Called it. So very long ago, along with so many others.
PC is the platform they should have had from the beginning.

And speaking for the PC master race, the PS3 might have limited following...
But we are legion.

One of them being that I intend to go read the Dust forums in a bit.
...Am I a bad person?
Ripard Teg thinks so.
I, on the other hand, am going into their forums with my galoshes on.

Hey, now I'll have something I can play to wait out global criminal countdown timers.

And lol people thinking that this will actually do any good. There are so many FPS titles on PC and it directly has to compete with planetside 2. I predict a massive player drop on the PS3 after this "keynote". You cant even barely call that a keynote, they just advertised dust for PC and thats it. poor performance compared to last years keynote if ya ask me.
Planetside 2 has been running itself into the ground for months now.
Their only real competition is Team Fortress 2 and Titanfall, which are both high quality FPS games with good exposure. That said, TF2 is older and more outdated than DUST is, and Titanfall has a purchase price.
There's a niche for it, believe me. If they put it on Steam, even for 5 bucks, they'll be rolling.

An excerpt from their forums:
Dusties wrote:Eve online is full of the biggest, fattest, greasiest neckbeards this world has ever known. They can laugh at us now but we get to laugh at them every time they step out of their mom's basements.
Well, he's right about one thing. We can laugh at them now.

I wouldn't be surprised if Legion becomes the 'base' code, and CCP subsequently ports it to PS4 and Xbone with a later announcment of Dust514's code stream's demise. My further prediction is that while Legion will run on PC, PS4 and Xbone -- due to inherent play differentials of mouse vs. controller (as prototyped by MS game-matching PC and X360 players in the same game), all three platforms would integrate with EvE but not each other. i.e. Matchmaking would remain PS4 to PS4, Xbone to Xbone, and PC to PC -- all having hooks into EVE. F
Interestingly, if they were to work at it, and if they slowed the overall speed of play by a small amount, they could integrate each one together.
Notably this has been done with the new Final Fantasy(Realm Reborn I think it's called), it has cross system support.

Feyd Rautha Harkonnen wrote:...also I think the selection of the name 'Legion' is possibly an easter egg. Legion is a biblical reference to a clarification that a demon wasn't singular, but multiple entities. i.e. WE are Legion. I wonder if CCP named it Legion as a subtle hint that the strategy is to put it on multiple platforms in the future. F
I think it's actually a reference to the "one launcher for 3 games" thing they plan on.
