Facts or shut up!!!! Why are you constantly saying shit without any factual evidence to back up your claim? Dude give it a rest, for the sake of whatever credibility you wish to keep. PC gaming software revenue was a $12.7 billion industry in 2008 up $1.9 billion from 2007. I don’t call that a decline or mark that market as dead. Every time you do one of these articles you sound like a little kid mad because he lost an argument. In the history of HipHopGamers existence in every argument or debate in which he didn’t come out on top of he still would say “I Still feel like i’m right” Dude grow up your argument was smashed on the warzone weeks ago. Stop trying to restate your simply sided argument, every week it’s like you try to restate your original statement which was PC GAMING WAS DEAD!

You again are Wrong. Wrong Sir, Wrong!

Deuces!

I want to say although I’ma PC enthusiast, I’m also a proud owner of PSP, iPod Touch, NDS, Wii, PS2, PS3 and Xbox 360.

And I0ve enjoyed a lot game slike Halo 3, Uncharted, Little Big Planet, Fable 2, Loco Roco, Mario KArt5, Mario Galaxy, Mario Shake, etc.

And Iknow perfeclty what can I expect from consoles. What are its strong points (easier use, chepaer).
And of course nowadays consoles sells more than PC (except some games like VALVe games) games, but what can not tolerate people say lies about PC gaming. Because the last thing PC gamers need is more missinformation.

Saying that this article is wrong is just being immature and naive… Im pretty damn sure if pc was the only place where people could get video games it would be much bigger. Also anyone notice that PC fanboys are just the worst of them all… They apparently think we know nothing about gaming because we own consoles…. lol i have an nice pc and i know a hell of a lot more about gaming then some of them…. u know the ones who sit there and think they’re 1337 because they can run crysis, and spam epic FAIL every chance they get… Good read/video

For someone that gives two shits about PC gaming why do you waste your time talking about it? The fact that you don’t actually use accurate information like worldwide view of PC gaming, but the constant(It is fracking dead, No one is gaming on PC or it is too expensive to game on PC)

What is the point and what is the angle?

This articles is plenty of wrong information. Please, if you don’t know anything about PC gaming, don’t talk about it. I don’t know nything about Hip Hop, so I would never record a video talking about that. In fact I’m an expert about PC gaming.
1.- You’ve talked about titles, and exclusive titles. Ok, check this out: http://adrianwerner.wordpress.com/
Crysis, Crysis Warhead, The Witcher, Gothic 3, Drakensang, Empire Total War, Dawn of War II, The Sims 3, Sins of a Solar Empire, World in Conflict, STALKER, Company of Heroes, Titan Quest, Demigod, Red Orchestra, ArmA II, Still Life 2, Memento Mori, Ankh 3, Twin Sector, machinarium, The Whispered World, Runes of Magic, Fighter Ops, Crayon Physics Deluxe, rFactor, Trackmania, Osmos, etc, etc.
IS a fact that PC have more exclusives (and more titles) than any other platform-
2.- ONline: Best on PC. More people playing on PC, STEAM, xfire, impulse, GFW LIVE!, etc. Many services with many posibilities.
3.- Controls: More posibilites on PC, keyboard and mouse, any gamepad you want, guitars, etc.
4.- MODs: FRee content by community, not possible on any other paltform: research and development, neotokyo, portal prelude, the haunted, etc.
5.- DLC: Mostly FREE on PC (CoD4, CoDWaW, ME, FEAR2, etc.)
6.- Graphics: REAL HD, 1080p @ 60fps an ALL games. and AA4x/AF16x
7.- Games that came after on PC: Street Fighter IV, Resident Evil 5Batman AA, Gears of War, Mass Effect, Mirror’s Edge, etc. ALL with exclusive content for PC. I prefer wait and have new content and extras
8.- You CAN connect ANY PC on ANY TV, and play on sofa.
9.- FREE games. YES FREE LEGAL games. You have PLENTY of games for FREE on PC. No piracy needed.
10.- Cheaper games: Yes, PC games are usually around 20$ cheaper. So if you buy 10 games per year, you can save 200$ (enough to update your PC every 4 years).

You CAN NOT speak about C sales if you only count US retail sales.

Retail sales on PC are dead. The future is online distribution, and Europe and Asia (growing markets) are the strongest PC markets.

Crysis, STALKER, The Witcher, Battlefield 2, Starcraft, The Sims 3, Spore, Diablo II, World of Warcraft, Left 4 Dead, CoD 4 or Gothic 3. ALL surpases 1.2 million copies, being WoW the MOST selling game of all time.

13 million people play WoW, 13 million people play on PC. More than 200 million PCs around the world.

And 90% of actual games comes out on PC aswell, and the PC version is the best of three (PC/PS3/360):

Batman AA, CoD4, CoDWaW, MW2, AC, ME, L4D, Grid, Dirt, SFIV, RE5, SC, DAO, etc.

If you have a decent PC, there’s no reason to buy a nextgen console for only 4 or 5 exclusive titles.

I think that everyone seemed to have really forgotten Steam… and most 360/PC games are developed for both platforms at the same time… Because Microsoft wants their games on the PC. I know alot of hate from the PS3 fanboy is the fact that many Xbox 360 exclusives also goto the PC and personally I think that Microsoft and Valve are all that are keeping real gaming on the PC alive… Steam keeps Piracy down and Xbox 360 dev kits are easy to co-dev with PC.
