If you were right, maybe. but not really. You posted a four year old article, buddy.

You could have just used google:

Both from last April, when PC actually overtook consoles.

900 Millions estimated pc gamers, compared to 250ish million estimated console users... wow... I knew MOBA, tablets and so on had a impact on the pc games but I didn't imagine anything near this.

The games aren't really comparable.

Skyrim is an RPG life simulator, DA😮 is an interactive story and Dark Souls is an Action RPG.

Nobody equates consoles or tablets to PCs.

Especially not in articles talking about how PC sales have surpassed consoles.

PC gaming has been "dying" for a couple of decades now, and it's still here, still strong, and offers the best Skyrim experience available.

That is a very broad definition of pc. Consoles can also be considered pcs. Tablets and what not are not the same thing imo. You are free to believe iPhones and iPads are pcs as well. Not me, amigo.

You're dumb.

Pcs are not tablets and the like either. Consoles are pc esque these days and you're emotionally compromised.

Be a man and admit your defeat, it's bad enough that you were caught red-handed by a Superman fan of all people.

PC is not dying.....

As long as it's financial viable for publishers to pay the small amount of money to port console titles to the PC, it will still be there. Also, all the download services that cater to PC owners have had a major influence on the PC scene. If Steam wasn't around (and others as well), would PC actually be dying? Maybe but it won't when you have instant access to titles.

Also, this is purely my opinion and not based on fact, but I'm wondering if PC piracy has died down compared to about 5 years before Steam became a major player? I used to have a lot of friends who would download titles (using the bullshit excuse that they can't afford the titles so it's okay to steal them) but they do not now because of Steam.

Another big thing that is good for the PC is the glut of videogame blogs/websties that cater to the industry. Years ago, the only way you could get information about titles (especially on PC) was magazines. Now, you can go to websites and build your own computer, check for compatibility with various components and then pay $50 for installation and shipping. That's how I build my last computer and I know how to do it!

Ahem. It's Cyclops on Fridays.

I think Elder Scrolls takes it for one reason: mods. Don't get me wrong I know there are mods for the other games as well, but it's not exactly the same as the ES modding community.

Personally I can't take fan made mods as points in favor of a games quality. That's nothing to do with the game's own worth, just how good the modders are and whether they made it easy to mod. In fact if a game needs mods to make it a quality title that's a mark against it in my eyes.
