Gears of War (PC)

It was suppose to be released on the 6th. Stores around here didn't release it until the 7th, and I got my copy today.

Pretty nice. I enjoy it. I can put it on highest settings and its kind of choppy, so I lowered the settings and it was still choppy-ish. So I put it back on HIGH graphics and its great. The chainsaw bayonet has to be the best thing ever. Just getting up close and personal to e-saw some monster-bastard's arm off....ahhhh....nothing like it.

Good game, I recommend if your computer can take it otherwise it wouldn't be worth it.

Port? I'm guessing laptop?
I got mine from Alienware and spent a pretty penny on it. So yes, the graphics are great and runs alright. There are many bugs in the game, but not so inhibiting to game play.

The biggest issue I have is the save issues. IT doesn't save right, but I found (through an accident) ways around that. But a lot of people are having crash issues. Again, they found ways around it. I'm just glad I don't have the crash issues.
Just awaiting a patch. GG though.

It was good for the 36, and not much better for the Pc. It isnčt worth buying again for the extra content if you already have a 360 and want to play it on the PC. It was NOT worth waiting a year to get it on the Pc.

Companies need to start being nicer to Pc owners.
