Looking forward to Gears of War: Judgment? We’ve got some bad news for you…

It would be even better if they brought this game to PC, considering controllers blow for FPS/3rd person shooters.

Contrary to popular belief by the so called "PC Master Race" controllers are not that damn bad.

Sorry but when it comes to shooters a mouse is the optimal way to play. It is impossible to get the precision a mouse can give with an analog stick. The only reason shooters ever got popular on consoles was because they brought in auto-aim.

i think you miss understood, Child of Death just means that they are playable with a controller not that it is better then a mouse

Pssh, yeah I tried using a mouse and keyboard for FPS before. 1. Its not comfortable at all 2.I actually still aim better with a controller even without auto aim on and 3. All the buttons you need to know are at the palm of your hand. I just dont understand how can people claim that you cant use a controller and be good. Because one can. The only thing PC gamers have over console players is the ability to mod games and the fact that RTS actually are better played with a keyboard.

Well as far as comfort goes that's really all about personal perspective. Sure when I first started playing shooters on PC it took some getting used to but since I did get used to it console shooters just seem off to me. I'm not saying you just flat out can't be good with a controller, but say if a console player was to play against someone of equal skill, one being a console player and one being a pc player the odds would be in favor of the pc player. Now, if you want to get into what PC has over console it's better hardware, MMO's, more players in our games when devs give a damn about the platform(Battlefield 3 player cap on pc vs console for example), more fast paced games, the ability to not have our hardware hold us back gameplay wise ( ex. Hardware on consoles cause most recent games to not be able to go above 30fps, some even being as low as 20, with no option to lower graphical settings to make the frame rate higher for those that want it), the option to choose how we play(ex. if for some reason I'm in the mood to sit back and play say... Skyrim, with my controller I am free to do so), currently the most prevalent platform in free to play gaming, cheaper games (ex. plenty of game released for console with a 59.99 price get a 49.99 price, sometimes even lower), much more sales, you'll never see gamestop have sales in the same respect that Gamersgate or Steam do. And of course, like you mentioned, we also have mods and the best platform for RTS. Don't get me wrong I have nothing against any form of gaming, I play on any platform I can get my hands on. My most played system in the past month has probably been my PS2. I just don't see why people feel the need to act like a more (arguably) expensive platform isn't able to do more when that's what you absolutely expect. Kind of like buying a camaro over a cobalt, they both do the job of driving perfectly but one has more shiny little features than the other.

Sure your games are ten bucks cheaper... Too bad you have to spend $2000 on a fancy gaming rig when a 360 or PS3 is around $300.

Sorry but when PC gamers go on like that, people just hear "Imadick Imadick Imadick..."

WARNING WARNING HYPERBOLE ALERT

Gears 1 was on PC. It was part of the whole games for windows dealie. I don't know if you would have liked it, but it controlled horribly imo. It felt it was a tad unorthodox.

I can see your point about the advantages of PC hardware over console hardware. I will agree with you there but I can still guarentee that even if I went against a PC gamer with my skill level I can definetely keep up with him/her if not beat them. Anyway thank you for not being arrogant or a dick like the rest of the "PC Master Race" Here's a free cookie :)

PC gamer? Sorry buddy, I'm just a gamer. I play on any platform I can get, I have nothing against any of the platforms.

That being said, Gears 1 was an absolutely horrid PC port though.

Lol that is probably the biggest freaking myth on the planet when it comes to gaming. Let's see my gaming PC can play pretty much anything on high-ultra settings... it cost me the amazing price of $750... Now let's look at the fact that I would have a computer in my household whether it be gaming or not like a lot of people do in this day and age. So let's say I have a desktop within the range of $500-$600, then all I need to get is the graphics card. My card was $150 so my computer is really only a $600rig that I would have had one way or another and I just spent the $150 to make it worth gaming on. Now, let's look at the sales for the games. Last year on the steam summer sale I spent $200 on games, when I looked up how much those games would have cost me either on console or on PC at regular price it would have came to around $600-$650. So I saved $400. Now let's look at console gaming, I go out and spend $300 on a PS3, buy one triple A title that's $60. Oh look I still have my desktop in my home only without a graphics card, and I spent more money in the long run by a pretty big margine. Yup, sooo much more expensive.

That's why some of the best players (who im sure are better than you) play on a 4 or 5.

Damn i was hoping for a dance scene with Baird and Cole that you could act out on Kinect.

No virtual fist bumping? Fuck that, I'm not buying.

Ok so tell me more good news. Is the sawed off taken out? That would be great.

That's one less GAME I have to buy so! :D

Well that was annoying.

My god, don't do that to us! I immediately thought that it had gotten cancelled. *whew* okay breath and resume heart function o.0

Good article, you got us pretty good.

Maybe it is just not right to use Kinect in the new Gears of War game.... the more important thing is that it is going to be a good game overall

I was all like "bad news? did it get cancelled already? I'll never enjoy the company of Cole Train again!" So mean. ;)

Now, what I really want to know is if they are going back to Gears 1-2's 2-player co-op, or if they are going to stick with the 4-player co-op that IMO ruined Gears 3's campaign variation. I liked the missions where you and your co-op partner split up with one of the other AI characters, and then the levels where it was just you and your co-op partner, and it forced you down to being separated and all on your own. Those elements were totally absent from Gears 3.

How is that bad news? Steel battalion was suppose to be better with kinect but it wasn't.
