PS3 but not 360? Normally I wouldn't care that much, but trying the demos Enslaved ran like shit on PS3 but fairly well on 360. Well, I guess PC should beat both readily anyway so it's not THAT big of a deal anyway, just kind of baffling.

Grief is truly the god of the PC port watch.

Why thank you good sir.

 

[FloatingDivider]

This game is great imo, the artwork is top notch. I finished it on 360 even with the shitty framerate and thoroughly enjoyed it. I also bought the pigsy dlc for 360 but I've never played that besides launching the game in 3D which was a dumb idea since the jaggies get even bigger then.

Did the PS3 release sell significantly more copies than the 360 version?

 

[EctoPrime]

I wonder if Sony paid for it to be console exclusive like Bioshock Ultimate Rapture edition in europe.

 

[Eusis]

Seems possible, that'd make the most sense outside of policy issues anyway.

Last gen, Oddworld Strangers Wrath was the game I felt bombed unfairly and deserved far more recognition. This gen it's definitely Enslaved. Though I played through on 360 years ago, I'd be up for a replay on PS3 if this is adequately priced. That said, used copies of the game go for as little as $5, so this would need significant new content to justify anything over $20.

 

[ramoisdead]

NEOGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAF strikes again!

Will definitely get the PC version since I didn't own any copy of Enslaved.

 

[Dragon1893]

I hope the PC port is decent, the game's artstyle deserves it. It'll probably be a rush job though.

It's U3E right? Should run really good.

I've actually have had Oddworld Strangers Wrath HD on my Steam wishlist for a long time. It just keeps getting pushed back, for the most part by Indie releases.

 

[notBald]

Typical, this is one of the few console exclusives I've played through.

I liked the art work, and the setting and story was nice up to the ending. I feel no urge to play it again though.

 

[Omega]

if only Grief was right about Halo 3

Spoiler

I still believe

 

[Bishop89]

What a weird combination.

 

[PedroPanache]

Ooh, now this is fantastic news. I really enjoyed the PS3 version despite the poor IQ and horrific framerate. To play this again in 1080p/60fps is going to be glorious. Not to mention the 3D option as well. DmC, Arkham Asylum & City and a few others look stunning running in 3D, so hopefully Enslaved will follow suit. This should help tide things over until you know what makes it to PC.

News on the Halo front has been delayed until 2014 unfortunately.

I just noticed the Polygon article actually links to this thread as a source as well, good on them

grief how do you live with yourself

always being so right

always spreading the believe

GFWL/SecuROM being removed from Bio2 and the Batman games was fortunate stroke of fate (please, WB, let me have my vanilla-flavoured desert), but everything else is just information regurgitated from the registry, which is going to happen far less going forward since subs marked as DevComp no longer publicly broadcast their actual names. Leaks can still occur through app names, of course, but this was a rare thing even before Valve cracked down a bit on registry snooping.

 

[Wario64]

grief can you bring gta v to steam next week

 

[Sapphire Dreams]

Frame rate was one of the biggest issues I had with the game, I hope it get fixed in the PC release and most importantly I hope I can tweak the camera so I could zoom out for a better view.

The leaks have essentially been plugged at this point, Valve has made it considerably more difficult.
At this point, most of the leaks are from developer mistake or looking over depot names to see what they are working on.

If only...if only.

Respectively, PC will be able to handle the framerates, ini fix for the camera level.

 

[dark10x]

It's U3E right? Should run really good.

I'm sure it will. Though just because something uses UE3 doesn't guarantee good performance (see Rise of the Triad).

 

[JaseC]

If only...if only.

I still firmly believe the following:

Max Payne 3 was R*'s test case for near-simultaneous releases, and given the game fell short of expectations the only message received was that "we" failed. I don't see [GTAV] releasing on the PC any sooner than 3 months after the console counterparts, and even that's likely to be a generous estimate.

 

[Smokey Mcpot]

Game had its problems, but overall I remember enjoying it alot, especially the art

Great news

 

[fantomena]

Please for the lov of god make the controllers better. I have ENslaved on PS3, but the controllers were so fucking shit it I never played it more than about 2 hours,

 

[Prince Vultan]

I wonder if Sony paid for it to be console exclusive like Bioshock Ultimate Rapture edition in europe.

Hwuh? Where did you get that from about Bioshock?

As I recall the 360 edition was simply a download only release in EU is all. Wouldn't make any sense for Sony to pay for a bundle of two multiplat games to only be available at retail on PS3. What's the benefit?

Also don't see the gain in doing similar with Enslaved. A re-release of a game no one bought in the first place? Hardly primo moneyhat real estate there...

 

[Mithos]

This game needs a HUGE patch on PS3, because it deteriorates in terms of performance the longer you progress in the game.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Will buy for 20~ at launch (for PC). This is a way late port which is likely not getting special treatment but I definitely liked the demo I played.

 

[JP]

It was a decent enough game even though it didn't really do anything special. I wonder if it's just going to contain that single piece of DLC or if they'll add new stuff now it's appearing on PC?

 

[BMX Bandit]

Really enjoyed the characters and environments in this game even if the gameplay wasn't that great. I'll grab it again on pc.

 

[Dictator93]

We, the PC Dick rider community, are getting a late console port?

Who would have thunk it?

 

[GameAddict411]

Isn't this a bit too late?

 

[SomethingInTheSea]

Will double dip on pc for better frame rate. Hope I can get my robot trip skin though.

 

[Marvel]

Totally double dipping for a PC version of this lovely game.

 

[ascii42]

Interesting. I've been meaning to pick this game up for a long time. I'll wait and see what this is.

 

[Jacob4815]

Why this release?

Maybe a sequel is coming?

 

[scitek]

It's funny how well it's actually ended up doing this generation on a platform it never was originally intended for (PlayStation).

 

[nbnt]

I'm double dipping fo sure. But only if the PC ver has better/higher res textures; those screenshots in the OP look hideous.

 

[kick51]

It was at this moment she realized her hair was made of earthworms

 

[Poetic.Injustice]

Great, Can we get Tekken on PC now Namco? :\

Instead you're giving us Naruto and this of all things.

 

[Dragon]

I had fun with the game, but yeah the framerate on PS3 was pretty bad a lot of the time.

 

[Fried Food]

Great game. Bet it will look super good

 

[Bundy]

What?
Why....?

 

[JaseC]

What?
Why....?

"Why not?" is the better question. Alan Wake was almost two years late to the PC yet made its development and marketing costs back in just two days, and Mortal Kombat PC took more than two years to arrive but has "sold huge".

 

[neoemonk]

Will buy this on Steam sale.

Probably what they are expecting/hoping for.

Yup. Every time there's a UE3 game that skips PC I laugh at the publishers' ignorance.

 

[synce]

YES! Finally this game will be done justice

 

[Madrugador]

Nice, always wanted to play the it on PC. Hope we get a reasonable price for a 3 year old game.

Price will probably be the same as castlevania. I hope they include the artbook that came with the SE.
