Good news for PC gamers as the industry posted a record setting year. The NPD Group has released its year end PC sales report for hardware, accessories and siftware and totaled 12.5 Billion USD.

"It's refreshing to see an increase in retail sales of PC games after having experienced a few years of declines," NPD analyst Anita Frazier said in a statement. "With revenues from digital downloads and subscriptions on the rise as well, the PC games segment of the industry remains healthy."
