No PC Dead Space 2

[Feb 08, 2010, 10:00 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Those EA Financials from earlier had one last surprise, as the listing for Dead Space 2 in their Fiscal Q4 2011 has the entries for consoles and handhelds ticked off, but there is no mark under PC. We inquired if this meant the PC edition was coming at a later date not reflected on that schedule, and were told by EA public relations that: "As of right now a PC sku is not in the plan." Our requests for an explanation went unanswered, so we don't know the reasons for the change. On a related note, the remainder of that Dead Space 2 teaser image is now online.

Except a very large part of the reason why the revenue isn't there is because of the ports being delayed.

Ignoring the rest of your argument which is essentially repeating yourself and trying to draw me into a 5 page circular clusterfuck, you cannot prove this point and everything else you're claiming hinges on it. In fact if anything the publishers would know more about their own sale trends and how pricing and availability would affect those figures than you would. I find it hard to believe they would purposely "diss" the PC when they could be making more money on it. Money is the bottom line after all and you've even claimed that the PC versions make as much or more money due to lack of licensing fees.

I can see how this would distress you though, kind of hard to pirate games that aren't even available on your platform
