Continues,clones and redeems

I don't know if only I'm so shortsigthed, but I think I'm really not understanding a few things properly. Would somebody enligth me why Surreal has -umm- finished-off Drakan for PC?? I thougth it is a good enough to continue. But not. Only for PS2!! If the PC-players need a game, then they will write one for themselves!?? (thanks for DO:TQ)
I don't think that Drakan2 or DO:TQ would a so bad choice for Surreal to continue. Many likes these games, and there almost no opponents on the market (just look at Flying Heroes or at the Dragonrider. ;( OMG... ). The only problem here is this too simple. If I would be Surreal, I would hastly try to get DO:TQ(of course only in case it would remain free for us) and try to get rigths for Drakan2 for PC. (OK, Sony bougth the rigths. But not D2 would be first game which has been adapted to PC from a console). The only thing they will reach this way is that they will loose a big game. Even if they will do a game again, it will be harder to get it bougth by people(harder then to make them buy Drakan2...), because of tons of poor quality stuff(games mentioned above).It's a pity.<img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>
Anyway, as long as there so many player created levels, I'm going to hope.(and start to spare money for a PS2...)
I'm sorry for writing and sucking down other games, but I wanted to show how many bad games can be created from a good topic(all of them could have been as good as Drakan. As for the Dragonrider: shame on the ones who created the controls!!!)
