So many times now I have thought this, why do developers who publish titles for both consoles and PC's always deliver the console game first, every time without fail I am left in anticipation waiting for the game to come out for PC when all my mates with playstation are getting to play the games allready. Some classic examples are Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 & 3 as well as Final Fantasy 8 and 9, hell who knows if they're ever going to release that one for PC, but they did for FF8 so why not 9, I'm still waiting for Tony Hawk 3 on PC, this game looks absoulutley fantastic and I am looking forward to it more than I was for Black and White (Lets hope that THPS3 is not an anti-climax as B&W was :-) )
Anyway, I digress, I want to know why PC gamers get games months later than console gamers, more people have PC's than consoles so why should they be made to wait upwards of a year to get their hands on what is mostly going a very similar copy to the console game (with a few extra features obviously)?

Why do u think Microsoft have made the X-box. Because they were losing out to consoles. =B0p
because it is easier to devolpe games for consoles, and you dont have to worry about it not working on some consoles like with pcs
Good Point. I want GTA3 for my computer and THPS3. I think they probably touch up the graphics in between release dates or add extras. It would be nice if they released Simpsons Road Rage on the PC as well, seeing as the Gamecube isn't coming out for a while.
