Sega: PC gaming sales are bigger than reported

Sega's UK MD John Clark defended PC gaming and explained the charts don't tell the full picture as digital sales are usually left out of the picture:
Physical retail sales of PC games are continuing to slide in 2010, but Sega’s UK MD John Clark says that isn’t a fair representation of the market – with digital sales now accounting for a large proportion of revenue.

“The PC market is third in terms of its year-on-year performance with a decline of 26 per cent, but this doesn’t really reflect the full picture,” said Clark.

“The PC digital download business is now a viable sector but somewhat invisible as it’s not yet covered by Chart-Track. The PC market overall is actually performing much better than is currently reported and remains a vital and strong sector to be involved in.”
