An increase in the number of people playing free games is providing the gaming industry with an additional source of revenue as gamers shell out millions for virtual goods and add-ons.

I think I'll help the "incline" and start playing farmville or something. I bet that game will be epic once I spend $1000 on a bunch of mutant sheep.

It looks like, in dollar value, PC game DLC is actually just as profitable as console games, more so if you include free to play and casual games.

Maybe now publishers will stop saying the PC is a dead platform that nobody can make money on... but somehow I doubt that.

More like publishers will see that they need to release more "free-to-play" crap

Wait did I write "will"?
