Eh... good point. So maybe I ask them really nice like to make it for PC as well since I was so nice and bought an expensive Sony VAIO laptop. They can't ignore that platform, can they?

I dunno about that. Considering the lawsuit brought unto them by Immersion over breaching their copyright on the vibrating game controller, Sony may be looking at new ways to get that potential money lost. Good thing they have the PSP raking it in, but still, I doubt they would wanna lose any potential $$$ by allowing other platforms to get their games, too. Especially with the next new Xbox to compete with.

I was going to mention the lawsuit about the vibrating controllers, but didn't. Then I thought you were reading my mind, and it totally freaked me out. So anyway, that's a good point. They could milk the sales of 24 for PS2 and eventually license it out to the other platforms. But I don't know. I at least hope they release it here in America. I'll get a PS2 or their next console if I have to. I'm sure there are other games I'd like as well. Or just borrow my brother's. I was just hoping I could get away with just having a PC for my gaming needs. And a PSP, too. Oh well.
