Will this game be brought to consoles in the future? - MASKO - 09-10-2010
This seems like one of those games thats gonna suffer at the hands of torrents b/c of its single player nature. I don't have a gaming PC and would love to play this game so I was wondering if your lobbying with other publishers and investors to bring it to consoles?
The atmosphere created in the trailers is amazing.......the sounds and everything just create something that I would love to experience.

Oh God, I hope not. I can't even think of a game franchise that wasn't totally trashed by the switch to the console market. Horrible UIs, massive dumbing-down, lack of configurability, lack of PC QA testing, the list goes on.

Since this game has already released on PC how would it effect you?

You should download and try the demo if you haven't already. Even 6 year old video cards can run it on low settings.

no it should not be brought to consoles , it's whole interface would need to be changed and this decision would affect frictional's future projects so a a Big NO

I see no problems with a console port, I'm not sure how good the controls would be with a game pad though.

It'll affect theire future projects by giving them a bigger budget. So Yes.

I don't think this type of game would do well with the console crowd and it might be too graphic (let alone disturbing). If the game was released on console there would NEED to be a LONG EXPLICIT DETAILED NOT SKIPPABLE INTRO that told players what/how to experience and how to "play" the game. Otherwise too many idiots would be like "dur no guns boring stupid dur dur y i die so easy Daniel is a b**** dur dur Imma go play halo".
