This kind of reactions really piss me off. If they do react like that, they are really douchebags. There is a market on PC for games like that. This is just their stupid behaviour that makes PC gamers meaby won't buy their product:

-ZOMG! We cannot release it on PC! No PC is ever powerful to handle it!
-*6 months later* ZOMG! finally, a PC version is coming but as we didn't planned its release, the port will be crap!

Yeah, you first take us for gogos, then you propose us a lame product...Thanks, editors and developers.

Even if the game was a great PC port, how many people haven't purchased it for the PS3, Wii, or XBOX 360 already? Even I have the Wii version...

So they should consider release PC versions as fast as console versions. I don't really understand why do we have to wait like that.

This port is likely to be a massive flop, would've probably been decent if it were released 7 months ago, maybe.


The game is still mediocre to begin with though.

Well, chances are people with a PC beastly enough for this don't play on consoles.

But will that be enough to justify a PC port?

I would think the group they did want to buy the PC port probably already have the game. The percentage of people with PCs that will run it well will be a small amount.

I think the main question is: Is it good enough to port with such limited potential audiences. Unless! Being a Star Wars game, they know that only nerds will be interested. So, what do nerds usually have? Beastly computers! It's actually a well devised plan to weed out the the nerd-wannabes from the nerds.

That's reasonable, now we'll have to see if a solid theory works out once this is released...

I guess I don't count as a "nerd" in that sense, as my PC isn't very good compared to many gamers....

Will all the nerds pay the actual price of the port?

Oh yes indeed. It's Star Wars. They'll buy two copies - one is left sealed.
