    this game is incredible and has all the makings of game of the year.. I really hope they bring it to PC so more people can experience it. I haven't stop playing it since I got it and every time I think things are getting repetitive the story moves me forward with new dino machines and things to hunt. The only thing that would make this game off the charts is if you were able to craft different types of weapons and outfits, instead of buying them from merchants.. Other than that I am loving my time in the game...

    I agree with Elvoc, this game is quite amazing. I'm really impressed with the story of the game. I find myself learning a new bit of the mystery of the game only to immediately hijack a new robo mount and gallop off to the next location to uncover the next bit of the story, while feeling a bit guilty that I'm passing side story quests along the way.

    I can't help feeling the game feels alot like playing Demon's Souls when it first came out. Knowing that the game has really hit on something different than all the other developers are doing and knowing that it's success is going to impact the game industry in a good way.

    Like others have said, they need to do some work with the cut scenes and making the mouth match closer to the words being spoken. While the game has a good assortment of different type of ranged weapons, it doesn't look like it gives you any way of obtaining different melee weapons than what you start out with. I would hope in the sequel they decide to give you choices when it comes to melee weapons.

    It baffles me why this is a PS4 exclusive. If it was on PC i know i'd be playing it right now.

    This game is blowing my mind. Such a beautiful and engaging world, awesome work.

    Hunting, crafting, clearing bandit camps and a strong story line to follow.

    Masterpiece of a game!

    So that more more people will buy the PS4 that is what exclusives are meant to do. Hardly baffling. Ace product drums up interest.

    The Sony PS crew must be over the moon with the reception Zero Dawn is getting, specially after last year's disastrous PR around No Man's Sky.

    Guerrilla Games is owned by Sony. It should not surprise you that it's a PS4 exclusive :P

    Still, you have to wonder why Sony does not capitalize on the opportunity to sell a PC version of its exclusives a year after the PS4 version launch. 

    Just seems like they are leaving money on the table...

    If you check out Guerila Games, then you know the answer.

    Clunky console gameplay ported to PC no thanks, let it stay on consoles.

    On the other hand, if it helps to shift more consoles then it's putting more money in Sony's pocket.

    GTA V is an incredible game too. So the "exclusive" arguments are moot.
