Isn't David Cage French?

I think PC gaming in general has remained more popular in Europe because of the PC gaming heritage there. A lot of people seemed to have grown up playing Amstrad, Spectrum, Commodore and Amiga.

In the UK, the NES was never really a big thing. Sega MasterSystem was probably more successful, but it wasn't until the Sega MegaDrive that consoles sort of solidified themselves as the place to play games.

I have a feeling that in the mid 80's - early 90's, people in the US were all over the NES, while Europe mostly stuck to PC's.
