The Witcher 2 (Poland), Hard Reset (Poland), ArmA II (Czech Republic), S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadows of Chernobyl (Russia), etcetera are all from Eastern Europe.

Are these developers too poor or are their people in their countries too poor to buy consoles or are they not smart enough to program for consoles because they're behind the times?

Also, the Polish government sent Barrack Obama, the American president, a copy of The Witcher 2 for his birthday. :lol: That is the greatest achievement of their country. That, and rushing German tanks on horses in World War II.

PC gaming is huge over there.

Stalker-Fest:

Why?

  1. Czech Republic


    The market is dominated by PC rather than Consoles. This is due to
    various related factors. With average incomes at around 600 Euros per
    month there is very little disposable income for Consoles and the more
    expensive Console games. Equally PCs take priority as a purchase
    because they have wider applications for a household. Consequently
    there are very few Consoles available in the shops. The heritage of
    piracy has also limited the attraction of Consoles historically as Console
    games are harder to pirate and use.

Well, in Eastern Europe consoles aren't very popular while PCs are. And the games you mentioned crater more to the PC audience than the console audience. Witcher 2 is a timed PC exclusive btw.

They would probably have more success if their girls weren't so ugly and Neanderthal-ish. Then they could sell them as strippers/prostitutes, but last time someone had sex with a different species, AIDs happened.Brodomski

You have too much time on your hands if you actually think anyone will take anything you say seriously with morinic comments like that, but then from your first post you are clearly trolling.

I just don't think they were smart enough to make the games for the consoles. For example, the Africans had help from aliens (I have evidence for this), which is why they were able to accomplish something beyond killing each other. Slavs are bit more developed, but aren't developed enough to make games for consoles. Also, Charles Darwin, the founder of evolution and atheism, also thought this.Brodomski

Incase you guys didn't catch on (and you obviously didn't), my point is that evolution is inheriently racist. If I could post a link, I could prove to you that Charles Darwin himself thought the African man was inferior to the European man. But just look it up on Google. They have excerpts from his books.Brodomski

No, it was an ignorant rant from someone obviously pissed that these games are PC exclusives, and you cannot play them. Your obvious hatred for Polish people is also really ignorant as well. My wife is Polish and the "rushing German tanks" joke is inapropriate here.

Actually, that's exactly right. Consoles are typically more expensive in EE, and people generally buy PC's due to their multiple uses. It's in the document I linked on the 1st page.

Why do atheists badger and antagonize Christians for "picking and choosing the parts not corrupted by men," while atheists are allowed to do the same thing. Seriously, check the link out. I am not lying!
