Cameron Suey, producer on the game, said the game is not coming to the PC because it was hard to develop a game that would satisfy both killer gaming rigs and outdated computers. The Force Unleashed takes place between Star Wars Episodes III and IV and puts players in the shoes of Darth Vader's secret apprentice and is due out in September for the PS3, Wii, DS, PSP, PS2, and Xbox 360. Suey elaborated why there will be no PC version of the game in an interview with Videogamer.com.
If LucasArts had delivered a PC version, it would have been based on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game, which feature new technologies that LucasArts has either licensed or helped to develop, such as the Euphoria for emotion-based character actions and Digital Molecular Matter for destructable materials.
"The PC being the gaming platform that it is, someone with a $4,000 high-end system would definitely be able to play the Euphoria, the DMM and really technical elements of the game. But someone with a low-end PC would have a watered down experience, they would have to turn all the settings down and it wouldn't be the same game," said Suey.
Suey believes that developing the game to reach a more mass market will hinder the potential of killer rigs. Therefore, no matter how you cut it, only "a select few people" can enjoy the game as it was intended.
While Suey said the team will continue to support the PC with future releases, he did cite the variance from low-end to high-end PCs as a bigger problem than it has been in the past. When asked if the game will ever come to the PC, Suey said there are currently no plans to bring the game over to the platform.
Dịch ngắn gọn là sẽ ko có SW:FU dành cho PC bởi vì vấn đề cấu hình. Máy high-end thì sẽ thưởng thức đc game trong khi máy low-end thì sẽ fải zảm settings xuống và như thế thì sẽ ko thưởng thức trọn vẹn game.

CS: No Commodore 64, no Apple IIE...
VideoGamer.com: No PC...
CS: No PC as well, yes.
VideoGamer.com: So the decision was purely about the PC being a varied platform?
CS: Exactly. And no matter where you pick that bar somebody's out of luck.
VideoGamer.com: It had nothing to do with piracy?
CS: I don't have my fingers in the pot of what goes into the legal part of pirating. I'm not really familiar with the figures. I understand it's a lot more prevalent in some areas than others.
VideoGamer.com: Do you guys have any message to your PC-owning fans, because you guys have a heritage on PC?
CS: Absolutely. We started on the PC. Unfortunately that goes back to the point of such a variance of the platform. There wasn't such a variance at that time and it made a lot more sense to develop on PC. The message is that we're not shutting the door on PC at all. Just for this project it happens to be that we don't have a PC SKU. I really hope that everyone can experience this game on a platform eventually.
VideoGamer.com: Might there be a PC version in the future?
CS: No. And if there was no-one has told me about it yet! I've got my head in the sand as far as this project goes. We only don't have a PC version for this product.
Đây là bài fỏng vấn mà bên IGN trích ra. Mình chỉ trích ra các fần chính.
Tóm tắt lại là sẽ ko có game trên PC bởi vì cấu hình của các máy khác biệt nhau rất nhiều X( và hoàn toàn ko fải vì nạn sao chép đĩa lậu trên PC.
p/s: ko kịp dịch cho hết, bác nào rảnh thì xin zúp em dịc hết các bài này thxs.
Ý kiến cá nhân: B$.

nói thế chả khác nào tác nước vào mặt Crysis. But mình vẫn hi vọng cái này chỉ là để lừa dân tình tậu game trên PS3 với X360 thui. Đến khi thu hồi vốn liếng đủ rồi thì sẽ có bản port sang PC.
