Yes, PC will most likely get a port from the PS4 version.
Well, my PC and console are hooked on my TV. It's not hard at all, actually.

As long as it is coming to PC, I will be happy. Bring on the UE4 powered spiritual successor to Policenauts and Snatcher, co-directed by Del Toro.

Yep, allowed me to play Titanfall last year.

More games are coming out on PC as well is all I'm saying.
Next to zero, they don't have the time or funding to pump R&D into another new engine I imagine.

The PC in my house is like one storey below my gaming TV so it's pretty hard for me.
He is completely right. Sony get a free ride for shit like this.
Even nintendo got shit for having bayonetta 2 exclusive and if it werent for them, the game wouldnt have been made!
Or you could 'just get' a PS4.

Nice grab Sony!
Disappointed it is not multiplatform, but very happy Kojima is getting another chance with a fantastic company at that.

Everyone is in a different situation though. For some it's very simple, for others such as me, not really.
The whole thing around Bayonetta 2 was ridiculous. There was so much rage, but it came from unreasonable people. Sony has the same kind of deal going with SF5. The deals that MS have been lambasted for are fundamentally different, such as RotTR.

UE4 has struck a high note with high profile Japanese developers. Whoever is at Epic that is selling to the Eastern Developers of the world is doing a damn fine job.

No one gets a free ride. Its just some console warrior bullshit about making exclusive list wars. When Nintendo does it, Xbox/PS/PC fans will be upset. When Sony does it, Nintendo/Xbox/PC fans will be upset. When Microsoft does it, Nintendo/PS/PC fans will be upset.
Jesus Christ thats embarrassing.
The carnival of stupid is indeed cyclical.

Juicy tidbits here. Interesting Sony is publishing but will still do a PC release, although these days I guess thats not out of the ordinary for them.
More importantly though, Kojima's next game will be "something completely new". Now that makes me giddy

Great news but it's going to be a painful wait knowing we are years away from playing it.

Nintendo didn't deserve shit. Microsoft did because they paid a publisher to keep a game off their rivals platform. If Tomb Raider couldn't have been made without Microsoft, people would mostly feel differently.

The bottom-line is that for Kojima, the ideal landing spot was a place where he'd have a similar level of freedom and control, with the resources to make the sorts of games that KojiPro usually make. And you really are only going to get that through working with one of the platform-holders.
Partnering with Sony makes sense on so many levels. There's already a built-in comfort and familiarity there.

How is this even a moneyhat? This is a new studio and a new IP. No one is taking anything away from anybody. It's also likely that Kojima went straight to Sony in the first place.
Or is every new studio/IP required to go multiplat, lest it be a "moneyhat?"
And just because Nintendo undeservedly "got shit" from a few uninformed angry fanboys doesn't make it justifiable or okay to do it to them or Sony (or MS).
I don't think Kojima would have had a problem finding funding to make this game. Sony isn't some magical white knight coming to save him.

So this thread about great news is a pc superiority /pc vs ps4 thread now. Great.
PC doesn't even need a big entity behind itself to push it, it has all the support it could ever need in every thread on every single forum on the Internet.
And now on neogaf too, big time.
It used to be different here...
It did?
Wonder if these people consider Scalebound a moneyhat too.

Something completely new is indeed cool. Sony also said they don't view PC as a rival platform per se, and there's a massive audience on PC. I still feel that unless Kojima teams up with Del Toro to make some uber fucked up horror game that I'd buy but give up on after 5 minutes (I am terrible at horror games) it'll probably be action/adventure.

It's not, so no point. Not sure why folks come around only to try and rabblerouse.
Someone, somewhere probably does and that person is most likely a moron.
Not at all, I have the same setup. I still lean console for online shooters as I use a controller and honestly, because I can't stand having to grab the keyboard when something bugs out or tabs the heck out. It's lazy of me I know. I'm just strange about certain things, same way I won't use my consoles for media as I like a certain level of control over that experience that only PC can offer.
Thankfully, I can enjoy both so it's not a big deal.

It did. It used to be a lot worse.
GAF better now than it's been in the past 10 years.
Seriously, go read some old threads. GameFAQs-levels of posting.

Cool, I'm ready for a totally original, non-MGS Kojima game. Haven't had one of those since Zone of the Enders. If it's enough of a killer app I may end up buying a PS4 because of it.

I think some people are calling it a money hat because it's also coming to PC. Using a positive and puting it under bad light, classic Warrior warfare.

This thread holds the best news in the year of dreams and here we are arguing over console v pc? I hate this place so much.

Maybe it will be "Silent Hills" and not Silent Hills. No reason they can't get Reedus and del Toro to do a horror game with no reference to Silent Hill. PT didn't look or feel like Silent Hill anyway.
And give Konami ammo to go after them?
A brand new project would be the safest bet right now, the last thing they need as a new studio is to be stuck in a legal battle over their first project.

I agree. At least Kojima is being clear about an eventual PC release, unlike Square Enix and their vague 'first to PS4' bullshit with the Final Fantasy 7 remake.
First to PS4 literally means PS4 gets it first and any other platform stands a chance of getting it at a later date. How exactly is that in any way bullshit?

To be honest personally I'm sitting back and gonna watch scalebound. I see it being like the other gens with Microsoft they make a few eastern games and they don't sell and they drop them like a ton of bricks. I just don't think Microsoft sales expectations are going to line up with reality on this and they will drop them just like all the other gens it's sad really some of the jrpgs on 360 where really good.
