[QUOTE=Sift;20197498]Before: Wow this game looks kick ass it's the next silent hill holy shit I'm so excited this is going to be the best game ever. I can't wait fuck yeah. After: Fuck this game it always sucked and was dumb god what a stupid idea PC owns anyway right? Look at it it doesn't even make since, what idiot would want that game. Oh facepunch.[/QUOTE] To be honest they were promising a lot more before. The very first footage ever released was pretty disappointing even when it was going to be on PC.
Grats, you lost my sale. Fuckers.
[QUOTE=OutOfExile;20199138]To be honest they were promising a lot more before. The very first footage ever released was pretty disappointing even when it was going to be on PC.[/QUOTE] It was good and revolutionary at that time, I think. Now it's meh.
[QUOTE=johanz;20199249]It was good and revolutionary at that time, I think. Now it's meh.[/QUOTE] The way they marketed it it sounded like some amazing freeroam detective game but now it just looks like an "easy mode" of Silent Hill
Surprising? No. Annoying? Yeah. Big loss? We'll have to wait and see, but from gameplay footage I'm calling 'Not really'.
Have these people played Penumbra?
[QUOTE=1/4 Life;20185094]They cost more than a PC of equal specifications, they do less, they hardly have any exclusives actually worth buying, they're severely limited, and on one of them you actually have to pay monthly to use your own internet access. You already mentioned mods. And if you're one of those magic 1% of people that actually like using analog sticks, you can use a Wii Mote, PS3 Controller, or XBox 360 controller on a PC. Plus PC has the Novint Falcon. [B]Consoles are fucking useless.[/B][/QUOTE] Thank you and goodnight. This man knows how to make an intelligent point. The rest of you just spouting useless crap because you think someone has to choose between one thing or another and nothing else... well you see the point. The stupidity of even Facepunch surprises me sometimes.
[QUOTE=BlackRainbow;20197055]Kids parents have more money that your average PC gamer, most kids have an Xbox rather than a good PC. [B]Because Xbox is simple and anyone can use one.[/B][/QUOTE]Exactly, the main feature of a console is its simplicity, that doesn't mean the entire userbase is a bunch of simpletons or kids. They're user friendly and all you need to do to play a game is put the disk in and press a button.
They stopped commenting/doing updates on the PC release a long time ago so I pretty much knew this was going to happen. Oh well. [editline]05:58AM[/editline] [QUOTE=dzonint;20188574]That means PC ins't "perfect",and consoles are getting better. If you say "No consoles suck pc ftw",then you are obvious PC fanboy. If you want to play games,buy Xbox and play them without worrying about updating its specs every 6 months. I usually use Xbox for newer single player games,PC is dominant in online gaming,so I use PC mostly for Valve games,and some other ones I find online. I can't remember last time when I played single player game on PC...[/QUOTE] You [i]chose[/i] not to play the many single player games that are available on PC. So that's automatically a flaw of the system?
[QUOTE=robersdee;20194168]I was understanding with u untill the end there "So I play on the xbox. I have ~70 games that I enjoy." so you cant afford to buy a new pc but you can buy 70 games lets see 70 games at 30 dollars/pounds is £2100 hmmmmmm[/QUOTE] Who says he buys them at full price, could get used from ebay hell he could pirate them for all we know.
[QUOTE=Minorkos;20196952]ITT: Alan Wake cancelled on PC, the game instantly sucks now[/QUOTE] I don't know about others, but I've been saying that it sucks since the last E3 (when they showed the gameplay video). It went from a psychological-horror game with little fighting and more thinking to a 3rd person shooter with horror elements.
Fuck... FUCK! I hate Remedy so much now.
[QUOTE=-Jake-;20206576]Fuck... FUCK! I hate Remedy so much now.[/QUOTE] Who doesn't?
[QUOTE=1/4 Life;20206654]Who doesn't?[/QUOTE] Me
Only reason why games get console exclusives is because it's a bigger money pile. Consoles give developers the most money and the PC version is either ignored or ported to make a quick buck.
[QUOTE=Minorkos;20193151]If I can't have it no one can[/QUOTE] Terrible insinuiation. I'm saying I hope it is reviewed badly, if only to prove a point. The PC version would have inevitably been superior, just because of elements that are inherent to the PC. I don't hate Remedy or anything, just hoping that they learn a lesson.
I never understood this 'upgrade every six months' argument. If you want to play most of the games today all you need to do is upgrade your specs to that of a 360 or PS3, at minimum. You wouldn't have to upgrade until those consoles died if all you wanted to do was play console ports.

Oh well, I never really cared about Alan Wake to begin with.
[QUOTE=seano12;20182869]I think there's more behind it than what they're telling us.[/QUOTE] It's Microsoft. There is ALWAYS more behind what they tell us.
I wouldn't release a game without multiplayer and with low replayability value on the PC either. Perfect game for people to pirate.
That's bullshit, and they're a bunch of assholes who think gamers are mentally retarded.

Still runs games good on mostly high settings. Sure if I wanted to max out games like GTAIV/ArmA2 and run at full resolution at 40-50+FPS I'd upgrade but I honestly don't care enough for that. I play most of my games windowed anyways so I can do stuff like MSN/etc while playing.

I wouldn't mind if they weren't developing this game for PC forever, and just decide to drop it now. These devs today are fucking retarded.
