If this were true, this would be a large boost to the seemingly dead Games for Windows platform, particularly after a non-existent showing at this year's E3, where none of the titles shown displayed the banner or Live logo on the box.
When pressed, Microsoft denied that a PC version of Gears of War 2 was coming, saying "There are no plans to bring the game to the PC."
IGN.com 's page for the rumor
Its sad alright. Being a PC gamer from day one and not turning to consoles simply because they cost three times their MRP in SL, I remember the pain I went through just to get the game running. The first copy installed in fifty minutes, marveled at the beauty of all the rendering and gore. I played up to the level of The Tomb. Got ripped apart by the Berserker nearly 25 times and then I gave up out of frustration. I got the game 6 months later and was disappointing to find out it did not work. I ended buying six copies of the game, my last in '09 and then found out it was all due to a certificate expiry that the game crashed at the point of initializing. All I had to do was change the date, and presto, my six copies of the game and countless hours trying to install the damn thing payed off with me finishing it on all skill levels. Started with the multiplayer after that and made it a point to make the title my favorite past time. Its April, 2010 and I haven't played the second title yet :'(... That's so fucking sad
Fuck Cliffy..
Fuck Epic...
...and Fuck Games for Microsoft
My tribute to the first title! Fucking love this!
