GEARS pc review

They must be running that footage on low. Looks pretty bad on those videos, but it should be good to play the new parts.
 
Wow just wow, they used lower than max settings for a review of a game... idiotic.

That's blatantly Low settings if you ask me.

Edit: Actually more Medium I'd say, the first bit of the video looks awful.
 
well surely it was always going to be better than the 360 version? More content in both single player and multiplayer on release, much higher resolution graphics with (useless) DX10 features and if you don't like keyboard and mouse you can play with a xbox360 controller.

It was never going to be a bad port, Epic have had their roots in PC gaming since the beginning, also if gears, a fully fledged unreal 3 engine game ran badly it would be a terrible advert for their engine to consumers and developers alike.
 
I hate how they give a negative about "steep system requirements" in nearly all good looking pc games. Unreal 3 engine actually runs well so it's YOUR FAULT if you haven't got a system to play it on
 
Well theres gameplay videos of it running on an 8600gt, e6600 and 2gb ram (not exactly high-end) on Gametrailers, and it looks good to me.
 
Spose its worth playing for the new content, but to be honest i really cba going through it all again, after about 2 times os playing it gets incredibly boring, for me anyway
 
how can you base the game's graphics on that video, my mouse pointer is about 4 blocks of that video

they've just used a shocking compression codec on it, what do you expect?
 
God you lot are a bunch of whingers and I can't believe your all so ready to write it off on the basis of a low quality video - the reviewer has said it looks better than the 360 version, I think it's pretty safe to say he's not lying. Get a grip kiddies.

i may be completely wrong but from what i thought i was reading from the replies in this thread is that yeah the game is going to look better but how stupid to write a review not using the max settings.

like i said might be comepltely wrong but that's what i thougth was being said

[edit]

is this game actually any good? i hear so much about it but it looks so not fun. Every video i have seen is basically just hide behind an item and shoot until you kill the enemy. Also the characters are that unrealistic, too cocky, im here for fun type of people which i don't really like.

Gears is a fun game, especially the multiplayer. It'll be a lot better on PC too mainly because of dedicated servers, no shotgun lag thank god, that plagued the 360 version.
