Dragon Age sold on PC as much as any of the consoles.

Sorry, but we've been told that the smallest proportion of DAO's sales was on the PC. It was outsold by the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions respectively, and not just the combined sales of the console versions.

[MIke_18]

A pirated copy =/= sold copy, remember that.



Yes and the Sims 3 has a console version and that outsold the PC version 10 to 1 right? WRONG.



Spore came to consoles?



The point is they both sold well to bring a lot of profit and the studios now are making sequels and spin offs, so they weren't flops.

What flops on PC? There aren't many big budget exclusives on PC, so I'm curious what flops?

Stalker COP sold about two million copies.
Starcraft II sold three million.
I'm sure that Napoleon Total War and Empire Total war had amazing sales especially when they're making Shogun II next year.
Same with the DOW II franchise.

WHAT high budget PC game flopped?

sales wise?

2 come to mind

Crysis and Spore...but not because they sucked or because they were not well received per se

Crysis didn't flop. It sold three million copies. It sold enough for Crytek to have the money to buy another studio and develop not just Crysis 2 but another engine for all platforms.

Spore was pirated a lot but sold i think nearly 1.5 million copies which is considered a success. Maxis is working on another spore title right now called Darkspore.

They are both being ported to consoles because the developers are aware that consoles sell alot more

Could you post a link. I think i remember that it sold best on 360 and PC equally. Might be wrong

I allready said that Sims 3 was released on ALL consoles a while ago and it didn't even scrape what it sold on PC.

How does a pirated copy count as a sold copy?
A game company isn't going to make a sequel i they sell 50,000 but 5,000,000 get pirated because they would have made no money on any of the pirated versions
The Sims 3 only just came out on consoles, and the fact that the only example you can think of is the game which is well known as the best-selling PC game of all time proves how desperate you are

Where does the SIms 3 come into this?
This was talking about Crysis and Spore, two games which are coming out on consoles because they want to have vastly increased sales

[Aermas]

And again with the long conversations, Mike, make a rational point with supporting evidence in a single post, not all spread out, cause I have no clue what you stance is, other than hating Bioware

Hahahahahaha

I'm sorry when is Spore coming to consoles i can't find anything.

[MIke_18]

Your numbers are way off. The most pirated game of 2010 until now is Starcraft II with 200 000 pirated copies.



And it sold three million. So no PC games don't sell 50. 000 and get pirated 50.000.000 times...

you know...I am looking at one of gameplay vids and I cannot see an XP indicator per kills.....maybe, just maybe this guy is right about the levelling system

I've tried to find it, but the search function is worse than useless. I don't think they've released any exact figures per platform, but I think it was one of David Gaider's posts awhile ago, though it might have been a different developer.

I'm sorry to end up being insulting, but are you stupid?
You seriously think thats what i thought the sales figures were for Spore?
I was pointing out that your argument that a pirated game = a sale is ridiculous, and made up some random numbers as an exaggarated example.

Well we can't know for sure. Last numbers i can find is that 3.2 million copies were shipped. I also remember reading that it sold most on Xbox and PC arround the same.

It doesn't, and that's what he was saying.

=/= means 'is not the same as.'
