    New C&C Game for PC ONLY!?!

    This isn't fair but what can I do? I was always a fan of C&C and I used to play Yuri's Revenge, generals, etc on PC but ever since newer games required better computers, I switched to Console and got an xbox360. And now I figure the newest C&C game is coming out for PC only?! Honestly, as great as PC is for RTS games, this still isnt fair to the Xbox360 community. There ARE RTS CONSOLE GAMERS out there FYI. And most of them would LOVE to play C&C. Whatever, guess this is one less C&C game to buy (never mind considering the fact that I can't even buy it).

    I think it isn't unfair because there are exclusives for every platform. As a PC user, this would be like complaining that there are console exclusive games even though equivalents in other franchises are out for PC as well.

    Of course, there are no console exclusive games that PC gamers don't have access to.

    Edit: Kyang'd

    Edit 2: Also, when games are multiplatform, the PC version tends to suffer because it's restrained by the console versions. Gameplay gets dumbed down to suit console controllers and the console mindset, graphics are adjusted towards inferior hardware specifications etc. So, sorry, but it's hard to sympathise there.

    Iduno I'm just really not in the happiest mood right now... I've been playing C&C my whole life and now it ends here... (except recently C&C 4 was horrible so I didn't care)

    Not that you could.....it wasn't released on console.......

    Though many of us wish it was a console exclusive in its own right.........

I would LOVE for the Radial Interface to go up against a PC gamer and see who actually has the advantage.
    See cross format support just isnt feasible for CnC tbh. It would cost a load more money to make patches for consoles, and release them, it just doesnt make fiscal sense. This is why that will never happen. Thought it would be good the expense in such a thing is not worth it.

    Also PC players would have the upper hand all the time as they can focus on several things at once........

    yap, a console spin-off without messing with tiberian storyline ("epic" conclusion), that would be much bearable than what we have now.
