Epic goes through the trouble of making GFW LIVE build into the UNreal engine, and they don't even use it... They are lucky I love gears and have 360's, or I'd put them on the same boat as EA for being b@stards...

It's just something people have to deal with.

Doesn't mean it doesnt suck... They don't even seem to offer a reason, just a "no"... Just sucks thats all...

It was the perfect oppurtunity to showcase they are behind LIVE, and could have made it Cross-Platform, but instead they just abandon it....

We've just seen a lot of the same threads over the last couple of day.

You have a 360 so why do you even care?

Because the woman plays too, and with only 1 360 and a gaming PC we were able to play Shadowrun together... was looking forward to that on Gears 2...

Kinda lame when you think about it... a game that tanked horribly had more solid online play than Gears did... LOL

this has already been posted but how is it bull****, im actully happy because now pc gamers wont keep bugging us with the "is gears2 going to come out for pc yet" i mean if they get it then they get it, just like hooligun posted before. dont get me wrong lots of pc games are awesome, its just that this game is an xbox 360 exclusive and even when pc gamers see that, they just keep asking when is it coming out and its annoying as ****. Its also funny how when hooligun posted this same thread up, some pc gamers where like "oh yeah well gears sucks anyways" if they think that, than why are they in the gears forums anyways? lol

As far as exclusives go for the console, I think MS should make it MS exclusive, and not shut out Windows as a platform...

They had the opportunity from the ground up to make GoW2 cross platform ready.... Who knows, they could be playing us and built it in just in case... Gears runs great on my PC, and the Cross PLatfrom play with Shadowrun worked great. I have the WiFi adapter so my headset and controller sync up flawlessly, and I have a seemless, console-esqe experience on my PC... why would you NOT want to make that more the norm?

It's a shame - Epic is a member of the PCGA and make that sh!t. The others PCGA-Member should throw Epic out of the alliance and M$ too. F... dissembler :mad:

Look at all the help threads made from GoW on PC. All of them are for PC!
Imagine that for GoW2.
