Looks like all we got now is to play the SF IV only. I really don't understand why are they concerned about PC piracy only when their sales were high too. Here's what they have to say,"Capcom's Yoshinori Ono cites illegal download concerns over game's absence after calling SFIV's Windows edition "number one in piracy.""

That's a shame, Capcom never has had affinity for us PC gamers, the console players of Resident evil 5 also got 2 extra DLCs and some addons, so far PC players got nothing, it's sad, very sad.

I bought SF4 for PC, though I think it was a waist of money because they clearly put no effort into making it a PC game and just did a very poor console rip port.
Things like no 2 player keyboard support, poor controller support, bad online match making system, no option to mute voice comm, no push to talk button.
I gave this game a chance, I even built my own joystick in anticipation of the game but I quickly realized that I had purchased a game that was not worth my money so I definitely refuse to purchase it again just because they added a few new characters. -

If they would have released that game for PC with just new characters, then they would have charged less price but not the original retail price.
So, I would rather sell old SFIV and add some more and get Super SIV. -

Big fyi, Ono is a troll.
Just saying, I have a gut feeling it will come to PC maybe later next year.
Capcom has been making some really weird decisions lately about games to release on PC.
I love the game and i still play it actually. One of the most active games i play because i can never get bored of it.
If there is no PC version ever, chances are we will see a leaked Arcade dump like Blazblue CS (or was it CT?) -
its strange (and sad)... people claim pc piracy is so rampant, yet in reality it's easier to pirate an xbox or wii game. ps3 is the only one so far which has remained hack free.

Ps3 has had its share of exploits... PC games are the easiest to pirate, no doubt about that

I do not think pirating is the cause of the no PC release, I think its other factors like how poorly they implemented the first game.
I would think even if you had an insane pirating rate like 50% you would still be making money by releasing the game on the platform easily. Last I checked the most pirated games are also the ones most sold, and people that pirate games are also the ones most likely to buy them.
It may sound strange but I think that is how it statistically works out. -

I don't understand why can't they just use steamworks, because many games benefit from it. Even though it can still be pirated, people are more willing to buy games on steam giving the correct price.

Oh and one more thing, theres a ****storm on the capcom forums about this, lol.
No Super Street Fighter 4 for PC :(
