    did runic ever say if they will include the console controls in torchlight II, or change the way the game will be controlled because of the port?

    Can't say my opinion is as strong, but I agree.

    @freshym: Just because you can run it on a netbook doesn't mean anyone in their right mind would want to play it on one. Even playing it on a laptop without a USB mouse isn't pleasant.  
     
    I bought the game on Steam but don't find the interface satisfying. If it controlled more like the console versions of Baldur's Gate (which I'm lead to assume the XBLA version does) I might have a better time with it.

    As much as I want this it isn't really high on my list of games to get. Will probably get it during a Steam sale ('11 holiday, $10?).

    My computer blows so I never care to play games on it verses my 360. So I'm looking forward to the xbla release so I can finally give Torchlight a go.

    This is unfortunate, but you know, it'll probably make the game better in the long run anyways.

    For obvious reasons there just aren't as many 12 year olds playing on the PC. Logic fail.

    Sad to see it delayed, but The Witcher 2 comes out in May so I wouldn't have played it until at the earliest July anyway.

    I'm one of these PC players that puts the PC on a pedastal, mostly due to the fact that it is, you know, better. 
     
    Seeing people complain here is just moronic. As a PC gamer I hate having certain franchises "dumbed down" to be multi-platform. eg Battlefield.
     
    This game was already built for the PC and is now being ported for consoles?! What the hells wrong with that? More people get to play a great game. Plus their a small studio that had a hit, they deserve to get paid.

    When a game involves nothing more than clicking the mouse button and mashing keys to use potions, how exactly do you "dumb it down"?

    There are few things more delicious than the tears of whiny PC-only gamers. If I have to wait a little longer for Torchlight 2, that's alright.

    They could do something like less active skills because there are only so many free buttons on a gamepad even though a keyboard has more than enough hotkeys.

    I dunno, even with the delay that'll still give Torchlight II a couple of years to gather sales.

    Of course it will..  But Torchlight has a pretty devoted cult following, even releasing close to Diablo 3, I don't think it has much to worry about.  Plus that's assuming Diablo 3 will be out anytime before 2015.

    My roommate and I were totally psyched for Torchlight 2.  But it only just now dawned on us that it won't be on XBLA until, well, ... probably a good long while after it's PC/Mac release.

    The guys that made Torchlight made the classic Diablo and Diablo 2. It sort of dampens my optimism for the quality of Diablo 3, now since it's made by a different team.
