It's the same location, so the only development needed, is the campaign, and whatever optimizations they were putting in the engine anyway.

As for your above comment, there is a big difference between wanting to build a PC, and not being able to. There is absolutely nothing wrong with paying for convenience (I do it every day), so if you want to buy a pre-build, please do.

But don't then say it's a required expense.

PC games are much cheaper.

Devil May Cry 4 just got released yesterday on PC, for only 40$ !!!!! And it's not a cheap port either - it's the true version of DMC4 and even has 2 extra modes and fully optimized.

Was this a random comment, or a personal attack (I own a European exotic)? Just curious if you are an alt/lurker, or just got lucky :p

Interesting part is that I started like that, just putting my own machine, now I build machines for friends and family for some $$$, so after just learning the basics I can save more than a few bucks and make some profit from it...

is it a standalone expansion?

full game, and probably way better than Crysis.

 Yep! :)

ok, thanks.

I read that it was a full game... But I didn't know if they meant  an expansion that was as big as a full game or what. great value anyway.

it IS a full game, not an expansion.

Let me do another copy-paste comparing PC to 360 prices, because some people think it's worth it to argue about something they don't know about.

PC:
-- $800 PC (that's how much mine cost including a 22" widescreen monitor), it plays COD4 on max settings, Crysis with medium to high settings, TF2 fully maxed, etc.
-- Free internet usage and gaming.
-- Games typically start at $50.

Run that for 2 years, with, let's say, a $100 upgrade for something along the line, a hard drive, video card, whatever. I just bought a Radeon 3850 for $90, and that's pretty much my only upgrading in a while. Let's say you buy 12 games a year, once a month.

Add that up, that's $2100 in 2 years.

360:

--$350 console, no TV, you can factor that price separately if you wish, though to be fair we should throw in the same $170 monitor I factored into the PC deal.
--$50 a year for Xbox Live, right?
--Games typically start at $60.

Add that up, it's $1890 for 2 years, without the monitor. Throw in the monitor, or similarly priced TV, that's $2060. Throw in another controller, because who the hell owns a console with only one controller? You're now up to $2100, or $2180 if you buy 2 more controllers.

I was a little modest with both systems. You can overspend on a PC, get things you don't need, just as you can do with a console. You can buy used games on a console, but PC games drop in price REALLY fast so they're pretty much equal there.
