So, does anyone know just how easy it is to port an XBox game to a PC? Surley it can't be that hard. And if the game were distributed via Steam...

It would be so easy for OWI to hire a cheap, talented third party team to quickly put together a PC port of the games, and then to sell it for, say, £20 on Steam.

It makes sense- its a cheap and quick way of giving Muches Oddysee another chance to do well.

Anyway, I am considering buying an XBox- probally not for a few months, budget is tight atm, but maybe in the future.
You need to wake up and smell the cheese here pal, doing something like that would easily rake the cost up to about £300,000~ish, so there is no way thats going to happen, its too much of a risk.
