Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Man, what is it with the internet getting shit done lately?
Japanese PC gaming and hentai go together like peanut butter and a teenager being sodomized by tentacles.

Hopefully the PC sales are huge so when/if a sequel launches it will be day and date with the console versions and is patched as frequently as needed.

Mmmm, amazing chest ahead the whole game would be wonderful, plus the bonus challenge of a 1hp run lol.
The PC version turning into any kind of "lead platform" would be amazing.
The series going from PS3 exclusive, to multiplatform on consoles, to PC lead would be a great story.

What happens when you 'like' it? I don't have a fb so I can't check... Lame...
You just see a picture of a brick wall that will probably fade away the more 'likes' they get. It's probably just on a timer though.

I was thinking some sort of Myst-like adventure game as a prequel/side-story to Dark Souls would be a great way for them to kick off Android/iOS development and show off their skill at creating atmosphere and scenery porn in the process.
And a highly unlikely one. It would need to be huge on PC to justify that.
Day and date PC version would be nice though.
Awesome, all you PC players better buy this and play the hell out of it now.
Though it's quite plausible that a Steam version would get patched sooner and more frequently than 360 and PS3 due to lack of certification process.
I'm predicting an Alan Wake scenario where it breaks even in a timely fashion, followed by a steady trickle of sales plus thousands of new souls every time it gets discounted.

Double dipping in 3, 2, 1...
Don't see that happening but Day and Date with Consoles seems likely. If they can get it on Steam to just out the piracy, it should do well. Anything else and those dirty pirates and hackers will utterly ruin it.
Level DLC would be a nice addition but I would love some other additions like Boss Rush mode, 4v4 Arena mode etc.
Also, I hope From save a Dark Souls 2 announcement and release it next year when the 720 appears. 720 and PC version...Boom!
This. I was one of the new souls that discovered Alan Wake on PC. Absolutely amazing game, but I didn't even really know it was hitting PC beforehand. This game, on the other hand, has a petition backing with thousands of sigs and is about as nerdcore as they come. It will recoup its porting costs in no time, no doubt. And it will sell by the bucketloads on any given Steam sale as well.
Day-yum. Bring it!

Those are petty. It will be glorious on PC. Unshackled.
Reading those Facebook comments reminds me something I often forget posting here at NeoGAF: There are system fanboys out there.
(I'm sure there are some here too, but for the most part it seems like everyone can at least appreciate the effort that goes into games on other systems.)

Once you have accumulated enough tears, I will Invade and Kill you and then spend those tears to level up.
Unshackled is definitely the right word. The Dirt series shows that Phyre looks really, really good with the settings cranked.
Well PCPowerPlay is a PC exclusive magazine, so I doubt they'd run an article about a non PC platform getting Dark Souls...
Is that image of the magazine confirmed to be real?
It was originally posted by someone who works for the magazine.
Welp, that's good enough for me then.
Man, I wonder what the requirements will be. If by some miracle my PC should run it I'll definitely double dip.

I'll be using a controller. M/KB DS sounds pretty bad.

PC version for the love of GOD!.
Someone hold me!

Wouldn't be too bad if they made it treat you as being locked on to the center of the screen.
Same, if I can run it, I shall double dip... maybe. I've turned into a wuss.
In this rare case, M/KB is a worse option than a Controller.
I think it's fantastic that more people will be able to play this great game, but at the same time, if it's just a straight PC port I'd be a little disappointed "as a fan" personally. Needs to have some added content that will filter down to the PS360 versions as well.
I'm hoping for a new experience that will bring me back to Dark Souls, because after 140 hours I've moved onto something else and just making a version that run better on a PC isn't going to do that.

I somewhat agree with Sam Rockwell.
Artbook would be lovely, Dark souls has an amazing bestiary!
