VE are reporting it's going to the PC in the next month or so according to Bethesda. Also OXM UK scored this game 7.8/10 if anyone cares.

This game is like 4 years too late. The screenshots, last I looked, look very dated. |

Honestly, I'm shocked the game ever was released. Oh, and VE is still around, but they mostly just link to worthlessplaying, and throw in a few random stories. |

Whoa, this game has been in limbo for years, then all of a sudden it's released? Looks like crap now too.
Meh, rental at best. Too bad, it looked promising when it was first announced. |

Eidolon -
But they make taking the pill that is gameplay that much easier to swallow. Graphics make up a huge part of the overall experience. If you are lacking graphically, you will have to do something truly amazing to get the normal gamer interested in you. Cthulu isn't well known out of nerdum, and the graphics are sub par in this day and age, so it will fail. |

"Well, the wait is finally over, as Dark Corners of the Earth will be shipping this week for Xbox. It appears that PC and PS2 versions of the game are no longer set for release, so if you need your dose of impending soul-crushing Lovecraftian horror, now's the time."
Looks like we may not get a PC release at all.
