Wait, WHAT?!? This hasn't been released yet?? Sweet baby Jesus!

It has been on my "To Play" list for a very long time now. I guess the time has come where I can actually... play it. o.O

I dunno, when the Shogun facepalmed the sound was like... if he still had skin and flesh. Shouldn't it have been something like a "THUD"?

Would love to play it, but I don't have a Xbox or Windows 8. So, it will have to wait a bit..

To play it on PC yes you will have to buy it off the windows 8 store. It will also come out on Windows phone, and Xbox.

I hope the cheque they got from Microsoft will cover the hundreds of thousands of lost sales they will have by being a Win 8 Metro store exclusive.

I'm so confused just because it took awhile to come out you won't even give the game a chance?

Not only that, who knows if Microsoft is going to promote it in any effective manner.

At least Windows 8 and Surface have something to look forward to: Big Fish Games is going to start publishing stuff on there soon. Which means a wealth of quality games!

I don't understand this train of thought either. As long as the game is good (hopefully) then why does it matter if it's been in development for a long time? If anything, it should be pretty damn polished and bug-free by now.

I'd bet this never shows up on steam at all. Is published by MS. I wager they own the rights to it. And with it being a Windows Store app, I just don't see it happening.

That said - Windows 8 is $40 right now. No reason not to upgrade, especially if you want to play this game on PC.

windows 8 exlusive, well im out. Really dont see the point in a $40 upgrade for a $20 game, could use those $60 and just buy something at retail.

Didn't notice that XBox logo at the end? It's coming to XBLA.
