As a die hard PC fan I must ask one thing, what the fuck has PCGA done so far that it’s worth thinking about?

@ humam I agree. Yet more pointless directors milking money from the system. The PC market is clearly doing well and growing stronger – despite Microsofts best efforts at destroying it with Vista.
Games like Empire: Total War and Sims 3 shows that first week sales for a triple A title still out performs many Triple a console titles.
And despite what the media says, the PC still outsells the PS3 by a large margin and even the 360. Its just they dont want you to believe it as the console is an easy option for developers who are nothing more than lazy.
