Capcom PC games usually are really well priced at launch already. If you buy the boxed copy from the UK.

I don't want the ghetto console HD version either.
I want a straight GC visuals port (best lighting/textures, no HD version fuckups) with all content and a functional 60 fps.

Steamworks basically seals the deal on this. Now, let's hope it's not full price at release. The demo was a fun romp with a friend online. I thought it was much better than 5 in terms of the setting so I'm leaning on getting this for PC as well.

I think my PC is ready. I played the demo on PS3, and some parts ran like shit. This release should fix a lot of RE6's problems.

I'm disappointed this is being ported by a third party Polish studio and likely it won't be enhanced with DX10+ stuff (also the requirements suggest this), as Capcom was doing when they were making the PC ports in house (LP1&2, DMC4, RE5).
Is there any source on this? I haven't heard a few claims that qloc is working on the RE6 port, but I haven't seen any source on the info.
QLOC did the PC versions of SFIV:Arcade Edition and SFxTekken which were great ports IMO. (Design problems in SFxTekken aside, haha.)
And the DX10 stuff basically meant very little in practice.
Sven said so on the Capcom forum.
QLOC is doing RE6, finishing up DmC and the SFxTekken patches/DLC.
QLOC getting that work.
They also ported Operation Raccoon City, which supposedly had a really poor PC version. But it might have been mainly the engine's fault.

Yep...when it hits $5 during a steam sale
I like how it specifically avoids mentioning whether or not the PC version will get the same paid DLC. It only says FREE content. Not paid. That was the problem with RE5 PC, it didn't get all the content.
I don't think RE5 has ever been that low. It's been on sale but not for $5.
I think the emphasis is more on "free" part there. I.e. there's likely to be more paid DLC in the future.

Yeah, I'll probably buy at 50% off or something. I'd have no problem purchasing at full price but the game tbh does not look very good.
Problem is even Street Fighter X Tekken doesn't have everything available. So Capcom doesn't have a nice track record with this stuff.

Yeah, I just found the post now. I'm not sure if it this is good or bad news. I guess it's good in the way that QLOC might be more willing to do post-game release, but bad in the way that it's another sign that Capcom Japan isn't very willing to do anything PC related. It also means the RE6 port will most likely get no exclusive content.
Steam page is up: http://store.steampowered.com/app/221040/
Screenshots are there. Don't know if they're from the PC.
But Lol at the first shot being an angled Ada cleavage shot.

Steam page has been up awhile. Put it on my wishlist the day I noticed it.
ah, ok cool.

The SF titles are far more "simple" than RE6. Also, for the record RE:ORC is not a good/properly enhanced port.
About the DX10/11 stuff I beg to differ. LP1&2 had pretty noteworthy improvements and I was eagerly looking forward to see a MTF based 2013 DX11 title.

Ferrari Legends just came out on PC/Steam and it's GFWL, such a disappointment -.-

It would be cool if Capcom went back to remove GFWL from Resident Evil 5 and include Steamworks like some other developer did to their game. Or maybe even release the Gold edition that never made it and put it with Steamworks. I would buy it for sure.
With 6 being announced today, i finally gave in and just bought Resi 5 Gold on PS3

Was free on PS+ for awhile, lol.
I'll take a guess.
1. The sequence in which Chris and Piers flee from Haos: more forgiving in terms of time
2. The sequence in which Ada flees from the flooding submarine: more forgiving in terms of time
3. Leon and Helena's boss battle: makes it easier to get the boss to absorb the lightning rod

This is far from the worst one in the game.
Should have posted the awful rope climbing one from Leon's campaign.

I posted this in the Windows 8 thread. It covers your question, I believe.

You would have to pay me to take it.
I rented it a few weeks ago and couldn't even get through Leon's campaign. Worst game of 2012.
I'm content just ogling the PC screenshots thread, like a model with a venereal disease.

Cool.
Now Capcom needs to bring Dragon's Dogma and its upcoming expansion to Steam.

Leon's campaign is the best part of the game. HAHAHAHAHA.
It goes substantially downhill from there.
Still better than Medal of Honor: Warfighter, though. THAT'S the worst game of 2012.
I'd cast that from memory... a mate and I co-op'd the game on the PS3 and it took us a good 20-odd minutes to reach the top.
Qloc is working on something else beside DMC, and this is not RE6 (they did not port RE5).
The lack of Dragon Dogma and UMvC3 are puzzling, it would cost nothing to them to port, at least the marvel game

I'll be getting this along with resi 5 gold finally.
I'll assume that the KBAM controls will be shit?

Wow, I thought these comments about the QTEs would just be hyperbole, but that is really bad.
That is basically my plan.

Different company handling the port this time, but RE5 has terrible M/Kb controls on PC.

I'll offer the dissenting opinion that Leon's campaign is the best part of the game because I like shooting zombies again. I played it first, so all the things that suck about the game hadn't bothered me yet.
Makes you wonder what their motivation was in the first place.
IIRC, even if you know where they are, it's not possible to locate the keys immediately; you have to work your way through the "investigation" as intended.
I think they just wanted what was simplest (they made an Xbox version, use the GFWL stuff that shares code!). In fact, I suspect they'd STILL do that but Stumpokapow probably hit the mark in that it "doesn't exist anymore": I suspect Microsoft has decided to flat out REFUSE any more games becoming GFWL and has instead told developers/publishers to either make them Windows 8 games or do something else instead. Thus, Steamworks taking in the stragglers.
That sounds totally plausible.
So Dark Souls: Prepare to Die is the last GFWL release? I dunno, I haven't played one since then.
As Glass Rebel mentioned earlier, the belated PC port of Ace Combat: Assault Horizon will use it.
Given how damn late that is I do wonder if that may be a pre-existing arrangement. I think if we see something newer with GFWL we'll know for sure.
