Does this mean you are planning a Windows version of "Gears of War 2"?

Cliff: Gears of War is a great franchise first and foremost for Xbox 360, and therefore we're focusing on that platform for Gears of War 2. We've decided we're not going to do a PC version this time around.

Wow, this is interesting. I really enjoyed the PC version as much as the Xbox 360 one.

well they were saying similar things before gears launched. then there was complete denial for about 8 months. then a year later the PC version came out. so ill take that with a pinch of salt.

however gears on PC did very poorly from what i hear (what did they expect from a game that was a year late?). so maybe they actually wont bother.

but for now..the salt supplement applies i think.

Yeah, I'm with you. This is a marketing stunt, which is alright since they've done it before. I'm just going to take it with as little salt as possible.

Cliffy B, you can never take him seriously. It'll be on PC. Don't worry.

Not at all. The really hardcore hermits on this forum claim to hate Gears,and the rest of them have 360's.

Get real people.He is only saying it so people who would be willing to wait for the vastly superior version will pick up the 360 version and then the PC version whenever it comes.An indirect response to that question would obviously mean that ya there will be a PC version.

whether it is coming to pc ever or not, who the hell cares, that game got boring very quickly after 1 playthrough, and us "hermits" got TONS of other games to look forward to for the rest of the year

and thats only the stuff coming out this year, not including the gems that will be coming out next year, starcraft 2, project origin, DoW2, diablo 3, etc, etc, etc

Why would he sit there and say buy the 360 version if there is also a pc version? He doesn't care WHICH platform they buy it from since he's not Microsoft. If he had a PC version in his back pocket, what difference would it make if people bought it for either platform? If the PC version was so f'ing superior why didn't it sell as good on a platform that has so many more users? Nice logic. :roll:

Why would MS have to PAY him to say that? He is probably lying, but on his own initiative. I'm sure MS doesn't have to pay him to say something that could possibly make his game sell better.

You make cows look pretty bad.

This really is a no win situation. Ciffy says its not coming to PC, so hermits laugh and say he's lying. If the game never comes to the PC, hermits dont care, it was overated trash anyway, they have much better games to be playing. If it does go to PC, lemmings am owned, all the hermits will be playing the superior version.

Because he's said the same thing before (as with MANY, MANY other devs). Look what happened.

Sales agree with this statement. Nobody bought it anyways.

If it does go to PC, lemmings am owned, all the hermits will be playing the superior version.-DrRobotnik-

Well, more freatures, more levels, free and superior online, better graphics... sounds like a better version to me.

LO ****ing L right back at you, lemming.

The same was said about the first. 2 months after release, the PC version was confirmed, with a lower price and the update for free.

Exactly. I personally would never wait for a game that long knowing its out on another platform, even if it is a little prettier with higher frame rates.

Just like GTA IV wasn't supposed to come to PC :P

Gears of War on PC was a broken game out of the box for many people.. It was so bad I couldn't even boot the freakin game on an ATI vid card out of the box.. took community hacks to get it to just boot until months of waiting for patches..

>.> PC is their primary platform,and LoL @ you. I'm mostly a "lemming",^_^ but I really take no sides. I'm just in it for the games and could care less which one wins as long as I get good games.
