PC Games Giant Rouses From Slumber

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the why-do-we-even-have-magical-weak-points dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The Rocky Mountain news has a piece up looking at the revival of PC gaming." From the article: "'PC gaming used to take up the entire store,' said Ken Levine, president and creative director for Irrational Games. 'Now PC gaming get's a tiny little shelf. Literally you have a fraction of the shelf space.' So which is it for the future of PC gaming? Is it a dinosaur marching toward the tar pits or a sleeping giant ready to wake and reclaim its past glory? The industry's top advocates say there are plenty of problems keeping PC gaming down - but just as much potential that portend its inevitable rebirth."

    "Now PC gaming get's a tiny little shelf. Literally you have a fraction of the shelf space."

    The day that PC games do not literally have a fraction of the shelf space in a store is the day the universe faces some serious, serious issues.

    Best Buy gives PC games an isle or two which is more than what they offer other indiviual systems.

    I didn't know Best Buy owned islands and built stores around them.
