World of Goo for 1 cent sale, or another reason why PC gaming is so great.

waffle57 · 2009-10-15 12:36:36

http://2dboy.com/games.phpFor this week only, pay as much as you feel like for World of Goo. You can pay only 1 cent, and still get the game.(Buy 100 copies for 1$, and give them to us!)I don't think consoles have sales as epic as these, do they?

just shows how much bigger PCgaming is if it can deliver that despite all the piracy. In reality piracy numbers don't matter much, what counts are legal sales. Piracy can have emotional impact on you as a developer, but in the end it all comes down to actual legal sales

no, PC revenue should have been higher. Not just matching.

How could it have been higher? I mean nobody buys PCgames, everybody is just pirating, it's a miracle they sold even a single copy of PC version :shock:

I have never ever used the pirating thing as a dig on the PC >_> Further, I'm well aware that pirating on the consoles (moreso in previous gens perhaps?) and the handhelds is similarly rampant.

I don't think piracy is even half as rampant on consoles as it is on PC, consoles have their own problems (like used games sale), but piracy problem is definitly lower

I'll take advantage of this,but I'm too nice and have too much of a conscious to buy the game for only $.01.:P
