Peeps aint gonna be happy with that.

AndrewRyan5604d ago

Meh. I could care less, it just means less sales for them.

MUHAHAHAHAAHAHA5604d ago

well said mate. why not give pc players a demo, have they got something to hide?....

Inside_out5604d ago

It's pretty simple really, People can Fly, the devs on this title are in fact PC devs. They were responsible for Gears 1 on PC and that is how Epic became involved with People can Fly. They are a very talented group of people and have actually added alot to the already solid Unreal game engine.

IMO...they don't want the high end specs of the PC version to take away from the awesome console version.

Looking forward to playing the demo...what so called hardcore gamer only games on PC anyways...lol.

@cez of rage

but why not give PC gamers a chance to try it out, its the equivalent of saying PC gamers don't matter to them and the fact that it comes from a company with its roots in PC is even more shameful.

Its offensive to me that PC gamers, whether they be "hardcore gamers" or not deserve the same consideration as the console gamers.

This is one game I am interested in but I know that I would not be sure unless I played it first hand, the PS3 demo will be fine but I would have rather played the PC version as if I decide to get the game that is the one I will go for.

evrfighter5604d ago

If pc gamers are interested in this title. They will try before they buy through other means. This time around I won't be tryin it simply because it doesn't appeal to me.

gillri5602d ago

Getting this game day one.Hope it's on steam though.

AndrewRyan5604d ago

it's confirmed to be on steam.

WetN00dle695604d ago

Well not really there will be a specific few that will "borrow" the title from certain places to try it out before buying. Thats an alternative, a bad one but hey there is nothing we can do about it. I for one will be getting BS for my 360 along side of KZ3. Cant wait!

Charmers5604d ago

Ah that is ok I have no plans to buy Bulletstorm. Epic are so out of touch with the PC community that I do not expect much from anything they produce on the PC. I will ensure my money goes to developers that actually WORK for it on the PC.

edoman205604d ago

Well ill get the "extended demo" and see if this POS will be worth getting

snaileri5604d ago

So they are forcing me to pirate the game so I can check how well the game runs on my rig.

Kran5604d ago

Its people like you that games that deserve sequels are never made.
Thats if you really are a pirater.

dark3555604d ago

Not really if he ends up buying the software. If anything, a demo should be on the pc first to ensure that everyone can run the game properly before actually purchasing it.

LunaticBrandon5604d ago

Its a big risk to just buy a game without trying it first. Especially if it turns out you can't run the game.

kramun5604d ago

This will make people need to pirate it Kran. A demo gives people a chance to see how it will run, if they don't offer a demo some people will have to take a gamble when they buy it if they can't try it out.

There's no reason why they couldn't make a demo for pc, it's either lazyness or they just don't give a toss. Maybe a bit of both. Either way it won't do them any favours with pc gamers.

Duty Calls - Epic Games' Forgotten Call of Duty Parody

Back in 2011, Epic Games and People Can Fly launched a Call of Duty parody - Duty Calls - that has been lost to the annals of history.

closed_account1068d ago

"Duty Calls: The Calm Before the Storm" sounds more like a massive case of the sh**s. 😂

I saw the parody mention, and half expected the ability to drop a deuce on your opponent... I left disappointed.

closed_account1066d ago

Never too much Taco Tuesday!! Now if only we could just achieve eternal Taco Tuesdays without the inevitable Wipe-It Wednesdays!!! 😂😂

Bulletstorm - A Cult Classic Worthy of Revival?

Bulletstorm will soon receive a VR remake, but is it worth revisiting? Take a look back at the original 2011 release.

IMissJimRyan1076d ago

Absolutely. I remember when the game came out on ps360, I thought: "wow, another shooter" and in the 7th gen that wasn't an unfair reaction.

But when the game was re-release on ps4 I took my time an played it (it was on playstation plus at the time) because, ironically, I missed a shooter in that console. And boy, what a fun game! They made a game to be played and not to be watched. It was a fresh air in the genre that deserved better.

So yes. Maybe it find its audience this time.

SullysCigar1076d ago

It's an awesome game. The only exception (for my taste) is the script writing, which is OTT, but I guess that's what they were going for. It does at least match the OTT action and gore. I thought it was great overall and actually being in this game is going to be bonkers!

IMissJimRyan1076d ago

Yeah, I agree that storywise it's not an Oscar nominee, but it's like a porn movie in game format.

Abnor_Mal1076d ago (Edited 1076d ago )

Agree with the over the top script, and felt at the time that was the only thing that people were hyped about, the language and not game play.

But in vr this game is going to be great. It has everything that would make a great vr game. Lots of bombastic action, gunplay, blood, and that leash.

Looking at the gameplay now it seems that the game was ahead of it’s time and was perfect for vr before vr wasn’t even off the ground.

Venoxn4g1076d ago

I loved the game back in the day and will love in VR even more!

Yui_Suzumiya1075d ago (Edited 1075d ago )

I got it on PS3 at launch and am still waiting for the long rumored sequel to finally be announced. Currently have it on Switch and wish a physical version of that would be released. Absolutely love it.

FinalFantasyFanatic1075d ago

I actually feel like this game gets revived all the time, not that I hate the game, I actually quite like it, it's just constantly available, unfortunately I'm not a fan of VR so I'll be skipping this version.

Bloodborne is a game I still restart and play every few months. I would welcome just a re release in 60fps with a visual upgrade. It's a perfect game. If I was king for a day I would include the randomizer mods because then it would be a kind of rogue like and I could play it forever.

danglyparts1111d ago

Sure, ill take a sequel to all of these.
