"I think we have to face the facts - the value of consoles is such that no-one is going to make a PC-exclusive game in the future. Why would they? Why would they ignore consoles?"

By the mouth of Roy Taylor and it rings the truth.

Everyone wants more money,a million selling game is not good enough anymore,although like someone said earlier(can't remember who),you have to pay royalties of a game to the console manufacturer and on the pc side,you don't have that.
So basically you can sometimes make more money with the pc version.

That being said,I truly hope that we will still see great rpg's from 1C that are traditional party based games with npc interaction. and not some crappy hack n slash action games with emphasis on item collection or generic and boring MMO's.
Devs/publishers see the development of rpg's as a hard and complex task,especially now since CASUAL is the new trend word...and I don't like that one bit.
