If I was a PC gamer I would be extremely upset after the megaton that is Gears of war 2. It has made your platform irrelevant as the best shooter is now console exclusive. What good is a Quad core PC if it can only run games that are second best to Gears 2 in all areas?. Gears 2 has the best graphics, sound, online play ever seen in a game. And you hermits can never play it.

Gears 2 has made your platform irrelevant and killed it stone dead. I can't go back to PC gaming after playing Gears 2,PC gaming is so weak and flawed in comparison. If you had played Gears 2 you would know what I'm talking about

Best game ever, on Xbox 360 only, jump in.

It is not best game ever I like MGS4 better plus WOrld of Warcraft is better. Lich king is about to come out. Gear 2 wasn't that great so calm down.

Thank you for your opinion.

 

Want mine now?

-Gears 2 is nowhere near the best shooter ever.

-Gears 1 was average at best.

-The whole gears serie  = 8/10

It has the best graphics? I'm sorry, what the hell are you talking about? Someone Crysis blitz this thread.

Everything else is just your own ridiculous opinion. How about you broaden your horizons and try playing Civ IV, then get back to me.

Haha! Is this guy serious? Most PC gamers found GOW 1 boring and that was built with better visuals/more content than the 360 version, the online failed because so few people wanted to play it.

Why would we want a second dose of that? It was short and had no replay value.

Thanks for your biased standpoint 

Stalker and Crysis crush Gears of War 2's graphics and sound. PC online multiplayer has tons of RTS and MMORPGs that will never see light of day on consoles.

hahahaha, are you from microsoft???

but anyways, gears of war was a very average and flashy looking game, i got it for pc, somehwta enjoyed it, got quite repetitve and felt like i had to force myself to finish it than actually want to finish it, and online became boring fast especially with the small/dieing community and all the other dozens of brilliant online pc games

and im sure i speak for a high majority of pc gamers, couldnt care less whether or not gears of war 2 to makes its way to PC

Instead of being pretend embarassed if you were a PC gamer, why don't you be REAL embarassed for demonstrating a great deal of ignorance and unwarranted self importance, instead?

Funny thread. I've never seen Crysis in action but even I know it murders Gears 2 graphically, along with any other 360 game.

Last time I checked the platform is still going on very strong. Gears 2 is not the best shooter. I wasn't a big fan of Gears 1 and don't care for Gears 2. Far Cry 2 is a much better shooter (at least the PC version is), and if you had played Crysis Warhead you wouldn't have made this post. Crysis Warhead LOOKS MILES better then Gears 2, I don't see how you could even say Gears 2 has the best graphics in any game. You obviously were never a PC gamer to begin with and just want to troll.

My last PC maxed out the original Gears pretty well, and back then I didn't have a 360 (I do now) so I was throughly dissapointed with the game, sure it looked great for a console port, but the gameplay I found underwhelming, so I didn't bother picking up Gears 2.

I guess when you have no games to compare to, Gears 2 must look great.

You're making us look bad. Look, Gears 2 is awesome - I'm enjoying it more than I did Crysis - but it doesn't mean the PC is irrelevant.

A. It has made your platform irrelevant as the best shooter is now console exclusive.

B. What good is a Quad core PC if it can only run games that are second best to Gears 2 in all areas?.

C. Gears 2 has the best graphics, sound, online play ever seen in a game. And you hermits can never play it.

NickD09

A. Tons of people would disagree with you on this one, and even if we consider it true, it doesn't singlehandedly discredit the PC because there are tons of games other than shooters that are still worth playing. Also, just because one game is the best game ever doesn't mean every game that isn't it must be terrible. PC still has the largest volume of highly rated games. 

B. I was unaware of the fact that a game needed good graphics, sound, and online play to be great. Please wait while I throw out my copies of Peggle, Sam & Max Series, Sins of a Solar Empire, etc. Also, remember my not best =/= terrible point from the A.

C.
1)Crysis Warhead

3) Team Fortress 2

:lol:

Is this serious? Gears 2 is far from the best shooter. Ironically enough, 1. It'll end up on PC just like the original one did (deny it all you want...it's true) and 2. Crysis Warhead scored the same as Gears 2 (and the PC has much higher standards) and is better in every single way. Yes, even online. Gears 2's online is broken. Chainsaw fest FTL. There are much better online shooters on PC old and new. CS:S, Crysis Warhead, DoD Source, Quake 3 Arena (Quake Live), etc. I can go on and on. PC has the highest rated games in terms of AAA/AA exclusives (even just counthing this gen) and multiplats.

When I think of Gears I think "wow another overrated console shooter." The only remdeeming factor of the first one was the COOP. Also not having the option to play a shooter with a keyboard and mouse makes it an instant fail, no exceptions. If you think an overrated mediocre console shooter makes PC gaming irrelevant you probably only have been gaming a very short time.

You do know that the engine running GoW 2 is ridiculously optimised so Windows 98 could probably run it on full settings? And as a PC Gamer I'm happy I don't have to put up with a boring port. Yay mindless marine fun. But if that's what you're into then have fun playing a watered down hardcore PC shooter with gimped game mechanics.Â
