With the exception that Remedy are the creators. They've only made 3 games but those games were AWESOME. I have tons of respect for them, and it is kinda sad that the PC version is cancelled. I see their point though, but still.
THe saddest thing though is that they are not the makers of Max 3.

I doesnt matter if you guys aren't interested in the game, but the decision to do what they did was a major hit to the PC community, if that practice eventually becomes more common, i mean saying its not the right plataform? WTF, PC is always the right plataform. Geez!

Anyway, the game has been on going since when? 2003/20004? I guess they are getting close to finished (finally) but it isn't a game I was ever going to run out and buy. Microsoft hasn't made a good PC game since 2005 (Fable: The Lost Chapters). Microsoft is releasing fewer and fewer titles to PC.

I just lost all respect for Remedy, they were one of my favorite devs for the work they did with the Max Payne games. Its a shame really, this game looked very good. Although I have a 360, I'll prolly avoid this one for a while out of disgust.

I'l let you guys know how it is
(if it ever gets here!)But, seriously, it is bullshit what they are claiming 'swayed' them to a console only release. A lot of people game on a PC in their living room with a control pad. I think you will find its like someone else said "the technology behind this game has been and gone" (PC wise) Im still looking forward to it, but it better NOT suck ass!!!

If it were any publisher other than Microsoft, I'd say it would have a chance at a late release on PC (if the Xbox 360 version had success). Microsoft doesn't care about Windows gaming as demonstrated with Halo, Fable, and the remnants of MechWarrior.

I still feel the same way I did the last time you posted this CD
![]() http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=99353 No PC port = no money from me. And if MS doesn't want to put any effort into Windows as a gaming platform? I'll need one license of Windows 8, not four. Everyone here gets around just fine in Gnome. |

Honestly, I can kind of agree. There hasn't been a successful survival horror on PC yet. That is one genre that consoles have nailed to the wall. Not really all that disappointed, it should rock on the 360.
