Amazing how PC fannies are suddenly excited with movie games.

Actually my reaction to this was /shrug, That's not going to entice me to get behind Epic's shit store.

Back then, Kojima wanted to bring Death Stranding to PC before Sony made it official it'll be PS4 exclusive but I'm sure Death Stranding will show it's way to PC at a later date once Death Stranding releases. Kojima knows the PC platform is well love and even himself, he was thrill when Metal Gear Solid 5 looks amazing on PC.

Kojima started his career as a PC developer, developing games for home computers like the MSX and PC-88 in the '80s. And even Metal Gear itself began as a PC game series, on the MSX. But after the 16-bit era, PC became mostly irrelevant in Japan, so he's happy to see PC making a comeback in Japan over the last few years.

I came late to the world of PC (started PC gaming in 2007) but I always thought it was on NES. Thanks for the history lession :)

It's worth noting that Kojima had nothing to do with the NES version, or the NES spin-off Snake's Revenge. The only canon 8-bit MG games are the ones Kojima actually developed, MG1 on the MSX, and its sequel MG2 Solid Snake.

I'm glad you brought that up because people don't realize that Kojima's actual background was in PC or Computer games. If I remember correctly he even said the exact same thing in one of his interviews at the time of MGS V.

Kojima was mainly a PC developer from the '80s to the mid-90s. He had no real interest in developing for consoles until the PS1 came along. And that's only because the PC gaming market was dying in Japan around the mid-90s, forcing many Japanese PC devs to jump ship to consoles.

Yeah and how the times have changed. It's consoles now that are dying in Japan and PC gaming is on the rise.

@Dark_sageX: two threads about PC Fannies being excited made that clear.

And they're not going to sell well because they're mediocre? Lmao, we're talking about PC Fannies, they buy visual trash novels, you don't have good taste lol.

why are you mad if its coming to PC recloud?

all japanese games are now coming to PC including JRPGs. who would have though a final fantasy would be release on PC during last gen?

PC market is bigger in Japan now than before. and kojima is huge PC fan.

plus this looks only interesting sony exclusive so far imo.

I thought you hated nudity.

Asia's overall Premium PC game market is growing not just China and not just F2P games. I'm starting to see some Asian indie games from Korea and other Asian countries popping up.

Seems like Asian PC gaming culture has been having an impact on Japan lately... For a long time, Japan was the odd one out, the only console-centric nation on an otherwise PC-centric continent.

I think Asia's mobile market is also playing a big factor in this. Mobile sits at number 1 in all Asian countries with PC being the only platform that can coexist along side it. A lot of mobile games get ported to PC and vice versa with cross plat play which is likely what gets them to dip their toes into PC gaming and then try out everything else it has to offer once they get familiar enough with it. You can also emulate mobile games on a PC. Some PC online games such as Blade & Soul and Closers have gotten anime adaptions. The Japanese cast for Elsword anime has some pretty prominent voice actors such as Miyuki Sawashiro who voices Kurapika from Hunter X Hunter which is one of the most popular manga series only being outdone by One Piece currently. Korea and the rest of Asia are also making "fake anime" games on PC which are likely to attract Japanese players as well.

Hopefully

Spider-Man, Bloodborne and Death Stranding make the jump to PC as well.

Spider-Man needs Ultrawide 1440p and 100FPS gameplay

Well cows make Xbox threads everyday, with that logic I guess cows care more about xbox than lems do? or more importantly, they care about the xbox more than they do the playstation?

And visual novels? the most popular games on PC are either shooters or RTSs and a few indie side scrollers, where are these "visual trash novels" you are talking about? that sounds like something only console peasants can tolerate.

My taste is good enough to know that these games are mediocre, actually its difficult to even call them "games".

Didn't Sony send Quantic Dreams packing....of course they were gonna take their old titles and put them on PC now that Sony doesn't give a shit about them.

I do see an angle, that Microsoft spends more time pushing Steam than they do Win10 store, and opposite of Steam is Epic. So maybe Sony wants to throw it in their face, and support Epic while MS supports Steam.

Fact is, cloud gaming is coming, and if Sony wants traditional gaming to survive on PC, supporting Epic makes sense. I checked and Kojima is a 2nd party, so does seem weird, but I could see it happen, maybe.
