    Default Why are PC gamers getting the short stick to good titles these days

    I'm an avif pc gamer and also have an xbox 360 second gen, i love collectors Ed games and my most recent one was Injustice gods among us, now we lost out on an awesome Col ed for GTA 5 cos pc gamers got left in the dark muddy swaps of gaming again, now it's batman arkham origins i go arkham cit col ed and it was a good buy, wanted the col ed on pc, guess what no col ed on pc and the xbox versions were sold out even before they were advertised. PC gamers lose out on so many good things and i think we spend the most money when it comes to games and so on, come on guys don't make us look like some random kid begging for more at a soup kitchen

    I think your keyboard might be broken, or are you typing with a controller perhaps?

    Apart from PC versions of games having some serious delays, I don't really know what you're complaining about.

    You need to return the keyboard, cause I see your [Shift] key, isn't working either

    As for why there is a lack of collectors editions on PC's, I guess its the fact that more and more people buy PC games online instead of buying at brick and mortar shops. <- That cause the problem that its hard to gauge what sells and how much is enough.

    Last thing you wanna do is have something that expensive sitting in your warehouse gathering dust, esp if you have to pay extra for shipping & import. Its not like disks that you can cut locally.

    i dont know about collectors editions on pc but what i do now is thta i am angry beceause people make games for console and them porrt them for pc this is ridiculous as the control scheme is always bvetter when used with kb and mouse but!......... it is made for stupid controllers and then our lovely kb and mouse suffer because the ui is so large and cumbersome with people that only use a few byttons.,, look at skyrim for example it has to have mods to make the ui nice on pc but that s the nice thing about pc is that it can support many mods for the pc.

    Wow guess you bunch aren't really gamers, seeing as everyone is more concerned bout grammar than games, and that's why pre-orders are such a nice thing. If there is a col ed then you know how much to order but that's just me. somewhere out there someone else has the same meaning as me.

    The title you used is horribly misleading.
    You are complaining about collectors editions.

    Where I thought you were going to complain about GTA V not being on PC... I think on the net alone there are at least a million posts about that.

    TL: DR
    Suck it up, sonny.

    COLLECTORS EDITION.

    Goodness, what on fking earth is a col ed, sounds like tool for performing enemas.

    Also here have some of these, since you seem to need them.

    .................................................. .................................................. ..............................

    As for collectors editions, I don't recall a game where there was a collectors edition on console and not on PC. To be honest though I consider collectors editions to be a waste of money and if the game is actually good enough to warrant collecting something then there are usually far better items than those you receive in those over-priced bundles.
