For some reason, western RPGs aren't as appealing to me as Japanese ones, probably because I prefer anime-like sprites and brightly colored background... it's a shame that no companies are willing to bring over all those RPGs Falcom has made for PC over the past 7 years oversea...

KOEI should also consider localizing their RoTK series for PC here, they did that for PS2 with crappy resolution and complicated controls which can be executed with a few clicks of a mouse in the PC version...

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well I'd like to see how RE4 and DMC3 turn out on PC... Onimusha 3's port wasn't great, but it was fairly decent. I love to see console only games get ported to PC, they will definitely improve the variety we are limited to right now.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

For console games that got a ton of hypes before its release followed by a huge public disappointment hurts even more than PC games that don't get hyped but still have good sales...

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Black didn't sell that well, and games like DMC2 or FFCC sell because of the names they bear, not just the hype they receive. I don't recall DMC being hyped much before it's released, yet it sold millions.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
