A drop in china... wonder if the gold farmers got defeated :)
But I guess it is only natural that people don't keep playing the same thing once it starts to get boring.

Still, 10 million down from a peak of 12... I'd have expected the numbers to have been much worse than that... That's still like 80 million quid a month anyway for only a bit of server maintenance!

Apparently MW3 and Skyrim have had record-breaking sales, and the new Zelda and Mario games are about to hit the market.
That's where all the worlds' money is going...
The portion of it that is now not being spent on WoW subs, I mean.

Well Skyrim is .... played it for like 30 hours and got bored with it and after hearing a friend of mine who finished it i was like a few hours away of finishing the main quest(game)
As for MW3 like all shooters i think its like 75% of the players dont play RPGs and the otherway arround. Its hard to be the best in both games you need to put time in it.
And i even see nintendo dying cause the gameboy/nds was really the money income for nintendo and with smart phones and pads they gonna lose players also.
What i want to know is, Titan for example or any other new sick MMORPGs are they continue to use monthly payments or like most free games to have a marketplace where you buy ingame stuff for real money.
Think we have to wait and see what the future brings us.
BTW i was looking at the game blade and soul, releases dates are ridiculous.
Korea Q4 2011 europe/us Q4 2012 I dont know but keeping a game a year long away from other countries seems just not worth it.
And this game had gameplay vids like 3 years ago lol well i guess the gaming industry have a hard time
