well thats a new one... no pc version because the home pc's are inferior and so weak compared to the mighty consoles... right 
pc games have always had scalable options, with the ability to remove 'more intensive' features, and its never been an issue before. people either accept that their 10 year old pcs cant run the latest fancy shiny stuff, or they upgrade.

While i feel bad about the console trend and that more and more of the traditional PC developers are taking the "easy" way out i dont really care any more. Console gaming is much more than it was ten years ago, the difference is so minimal compared to the PC so if they wanna stop making action and sportsgames for the PC you wont see me complaining, I prefer to play them on my console anyways.

They could've fixed this, eg. at the begining of the PC version the user selects 1-3 how powerful his PC is, 3=xbox360 or better machine, 2=PS2, 1 DS and they scale accordingly and gives each PC user a good experience just like on the different consoles. But i guess it'd be too much work.
Kind of glad i bought a xbox360, seems like its getting more and more common that games arent getting a PC release.. But i'll never pay for any of the games for the 360, it's not like i want to support this.

Just tell them to fuck off then go buy the xbox360 and mod it, they really seem to enjoy sticking it up the ass of pc gamers lately but our day will come again some day, than they will be sorry, greedy motherfuckers.

haha, that's a great comment from the second link.
Meh, I am going to pirate it for 360 then, wanted to buy it for PC because Jedi Academy was so awesome. But not this way Lucas Arts, not this way.

From a business standpoint, they're being smart. So you can really just cry the fuck some more.
This platform is dead, and that's coming from a hardware enthusiast. Get a console and shut up.

I believe your half right. It most likely was a smart move that the game isn't coming to PC. My gut feelings tell me this game is going to be horrible and we all know PC gamers just don't accept horrible games. While on consoles they sell in the millions. Why should they waste money porting it to PC when it most likely won't sell.
As for this platform being dead your out of your fucking mind. Notice the trend that the consoles have been following? Ever since the Xbox consoles are becoming more and more like PC's. Its really more like a these consoles are our PC's half retarded cousin who trys to be like the PC. But the closer they get the more $ it takes to make them and more the consumer spends making PC hardware look more and more affordable and more capable then the consoles. This copycat behavior is working right now but it will bite them in the ass later on.

Bah, it's a ridiculous excuse then. The q6660 should be more than powerful enough, and by the time this silly game actually comes out quad core will probably be the norm, or at least close to it. Give another 6 months or so for the game to be converted to PC and it shouldn't be a problem at all.
Then again, it's happened many times before that developers have said a game wouldn't be out for the PC. Didn't they say that even about Mass Effect?

That's "excuse" is pretty lame. They could just said they're not making PC version because it won't sell due to being sub-par, thus most people who download it won't really cash in. It's like PC-only Crysis, super-overhyped, an ok game in the long run, but expectation were so high, most people were dissapointed and end up not buying it. That's how PC market works now, you either go for quality (quality multiplayer!) or you won't sell, nobody eats shit around here, sorry. Look at Call of Duty 4, sells on all platforms, lots of people play it on all platforms, most people who liked it, bought it for multiplayer that is fun to play, everyone wins simply because the game is well made.

The "excuse" might be lame. But what does it matter in reality? If they released it, they would get bashed for it being a lame console-port. It's the way it goes, no release on PC and people complain about that. If they release it people complain about it being a watered down console-port.
