I gotta be honest, PC gaming isn't nearly what it used to be. I miss the days of StarCraft and Counter-Strike 1.3 - 1.6. Either way, I'm still waiting for a couple titles next year but I'll have managed to go through all of 2009 without getting a single new PC game...

10.Bad control schemes
9.Glithchy ports
8.locks on modding
7.Locks on piracy
6.Windows vista
5.MAC OS
4.total shun from the gaming wars
3.low game sales due to easy piracy
2.No good games
1.10000$ for optimal gaming experience that a 300$ console can do equally as well.

10. bad control schemes? pc gets all the control schemes the consoles get.. i guess the console control schemes must suck then.
9. most console ports run better on pc.. whats your point?
8. consoles dont get modding at all.. atleast pc gets it.
7.piracy.. look at the failbox
6.vista is very stable now.. nothing wrong with it.
5. how is mac os related to pc gaming?
4. there isnt an equal for the pc... why compare it against lower systems
3. yes lets use the npd figures.
2. lol no good games.. there wasnt much for consoles too in the 1st half of this year.. RE5 yea.. that wasnt all that good.. what else did the consoles get?.. we got dawn of war2, total war.. imo both games better then whatever consoles had in the 1st half of the year.
1. costs 500usd to make a pc that out performs consoles multiple times.. you still back in 2000? even then it didnt cost 10000usd.

@Dsny: With a list like that, it's not surprising to find out you're one of those that doesn't bother to read the article on a site built for reading articles.

2009 wasn't the best year for pc gaming, but 2010 is looking to be amazing, lots more superior version multiplats, and alot of great exclusives

I've bought almost no pc games this year, and the games that i did buy were older games, eg. bioshock. I've had so many to keep me going though, Dragon Age comes in a week, Mass Effect 2 in January, Bioshock 2 in Feb or March...it's gonna be a good year. Starcraft 2 of course being the jewel in the pc gaming crown, can't wait to get it, i can't even imagine how cool it will be to have a full 3d engine for the greatest RTS of all time.
