microsoft must be learning something from sony here. Time to stop porting all the 360 games to pc, because nobody is going to buy your systems if your system sellers are on a platform they already own.

How many copies do you think PC games sell that aren't Sims, Halo, or WoW?  Even if Alan Wake did sell on the PC I doubt it would sell over 100k.

They probably just decided it wasn't worth their time to continue working on both versions.  I imagine that game already has a giant budget so they probably want to save money however they can without decreasing the overall quality.  By cutting the PC version they probably saved themselves a lot of money and allowed them to focus solely on the 360 version.

You jest, Alan Wake is made by Remedy Entertainment, which is a developer with a big fanbase on PC. Most Likely Alan Wake would reach at least 1 millions sold on PC.

And you are telling me that Alan Wake would sell only a fifth of Garry's Mod?! The real reason is that Microsoft is afraid of PC, because if Alan Wake PC came out same time as the 360 version, the 360's would definitely lose sales. A MS exec even admitted that Xbox 360 would suffer from PC sales.

God I love it when you cherry pick facts, quotes, and guesses and put them all in one amusing utterily hilarious post.
