Good on them for sticking to their guns, this will surely benefit both versions. I Guess the console version maybe further away then I thought

There's solid concrete confirmation that they're going to do a console port?, afaik they said "if", if universally doesn't translate to "will" or "100%", they might do a port later on but we don't know that yet.

No confirmation yet I'm just assuming.... theres really no logic on them skipping consoles completely, they'll sell well over 1m if its released in the next 12months and the systems are easier to manage then PS3/360 which they've already worked with. Its clear though that they don't want to compromise the PC version, specifically the UI... Once its out I'm sure they'll begin porting, but guess we'll wait and see. I wouldn't be surprised if MS and Sony are each fighting to grab this as an exclusive for their platforms, no way they'll let such an easy seller slip away, especially with how they've both been throwing money and assistence at third party teams this gen.
