so you guys are not looking for any refresh whatsoever? i think most PC gamers should be sick by now with games that "saves the fantasy world of xyz " and games that "saves the world of terrorists and aliens".

thats where a face palm is needed. when they actualy go and make a PC game, they will just do your everyday RPG. there hits stay on the console, and they may leak main stream stuff from time to time, just to kill time i guess.

Generally I think it's because the PC is viewed as a more adult entertainment platform where as the console is viewed as more childish. This is why generally you see their more adult oriented games (read H-Games and Dating Sims) on the PC while the consoles get games with more of a western play style (Action, RPG, the more common genres.)

so is it a known fact that they use PCs for shady stuff? this Bayonetta game is labeled "18".

NOoo japanese culture is the best.

I wasn't really a fan of the JRPG play style but the art was just amazing, i wish they did make more quality games for PC, even if it was just for the amazing artwork.

Final Fantasy 14 (which is the online one) looks like it could be amazing! Speaking from visuals only XD

I find it weird that Japanese artists conceptualize white people as skinny people with huge colored hair. But then again I find everything from the Japanese weird. Tentacle porn? Dickgirls? Disgusting.

Be happy to know Final Fantasy XIII is coming out not just on consoles, but on the PC platform as well. This is this generation's most anticipated jRPG, and the first true numbered iteration in the Final Fantasy franchise siince the start of this gaming generation. Look forward to it Q1 2010. Until then, enjoy your Dragon Age Origins / Witcher Enhanced for wRPG flavour. Or go back and play FFVII /FFVIII on PC.

FF13 isn't coming to PC. Well, at least that is what SE said after a supposed misunderstanding. The could always bring it in the future though, especially since they say with the tools they are using to develop it, its already running on PC...(maybe the case for all console games though, don't really know about the usual tools used to create console games)

Surprisingly,it was a very good port...but play it with a controller(preferably X360 controller for windows).

It´s worth a try.

Metal Gear solid franchise is Japanese. Konami anyone?

They need to bring the whole series to PC imo, not just Rising.

Well Capcom has taken steps towards PC gaming. RE5, SF4, DMC4, Bionic Commando and Lost Planet all came to PC this gen, and Dead Rising 2 seems to as well. Outside that it's been a bit quiet, but Rising should bring MGS back to PC, FFIV might encourage them to port FF13 over as well.

I think the main problem is that there simply isn't much audience for these games on PC compared to consoles, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. But some slip through the cracks every now and then. For games like Bayonetta I'd look into DMC4, X-Blades, Ninja Blade. Lot fo these are ported later so it's not impossible for Bayonetta to make it to PC too.

Is Darksiders being made by them jips? If yes then they are indeed a-holes because I'd love to play this game on the PC. I'm also pissed about them never releasing any Front Mission games for the PC (the latest shooter thing doesn't count) but releasing their Final Fantasy garbage which most people with at least 3 functioning brain cells don't give a rat's ass about. Don't care about bayonetta, it looks dumb as hell.

Tradition. Back in the 90ties they viewed Consoles as the entertainment machines in regards of videogames while Computers were for work, due to their large love for tradition that hasn't changed much. Thus also why there are so few Japanese developers that export games to the West.
