So you are certain that they are going to have features in the PC version that
will differ on the console versions? What you are not saying, and that which I
am inferring, is that it being developed on PC means that it will take
advantage of the better system and then features will be removed so that it
will work on the slower hardware of the consoles.

If not then the fact that they are writing it on a PC ends up being somewhat
irrelevant if they will be writing the game to work optimally on the lowest
common denominator anyway.
