Not hard to see why SEGA wants to focus more on PC.

I am sure I will broke a conversation rule but DAMN! The FM community are crazy.
Not only the game has sold very well but also the hours of playing for both players and game global time are out of charts literally. 2 Friggin months.
Anyway, I'm hust happy with last year releases for PC by Sega. Keep the good work, Europe!

Good news.
I'm sure a few individuals on the official Sega forums will somehow spin it though into the worst thing ever.

Never liked this game, but I'm considering rebuying this, although I don't have a working PC right now.

Whats there to hate about it? Its a fantastic SRPG.

I don't hate it, just couldn't get into it when I played it on PS3. I preordered it too, so I have the artbook as well. Thinking about giving it another chance since I haven't played it since 08.

cmon SEGA...give me another PC port...you know it would make you earn money...
-
Keep meaning to play this, but the file size concerns me. How exactly big is the download?
-
great news
-
25 Gygabytes. Took a huge chunk of my hard drive. But totally worth it.
-
I'm all for more PC games from SEGA. Fans moan about no new SEGA console, but recall that SEGA released PC games waaaay back in the day when their consoles were still very much alive. If anything, SEGA on PC is more old school and classic SEGA than SEGA on once rival consoles.

Yep it all started in the mid 90's when internal Sega Japan ported Saturn and Sonic titles.

Ouch...I've got a terabyte, but it's the download itself that concerns me. My Internet providers are quite good, but I'm not sure how they'd take that. I'll have to look into it. Thanks though. :)
I would like to see more on PC mind. Saturn ports, Dreamcast, new games etc are all great to me. This also makes them more accessible for years to come :)

SEGA Japan used to have a really great PC division and both SEGA Japan and Europe supported the PC sector well, I really don't know why SEGA Japan dropped it. I'm all for SEGA Japan being completely Multi-Platform with its games being on the consoles and PC's , but what I don't like is SEGA Japan focus on the Mobile and PC sectors at the expense of its console line up .
