There's also another point. If the PC platform isn't bringing any money, which it is, why do the big publishers keep releasing games on the PC? They keep saying piracy this, piracy that, PC gaming is doomed, etc, but they still release on the PC. Economically speaking, if there wasn't any decent money to be made there wouldn't be releases since costs>revenues.
In the end, scorpius is right, projecting piracy on the PC is the most convenient excuse. However console piracy is exponentially rising and I actually know more PC gamers than console gamers yet I know that the console gamers pirate everything they can download and don't see them spending money on games while the PC gamers I know keep on buying, mostly online. Though this means nothing since it's only observed data from one person, me, the truth is that Xbox games get pred much sooner than PC games and hit the pirate channels in way sooner than PC games.
So, let them GTFO of PC gaming and then they'll see in the console market what real piracy is. At least PC multiplayer games don't allow you to play on legit servers if you have a pirated copy, not so on the xbox. |
