Console version of PzC?

[LandMarine47]

Is there any hope for PzC on Xbox 360s and PS3's?

[KeldorKatarn]

Blasphemy!

[VPaulus]

Shouldn't we burn him alive?

Just kidding.

[KeldorKatarn]

Bury him naked in an ant hill!

[LandMarine47]

Bury him naked in an ant hill!

Now that's just mean

[KeldorKatarn]

Ok... smear him with honey first. You're right. You gotta give the ants something back for messing up their hill.

[LandMarine47]

Wow I didn't think I broken a strong nerve! In particular I want my friends to stop playing stupid FPS games like Call of duty and play something worthwhile!

[KeldorKatarn]

Bury their console! In an anthill!

[Horseman]

Bury their console! In an anthill!

After covering it with honey

[LandMarine47]

We'll now I know who to call when I need someone tortured

Wow I didn't think I broken a strong nerve!

Certain things are better not to be said in a forum where you might find hardcore PC gamers.
The Glorious PC Master Race is very sensitive.

Oh ya, I forgot about the whole "Console war"
This whole argument is stupid! I mean they ALL were made to play video games! Why must there be a need to find out which one is better?! Just shut up and play the damn games

I don#t mind the machines. I dislike the fact that since consoles became so mainstream games have been incredibly dumbed down to cater the target audience and limited controls and a lot of genres that I used to like were castrated as a result. And I think that's what PC players dislike about consoles, not the machines themselves.

And that's why I want Panzer Corps on consoles (and why I prefer PCs). Today's games is all about luck, shoot a guy enough times and congratulations! You won the game! Panzer Corps (and all strategy games) make you WORK to win. It disappoints me on what the mainstream gaming community is like nowadays

At the risk of being stoned to death..... There is a commercial reality in putting a game like PzC on console, i.e. the ratio of console gamers to PC owners is massively in favour of console and by not producing a console version of the game then Matrix / Slitherine are missing out on a ton of potential revenue (as is the case with any PC exclusive nowadays) and with PzC's turn based hex based gameplay it would suit a game pad.

I own an XBox 360 and use it for certain games, i.e. of late Gears of War (Judgement), Diablo III and GTA V, all of which either aren't on PC or are arguably better on console, Diablo III is actually brilliant on the 360 (no joke.. ).

These days I tend to use my PC for strategy games like PzC, Civ 5, Universal Europa IV, Crusader Kings II etc and console for the more action orientated stuff, but PzC is a fairly 'light' strategy title, as in easy to play / hard to master kind of game and if it can be ported to tablet then there is no reason why it couldn't go to console.

& as the OP says, if PzC on console can broaden some people's horizons away from the annual CoD / Battlefield 'modern warfare' FPS snorefest then Slitherine / Matrix are arguably doing humanity and gaming a favour

The attitude of "But we can make more money if..." is what ruins this industry. Gaming used to be about giving a fun experience and making enough money to keep doing that. Not to give a shit about design and just do what everybody else is doing to maximize income. The fact that Slitherine and Matrix games are exactly NOT doing this is why I am here. And you can bet your ass that I'd be gone faster than you can say "console" if they changed that policy.
