Battlefield 1943 PC joins the Q1 2010 party

Am I sensing some hostility in the last statement?

i'm confused, there's no PC version yet? I didn't think a simple downloadable game was hard to implement on the PC. They should just cancel it, i mean by that time it there will be about a few good shooters out there. Including MW2 and BC2.

l love 1943, even got one of the easiest 100% trophies i ever gotten. Too bad no platinum

I guess you PC gamers will just have to settle for all the OTHER battlefield games you have that aren't on consoles.

Actually, I haven't played BF2 or 2142 in a really long time. :(

i like the video card rationalization

Say it ain't so, Joe!

why not just make 1942 available for free? I played the trial of 1943 and it reminded me of the wake demo before 1942 came out. Even though 1943 is the retarded cousin of the battlefield series.Sure he is fun to be around, but he can't cross the street without his hand being held.

I've been waiting patiently? Really? Good to know I guess...

I was thinking about buying this game, but then I realized, "Hey, I bought this game 5 years ago."

"If you find the idea of spending that much on a console distasteful, just tell yourself it's a really big video card."

Yeah, a REALLY, REALLY weak video card that I cannot upgrade, can't run games at 2560x1200 at 8x antialising, can't run mods, can't run benchmark utilities to show off my e-penis, etc. : P

I am a diehard PC gamer, have all the other PC Battlefields and still bought 1943. I really like it except the typical XBOXLive lack of team play. Too many kiddies just wanting to frag out. Also the flying sucks. One of the worst control schemes I've ever used.

Won't buy this for the PC though. Got it for the 360, don't need two copies. Especially since I don't see any mention of it supporting crossplatform play. If dev's want to sell more PC versions, they need to push for crossplatform support.

Things Ive come to expect from Battlefield PC... so theres not going to be widescreen support because they think thats "cheating"?

A really big 3 year old outdated video card.

I'll still be playing MW2. Also, I'm kind of done with WW2.

yeah, a big video card. except it doesn't make the game look any better.

So why just 1943, give me BF:BC & BC2 so I can play MP on them.

This is sad honestly. Computer gamers set the stage for it, made it what it is and suddenly the console games get the latest and best stuff now. We have to wait for second rate second hand stuff. I own all of the console systems, but when it comes to things like BF they belong on the PC where they came from.

I've been noticing this a lot. As gamers we're losing out footing, we wait to get considerable later releases or just a ported version of the console game that doesn't half work. Why? Our computers can handle more then any of the consoles out there (Yes even the P3, my computer can out perform it, granted if they put more ram in it and a better gfx gpu it couldn't, but as it stands...the cell processor is seriously under used). So why are we, the starters of it all, left behind...simple, money and profits. We're far and few between any more and we're far from cared for by developers any more.

Sad Sad days.

Well kevin, that's what mods are for.... The stuff consoles never get hold of, like project reality

I'd agree, consoles are getting the attention for the moment but development will shift back to pc's in a few years when consoles processing power starts to wane.

However laptop's and net books are becoming increasingly popular. I wonder if the desktop power computer population is not shrinking.

well anywho I'd love to be playing 1943 right now :'( So i bought dead space instead, so far it's pretty fun. kinda a little like system shock, more like resident evil.
