[QUOTE="Chris_Williams"][QUOTE="adamosmaki"][QUOTE="Chris_Williams"] hurt Lol PS4 killed pc gaming and those stupid hermits wont admit it. All hail Sony and our lord savior Kaz. hey what you know i can sound as stupid as your posts can i talk to someone thats not a flaming pc fanboy? Wanna get an actual discussion going on in how we can fix the pc's problem. Tired of this great thread being derailed. PLAY WITH ME D:
I live in the uk and if u go in to shops like currys or pc world they are over priced on pc's but if you go to specialist shops you can easily get good deals on gaming pc's. I will be getting a ps4 but i love my pc my ps4 will just be for exclusives
They're talking about the sales of regular old pre-built PC's, and 76 million sold in 3 months is still very good. That's more sold than the PS3 and 360 over their entire lifetimes.. Meanwhile, PC gaming is more popular than ever. Hell, it's only one day into the summer Steam sale, and the thread about it already has almost 1000 posts...
PC game sales hit $20 billion last year, no signs of slowingDespite declining desktop shipments as well as an increased interest in mobile and social games, the PC gaming market is still holding strong with a growth of 8% last year
Good thing I have my PS4 and xbox one JUST SAYING~
will the hermits leave their pcs now and join PS4 and xbox one and wii U the growing industy. I mean noone really knows how to build a pc that stuff is hard why spend $2000 grand when you can spend $400

People are not buying that new PC, instead they are buying tablets and smart phones.more and more people are upgrading their pcs heavily and buying/building high-end gaming pcs and that's all that matters for SW. It's not like a man using Dell PC at bank or a grandma using HP to check emails from grandkids not buying new PC is of any importance to pc gaming matket. Plus even casual users bought 75 mln devices.

i don't think the majority of people who used to by prebuilt desktops are really going out and building high end gaming PCs. They just realized that they can check email and brows the interwebs on a tablet or even laptop/netbook

Majority? Of course not. The user base of PCs will soon reach 2 billions. That said there is an increasing group of completely hardcore pc gamers who spend 1K on each upgrade. There's already over 50 mln of such people and this group is supposed to grow to 72 mln by the end of 2015. And this is the most hardcore of hardcore. There is a lot more of just dedicated pc users who upgrade every couple years just enough to play all they want. Neither of this group will ever abandon pcs for tablets and smartphones. Only the most casual pc users might, but they never were pc gamers or even heavy pc users anyway.
That said, majority of "eople who used to by prebuilt desktops" are buying new PCs, sometimes prebuilt desktops, sometimes laptops. Yes, the sales of such devices have fallen, but they're still a lot bigger than they used to be in previous decade. So majority of existing pc users are still buying new pcs
Stupid TC obviously doesn't realize that the PC market caters to many different people and needs, and the stats in that article clearly don't relate to PC gamers and custom built PCs.
Those are shitty overpriced prebuilts. Majority of PC gamers build their own desktops

only spent about $500 for my rig. So I guess I saved $1500 according to the TC? Please show me the way... because spending 500 dollars wont get me a "rig" i've tried.... guess you bootlegged an OS and stole some monitor.

And its not 2014 BOY. How the f*** am I gonna get sales figures for a year that's not over yet? Fail harder c***. no one puts baby in the corner. Sorry man I didn't mean to make you cry. Wasn't trying to hurt your piece of plas...I couldn't finish writing that with laughing. LOL.
You sound like a sad little troll. What's wrong with you? That guy is correct.
[QUOTE="Mr-Kutaragi"] I think most pc sale are still from bigger retailer. Average consumer do not trust smaller online shop or specialty shop because big retailer have strong guarantee and return policy.Mr-Kutaragi
so i see you quoted yourself (weird thing to do, by the way) in red but you didn't fix the grammar. what's going on, dude?
That is quote directly from xbox team. Maybe you do not see so well. You do not help me with color, how do you expect to become mod if do not help forum people? Other gamer help by message me, very good person. Maybe he should be reward with modding power.
"last place no game" is a quote from you. why do you keep bringing up the mod thing? :|
Eh still the majority of PC gamers on statistical sheets and such are inflated due to moms that play angry birds, or people at work who log onto facebook to play farmville, popcap games, desktop tower defense browser games, the sims games, and so on. The majority of people logged as PC gamers are just people wasting time with ultra casual games.
There is a reason why the past 3 e3 shows have had a combined total of 2 GOTY winners that were truly PC exclusive
Stupid TC obviously doesn't realize that the PC market caters to many different people and needs, and the stats in that article clearly don't relate to PC gamers and custom built PCs.PernicioEnigma
There a NO NUMBERS for custom built PC's. You have a link showing those numbers? nVidia and ATI card sales mean nothing. lol!! The only numbers you can go by are companies who build gaming PC only like Alienware.

This is a troll thread, actual facts showing that PC GAMING is growing will be ignored at all costs.
The system has more revenue, gamers, games, exclusives, developers, and gfx/preformance than any single console.
Probably because you were such a dickish, asshole mod when you did have the power and then turned into such a drama queen when you lost it. Are you surprised that people find that amusing and want to keep bringing it up to try and rub a bit of salt into the wound?
