Nvidia: ''Battlefield 3 Shows PC Dramatically Better Than Consoles''

Graphics card maker Nvidia has pointed to games such as Battlefield 3 as evidence that the PC platform is way ahead of current generation consoles.'This happens every major game console cycle towards the second half of its product life, because PC technology advances on a regular basis instead of once every seven to ten years.'And so you could imagine how PC technology is dramatically better than a game console today, and you're starting to see that now with a new generation of games that are coming out, such as Battlefield 3.'Money made from desktop consumer graphics rose beyond usual seasonal increases, Nvidia said, and this was due to 'strong global demand from PC gamers, driven by highly anticipated blockbuster PC games just starting to hit the shelves'.Nvidia singled out EA's Battlefield 3, which is the fastest-selling EA game ever, Activision's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, likely the best-selling game ever, and science-fiction MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic, a PC-exclusive due out next month with impressive pre-order figures.'There's some stuff in here that's truly next-gen,' executive producer Patrick Bach said. 'A lot of tech stuff, Frostbite 2. Rendering, the lighting, destruction, to me I'm mesmerised no one else has been trying to do it.www.eurogamer.netIt sucks only console gamers can't experience yet next gen. Well, I hope the 720/ps4 will live up to their hype and catch up with standards.

The 41% divided by 3 equals about 13.6% for each console. 19>13.6.

You can count the PS3,Wii,360,PS2,DC,xbox GC and the PS1 and still the PC has way more units sold,considering there is many many many more PC solds than consoles 19% is basically garbage,look how many people have play cityville on facebook more than 100 million dude.

So yeah 19% out of so many PC it basically nothing.

Indeed, but I'm just wondering why console games sell a lot better than PC games? Yeah there are some really good selling PC games, but console games are where most of the $$ is. Is it because there aren't a high attach rate of games per PC?
