In
this interview Stewart Gilray states that he really doesn't want to release a PC/Mac/Linux version of New 'n' Tasty. Guess that would explain why Playstation has been getting so much love from JAW and OWI lately and the PC platform have been hung out to dry (Munch HD? Where is it?).
While the article (or Gilray) doesn't flat out say the PC version will be intentionally delayed, it's pretty much implied.
:
[Gilray] expects to ship the title to third-party testing in the next week or two, with submission to Sony for PS3, PS4, and Vita release immediately thereafter. A release for PC, Mac, and Linux will follow approximately a month later, with a Wii U version planned for later down the line.

Of course piracy is mentioned as the major reason for delaying PC platform versions, which is major bullshit if you ask me. Sure it would affect some sales, but not nearly as much as games with a physical release.
Thief, for instance, is set to release in three days (on all platforms at once) but the console versions for both PS3 and Xbox 360 have been leaked almost a week in advance. PC version? Nowhere to be found through illegal channels.
Reason for it leaking this early? Physical copies have to be distributed around the world. Easy to steal a copy and throw the contents online.
A month long delay for the PC version of New 'n' Tasty would be complete BS and I thoroughly hope this won't be the case. Steam has established itself as a platform solid enough to combat piracy for the last few years. Please reconsider this idiotic stance on release dates and just release everything at the same time. Thanks!
