    And that reason, among others, is why I bought the game used at launch. MS/Epic aren't going to develop a version of the game for my preffered platform? Well fuck you, MS/Epic. I gave my $55to EB Games instead.

    @Atheist Jew: So instead you support the 'crackhead steals the game and sells it to EB' economy. Good work.

    So when is Cliffy gonna drop the 360? Those are getting pirated almost just as fast. Hell, they pirate them before the games actual release now.

    That means Gears of War "PS"3.

    Why the hell is my Kotaku filled with Gears of War 2 articles and nothing else? Page after page of GoW2 articles from last year... and no news.

    Question is would anyone care about a Gears 2 PC release, I'm guessing no.


    Gears 1 PC was a complete failure despite being the better version and Gears 2 would share the same fate. That's why it is very unlikely a Gears 2 is in the works unless Epic like burning money.


    Some games are just too attached to a platform and wont sell no matter what.

    Main reason why I don't have a 360 is because I have a nice gaming PC to play all of it's "exclusives" on.

    While "Bears of War" would be the visual pun...it would be much more amusing to pronounce it "Beers of War" to go with the audio pun. ;)

    In reply to Last Year, World Of Warcraft Guild Leader Also Won Oscar
    Most significant part of this to me is evidence that WoW guild masters, leaders, raid leaders, etc., can also be successful in life. I'm sure there are cases of the opposite but when I played, some of the smartest people I met were leaders of guilds.

    @Lincolnsbeard33: Golden Compass fares better than either Transformers or Pirates in my opinion thanks to a wide variety of imagery to play with throughout the film, where every scene is something new and doesn't appear to be padded with scenes from Dawson's Creek or previous Disney movies.
