Only douchebags complain about piracy. Seriously are the game developers so immature to keep whine and ***** about it? It existed since doom, there's really nothing anyone can do about it. They keep talking about the amount of pirated downloads, but will those pirates buy the game if they had to? nope!
Its just an easy way to put blame on piracy and clean off your hands.
As for the lack of PC port of Transformers, the developer admitted that its difficult for them to develop one, and that its out of their expertise. That's the reason the game is being ported to PC by a different developer..Mercenary Games
Expect some big names like COD,Battlefield ,Skyrims,etc with damn huge fan following(and pc gamers passionate enough to get original copies),rest most of the games published for pc suffers financial loss(read piracy)....

iTS THE CASE everywhere
Except*
That's the hoax spread by some lame devs/pubs. Forgot of the existence of steam? or forgot of the fact that a game like Alan Wake was able to recover development costs within 48 hours of release on steam?
The answer is quality my friend, PC gamers respect developers who respect them first. Make a good game with a lot of value, nothing stops people from buying it. The first Transformers title on PC was a very bad port, the online portion was broken, limited graphics settings, un-mappable controls etc..who would buy such a cluster-fck release?
Plz explain The Block Buster Gears Of War series is not on pc expect GOW 1.
Why The creator of Windows skipped their own platform...hmmm???
!!!!
There are a lot of names like that.....
Ah! Windows isn't entirely Microsoft's platform, lot of third party companies make money out of PC releases, Xbox 360 is called an actual platform which is completely owned by Microsoft, they can make money out of game releases, DLC releases, online features, accessories, special editions

As for Gears of War 1 on PC, that was the first x360 exclusive from Epic, Microsoft hardly had any idea about the kind of success the game could be at that time. They released Halo 1 and 2 on PC as well which were huge success, heck the PC version of Halo 1 is still played and the modding community is active as well.
If I was Microsoft, I would obviously want the console Im making have some good exclusives, and why would I leave an awesome game like gears which act as the selling point for the console? got it?
Any console manufacturer would do that thing. Exclusives are a major selling point for the consoles. Alan Wake was supposed to be a multi-platform title(PC and x360) with a lot of PC features, was it piracy? NO! Remedy was very excited to bring the game to PC as well, but Microsoft thought it could make them a lot of money and made it an xbox360 exclusive. That's just the way the console manufacturers look at things.
So please don't complain about piracy, it exists and yes it is a problem, but pulling away PC ports and blaming piracy as a reason is not a solution.
LOL btw, I noticed you keep confusing yourself about
'expect' and
'except', there's a lot of difference between those two words, better correct yourself
This was the excuse made by epic and microsoft Heads on being asked why no GOW2 for PC:
"Here's the problem right now; the person who is savvy enough to want to have a good PC to upgrade their video card, is a person who is savvy enough to know bit torrent to know all the elements so they can pirate software. Therefore, high-end videogames are suffering very much on the PC."
.
That comment was made by Cliff Bleszinski. So, in a way, he is blaming that high end PC gamers are pirates? seriously what kind of a douchebag would make an insult of their own potential customers, always hated him for this very reason.
Now he s working on a PC exclusive, yet to be revealed...yeah talk about piracy :\ what an a$$hole.
Its mainly rampant piracy prevalent on PC .(compartively higher- bcuz for sure consoles aint free of piracy...)
LOL. Alan Wake was the second most pirated game on 2010, with around 1.1 million downloads

And don't compare that number to PC's, 1.1m is a huge number. So piracy isn't something that's exclusive to PC, its something that can exist on any platform.
