"While the Xbox 360 version is the more popular of the two in the U.S., BioShock on PC nevertheless manages to make a strong overall sales impression that few PC titles manage to achieve. Interestingly, though, the PC port outsells both the regular and limited Xbox 360 editions in Europe, where BioShock's PC version emerges as the week's biggest-selling software title on any platform."

How's that feel, lemmings? :D

What is this a pissing contest? Hey look the PC version sold more OWNED! What a joke.

You're missing the point. The OP tried to say that the PC is dead, but failed to mention that Bioshock is doing very well in Europe and digital distro like STEAM and D2D. Look no further than the OP's original message if you want to scratch your head.

Yeah I should of quoted the thread starter instead. Just didn't read through his post to much.

does that include steam sales?CaseyWegner

no... and people always forget that. The retail sales figures don't matter anymore because on the PC digital distribution is literally half of the sales, and sometimes more.

PS - Those percentages only account for retail sales...

It's no shock that Take 2 claim this week's All Formats No1 as the critically acclaimed 'Bioshock' becomes the 2nd fastest selling Xbox 360 game (behind Gears of War). Released on both Xbox 360 and PC, 'Bioshock' in particular gives Microsoft's next-gen console a noticeable boost with 88% of sales on Xbox 360 :)and 12% on PC :(, and accounts for 58% of all Xbox 360 Full Price units sales this week.

so the 360 version accounts for 88% of all Bioshock sales, and people say it's not 360 exclusive :lol:, may as well be with those numbers. Either PC gamers don't have the rig to run it, or are pirating the game, either way this is proof that consoles are the future, PC gaming is on the way out.

That doesn't include Steam numbers, by any chance?

it doesnt even include euro numbers...where the PC version outsold the 360 version.

fanboys these days, here in nz the pc collectors editon sold out well before the x360 version
