Jun-Fwu Chin, senior analyst, Software, IDC Malaysia, states, "Survey results show that desktop PCs will continue to be the dominant platform in the gaming industry as declining hardware and PC costs - brought about by aggressive offerings from vendors in recent years - have led to the high PC penetration and year-on-year growth. With regard to demographics, students and gamers less than 18 years old continue to comprise the APEJ online gaming market. Moreover, massively multiplayer online role playing games (MMORPGs) continue to be the game genre of choice in the region, followed by casual games. However, we expect substantial growth in the casual game sector in the near term as providers look to varying game offerings and avoid any saturation issues within their existing serious game offerings."
