[QUOTE="John_Keyes"]Face it, PC gaming isn't as popular as it was, consoles are taking over, they're the mainstream gaming platform now,

Fact is PCgaming is more popular and profitable than ever and it's also a fact PC never was the mainstream ,most popuilar platform.The reason for switch is simple: PCgaming, while growing steadily, isn't growing as fast as console gaming. At the same time though the costs of developemtn and marketing also are rising many times faster on consoles than on PC. Look at the companies who are switching? Notice something in common? They're the absolutely biggest PC devs around, huge monsters. They are the only ones that can survive on console market and even they are having huge troubles.
Most PC devs are already too small to even attempt console development.
$20mln+ budget games (with additional $10mlns for marketing) with 150peoples teams are quickly becoming standart in console gaming, while typical PC team is ten times smaller and uses ten times less money to make games and twenty times less money to advertise
True say I agree
