    Skyrim PC sales performance speculation

    This thread brings up an often overlooked point though. If there are X number of concurrent users. How many more sales are there.. I would imagine that there are significantly more players NOT playing the game they bought. Basically I do not think PC sales are as bad as everyone says, sure...

    PC sales of MW3 make up less than 5 percent of all MW's sales

    Steam sale figures are never divulged afaik. To put this in a better perspective "Forbes reports that Steam sales contribute 50 to 70% of the $4 billion market for downloaded PC games, and that Steam offers games producers gross margins of 70% of purchase price, compared with 30% at retail."...

    Who has called in sick just to play video games?

    Sick days are paid.... I rarely get sick and it's never enough to warrant a call off. I worked through bronchitis last month, against doctor's orders,which was the first time since 06 that I've gotten sick. If it's enough that I would not be able to come in, I would be taking medical leave +...

    Pure FPS games gone for good?

    You are one of the best posters imho, but do not ever call CoD/BF a twitch shooter. It's nothing like a twitch shooter ala UT/Quake. Sorry it's a snails pace.. it's more difficult shooting a newb in ut/quake that can't move. You do not pull 370 degree shots to keep momentum in less than 1 second...

    Pure FPS games gone for good?

    Yea I remember back when I was a 14 or so and watching mine or my teams name move up the various online ladders and tournament brackets was not even comparable to leveling up and unlocking a weapon everyone should have from the start. Oh wait I actually yearn for those days again because it...

    Am I the only one sitting BF3 out?

    No, you're not the only one sitting out a shitty franchise of a game that has absolutely no appeal to me and some of the most laughable game mechanics I've seen in my 25+ years of gaming. OBVIOUS ALERT: THIS IS AN OPINION AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU DISAGREE WITH IT IT'S INDISPUTABLE.

    Pure FPS games gone for good?

    I will continue to hope that it's not gone because it's my most favorite form of gaming. The only thing a new Arena shooter could do to improve the experience for me is add good match-making and competitive features out of the box with superb netcode while having the depth of UT/Quake. I will...

    Anyone else kinda tired of DeathMatch? Where'd the round based games go?

    That's like saying chess is a bad game. Dueling has always been more about outwitting your opponent. In fact by definition it's quite the opposite of dull.

    Would you like the "twitch" style of fps gaming brought back?

    CoD is nothing like a twitch shooter. CoD is slow paced no matter how fast it seems to you. When people refer to twitch shooters they are talking about arena shooters with armor/weapon pick-ups and advanced movement options for traversing the map quickly. I would also like to see one made...

    Did you even watch the interview? I'm going to go with no and if you did, you're most definitely baiting. :(
