[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 259611, member: 134"] That's exactly what I did. I had already bought season 2 on PS3 when the Steam announcement came. At the same time, there was lots of PS4 talk going on, which made me start worrying about migrating, especially since I knew I wouldn't own a PS4 until at least a year after release. I'll say it every time, but shifting to the PC for playing was the best decision ever. FarSight tried some kind of cross buy deal, but long since stopped with it. Zen allowed table owners to get I think 20 different titles when switching platforms, but it wasn't your entire library and you had didn't get to pick which tables they'd be. Again, I don't know if that offer still exists. With a lot of studios, they want you migrating at platform launch and then after that, snooze you lose. Mainly because they don't want to keep having to deal with the old platform and want to move on, so it's a reward/punish idea. All the people who complain about TPA on consoles, the lack of updates, the bugs that linger for months and months, would completely switch their tune by going to PC. Yes, the sticker shock will suck. Just wait it out for a Steam sale though. After about 2 months they'll completely forget the woes that have been bothering them as tables, updates, bug fixes, and more just magically appear whenever. [/QUOTE]
