SEGA confirmed that they're porting more of their past games to PC

[TimmiT]

From the press release about Sonic Lost World coming to PC:

“We’re delighted to be able to bring Sonic Lost World to PC.” Said John Clark, VP of Commercial Publishing for SEGA Europe; “This is the latest in a string of high quality PC ports of past SEGA titles that we will be building on in the coming months and years.”

I'm happy about it. As long as the games and ports continue to be good, I'll buy them.

Yakuza makes you use a gamepad so i don't think it'll get past 100k like Valkriya Chronicles

A Yakuza: Dead Souls PC port would be wicked cool. Perfect time to release a Halloween-themed game.

Sarcasm? IDK man, VC has done nearly or slightly over 500K on steam, so I'd say its a pretty decent measure.

You mean past 500k?

Also, Sonic Lost World is best played with a gamepad as well. Didn't stop SEGA from porting that to PC though. :V

I wonder if the recent port of ZombU triggered Sonic LW?

Anywho, I'd like to see the following please SEGA

Sonic Colours HD
Shenmue I & II
Yakuza Series (this might actually happen with the remake)
Skies of Arcadia

Dude, of all Yakuza games that could come out for PC, you pick Dead Souls?

Gimme the mainline games, man. Gimme the spinoffs that we never even played here. Shit, gimme Panzer Dragoon, gimme Vanquish, gimme Shenmue 1 and 2 (Don't fucking this up, Sega), Skies of Arcadia, Virtua Fighter 5. So much good shit, man. Sega needs to wake the fuck up.

Because it's the only Yakuza game that kinda sorta works with Keyboard+Mouse ?

Probably more because of the Nintendo exclusivity period ran out. Also Valkyria Chronicles PC selling well when it comes to other future PC ports.

[Trippled]

I think they should put Valkyria on PS4 and Sonic LW on Xbone/PS4. I really dont get why they woudn't

I don't see how how well a game plays on one control scheme effects its standing on another control scheme. Half-Life, Unreal Tournament, and Quake 3 were all tooled for the keyboard and mouse, yet they all saw Dreamcast ports of some shape. Likewise, stuff like Sonic Generations and Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed are very much best played with a controller, but they ended up being the best on PC. And it's not like controllers DON'T exist for PC, there's quite a range of options there.
