No one can afford shit anymore. The game is $80, that's insane.

Yeah.. plus games typically sell best after their initial release. This is a 2 year old game coming out so theres way less coverage if any from major outlets, etc.

Yeah I'm guessing that the people who loved it the most probably already had a PS and played it there.

I do like seeing former PS exclusives combing to PC. I played through the FFVII remake on PC and will happily order ep2 when it comes. I'm looking at picking up TLOU when I'm done my current game (and if it comes on sale), plus maybe Uncharted if the price is right, but price is a consideration and the type of person likely to throw $80 on a new game probably already got it elsewhere.
