No need to buy a Gamecube now...

[Jorian Drake]

I hate consoles anyway :D

[Darque]

Wow, they're getting desperate.

Nothing wrong with this. People who may have had an interest in the games before but did not have the consoles will now be able to play the games. Hopefully, each conversion will make some use of the hardware it's going to be ported to, although I'm not expecting much beyond superior resolutions.

Your right.

 

I'm buying RE4 for sure.

 

I don't plan to run it of my monitor though, ported console games always look a bit off running of a monitor.

And playing console ports with keyboard and mouse is generally difficult. So, i will buy a, Gamecube style controller(pretty similar design) for my computer.

Aren't there some kind of UBS converters for Gamecube controllers?

 

I have one for my PS2 control, handles really well in emulation.

My Logitech Dual Action gamepad usually does a great job when it comes to providing accurate and smooth control for console-based videogames on my PC.

Yes there is a converter.

If you have a PS2, then why are you looking for the PC version. Just buy PS2 version.

That's the best statement I heard you say. You're not bad after all.

[mkreku]

I can imagine Resident Evil 4 becoming too easy with mouse controls. But other than that it's a great idea! Let's hope they've saved the high resolutiuon textures fromwhen they made the game. Usually when a game is converted from Gamecube/Playstation 2 to PC, the textures look really washed out and.. dull.

[Darque]

Wow, they're getting desperate.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

How is that getting desparate? I see it as reaching a broader audience.

RE4 was meant to be a gamecube exclusive consolewise.

Then because of their financial problems Capcom broke their agreement and ported it to the PS2.

 

I guess they're still hurting for cash to port these games now.

 

In the past they always released each version at the same time, and their agreement with Nintendo wouldn't have prevented them from making a PC game at the same time as the GC version.

 

Thus, I'm guessing they know they're screwed and are desperately trying to correct that.

[Moose]

Resident Evil 4 was never going to stay exclusive to Gamecube. It's bloody pro.

[Darque]

not really the point though.

[Moose]

What isn't?

[karka]

I was about to buy a Gamecube for that game. I think, this pc port is bad for Nintendo and good for me...

[Moose]

Nintendo has indeed been royally screwed.

I doubt your lack of purchase will bother them as badly as you think

It will. Another lost sale amongst many they do not have.

Hey, c'mon! Nintendo even can't afford production costs of Revolution without my money. Don't be surprised if you can't see Revolution. "

If you haven't already bought a GameCube to play this game, I doubt you ever would have.
