No PC version of Rock Band 4 for you, you whiny hermit

I never actually cared about playing these kind of games on PC, but if you find yourself disappointed because RB4 isn't coming on PC, here's why:

"There are a few reasons," Sussman said when we brought up the subject of PC and Rock Band 4 during our recent interview.

"One has to do with the fact the library is not there on PC. The library is there on Xbox and PlayStation. So, for players who want it on PC, really you're looking at a new audience that hasn't played before, and I don't know to what degree there is an audience for new players who have never played Rock Band before on the PC. That's one piece of it."

"The other piece is all the security issues, to be perfectly frank," Sussman admitted. "There's something comforting about the closed network that comes along with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. That's important to our partners in the music industry. Not to say that's an unsolvable problem."

Sounds rather reasonable to me.

More on EG.

Thoughts?

The care level is incredibly high.

Guess i'll kill myself

wont make a difference, its not a game that hermits would die for.

OMG!!!

Google PS4 and brazil dear sussman....then spew this security crap

sounds more like we can charge for everything on ps4ģxbone

Meh...

Console owners get rock band 4, pc owners get xcom 2. Seems fair to me.

I had to look up what was rock band 4. You can keep it!

Indiddly.

You wouldn't download a drumkit.

This might be disappointing news for those PC gamers interested in the game... all 13 of them !!

I'll die trying

What's the reason for not coming to Wii-U?

I just like Gordon Ramsay :p

Saw that episode not too long ago. It was a bit weird, yeah. Just licked it like that.

What is Rock Band ?

closed network? sure he isn't talking about rocksmith and the custom songs on the PC version?

I'm not missing much. What's next? Dance Central also isn't going to be on the PC? Fine with me.

Illuminati shit :)

Is it a game where your watch a music video and press quicktime events kinda pretending to play the guitar ?

OMG PC GAMING IS DYING !!!

SO EXCLUSIVE

VERY GOTY

MUCH JELLY

WOW

I understand, there's probably barely any players on the consoles for these games, let alone on the PC.

People still play these games anymore?

I am sure Hermits are devastated.

People still play these games? I thought it was some little fad that died out like 5 years ago?

I'll never understand why people sink hundreds of hours into this crap instead of just, you know...learning how to play a real guitar.

I was looking forward to jamming along with my keyboard and mouse while sitting at my desk!

Any console gamers want to start a petition for us to sign?

Because PC gamers will mod their own songs and not pay for vastly inflated DLC ...

Rock Band modded on PC would be like this

Oh noes. I am cries.

F'ing epic scene that was.

I don't like rhythm games but sometimes I play Reason and Acid Pro :p

Who cares? just buy the hardware .... then get an open source rockband software... with many more tracks ... for nothing.

Console plebians lose again.

Let me guess - PC people are pretending they don't care? did they say something like "that's just one game"?

do that many people really care about another rock band, in general?

Oh noes... I won't get to play the game that got milked to death a few years ago!

Guess I'll cry myself to some Xcom 2 when it comes out...
