They couldn't release it along side the consoles like so many other shops do?

I'm sure it's a fun game, but I've had my fill of 6 months between a console release and a PC port (of unknown quality), especially when the devs come out with "we needed that time to make it super extra cool for you savvy PC users!"

Sorry, heard it way too often. If they wanted my money they'd have published on my platform by release date.
