When
we saw the news this morning that Criterion Games'
much-debated-then-much-praised Burnout Paradise would be coming to PC,
we were more than a little surprised. That's because in the past, the
studio's creative director Alex Ward has made some playfully
disparaging comments about gaming on PCs. So as we were Googling for
one of his previous statements on the matter to throw into this
morning's High Score post, we came across a statement that he had made
previously to...us. Here's the exchange we had on the subject back in
the fall of 2006:
What about PC gamers?
You've been critical of the PC in the past. What would you say to
someone who's finished F.E.A.R., they've finished Half-Life 2, they've
finished Quake IV. They've seen their little brother rocking out with
Black on the console, and they want to know, "When is Alex Ward going
to show me some love?"
Never. I'm just being totally
honest. I could lie, right, and say "Maybe you'll see a PC game from us
in the future." No.
