Good riddance, asshole.
I don't believe these bastards. I remember finding every interview about GTA IV before it's release, I was really hyped (Yeah it's a great game but that is not the point) The point is that [B]every[/B] guy who is releated to GTA IV said something like "It's NOT going to be on PC 100% It isn't possible no wai or I'm a douche" at least once.

And then a half-assed port that was broken in every possible way came out?
[QUOTE=uchiha2727;20173300]Wow. This is really Going to piss alot of people off.[/QUOTE]
No, That was when they titled it as a Xbox 360 Exclusive... Take a look under my name to see why.

Those 14 dumbs have proven my point quite well I feel.

The tech demos from fucking ages ago showed off much nicer tech than the Xbox version of today shows us.

No shit. If I blurted out "Everything seems to piss off XBox gamers these days", I'd get spammed with dumbs.

Additionally, I'd be talking out of my arse just like you are.
Sounds like they pulled it over where you sit while playing it.
"Some games are more suited for the intimacy of the PC, and others are best played from the couch in front of a larger TV screen."
Are they retarded? It doesn't matter how you play it, it matters if you play it.
Yeah because you can't hook up your PC to a large TV screen.
Dumb asses.
It's the folower of Max Payne :(

Dumb asses.[/QUOTE]
Fuck them, I have my PC hooked up to the same television I use for my 360...
This is just the worst fucking thing they can do. The 360 version was a PORT! How can you port something, and then not release what it was originally developed for! I've been looking forward to this game for 6 YEARS! Since before the Xbox 360 was even announced! "A more compelling experience" my arse. They just need more money because the PS3 is selling more. Greedy bastards.

This is bullshit. "A more compelling experience" my arse. The game was originally developed for the PC, the 360 version was a port/different project. I've been waiting for this game for 6 years, before the 360 came out! They just need money because the PS3 is selling better. Probably because Sony doesn't shit all over half their fanbase all the time.

woah, automerge + Apparent connection fail = sort of double post
Fuck Xbox.
Microsoft is all bullshit anyway. I play my xbox on my monitor. And it's not like you cant put control pad support on the game. This is just another one of those schemes where microsoft decides to make a game exclusive to jump up the bullshit exclusive list of games on their consoles that only support up to dual layer 9 gb dvd disks.
fucking
Never mind, the in game footage wasn't looking too great anyway, although it would've been nice to play.
[QUOTE=1/4 Life;20175846]4 years ago this game looked great, better than Crysis even. Anyone still remember the tornado physics demo they had running?
All I see now is watered down console shit. The graphics are fucking terrible.[/QUOTE]
Irrelevant, Crysis in pre-release looked better than the actual product.
[QUOTE=thisispain;20182685]Irrelevant, Crysis in pre-release looked better than the actual product.[/QUOTE]
Debatable. The obviously pre-rendered screen shots looked better, but the game play videos were bland and had blurry textures.

Considering the fact that A) Storage is limited, B) Computer's aren't infinitely powerful, C) Game art is always downsized in post-production the game would have looked the same regardless if whether it was released on consoles or not.

Yes, but from your own example, Crysis only got better.
It's like these guys started with actual functioning 2006 Crysis quality and stayed there, rather than turning out a decent final product. The fact is, the older PC centered versions of this game, including the realtime videos, looked better.

Use fact lightly. You aren't doing much more than speculation.
[QUOTE=dropp;20174035]this decision was about matching this specific game for a market that pays more and is easier to develop to.
we know, no need to lie.[/QUOTE]
More like a market where you can make any old piece of shit and people will buy millions upon millions of copies of it and any future sequels (MW2).
Just like GTA 4 DLC was a xbox 360 exclusive hur hur
I guess I'll have to go to the... [I]wake[/I].
maybe if this game turns out great then they will think about putting it back on the pc.
More fool you developers.....more fool you, when are you going to learn that not all gamers like your consoles? and dont make me fucking laugh Microsoft with your "we think certain games are better on console" bullshit, thats just hilarious coming from the people who were so convinced RTS's would work on a console yet failed miserably.
