Dead Space 3 for PC Is a Direct Console Port

Article.

Well, not really suprising.

Will still be a good game, but a little dissapointing.

Will probably mean it will run like butter tho on lower end hardware.

``Players will be able to toggle a few custom graphics options, but there won't be any support for things like DirectX 11 or high-resolution textures.``

oh dear !

And this is why I don't spend mega bucks upgrading my PC.

the good thing is :- there are loads of games due out this year, so ignoring DEAD SPACE 3 wont matter

What isnt these days.

How is this different to the other 2 games in the series?. This news is hardly a surprise. I'll still buy it regardless as I enjoyed the others.

"Will still be a good game".

Err no

People will still buy it and hence the cycle of crappy ports continue.

RedStarRiot · 23 Jan 2013 at 22:11

But if you enjoyed the other 2 games this news is not going to matter really as they were far from pc optimised. However in my opinion it's a cracking series. The bigger concern for me is the micro transactions but it's funny how "console port" is the big worry on here.

It's an EA published game, wouldn't expect anything more than a direct port on PC.

bainbridge · 23 Jan 2013 at 22:47

So I guess that means the controls will be dire again?

That's a shame. Hoping bioshock isn't a console port!

Bioshock looks odd, too weird, plus too much Vertico, i'm after R6 Patriots

I thought this was the main reason for releasing new consoles, to see a fairly big leap in graphics? Unless taking a diif direction e.g Wii?

great graphics on new consoles?

it'll still be 4 years behind a top end rig today

As long as we get the option for in game purchases just like the console versions it's all good. :rolleyes:

Phatzy · 23 Jan 2013 at 23:58

I've enjoyed the last two games never had a problem with controls with a keyboard and mouse. i dont give a crap about any sort of multiplayer or dlc stuff etc so that is not getting a look at, But i will buy the third installment if it has the same style of single player experience.

Being a direct console port usually means you need ten times the hardware to run it had it been developed alongside for PC, I can't see how this will be any different. :confused:
