Microsoft no fan of simultaneous PC/X360 releases

While many publishers see the PC as a good game-selling platform, not counting the illegal downloads of course, Microsoft seems to think otherwise.

Peter Zetterberg (Microsoft) explains their point of view by taking a look at the German market:
If we launch a game that is on 360 and PC simultaneously, we basically shoot ourselves in the foot by allowing the German market to choose to play the PC version – because they are more likely to buy that than spend their money on the Xbox 360.

In other words, it's not the best of things when it comes to Xbox 360 sales because people are more likely to buy PC versions of games than their X360 counterparts.

Wow. Thats some grammar skills you got there. Want ppl to take your site seriously, take your job seriously and put in the extra two minutes to ensure proper sentence structure and spelling. It's like washing your car before you sell it.

Just basically confirming what we have known for a while, MS is sacrificing the PC as a gaming format to shift people onto the sh*tbox.

"Goed" was a typo, but I don't see anything wrong with the grammar although there are multiple ways to formulate that sentence like:
"Despite the illegal downloads, many publishers see the PC as a good-selling platform, but Microsoft seems to have a different opinion on that"
