Most likely not, but you never know.
Some day, someone will best me.  But it won't be today, and it won't be you.

If they didn't port Force Unleashed, whose demand was higher, this simply has no chance.
Funny thing though, you see all the people yelling that PC gaming is dying when in fact the developers are trying to kill it, it would be considerably easier for them if everyone just had a console, making a game for consoles easier, by spreading the word that PC gaming is dying, they're hoping that everyone will believe it and go out and buy all the shiny useless paper-weights.

Uhh, you know Force Unleashed is being ported to PC, right?

With extra exclusive content, no less. So there might still be a sliver of hope, however pointless.

Yup. If anything MUA2 for PC would be released a few months after (probably 4-6 months) so they avoid the initial hype and actually get sales instead of it just being pirated. This was probably the mentality behind Force Unleashed.
Please do not contact me for any help in modding-related matters.
It is likely that you'll find what you need by searching the forum.

That I did not know, sorry guys, been a while since I got a new game.
Been out of the loop.
Aspyr Media?Never actually heard of them, hope it's properly optimized.
I'm still not sure about MUA2 hitting the PC though, guess we'll see.

(Aspyr Media? I think they made Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4 aswell, but not sure at the moment).

Yeah, Aspyr handled OODLES of console-2-PC (and several PC-2-Mac based on those) ports for Activision, including Guitar Hero 3 and several Tony Hawks. Dey be tight, mon.

That does not fill me with confidence...
Anyway, if it will be done, I'd guess it will be after all the DLC, then they'll pack it up, call it "Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2: Ultra Super Beanie Baby Collectors Director's Cut Edition" and ship it with at least two delays.

Why wouldn't that fill you with confidence?  EVERY Aspyr game in the last 5 years that's been ported is 100% faithful to the console versions, whether the game is awesome, or whether it sucks.  Only a few older games are different on the PC/Mac, such as 007: Nightfire.

That's the problem, faithful ports tend to be exactly like console versions, including the shabby camera and strained controls.

Well, you can't have a perfect game!

True, although I always thought The Witcher came pretty damn close.
But honestly, I don't care how bad it'll be, I'll still get it, if the controls and the camera will be THAT horrible we can always make some mods and fixes.
