[QUOTE="dom2000"]I am not a consolite but you have owned no one in this thread so far, based on actual evidence the pc was not the highest selling platform! Your claims are unsubstantiated and flat out wrong. If anything its the hermits in this thread claiming the pc outsold both consoles combined that are getting stomped!Mograine

PC makes more money than all consoles. Combined.

PC, even excluding the casual and social video games, occupies 30% of the gaming industry. All consoles combined - not just those from this generation - are up to 43%.

Facts > your useless opinion.

My post refered to the sales of bc2 not the platform in general where the pc is no where near close to selling more than both consoles combined, in fact can you think of any multiplats that would have sold more than both consoles combined? Other than valve games could you even name 5 multiplats that sold more on pc than either console?....and im sure WoW and other mmorpgs have a massive say in why the pc makes money than the consoles combined...if that in fact is true!

I think Pachter don't know that BC2 sold better on PC than any console.

Kinthalis

Except that it didnt....the xbox outsold it if you would actually look at figures and not make things up.

Care to link us to these figures? I'm asusming you won't be stupid enough to post someting like VGA charts, of course.

Well if you actually read this thread you would see them. http://bfbcs.com/BFBC2_leaderboard/pc on the left hand side...

3 548 782>3 098 178>2 771 013.....xbox>pc>ps3! I think thats about as accurate as we are going to get.

[QUOTE="DevilAtrix"]You think portal 2 , Dragon Age2 and Crysis 2 etc sold more on pc is that what your telling me? Mograine

Dragon Age 2 and Crysis 2 are crap games compared to their predecessors. No wonder they sold worse on a platform where people can actually inform themselves before they buy a game.

Is this actually true? Considering COD, even without dedicated servers and full of bugs and crashes still is one of the best selling pc games year after year...and seriously overpriced dlc sits at the top of steam for weeks after it comes out. The majority of both console and pc gamers are uninformed....this sterotype of pc gamers somehow having better taste in games and are more intelligent in their decision on what to buy is completely wrong....this is clear to see when masterpieces like system shock 2 sell very poorly.

[QUOTE="TheMoreYouOwn"][QUOTE="Jankarcop"]

I think you and Pacther both looked at the wrong article. For you its okay, but for him its not okay----he's failing at his job.

BC2 sold most on PC.

Jankarcop

:( bc2 sold almost 3 million on 360. It didn't even break 1 million on pc.

God, you consolites are so easy to own. Atleast try debating with actual facts instead of getting stomped all over the place.

I am not a consolite but you have owned no one in this thread so far, based on actual evidence the pc was not the highest selling platform! Your claims are unsubstantiated and flat out wrong. If anything its the hermits in this thread claiming the pc outsold both consoles combined that are getting stomped!

Not at all. The PC version far outsold the console versions.

lawlessx

I wanta see some sources for this....theres people on this tread saying pc outsold consoles...consoles outsold pc...pc sold 50% blah blah and i have not seen a single reliable source so it all really means nothing. As a matter of fact I think I remember reading somewhere that the ps3 version only sold 4 copies....

http://forum.i3d.net/battlefield-series-news/147847-bad-company-2-pc-sells-better-than-consoles.html

Where does it say it sold more than either console? It just said it has more players online which is not the same thing!

www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/98942-Battlefield-Bad-Company-2-Invades-Sales-Charts

"BBC2 topped sales charts for all three platforms on which it was released, with 53 percent of sales on the Xbox 360, 31 percent on the PS3 and 16 percent of its copies sold for the PC."

I remember wrong, it was UK only. But still do you have worldwide charts, that shows pc sold most?


Nohtnym

Theres also http://kotaku.com/5487038/battlefield-bad-company-2-players-prefer-pc-to-console which i think is where hermits are getting all their exact figures from..... at that time pc had more players online than either consoles, but no where does it say it outsold either consoles or has "50% of the sales".

Oh Michael Pachter. I'll never take anything you say seriously, but I'll always love hearing you say it.

[QUOTE="Nohtnym"]

So what? Console version (especially 360) usually sell more. Plus BC2 sold best on 360, pc being what 15 percent?

This guy is an idiot. I'm pretty sure BC2 sold more on PC than all consoles combined...and it was a console port.millerlight89
Dont think that is right :) Pc had more teamplay points or something like that than both consoles combined but its incredibly unlikely it outsold both consoles....has a game ever done that? Maybe team fortress 2 but i cant think of any others than would even have remote possibly of doing that......

Hmmm 800,000 on pc? Yet the likes of Crysis sold 3 million and this game i would say has at least a similar amount of hype, also its strong focus on multiplayer will limit the effect piracy may have.....umm he clearly doesnt have a notion! The majority of multiplats sell significantly more on consoles although i think its clear this wont be one of them....im not sure pc will outsell the consoles but it definitely will be quite close between the 3 platforms!
