“It keeps on growing,” says Pardo.
World of Warcraft, Diablo 3 and StarCraft 2 creator Blizzard has rebuffed the suggestion that PC gaming is dead.
In fact, PC gaming is in rude health, Blizzard executive vice president Rob Pardo insisted in an interview with GamesIndustry.biz.
“The industry is as healthy as ever,” he said. “From our experience our games continue to sell better than the last ones. I always laugh because as long as I’ve been in the games industry, every year I’m asked ‘is PC gaming dead?’ But it keeps on growing despite the fact it’s been pronounced dead 20 times.”
