Dwarf Fortress?clippen05 said:I'm not gonna lie, I can see where PC gamers (like me) are coming from. Why? Because PC games never get to hold onto their exclusivity. Consoles do. Whenever a game that consoles don't have is available on PC people beg for a version for Xbox or Playstation. And so far, I can think that almost all their pleas are met. They're getting a MOBA (LOTR), they got Minecraft, they got Witcher 2, Plants V Zombies, Crisis 2, and a load of older titles I won't list. What have PC gamers got? We got Dark Souls... and not an amazing port at that. What other EXCLUSIVES have we got? I'd love to have Halo or Uncharted. But we won't get it. No matter how much QQing we do, we'll NEVER have them. PC gamers always get the short end of the stick. So yeah, I'm a little angry that consoles can be exclusive but PC can't. And don't say we have tons of exclusive Indie games, because so does Xbox live arcade and PSN. (only one I can remember being ported was Greed Corp.)
Also, I eagerly anticipate the list of console -> PC ports someone is going to throw at me. Maybe I'm wrong, but I can't think of any GOOD ports.
My copy of Diablo 1 for Playstation begs to differ with you.lacktheknack said:Dwarf Fortress?
Two of the Myst games?
The Longest Journey?
Starcraft?
Diablo?
World of Warcraft?
Spore?
SimCity?
Civilization?
The Binding of Isaac?
All of the above are PC exclusives.
Yeah, whatever, man.
Diablo II and III, then. Point remains.CrazyCapnMorgan said:My copy of Diablo 1 for Playstation begs to differ with you.lacktheknack said:Dwarf Fortress?

Maybe... just maybe... they are, so trying to fix the image is pointless?Aiddon said:you are not helping in trying to alleviate the image of PC gamers being a bunch of elitist, close-minded, thin-skinned jerks, morons.

You got a Civ port, it was called Civilization Revolution. Yeah, it was bad, but so are our ports. Binding of Issac IS coming to consoles. Starcraft and Diablo were ported to N64, old ones at least. Spore was ported to the DS, but not consoles. Ok, you got me there. World of Warcraft? Good luck running running that with 512 mb of ram, it needs at least 1GB, not to mention Xbox and PS3 wouldn't allow them to update rapidly. I don't know what the longest journey is so yeah I guess you have me there. The Myst games were made YEARS AGO, you want a port now? It's a little late. And tell me how you'd physically play SimCity or Dwarf Fortress with a controller. If a console can't properly play it, its not the developers fault they don't port it.lacktheknack said:Dwarf Fortress?clippen05 said:I'm not gonna lie, I can see where PC gamers (like me) are coming from.
