2011 Console Games We Want To See On The PC

BD: While 2011 already has a full slate of PC games schedule for release in the next year there are also a number of console exclusive titles that we think PC gamers would embrace as well. In fact some console exclusive titles for 2011 were originally announced as coming for the PC as well but apparently the publishers have changed their minds.

Quote from article regarding if LA Noire will make it to PC: "Rockstar tends to release PC ports of nearly all of its console games at some point although sometimes it takes as much as two years for that to happen. So put a LA Noire PC version in the "possibly one day" category."

If this is the case, I'd really like to see Red Dead Redemption make it to PC. Loved it on the console and think it would be great on the PC. Just imagine the mods that could be made for it.

@Cratos8780

not for nerds but arrogant, pompous assclown that think just because they can name a PC component like graphics card they a special.

imy graphics card is a neon Xts006wxt
i have 20 gigs of ram
my processor is 100 ghz<< actually those are real but not for consumers
and so on

NO ONE CARES

Come on PC guys if you can upgrade your gaming PC you can get a PS3 too.

See you in PSN or SC2 if you dont want a PS3

[Agent-86]

@Kevin Butler, I do own a PS3....that's how I was able to play Red Dead Redemption. I was just pointing out that it would be great if it was also out on PC, like most of Rockstar's other games. But, that's why I like owning a gaming PC plus a PS3, so I get the best of both worlds.

[pr0digyZA]

Lol thats true and that is why most PC guys do own at least a PS3 if not all consoles.I see you in every PC article trounbyfire, if I didn't know any better I would think you really want a PC but your parents won't give it to you.

[Da_Evil_Monkey]

@trounbyfire

not all PC gamers are assclowns, some are, but it's only the same as some PS3 owners and Xbox owners being assclowns as well. For some reason a few PC guys feel the need to just be idiots and slam consoles, unfortunately these 'elitists' will miss out on some great games that are for console only such as Red Dead Redemption, Uncharted, Gears of War (2 and 3) or even Super Mario Galaxy.

The best way to fully experience the variety of games on offer is to own all platforms. That way if a game is exclusive you still get to play it and enjoy it. Sure your PC might be the best spec you can buy and by all means enjoy it, but don't slam others just because they don't choose the same platform as you. If you rely on PC only you miss out on some great games, just like if you rely on one console only.

[Rainstorm81]

Why would PC guys want a console exclusive.....hear them tell it

"PC is teh bestest, why would we wanna play console games when i have my mouse and keyboard with Crysis "

Keep wishing for games like Uncharted and Red Dead....until then theres always Half life, crysis, wow and starcraft....

or theres the other option BUY A CONSOLE!!!!

[cakeisalie]

Last Uncharted was released in 2009 thats about 1 good console game in that year.

RDR was the only good console exclusive this year.

Why buy a console just for 2-3 GOOD exclusives a year, rest of the games are just cheaper and superior on PC anyways. No point spending so much money to get a console then pay royalties on every game to Microsoft or Sony just for those 2-3 exclusives a year(PC has its own exclusives too btw so those just count out against each other).

[trounbyfire]

@cakeisalie

BULLS*T

you lie and superior LOL i think not. WE get most the games in the industry and only a few pc franchises are around to day. 2-3 exclusive YEAR RIGHT your a joke.

pc fanboys just like to mod and its a tiny fraction of the gaming industry.

console and handhelds are the back of this industry. we can survive without pc games but no console games would be the end of our industry

also those annoying i phone gamers that try to be apart of our industry STOP. we don't want you or your BS transaction fee games to creep into our games anymore

[rjdofu]

@cakeisalie: LOLWUT? PC game sure have a lot of exclusive, but name me how many AAA PC exclusives a year, compare to the PS3 exclusives, or the xbox360 exclusive? Quality >>>> quantity my friend. And please suggest me a gamming PC, which can run those "good" exclusive in high setting, with less than $300?

LOL tell you what, in 2009, PC has no god damn AAA exclusive to begin with.

Who gives a damn about a gaming PC which can run a few good game with incredible graphic huh? What I need is a system which has enough AAA games.

[never_waste_a_bullet]

PS3 exclusives... 'nuff said

PS3 exclusives is what keeps me going back to console

[Ratchet510]

sony always have the best games and best looking, for example best graphics of 2010 went to ps3 god of war 3 look it up GT.com.

[never_waste_a_bullet]

yeah keeps me coming back, wanting more and more... GOW is a great game - one of my favs- and maybe best looking on console.. but I wouldn't say it wins the best graphics of 2010 if you count PC

[cakeisalie]

Personally dont really care about the odd games that are Console exclusive, most games are out on PC anyways and are alot cheaper.

If i look at the year 2010, i hardly see a console exclusive worth talking about. Only game i would have liked this year on PC would be RDR.

Overall i must have played 25-30 games this year. For 2-3 games that are console exclusive i am not going to end up paying more for all the rest of games i do play on PC (which i bought far cheaper). Hence i dont see the sense of owning a Console just for 2-3 games in a year. Console gaming is just too expensive imo.

[Pandamobile]

LA Noire is the only game on that list where I really want a PC version, but there are a couple of other games that aren't in the realm of possibility that I'd love to see on PC in their full glory.

Killzone 3 and Uncharted 3 at 1080p and up, at 60 FPS with some high quality anti-aliasing would be look awesome.

[Hazmat13]

sandbox editor for Crysis2 on PS3, 360, ok im done. Uncharted2 on PC would be epic!

[achippedbrick]

i wouldnt like to satisfy killzone 3s and uncharted deceptions visuals for that 1080p and 60fps it would look like mario for snes on your pcs

[Pandamobile]

wat

[HappyGaming]

PS4 Killzone 4?

[SnakeMustDie]

PS3 exclusives will be great on the PC. Although it will be kinda akward if you don't have a controller.

[reynod]

Breaking news, you can use the DS3 on the PC. If you already own a PS3 no need to buy a new controller for the PC.

[never_waste_a_bullet]

more breaking news, most people play PC games with a mouse... and that's how it should be

[MVGeneral]

Even more breaking news,
There is no vibration feature on a mouse, and only strategy and fps games are better with the mouse and keyboard. But fighting, racing, platforming, third person, and sports games are better with a controller.

[SnakeMustDie]

When I said a controller, I meant any kind of controller either DS3, 360 controller or third party. Its kinda different experience if you play games that are designed for consoles with a keyboard and mouse and I use my DS3 for my PC to play games like Batman on the PC.

[ct03]

Third person is clearly inferior on a controller. Using the mouse to change the camera perspective and aim is MUCH faster and more precise than using an analog stick.

I agree about fighting, platforming and sports games. But I don't play any of that. For racing games I use a wheel.

[il-mouzer]

@ SnakeMustDie

actually a lot of PC games nowadays come supported with a "gamepad function" which supports controllers natively - even if such a function isn't available setting it up isn't as hard as one might think.

strangely enough I always turn vibration off from my gamepads

[SnakeMustDie]

I know about that but some PC gamers doesn't have the luxury to have a Gamepad or Controller so my point still stands.

[il-mouzer]

:S

[Arup02]

Wow, imagine Uncharted 2 running in a high end PC... Gorgeous. Sadly this isn't gonna happen. But i'm really excited for a L.A Noire release on PC.

[reynod]

If Uncharted came to PC, Sony might as well bump up the texture quality as well since even entry level PC of today are multiple times more powerful then the PS3.

[1PC2PS33360]

the thing is, we will be able to play 1080p ps3 emulators in 4 years, also, lol, I own a ps3 too, and a ds, wii, ps2, xbox, dreamcast, super nintendo, 3 gaming pcs (one with i7 and sli 470, soon to be 570, you can exchange em free if you get lifetime warranty from bestbuy:) ) an iphone, laptop (flash games while pooping lol)

might buy move, on the fence,

so i really do not feel I am missing anything, fable 3 will come to pc, sold my 360 after halo reach(2 weeks was enough with that one)

Steam sales are making it hard to even touch my consoles though

[drexl]

4 years? lol i dont think so. to put this into perspective for you, the xbox 1 was released all the way back in 2001, and yet there still isn't a working emulator for PC yet. if it's been 10 years and there still isnt even an xbox 1 emulator yet, how long do you think it's gonna take for a PS3 emulator to come out? (or the 360 for that matter?)

a lot longer than 4 years methinks.

[TheBand1t]

the difference is alot of the original Xbox's games were PC ports...so...it wouldn't make sense to make an emulator for it.

[hassi94]

Yeah, and the PS2 has an emulator working on 95% of games that's existed for 2-3 years.

PS3 emulators I can see existing in 4 years, by that time next gen consoles will be in their stride and PCs will be at a much higher level than now.

[IPUMPMYGUN]

Sony would make a killing if there games were ported or developed also for PC. Sony does make PC games, but not to often.

[trounbyfire]

nO sony would BC2 MW2 BLOPS AC most games on consoles and pc sell more on console BY A WIDE margin

[ct03]

Oh, you have worldwide digital distribution sales data? Link please.

[Lionalliance]

Mindjack?
Really?!

[Ratchet510]

haha you wish ps3 exclusives went to PC but better than going to 360.

[Letros]

Meh, Gears of War 3 I'd like on PC, other ones are more for console audiences.

[GarandShooter]

Yeah, right. I've enjoyed the Gears series on my 360, but to deny that Gears was developed for the console demographic is laughable. There is absolutely nothing cerebral about the Gears franchise, much like your posts.

[Letros]

Actually, Gears has pretty fun multiplayer which is why I'd like it on PC, you know because PC is primarily a MP platform, PC gamers generally don't give a shit about some 8-10 hour "epic" SP experience.

[GarandShooter]

The majority of those games will have a multiplayer aspect. Now what? Try again. It's clear you're trying to thumb your nose at console gamers, why not just man up, be direct and stop hiding behind veiled insults?

[trounbyfire]

OH hell no!!

"PC fanboys want our games buy a ps3 and the thought of seeing our games played with a keyboard is truly sickening. Let them have there PCs and graphics care because no one cares about you pc fanboy.

LOL pc not released in the NPD and not even vgchartz regularly track pc games. face it the only gaming on pc should be making my PS3 games.

yeah i rep sony and don't like PCs fanboys at all

[hassi94]

If you represented Sony they would have crashed and burned the day you were born.

[mobijoker]

I would like only one game very badly for my pc and that's Uncharted 3.

[trounbyfire]

blaspheme

you better be a pc fanboy and not a sony fanboy

[tsn]

If every console game was available on PC I wouldn't own consoles.

[ATi_Elite]

The reason PC gamers would like to have some console titles on the PC is

1. experience the title in FULL HD (or higher) 1080p 60fps
2. Play it on dedicated servers with admins for mutiplayer
3. Experience the game the way the developers made it utilizing the RAW power of our PC's to max out the graphics
4. Mods
5. Total control over the Gaming Experience.

It's not like Pc gamers can't afford a PS3 or don't already have one it's these things that I listed and many more that you just can't do on a console

For me Killzone 3 and GT5 are the only two games I really want on PC because I feel the console is holding these two developers back from reaching their full potential. GT5 is just too ambitious for the PS3 and Guerrilla Games could beat Crytek easily with KZ3 on PC. I'm dogging the PS3 but GT5 on PC would have 1000 premium cars and KZ3 Pc using DX11 would topple Crysis and Metro 2033.

[blackburn5]

Well to bad, if you want these babies you have to buy a PS3. BTW getting a little sick of people who keep claiming that a system that they have to pay higher then a console for and constantly have to buy newer upgrades for is better than a console. I don't understand why the fact that you have money to burn on a high end PC is relevant. It like saying if Sony made a $1200.00 PS3 it could probably beat all systems hands down. But then you still have to pay $1200.00. I could buy a sports car and out run your cheap little no frills economic car but there is still the fact that you have to pay money for the sports car in the first place.
