ok i just saw the trailer, this is getting me pissed, gears is a good game, but this is taking it too far!

why do the vista owners get better stuff than the xbox people?

I thought you were bullshitting. Sounds pretty awesome, but I really wish they'd release the extra missions for free on the XBLM (not going to happen...hopefully we'll at least get them at a small price).

thats what im saying, i dont like how vista owners get cooler stuff. and i want extra gears stuff too but the reality is that when gears for PC comes out the xbox version will be put in the back burner.

That looks like a totally differnt GoW...Like expansion on story?
That'd suck though if it remained only on PC. erhaps itll come later or for a high price (I think all but perhaps a few things on the marketplace are a ripoff)

Yeah, it really does suck for a company to get its customers to migrate from obsolete operating systems by providing incentives.

...it's business. For example, Apple would NOT have large percentages of its installed base on the latest OS X (Tiger), if they didn't provide exclusives (I can't remember the specific percent of people that are up-to-date, but I know it's quite large). People have to suck it up, and not get stuck behind on things that are obsolete. Progress DOES happen, you just have to accept that what you've been used to for 6 years won't always stay that way.

But alas. Gears of War looks pretty sick...I can't believe I still haven't gotten a chance to play it. I have to bug my friend who's getting a 360 to buy it...

The new multiplayer maps and campaign missions do look like fun. Hopefully it will be available for the 360 later on.

It damn well better be. >:[ *shakes fist menacingly*

I might get another pc with vista just to play GoW

Wow! If my parents let me get that I'm definitely picking a copy up. I've never played gears but I've heard from my friends how good it is. (you can read my comment on the vid)

offtopic: I was looking at the comments, everyone was saying how you can build a super ubar 1337 pc for $800... man... hurry up technology, make it so you can build a custom laptop! Geez.

It would be great if they could add on that part of campaign somehow for xbox 360 and the new maps as well. My computer just isnt good enough for games like that and it pisses me off.

I see nothing that points that this is for PC, about 28 seconds in the move prompt comes up showing a xbox 360 button. I somehow doubt this is for PC, probably new content for the 360 version. I'd think there'd be an anouncement from epic games first...

You already can. Sites like the following, offer tons of customizable looks, and hardware:

Looks better than GoW on the 360.

The 360 must be shocking if a youtube video can look better than the 1080i version of gears of war!

Also, upon seeing the video again, where does it suggest once that its for PC other than the name? I see the x button icon and the like in the video.

I'm gonna go make a video title "halo 3 pc" and put a video of halo 3 in it

I meant gameplay wise, there seems to be more to the campaign than GoW 360.

xbox PC controller?

if its not gears 2 they will probably have the patch able be downloaded on the marketplace. they added a second campaign and new multiplayer maps like they did with Brute Force

thats a prompt for the pc....the 360 prompt looks nothing like that..

actually upon further looking at it, it looks like an x button which would make no sense.

It could be a 360 controller being used for PC... That is possible right?

Yes it is.
