most likely. Epic has stated that it will happen eventually. Following a leaked screenshot of a GFW stand with gears of war on it.

yes, seeing as how the engine supports it.

It will also probably be Vista only since it is published by MS.

It was said that Epic will port it to the PC (unless they redo the game for the PC), but don't expect it anytime soon.

Epic is likely busy finishing UT3 and making it awesome, and they'll probably work to optimise GOW for PC after its release.

In a perfect world that is....

they could just release a crappy PC version a-la Halo PC.

like most developers, they will tend to come up with a reason why they moved a franchise to a console (IE. Unreal tournament) and the main reason is that they want more money, the fake reason they give is saying the PC is dying.

GOW will come to PC, that guy from Epic was just full of his dolor bills to tell the truth.

If they do Release it on PC they will probably take away the Coop Gameplay...Just like they did in Halo 1 for PC.

The PC will get GeOW. The bothering questions are: when will it be released. And who will be responsible for porting it. As life shows the best xbox franchise- Halo serie wasn't well ported. You have to keep your fingers crossed that GeOW won't share that fate.

UT is the beast, after Counter Strike of course. I mean, GeOW gets old pretty fast and I've been playing UT2004 for years and it never gets old.

Although graphics aren't much to go by for the quality of a game, according to Epic; "UT3 is going to make Gears of war look ugly"
Plus on PC and FPS you can actually look closer at the visuals.

They do seem to be trying to make the gameplay a little more fun by going back to their roots rather than recreating the flying in UT'04.

I'm sure after they optimize the engine Gears wouldn't be hard to make... and besides; Its another sweet Unreal Engine Game... Yes I'm an Unreal engine whore, but it's hard to NOT be.

I just hope the gameplay in UT3 isn't the same as UT 2004. Too frantic with no teamwork

A seperate Battlefield game is in development for PCs, which hasn't been nerfed for consoles. :)
