Eurogamer writes: "Zeno Clash developer ACE Team believes PC owners are "more open" to weird game concepts.
Speaking to Eurogamer, co-founder Carlos Bordeu said that may have been the reason Zeno Clash struggled on Xbox Live Arcade."
From article "Zeno Clash is an action/fighting game being developed by independent studio Aceteam in Chile. The game is said to use Valve's Source engine. Zeno Clash has no official release date set at this time."
"But I don't know that I'd put it as harshly as PC gamers are smart and console gamers are stupid."
This guy made me rofl , but he is a good man to be honest though and not lie because microsft handed him some cash.
All the weird games are released on PC to test the waters before they can be brought over to consoles, where they can be sold instead of pirated.
They are more open to weird game cause they are always on sale. I got a ton of weird games thanks to the Steam sales.
I don't mind playing something weird if it's also weird gameplay wise and I'm primarily a console gamer... all I play on my PC right now is the FFXIV beta and Starcraft 2. I won't play weird if it's weird because I'm shooting a cheese with legs because then it's just a shooter.
I agree to a point but I think XBLA/PSN and indie games are doing a good job of providing console gaming with just as many wierd games.
Braid, flower, flow and Limbo for example have done great on consoles. As well as games like dishwasher : dead samurai, which became very popular over the 360's indie games. There are a ton of examples to counter the one for zeno clash.
