If the game comes to PC, I would think it would be on the Windows Store and probably not Steam.

There is a lot of Microsoft Studios games on Steam (Max the curse of brotherhood, Dust an elysian tail, state of decay, ...).

But yeah if they want to promote their store they have to put games on it.

 

[TomShoe]

Awesome, I wouldn't be surprised if sales increased significantly because of this move.

 

[alr1ght]

Locking this to Windows Store is just another way to kill any sales/hope for new episodes.

 

[fantomena]

No Steam, no buy.

I'm thinking they are likely to allow purchases on steam but will have a client or just the operating system level forcing you to use their services regardless of where the purchase - but that would be windows 10, not good old windows 7

 

[striferser]

Swery, don't play with my heart :_:

So GFWL 2.0

 

[Orayn]

I don't see why people think MS will suddenly shift to an extremely heavy-handed strategy when they're already friendly with Steam. Future stuff they publish on PC will probably wind up like Halo: Spartan Assault where there are both Steam and Windows Store versions.

If they're already giving away Windows 10 for free, they're not going to resort to holding indie games hostage to try and force people to switch.

 

[robotrock]

So bought

gifts too

Windows store is still months away, much like Ori I would imagine it would release on Steam.

 

[fluffydelusions]

I feel like the thread title should be changed to just retweet if you want this game on PC now.

 

[Uraizen]

"You could buy it on Steam if you wanted, but if you bought it on Xbone then you can play it right now on your PC!"

The whole cross-buy thing they were talking about earlier.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Maybe I missed the announcement but are they revamping Windows store or something? There is already a store on Windows 8

 

[Tain]

Neat. It's a great game.

 

[CHC]

Well I remember them saying how poorly it did in sales... A PC release could at least help them break even if the situation really is that bad. I know I'd get it out of curiousity - Deadly Premonition is sitting in my Steam library right now.

 

[Corpekata]

Maybe I missed the announcement but are they revamping Windows store or something? There is already a store on Windows 8

Yes. Relaunching with Windows 10 given Windows 8 store has been a pretty big failure.

The Windows 10 store is going to sell full desktop applications (integrated into XBL) ala Steam when it releases later in the year. It will not be limited to RT compatible apps like the Win 8 store.

 

[Japanmanx3]

And this would be how is play it. And I don't even play pc games.

Ah alright

 

[xzeldax3]

Hell yes I would buy this so hard! I don't know if I'll ever get a XB1 so I was bummed about missing out on this.

 

[Clawww]

fuck yes

 

[Orayn]

Welp Swery retweeted me holding money up to my monitor. Exposure!

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

How was this game on XB1? I wad interested in it, but forgot about it.

 

[grap3fruitman]

Niche indie title? PC seems like an obvious home. They'd be dumb not to. Even if it wasn't a success initially, the assets are already made and a PC port would be an easy return on a small investment.

 

[John Rabbit]

would buy so fast if this happened.

 

[LiK]

it'll end up on PC eventually. Xbox One exclusives my ass

 

[GrantDaNasty]

Welp Swery retweeted me holding money up to my monitor. Exposure!

He likewise favourited my tweet about giving him money if it landed on PC

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Already have it on Xbox One, but I also have Deadly Premonition on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC, so naturally I'd buy this too if it comes to PC. Gotta support SWERY!!

 

[Aquamarine]

Do it, and I'll instantly buy it the moment it comes out.

You have my money if you'll do it, Swery.

 

[Jazzkokehead]

If this came to PC, I'd definitely buy it.

 

[Buzzman]

Holy shit, the one title that made me actually consider buying an xbox one for, is probably coming to PC? FUCKING YES

 

[Scrub Mcgrubb]

Don't you need a Kinect to play the game? Yeah... I'll pass

 

[def sim]

Don't you need a Kinect to play the game? Yeah... I'll pass

You absolutely do not.

 

[GrantDaNasty]

Don't you need a Kinect to play the game? Yeah... I'll pass

Kinect controls are optional in the final game. You can play through it all with a controller.

 

[Orayn]

Don't you need a Kinect to play the game? Yeah... I'll pass

It's not. Swery insists that it's better with Kinect, but you don't need it.

 

[LiK]

Don't you need a Kinect to play the game? Yeah... I'll pass

nope

 

[a secret-boss]

Don't you need a Kinect to play the game? Yeah... I'll pass

when you make an ignorant post you end up looking like a moron

 

[MillionStabs]

Oh God Swery, please do this.

 

[MUnited83]

If the game comes to PC, I would think it would be on the Windows Store and probably not Steam.

Microsoft publishes quite a few games on Steam. This not really one of the games where they would benefit my makint it exclusive to Windows Store at all.

 

[fluffydelusions]

He favorited my tweet as well yay

 

[thehillissilent]

I will buy it if/when it comes on Steam. It would be dumb to hold this exclusive to Windows 10 store. This game needs the sales.

 

[Momentary]

What notable games are even Windows 10 exclusive?

 

[Twin Tails]

I've done my part.

he retweeted, lol. Everyone follow him on twitter, even if you have no clue who he is. He even follows back. He's awesome

 

[LiK]

[MendicantBS]

Swery posted this thread on twitter. Do season 2 first, then port it.
Better idea, do both. Please!

Now we just need Phil to notice us...

damnit MS greenlight season 2!

 

[TheSeks]

If it isn't like Deadly Premonitions PC port, I'd consider it. But after that ones PC port... I'm leery about any PC ports from him/outsourced.

 

[Parsnip]

Make it so.

 

[Jotamide]

Oh please, be cross-buy. I grabbed this with GwG not too long ago.

 

[Yudoken]

Don't you need a Kinect to play the game? Yeah... I'll pass

Better without Kinect
