So the survival game that Ubisoft Montreal has been working on for who knows how many years now has finally been confirmed. But the catch... it's a console downloadable title. For the PS3 and XBOX360 but not for the PC. PC gamers demanded an answer and now we have Creative Director Stanislas Mettra saying that "It’s hard because there’s so much piracy and so few people are paying for PC games that we have to precisely weigh it up against the cost of making it. Perhaps it will only take 12 guys three months to port the game to PC, it’s not a massive cost but it’s still a cost. If only 50,000 people buy the game then it’s not worth it.". It's not worth it because of piracy...le sigh... the P word again. He also said "But are these people just making noise just because there’s no version or because it’s a game they actually want to play? Would they buy it if we made it?". I'm not sure which 'these people' he is referring to... oh well... to bad Ubisoft doesn't want our money. Thanks IncGamers for spotting this.
