In reply to luigiix. Yeah. I mean, if money was no object then I'd consider dropping a couple hundred bucks on a console just to play one game, but alas my purchases are limited to the big price-drop on Steam, GoG, or whathave you. And it does seem that the PC is being considered more now for companies that focus on consoles. I think the PC success of Alan Wake had a lot to with that...

In reply to drachehexe. Hey that's cool man. I was only making a suggestion. But yeah, different strokes for different folks :D

In reply to luigiix. I will never ever own a console again in my entire life. If they feel they can live without my money, I can live without their games. But that's just me. My kids are playing Minecraft, a game with 20 year old graphics and gameplay on a $300 XBOX 360 and having a blast...go figure.

In reply to drachehexe. It might be a good idea to just get a PS3. I guess you're a PC-only gamer, but having a console along is never a bad idea :)

I had the same thought when I saw Lords of Shadows was coming to the PC: Will there be a Downpour port?

I’d love to see a PC port of Downpour as I, too, was disappointed they skipped the PC for a release. Silent Hill is the only series where I will buy every game in the series immediately on release. Even Homecoming had it’s redeeming values despite its technical and design flaws.

In a similar circumstance I wish Quantic Dream would get out of Sony’s pocket to once again bring their titles to the PC. They made a name for themselves on the PC and then sold out to Sony and now Sony only lets them develop for the PS3.

In reply to TsaebehT. There IS a PC version of 1! Well, not official, but someone made a PC version using a heavily modified Playstation emulator to specifically bring Silent Hill to the PC quite some time ago. Hard to find but it may be somewhere in the torrent world.

I wouldn’t mind seeing all the extras from the buggy HD releases of 2 & 3 get added to the original PC release as well. With the option to select which audio to use, of course.

In reply to Grif. There was no PC version of 1 ... and I played 2 & 3 using a controller on PC, the buttons were all mapped weird compared to the PS2 version but they could be remapped. The only other issue was the tank controls but you can also change that in the options to, iirc, 2D controls.

I played the PC versions of 1-4, they were god-awful control wise. Didn’t even support a game pad. If they can make the controls not absolutely horrendous, it could be worth it.

In reply to TsaebehT. Most families and gamers don't have time to build rigs, mod this and that etc. its too much of a hassle. Consoles are just more friendly and to the point.great you love yours but lets be realistic, the console is the focus
