Gears of War for PC, Gold, Excited

I loved Gears on the XBox, but I am not sure if I would spendf $50 to play it again on the PC. UT4 and COD4 look like better choices.

I played through Gears on the Xbox again last week. That game is AWESOME.

No demo no buyA1B2C3CAL

I might be late on the scene but no demo?:|, wouldn't people have at least wanted to know how well it would run on their systems before buying

I'll be getting gears again for the new content I guess and the far easier to access Multiplayer. They arent gonna be making it one of these Vista-Only GFWL things are they?

Ive played the UT3 demo, and Im not convinced, its actually quite dull compared to previous installments.

He's saying that if they do not release a demo, then he is not going to buy the game.

For those of you who have played it on the 360, how do you THINK the controls will beon the keyboard? I'm really looking forward to this game but don't want to buy a gamepad.dahwnpapaya

I wondered the same thing, great game or not a crappy control system can ruin a game.

i've got it on pre-order, but i'm not too excited for it

it's a decent game, but the only real appeal for me is the coop, and even that isn't all that spectacular - and, of course, the visuals... i'm not too into eye candy, but UT3 is the best looking game i have ever played and i'm sure gears will look every bit as good... and sometimes it is just nice to play a really beautiful looking game

my main hope is that some very talented pseudo-professional team makes a warhammer 40k mod - that would just be awesome

I was w8ting for this game since the Xbox360 realease .... i just like the intense oprah music & bloody firefights & the remise of the story ....to bad that hte characters waren't that evolved in story backgorund buti ts fine ..... the gameplay is nice alltough seen before it was never used in a sci-fi setting before ..i'm talking about the covering system & the chainsawy & hammer of dawn are innovative + the sprint ideea ...i just can't remember of a tactical game to have sprint !

Olso w8-ing for TimeShift ...a game with true innovative gameplay & superb A.I. like in FEAR ..be on a loookout !

I just hope the rennovation on Timeshift was worth it.

But yeah, controls, Id be thinking summat along these lines;

WASD/Arrows - movement, strafe
Standard mouse look/click to fire, right click to zoom,
Mousewheel - cycle weapons
'E' - contextual action

If you want to know how it will run just download the damn UT3 demo. :/mmmd

is that true?

Nah already wasted £40 for the 360 version... and allI can say is dont get too hyped for it, its SP is great nothing more than that and the MP is down right awfull.sadikovic

...LMAO no only will it have the glitches and unfair advantages but their will be PC hack user's :lol:, thats my honest opinion it goess for every shooter on PC they always get beaten to death with the your not goin to enjoy it much stick when it comes to online MP; unless you play only with friends and lock the server with a password.

EDIT: This coming from an experienced admin for a server, I have server's for TF2, CSS, BF2, UT04 and I havent had one day of my admin life where I haven't had to ban or whitness a ban of a hacker.

When there aren't any admins on a server and your really enjoy it; i mean having complete fun and boom someone Speed hacks past you in CSS... since there's no admin your forced to leave and that motivated me to make a server with 24hr admin supervion ;)

No demo no buyA1B2C3CAL

I feel the same way, its a shock we haven't had a demo released for it yet. I managed to play UT3 on high settings with a decent framrate and smooth performance but with no demo released for GoW then i'm reluctant to purchase it.

The game might look and perform great on a PC but if the controls suck or haven't been ported properly it can ruin a game, no matter how good or well it runs.

If I understand correctly, Epic is handling the port themselves, which is a strong indicator there's nothing to worry about. Worst case you wait for a review and see if some unlikely problems popped up during translation to the PC.

Outside of that, if you're denying yourself one of the best (single-player) games of the last several years just because there's no demo - just be aware it's your HUGE loss.

NO DEMO??? NO SALE.

who's excited? i am. i have a xbox360, but i've been waiting for it to come to PC. it looks great. I hope it runs great, I don't have a top of the line PC, but I hope to max this game out. Can we expect a demo? Either way, this game is looking great, I hope it has a big online population, making it all the worth waiting for it to come on pc rather than getting it on 360ncderek

You could overclock that CPU to 2.8ghz easily with a aftermarket cooler like an Arctic Freezer Pro or something.

My brother has it for 360, but I'll be picking up the PC version sometime. I dont like controllers very much.

Im very excited on getting Gears of War for the PC. The game have been given really high marks for the x360, so it will be worth on getting.

I am really looking forward Gears of War. Why so many great titles arrive on the Xbox360 first these days? Thankfully they wait hasn't been so long, but now I want Mass Effect... (The review is here: http://www.n4g.com/M/8/Images//74000/74437.jpg).

Anyway we PC players have been getting quite some good games this year, so it is probably ok that Xbox360 players have some exclusives.

I am also quite happy that Unreal Engine 3 runs well on my already dated PC, so Gears of War should play great on it too.

I'll wait for a review, although no demo really isn't convincing me to purchase.firefly026

I believe space bar is the main action button.

as I own this for 360 already.. I would be willing to buy it again for PC.. But I need to know how it plays before i buy it...So no demo no buy...

I was gonna put that. but then I thought of the standard configs of other games. but considering hand positioning on a keyboard, they could do that.
