As much as I want this to be true, it looks like Mark Rein was misquoted :(:

Mark Rein was misquoted. We have not announced dedicated servers.

Maybe they'll officially announce it later on?

That's a shame. More devs should step up to the plate and include dedicated servers - it really extends the longevity of the online portion (and as such, the consumer's willingness to pay for DLC - something you'd think devs would have realized by now).

Dedicated Servers are not so important, if the netcode is improved...

Heck, look at the Halo;Reach beta!

That was pretty smooth (for a Beta), and was comparable with dedicated servers, and verystreamlined.

If Epic can do a job like Bungie (And have a BETA!!!), then dedicated servers may not matter as much.

Reach still has small host advantage type stuff that isn't noticeable right away. Alot of it will show up though in small instances specifically with double melees and more important Team Swat.

I meant in the sense that, you get a lot of console fanboys writing all this negative stuff about PC gaming yet the consoles are kinda following the PC mould. Back to your question, yes i was hibernating. :)

Except the consoles are taking the good things, and leaving all the annoying PC stuff behind. ;) a launch 360 can still play a 360 game that comes out in 4 years, with dedicated servers or not, can't say that about a pc :P

Uhhhh, yes u can. You just need to know a little about your machine. My cousins PC is over 4 years old yet it can produce better visuals than either console. He is not even thinking of upgrading yet.

Best thing I've heard about Gears of War 3 so far. I love love love the multiplayer in the previous Gears games, but I get the most horrible lag ever sometimes.

Sure, how much did that PC cost huh? and you think it'll last another 4-5 years? I doubt it, or your cousin spend a couple grand on it.

:), Finally epic is going somewhere, I play gears the most out of any of my games and I can say the Lag, Host, and Glitching really screw it up from the great game it could have been.

Wow who cares, Gears has always sucked online, Gears 2 was probably the biggest failure of a successfull games online ever. Gears 3 even without lag will have lame unbalanced uninspired online.TehNubTuber

That's great news, but quick question am I the only one looking forward to SP more so than online play? I totally sucked at GeoW2 online, so that's why :P
