Resident Evil 5 PC’s Existence, Fable II PC’s Lack Thereof Confirmed

comment Commentsprint Printemail EmailDeliciousDiggStumbleUponRedditFacebookSlashdot

We’re not going to lie; relations with our Xbox 360 have been strained as of late. Its once-alluring vanilla sheen has faded to a dull gray. At one time effortlessly slim and sleek, its hard drive has fallen into a self-destructive cycle of binge downloading and purging. The passive-aggressive blog posts aren’t helping. And now, as though a sign from the heavens to ease our conflicted minds, Resident Evil 5 is officially infecting PCs the world over. Or, at the very least, in Poland.

"We know for sure that a PC version RE5 will be released. We don't know when exactly but we expect that it will arrive to shops in second half 2009,” said Jerzy Cichocki of CD Projeckt, the company that publishes Capcom titles in Poland.
   
However, the Xbox 360 isn’t ready to relinquish its control on our Gamerscores (and consequently, our hearts) just yet. Fable II’s radioactive crumb trail, sadly, has no intention of illuminating a path to the PC – at least, not in the near future.

"We're not working on a PC version of Fable II... If this changes we'll make sure you know about it on our website(s),” said Lionhead community head “Woody” after rumors of a PC port surfaced.
 
And thus, we’re back to square one.

They're really just taking the lazy route, knowing people can use emulators for most of everything these days. Sure they could take the time to make a port for Gears of War 2, or they could just wait until some kid writes the emulator that lets people play it anyways. It's not like most ports are ever given that much consideration anyways - sorry guys, I still haven't found the green A button on my keyboard or mouse.
