Default PC version of BC2 sold more than PS3 + 360 versions combined

Quote:
Nowadays multiplatform games tend to be dominated by console gamers. Modern Warfare 2, for example, has a relatively tiny PC-playing community. Not so for Battlefield Bad Company 2!

DICE associate producer Barrie Tingle has revealed that at the moment, during the week of the game's retail release sales of the PC version are superior to both consoles, and more people are playing the PC version of the game than both the 360 and PS3 editions combined.


Now that's something that may surprise a lot of people!
We couldn't have any better news this moment than this. Gives us PC gamers a much needed leverage and can only mean good things towards competitive gamers and PC gamers in general. I guess we might start dreaming about some features we really needed in BC2 since we're the bulk of the BC2 player base.

That should confirm we get a epic non-port(unlike this) BF3 then!

I bought BFBC2 for the PC because that's where I feel the series belongs. It's great to hear that the ratio is shifted towards our favor.

Viva la PC.

Thats because alot of PCers were smart enough not to waste their Money on MW2 I beleive they were smart enouhg to realize that P2P Gaming will never ever ever work for Real PC players... Dice has simply set the Balance back the way it should be with PCers dominating sales...

Not true. Updates to the servers now and soon

However it's great that the PC-version seems to be more popular in Europe.
