The CEO of Take-Two, Strauss Zelnick, has said that the games industry is headed towards PC. 

Speaking to CNBC, the exec added that consoles are not going away, but the market is shifting towards more open business models. 

This follows Valve announcing a round of new hardware, including the new Steam Machine which is a new PC, albeit one that has the more console-like interface thanks to SteamOS' Big Picture Mode. Microsoft also appears to be heading towards a PC-console hybrid, per remarks made by the company's exec team about its next Xbox. 

“I think it’s moving towards PC and business is moving towards open rather than closed,” Zelnick told CNBC.

“But if you define console as the property, not the system, then the notion of a very rich game that you engage in for many hours that you play on a big screen — that’s never going away.”
