console consumer market is the only demographic to ever hit a billion $ sales mark in its opening week. That is more than all the lotr movies opening weeks combined, that is more than any new jay z album will ever make. So when saying console games are inconsequential it's like saying everyone who will sees movies is inconsequential compare your leading sales of the best PC game and compare that to console, consoles sell more. Console gamers are the gamer market deny it if you want but it's true.

The fact that you feel superior to another human shows who the real peasant is here. Next I bet you'll be petitioning for your local government to have Jewish people added into a registry.

I would suck it, but unlike you CCP Fanboys I don't give sexual favors on a video game forum.

I did also start a thread yesterday after reading how much that Activision is spending on Destiny that CCP is running scared from the console market and for the long term health they probably should because it is where the big boys like 2K, Activision, and EA battle it out and CCP are like tykes in the big boy pool. They need to go back into the shallow end where things are safer.

Seems coherent to me.

Perhaps you should brush up on your English & context skills?

Probably the best way to compare would be to look at the sales figures PC vs console for a multiplatform game. But really does it matter? The fact is that PC and consoles are both going strong at the moment and are both viable forms for gaming for at least the next few years. I know consoles will be around for quite awhile because Michael Pachter said they would be dying and the dumbass is always wrong

Now as far as Legion goes, PC is probably the safer bet for CCP. But that does not excuse them for shady business practices with their sales for a game they knew they couldn't deliver their promises on nor does it guarantee that they will be able to deliver on their promises this time. It also means that they have indeed failed in the original selling point of connecting a PC game to a console one.

Maybe, I was just using Destiny as an example really of the obscene amounts of money the big players in gaming can put into these giant multiplatform games. Its almost like if Roger Corman movie trying to go up against The Avengers II.

In fact I'm going to use that from now on CCP is the Roger Corman of gaming

SWTOR actually seems to be doing pretty good as a F2P game:

And one important thing to remember when you compare PC's to consoles is that Valve (which is privately owned), with something like 60 million users, don't publish their financials. No one knows how much money they make, but it's a lot.
