I absolutely LOVE Payday 2 on PC! I was a bit thrown off how they handled the 360/PS3 versions of the game, but do understand just how hard it is to get content put out onto those consoles, as well as some of the archaic terms those systems had for requirements. With Xbox One and PS4 though, I just hope that content will be smoother to get out onto those consoles so those wanting the full Payday 2 experience can get it on the consoles. I know I will probably end up Pre-Ordering the game to get the discount and look forward to the game being launched for the new consoles.
