Insomniac did say something like wanting to give us the best-looking games possible on consoles and that 60 FPS gets in the way of that.
He's saying that backwards compatibility isn't an issue on PC and that you can essentially play older games in higher fidelity as time goes on, getting rid of the need for HD remasters that you have to rebuy.
EDIT: Also, Insomniac has never made a PC game before(unlike Crytek and Capcom), which I think makes this port a lot less likely.
Yep, OP speaks the truth. Still, I don't expect anything for many months, but it's nice to know it will show up.

Years ago when games started to become Origin exclusive people said "this will kill the game, no one will buy it", now days we know this isn't true.
Saying a game is dead because it requires Origin is just wrong, it affects the sales of the games sure (I'd be stupid to claim a steam release wouldn't increase sales), but it doesn't affect the amount of people playing as much as you think/claim it does.
A real shame. 60fps makes the game look better in my eyes. In motion, of course. In promotional screenshots of course the game will look much better if they are working around 30fps.

Welp.
If this is true, I'm just going to wait for it to hit PC. I would double dip, but there are too many other games on my radar right now and I gotta capitalize on my assets lol
Steam Cards pls

It's up to insomniac.
Well, that and D4.
Downloaded it as I couldn't get it to work on browser. Seems like it could happen but it almost seems like a mistake because with DR3/Ryse the PC announcement took a while to come. Won't be surprising if it happens.
Hypothetically, if MS were to keep doing this, they may as well instigate a Steamplay type of service and allow users to own the game on MS platforms wherever. They seem happy with the singular OS idea, why not expand that to products as well to enhance consumer value. Their mobile first cloud first mentality could even push for streaming via azure. Most likely something like all that would attach to an Xbox Live fee I'd bet, but it is one way of driving home value to customers and having them locked into MS platforms.
Oh, true that.

So many people here own everything it seems. Next-gen consoles PLUS a fat PC. Seems like overkill at this point. You shouldn't be disappointed when there is some overlap.

Pretty much. Letting developers keep the IP is all well and good but, the end result, is that you, as a platform holder, really have no say over where that IP could end up next. Sony got burned on things like Crash and Spyro, they learned a long time ago.
Yes it does. Graphics are very underwhelming as well.
I won't lose sleep over it remaining exclusive to Xbox One.
The game could hugely benefit from 60fps though, the gameplay I've seen looks plain at 30fps.
I've wanted to make a thread about a similar idea(but a bit different).
Lol huh?

Hope the new Ratchet on PS4 is 60fps, Nexus was 30fps and didn't look better than A Crack in Time at 60fps.

All exclusives are money driven. There's always going to be a reason for them. It's not always a bad thing, Bayonetta 2 wouldn't have got made without being a money driven exclusive, as a recent example.
And Insomniac are console developers. With Dead Rising 3 and Ryse, those devs had PC experience. I think it would be a *lot* more surprising to see Insomniac voluntarily putting out a PC port. I would be less surprised to see a PS4 version at some point, honestly.
Yes. I am still physically incapable of playing a Ratchet game at 30fps. Insomniac better pull this shit off
I mean, it'll probably be just as surprising as when they signed a deal with EA and put out a game on a non Sony platform for the first time last year.

With the PS4 and XB1 both...essentially being Laptop-esque hardware in a shiny case ?
Not at all, I´d hazard a guess that porting from and to PC has never been easier than this gen, even for a studio without any PC roots.
Cheers for getting the swf dude
Added to OP.I wouldn't gain anything from lying about this
I was just having a read of the news when it popped up, almost closed it before I spotted the PC wording and went "wait a minute...". Searched on GAF and saw no other mention of it so took a screeny. That said, I imagine it's some kind of screw up, maybe a template they used and left the PC wording in. But a PC version is always possible. Interesting nevertheless.There is a direct link to the ad available just a few posts up.

Gotta go slow.
Yes but Insomniac own the Ip so...
lol. 5 million for an exclusive at this early stage of gen. They won't even get that even on the PS4.
This has to be fake.

Lol find the suprise. People will tell be here to inform you soon.
I can confirm this. My uncle works for Nintendo and told me so.
They're making a PC game right now. 4-5 man indie quality game in Unity.
PC to Xbox One is apparently easy for indie developers. I imagine XB1 to PC would be cake for them.

pretty sure there was a "only on xbox one" label on the case. dick move
Yup... Its not about just competing with sony and steam
Its about pushing windows 10... on both pc and living room devices, Competing with android and apple phones/tablets and competing for the living room entertainment hub with all tv ApS etc
I think ur going to see the xbone UI on a lot more devices once dx12 and windows 10 are out
If a pc can boot up into xbone UI, let me navigate using a controller and kinect for windows... Let me party up with anyone on Xbox live, let me purchase and play battlefield 5 and gears of war collection etc... I think that would be all my entertainment stuff in one place if U count all the other tv apps etc on Xbox live
I was marginally interested in this game, but not so much that I was considering buying it, at least not at launch. A PC release would kick it up a notch or two, but still probably wouldn't mean I'd buy it. However, I'm not convinced on the advertisement alone, I think at this point it is just a mistake.
Battlefield 4 - also on Origin.
