Yet when you go on-line you find time after time game sales are dropping in the PC platform. Yet it is claimed on here that because it is given more AAA's on this site it automatically wins?? LOL.

So PC sales could just be moving to digital distribution over there much like the US. PC is claimed the victor usually on the grounds of better quality not better sales.

[/QUOTE]FYP Yeah, the article is probably about retail sales only, which are declining (because everyone is shifting to digital distribution).
Why would you be surprised when half of PC's good games are expansion packs?  People don't give a damn about expansion packs,  and PC game sells show this.And Pirates are also killing PC Gaming,  I bet Fallout 3 has sold at least twice as much on Xbox 3Godly.

[/QUOTE]You pay for your ''quality'' every few years that is the only reason it gets ''better'' but I spend that money on games ''software'' which is better to me than looking at a few more shades and textures;)

We do care. Tell thta to Burning Crusade or Lich King that no one cares about them. Fallout 3 may of sold more on 360, I wouldn't be schocked but I also don't care. Pirates are harming PC gaming, not killing it, they are not exactly leaving your 360 alone now are they ?

Who cares? It's all about game quality.

[QUOTE=''RuprechtMonkey''] Who cares? It's all about game quality. [/QUOTE]Your quality and my quality are to different things. You think that extra shades and textures make the quality I don't and a lot of others feel this way when you look at the numbers;)
