Go to cover (A button) =E Key

Look out of Cover (Hold left trigger) = Hold spacebar and either W,S,A,D for look out in that direction

Mouse = Aim

All together = WIN!

With threads like these I wouldn't be surprised if the unusually high failure rate for 360s was in fact attributed to user error.

Unless you mean the Gears disc will emit some kind of foul odor, you're wrong. It will play and look great. If not better. High end PCs have already surpassed what the 360 can graphically produce. Now images like the one below may be possible because the 360 gears does not look this good. I own a 46" 1080P Sony Bravia and it doesn't come close to the pic.

It'll be just like Halo and Halo 2 to PC. Hate using KB/M for them.

Gears is a console shooter through and through.

Does this mean HL2 on 360/PS3 are going to suck control wise? As HL2 is a PC shooter, through and through.

Any game can work on M/KB if done correctly and vice versa.

The level of stupidity on these forums outclasses that of any other.

not really. there have been console games ported to pc where the keyboard/mouse have been utulized horribly. Not saying that is the case with epic's gears of war. since they are mostly known as pc developers first before making console games.

Its ok, im pretty pissed about the PC port as well

its almost like..."why did i buy a 360 again"

coulda bought an 8800GTX and saved some money

i just hope Epic realeses the content free on XBL silver

R-Dot-Yung

comments like that i realy think you are just trying to bash on the 360. cause you ended up staying off topic and plus you been posting basically the same thing on most of the gears topic that are being made right now. honestly if you are displeased with the 360 maybe you should just sell it and use that money towards on buying the 8800GTX.

But that's the fault of the developers. To say that a game is innately incompatible with a keyboard and mouse is just dumb.

Cool. I'll pick this one up on the cheap. The only reason I could see buying a 360 would be for GOW and Dead Rising. Why buy one if the games all come to PC? I'll stick with my PCWii combo.

Gears isn't so much about precise aiming as it is using cover right. If they throw in the 360's "randomness" it wouldn't make a difference.

You are not getting what he trying to say, he's not saying that the x360 controller would be better for the game than KB/M, he's saying that making a statement that the PC would have worse controls than the x360 is stupid because the PC can use either KB/M or the X360 controller (or the ps3 controller, or the wii controller, depending on the situation)
