Gear of War awareness [POLL]

The learning curve is pretty steep to be honest and I can understand people having difficulty mastering it although even at lower skill levels it is really fun if you don't mind dying a lot.
It is the original game remastered for current hardware providing 4K resolutions and cross platform gaming between Windows 10 users and Xbox One users.
The pricing is quite inviting at $39.99, £29.99 and €39.99.

Ahahahaha

We have met before for sure : )

Its keyboard & mouse, so you got no excuse. I would love to see the new Halo come to PC, it looks sick.

actually I don't know how to answer your question and I suppose "because it is" wont suffice.

I don't know if I would say it's amazing but it's a high quality 3rd person shooter with some really nice gore and tight controls. Horde mode was really fun co-op with friends but I don't think they are adding it in this Ultimate Edition. The original part 1 did not have it. They really should have added it though.

Lmao, you can stick Playstation in you're ass two times, yes two Playstations the same time : )

God of War does look amazing tho, never got to play it : (

I'd rather have God of War than Chest High Walls the Game.

They on holiday making Banatato babies : )

Same here dude, I love cover based combat.
I am not sure about hardware requirements but hopefully it will be well optimised across the entire spectrum.
I would imagine if you wanted to play in 4K then you would obviously need upwards of 6gb available vram to play on a single single screen at hopefully 60fps,
I know the developers are experimenting with global illumination so if you wanted to experience this then you would need a DX12 based GPU.
I believe a PC release date will be announced around the release date of the console version which is August the 25th or was that the 15th I forget. The PC version is expected this fall but there isn't anything official right now.

It's a remastered version, I never played the original on PC.
I have no idea if they would recreate the other two games for PC or even Gears of War Judgement but I would definitely be interested in playing them if they did.
I think because Microsoft bought out the franchise from Epic Games and Microsoft's push to cross platform Windows 10 users with Xbox One users there is a likelihood that Gears of War 4 will come to PC sometime next year.

"I can just never take anyone seriously that plays a shooter with aim assist".
As for aim assist I believe this to be experimental with each update released for each of the games, there is definitely assists to chainsawing and melee strikes, as for power weapons there was never any aim assist at all ever.
I believe there were aim assist for the gnasher shotgun at close range in some of the later games but to be honest aim assist in Gears of War is rarely moaned about.
But to be fair there have been so many changes to the mechanics of Gears of War since it first release it is hard to pinpoint a definitive opinion to aim assist overall.
I'm just glad to see they have gone back to their roots and refined the original mechanics that are undoubtedly the most balanced and preferred among fans.

Could come under WTF is Gears of War, maybe.

I agree : )

Damn, never knew about the board game, looks interesting.

It was the first game I played on Xbox 360 back in 2006, quite a while ago. Gears 2 was meh and Gears 3 was a big improvement on the Gears 2 but my all time favourite is the original so I am pretty hyped at how it has been improved for next gen.

I hope it it works on your OS but I think Windows 10 is for cross platform. I doubt they would limit it to just Windows 10.

$10 sale, that would be awesome for everyone : )

True host advantage was a serious problem

Probably not, it be cool if they did.
Most likely Gears 4 will come to PC

I'm not entirely sure but if I were them it would seem like the most logical way to distribute it.
I'm hoping I can use Win 7 or 8.1 I'm not too sure about Win 10 at the moment, a friend has been using the beta with version no problems playing games. I know you need Win 10 to play cross platform which would be pretty shitty if this is the only OS we can use.

Fuck that, I don't want no GFWL crap, I never had a problem with GFWL myself but it has stopped me playing alongside my friends because of the problems they had with it.

Fair comment, it's just remastered with visual improvements and animations and a renewed multiplayer system with dedicated servers.
It is almost 10 years old and will most likely set the precedence for Gears of War 4 in 2016.

I don't know, on purpose : )

Fair comment

Ahahahaha those were the days : )
