Fight games sucks. Fight games on PC sucks even more. Fight games with GFWL system is the ultimate sucking bullshit.

However, is funny how they blame piracy. I think it's just a genre that isnt appealing for the PC. Even in past Steam offers at $4.99 the game wont sell. Only 4 of my Steam friends have it. To compare it with another GFWL title DiRT 2 is owned by 47 of my friends.

Ya..

I knew before I even looked in the comments what they would be here. They present the obvious about piracy and then it's, "Oh the fighting games suck anyhow". Rolling Eyes

There are already a number of petitions online about it because there is community behind these games at the same time flames in their forums. So I guess they suck for you but not for a lot of other people. I like these games too on PC, mind you I have started buying them on console a long time ago.

You train to be an asshole or it comes naturally?

The number of words you put in my mouth are insane. I said only 4 of my Steam's friends have it, not that my only 4 friends doesnt. I have 150+ frineds (without the groups) and I did a comparission with DiRT 2 wich the Steam version is own by 47 of them (I used DiRT 2 because is a GFWL title too wich can be or not added to the Steam game list).

I've never bought a Fighting Game for neither the console or PC. Even in the arcade machines never like all the MK, SF, KoF, KI, etc. Is a genre I dont care about, like RTS, Sports (other than racing) or MMORPG.

So to you is better compare SFIV (a triple A title) with Torchlight and Alien Swarm?

Is like comparing Crysis with Audiosurf. I compared it against another GFWL and triple A title, one that when it was in a sale day it went to 6-9 bucks and its seals like hot bread.

The problem is that your are so an incredible egocentric maniac that the only point of view and understanding of things is yours and you back everything up trying to diminish everyone that doesnt agree with you.

Doesnt worth it anymore to answer and discuss with an idiot. Maybe others could start to confusing with one also.

I couldn't care less about SF series. I guess no one with half a brain will buy that crap for any platform. GG series has tons more characters (that don't suck compared to lame chars in last SF IV which I pirated, played for 4 minutes and deleted) and there are more of better titles than SF which offer more for the money invested.

On a side note: Alien Swarm does suck. That's why it's free.

PS. using piracy as an excuse for not releasing a title for one platform or the other is lame. It costs them little to nothing to do it. TRUE reason for not releasing it on PC is that due to piracy on PC console owners would probably DL it and play it on PC instead of buying it for their console (since most of, if not all, console owners have a PC). That's why PC is awesome Very Happy

besides, back in the days of PS2 (mars chips) when piracy was bad on PC as much as on PS2, no one complained. I didn't see titles like "we are stop producing games because piracy is bad", they just went the way they had to. Notice that back then titles had more quality gameplay wise than now. They had to make an effort to sell the game and to earn respect needed to make someone actually BUY your product in the sea of pirated stuff. Now thanks to sony, god bless them, they can shell out crap and sell it for ps3 only.

btw. on every torr. tracker xbox 360 version of the game get's more downloads than PC instance of the same. I guess when PS3 get's openly cracked, it will get the numbers as xbox360 DLs. Then we will finally have some more quality instead of quantity in titles.
