The spyro and crash remakes
RDR2
And whatever it is Blizzard is doing

They seem to be ignoring a growing market. I wonder if console companies are paying them to not release on PC. . .

I hope this is a joke. Most gamers today probably have a PC that easily outperforms the current generation of consoles.

The first 2 aren't ignoring PC

Why release a game on PC at the same time as consoles when you can release it for consoles first, not mention a PC version, get suckers to buy the console versions first, then release a PC version so suckers buy a second copy

I mean I don't own a console, and I'm sure many other PC gamers don't.

So they're missing out on a big market for the off chance that someone buys their product twice.

They're trying to make people double dip on the game. The later PC versions will be better anyway, since they'll run at 60fps and will include the bug fixes too.

but they're not missing out, the people that will buy it twice likely outnumber the people that won't buy it at all just because the PC version came later, otherwise they wouldn't bother doing it this way

You don't need a high end PC to match the 720p @30fps of most console games.

Hell, low end tech from 2015 will do that for you.

They're being paid to enforce artificial exclusives. Only way it makes sense not to limit your audience.
