Gears of war will be a poor port :( (proof inside)

well the gameplay and stuff is going to be awesome..but like lost planet and other bad ports..just look at the video ut doesnt even mention KEYBOARD controls its says press A to continue and press y to run or b to shoot..like lost planet i spent 30 mins pressing every key to find out what B or X is in my keyboard..i mean they spent 1 year on this..and they couldnt write wasd instead of X YB

please be logical im just being true :(

heres the video..and its the extra content so it is PC

GEARS VIDEO

In PC GEOW...as soon as you plug in a controler, the interface changes automaticlly (I think bioshock does this too)

they showed a video recently of it being played with PC controls...and it did everything normally.

This video is old.

what he is saying is that Gears recognized the controller, so when its plugged in its ABXY, etc, but when its unplugged it will revert back to keyboard and mouse (WASD, spacebar, etc). The video you saw had the controller plugged in.

ty man now im releved ..phew...3-4 more days cant wait :D

If you haven't noiticed,the first released video of "Gears of War" was running on a "Pc" not a "Xbox 360".So expect a nice and decent port.Rylsadar

actually the first time it was seen, Gears of War was running on a PowerMac G5, which I thought was pretty ironic, but the reason for that was because the 360 runs off of a processor that is derived from the PowerPC architecture.

i know about the mod..but it has terrible sensitivity..its good i had 360 controller but still i uninstalled it :P

I wouldn't know because I didn't really use it I just heard of it from a friend. Anyway, back on topic, I really think GoW will be a good port IF online and DX10 is actually free. I'm also psyched for the Unreal Editor that I think is supposed to come with the game. It's supposed to be like a map editor but it's actually what Epic used to make their maps. It's complete with your custom textures, sounds, everything. You can even choose how far a sound from something like a fire crackling travels. Check out the vid at gametrailers.com

Maybe he was playing with a controller?

You can play with either. What's the problem with that?zakaweb

Its going to be released November 6th.(For north America)

I see. I would be surprised if they weren't playing with a controller. Hopefully it switches depending on which scheme is chosen. Anyway, it will be a good game. I played it on the 360 and the PC Version has the potential to be even better.

I kind of like this trend in PC games, auto detecting the Xbox360 controller setup-free. It's nice to have that option, I was surprised NFS ProStreet didn't have this option, but Juiced did, I think Jericho did, Crysis has it, and yeah Bioshock has it I believe. The option of using a controller is nice, especially when you don't have to set it up.Marfoo

all games for windows games are required to have it.

In order to have you're title under the Games for Windows and Games for Windows Live the game must follow a few rules. Much like any console game must have standards to become licensed. Games for Windows games all have plug n play support for the Xbox 360 controller and it will auto-detect and map. If you notice the CRYSIS demo if you plug in the controller it will say something like Controller Conncected, and from there on it will give you messages like Press A, etc.

GFW is different than windows live...most GFW games dont use live (in fact only 3 do)

in addition to the controler support, there are other things they all need to have....like widescreen support.

yeah although its designed is based on controller, it still is optimized nicely for kb + m like using double tapping for movement etc
