DICE Cancels Battlefield 1943, BC2 Onslaught for PC

DICE has made the difficult decision to completely drop PC support for the previously XB360 and PS3 exclusive Battlefield 1943 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2's Onslaught mode. This was in order to dedicate as much development effort as possible into the making of Battlefield 3, DICE's next entry into the behemoth Battlefield franchise. Hopefully the loss of these titles will mean Battlefield 3 will be that much better, running on the team's new Frostbite 2 engine. 

According to DICE's general manager, Karl Troedsson, on the Battlefield Blog:

"We know some of you eagerly have been awaiting Battlefield 1943 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Onslaught on PC. I’m sad to say that these two titles are now officially cancelled. Instead, our talented teams will focus on delivering the greatest possible gaming experience in our next behemoth release. We’re confident this will lead to an even better experience in Battlefield 3, not only on PC, but on all platforms."

Will it be worth the loss? I certainly hope so.
