[QUOTE]Remember the [URL="http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=919309"]Sunset Overdrive PC advertisement[/URL] that popped up back in 2014? The ad mentioned that the action-packed 3rd person title from Insomniac would be exclusive to Xbox One AND PC, but the rumor was quickly debunked by Xbox’s Mike Ybarra, who stated that the ad “was a simple mistake”.
Perhaps putting the advertisement up so early was a “simple mistake” since NEOGAF user ‘Enter the Dragon Punch’ is now claiming that the Xbox title is indeed heading to Windows 10.
“Sunset Overdrive is coming to PC”, [URL="http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=205637307&postcount=122"]he claimed[/URL]. He [URL="http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=205637547&postcount=125"]later reconfirmed[/URL] that the game is indeed coming to PC, adding that his info comes from a “[URL="http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=205639179&postcount=138"]very, very solid source[/URL]”. The GAF user added some extra weight to his claim by stating that he would [URL="http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=205640767&postcount=153"]have no problem if a NEOGAF moderator would need to “verify” him for it.[/URL]
According to ‘Enter the Dragon Punch’, he’s [URL="http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=205644483&postcount=166"]100% positive that the game will land on PC[/URL], and that it will be Windows 10 (Universal Windows Platform) only. In the same reply he adds that his source is a real live person, instead of the above mentioned advertisement from 2014.[/QUOTE]

there's also an MCC rumour in there but i think that's par for the course (albeit slightly more possible because halo 5 pc is a thing?)
The previous MCC rumor is based off an out of date and mislabeled listing, but considering H5 Forge is coming I wouldn't be too shocked if MCC comes to PC at some point.
But I wouldn't take a single poster on Neogaf as a credible source unless they've proven to be worth paying attention to.
If it ends up anything like Gears of War Remastered or Quantum Break there'll be little to no point being excited for it anyway. Aside from any porting issues UWP has been one hell of a replacement for GFWL and I doubt its limitations and flaws will have been ironed out by the time this releases.
nvm, just realized how old that neogaf OP was

Still wouldn't trust Neogaf as a source considering they've been banning a fair amount of people over bullshit rumors (mostly NX/Nintendo related).
Only person really worth paying attention to is Shinobi.
sunset overdrive was a fantastic game i'm looking forward to seeing it on PC
Getting kinda sick of delayed PC releases. I had so much hype towards this game on its release but now I have no intention of buying it should it come to PC.

I don't think that the Sunset Overdrive PC release was even concidered when it launched on the Xbox One.
Oh hey there goes the literally only reason I would have thoughts about ever getting an Xbone.

My guess is that their guess is that you never would have bought an xbone so they're bringing xbone to you.
[QUOTE=Mr. Zombie;50476303]Getting kinda sick of delayed PC releases. I had so much hype towards this game on its release but now I have no intention of buying it should it come to PC.[/QUOTE]
It was never announced nor delayed for PC release. Back then Insomniac was still a primary console developer.
Hell, I had no intention of getting an xbone, but if this comes to pc I'm definetely getting it.
Really looking forward to see what Microsoft will announce for their W10 platform at E3. Sunset Overdrive was one of the initially games that made me want to get a Xbox One. But I was a bit drawn off by the price tag of the game and seeing what people thought about the games' content.
Hopefully if this is true the price tag isn't $60 in the Windows Store. But then again, who knows?
It's definitely an unique game though. But, I don't think it's worth dropping $60 on it.
Good, fun, enjoyable game - hope it is worth it if coming to PC!
As long as you mute the dialogue Sunset Overdrive is a good game.

I dunno about the porting issues with Forza Apex, heard it's a pretty good port (unless DF isn't enough info)
iirc Forza is fine, it's Gears and QB that are subpar ports.
I know it's been said many times before, but they should just release these games on Steam or something. I don't want to make a fucking Windows Store account to purchase the game, and neither do I want to deal with UWP. And honestly, why is Microsoft's stuff only available on the Windows Store? They're basically flushing money down the toilet.
Oh yeah, that's right, they're trying to force people to move on to Windows 10.
You'll have to make a Windows account regardless of where you buy it from since the game is connect/tied to Xbox Live
[QUOTE=Makol;50487823]iirc Dorza is fine, it's Gears and QB that are subpar ports.[/QUOTE]
Gears runs fine now actually. QB however.
It shouldn't be forced on me though. It's stupid that they want me to make an account if I only want to play the single-player. I don't care if I don't get stuff like multi-player, leaderboards, achievements, etc, I just want to play the goddamn game (of course, Microsoft isn't the only company guilty of this).
Killer instinct, forza, and tomb raider all run great as well. It's not a Windows thing it's a developer issue.

Competition is good. Steam shouldn't have a complete domination on the pc gaming market. Be thankful something like origin exists.
Tomb Raider isn't a UWP exclusive game so you can't really include it. But yeah, it mostly comes down to the developer.

That's not what I'm saying. Competition is good, but I don't want to have to create a million accounts just to play certain games that don't really need them. People should try to compete with Steam by having a better feature set and customer support, not by having games exclusive to their platform (I mean, look at GOG, they are more popular than Origin, Wstore, etc, and the only titles they have that you can only get on there are some classic titles). Also, Microsoft is the last company I want to see take reign of the PC gaming market.
