wgas about epic anyway? GoW was meh, UTIII was meh and anyone with a name like "cliffy b." should be dragged...I'll leave that one alone.

seriously the only reason epic even gets press is because m$ backs them. all of their games have been second rate compared to their counterparts. unreal was pretty cool like 10 years ago but they haven't done anything original, and certainly nothing great, since. its all marketing hype baby.

Actually, just remembered half the reason I still haven't really finished the game is cause the save game system won't work for me, only sometimes.

I agree fully. The glitchy save game issue and unstable frame rates bugged the PC version all throughout. I fact I remember posting a topic here on that issue. Some great soul over here advised me that it was my fault that I bought the PC version without checking out the issues. What a load of c*** was that? I can't stop getting into splits.

I have no problems on my side. That said, it does annoy me when they say I have to update my graphics driver because it feels it is inadequate.

i am very sure that if MS is not releasing on PC, someone else will :D

Negative, MS owns Gears. If they don't release it on the pc, nobody will.

This could just be history repeating itself, trying not too take too much attention away from the 360 release. or it could be a tease for more people to buy it on the 360 instead. Or the sales could have been so bad, negative feedback etc they jsut don't want to release it for pc at all.

Time will tell :p

i didnt think M$ "owned" gears, i thought they kind of had this mutual understanding that gears would only hit the 360 and/or pc.

as for them trying not to take attention away from the 360 by not mentioning a pc version, this could be true, BUT remember that in the past when gears one was coming out they said they are "not working on a pc version, but that the possibility was there" or something along those lines. this time it feels more like a flat out "NO" to me.

Microsoft Games Studio is the publisher, Epic Games owns Gears of War.

    • Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb by Karthik Mudaliar Image via Apple Apple is reportedly trying to get a clearance from the Trump administration to buy memory from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) to get some relief from soaring DRAM prices. As per a report by the Financial Times, Apple approached the Commerce Department more than a month ago and also spoke to other officials and allies in Washington. For starters, CXMT is a company that's already been placed on the Pentagon's list of Chinese military companies. The Chinese company is the country's top DRAM maker. For Apple, the timing is certainly awkward but not surprising. Tim Cook had recently warned that Apple would have to raise prices because AI companies are buying up large amounts of memory for data centers, and just like that, Apple raised MacBook and iPad prices. Micron also recently revealed that customers have committed billions of dollars to secure memory supply years in advance, which shows us how aggressive securing infrastructure has become. This gives suppliers such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron more leverage, while pushing hardware makers to look for alternatives. CXMT is one of those alternatives, but not the simplest one. Apple has spent many years trying to diversify parts of its supply chain away from China, especially for final assembly, while still depending heavily on Chinese manufacturing and suppliers. Even domestic brands from China are moving towards CXMT and YMTC instead of relying on Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix. For Apple, though, it would invite more scrutiny than local Chinese companies. For now, this is more like a lobbying effort rather than a confirmed supply deal. There's no official statement from either of the parties. What is clearer, though, is the pressure behind such a request. AI demand has certainly made hardware a bottleneck, and companies are trying everything they can to bring things back to normal, even if that means making politically sensitive choices.

      I did test it a month or so back, but ... the results I expect to be on the first page are not there.
    • 4TB TEAMGROUP MP44Q, 2TB T-Force G50, and 2TB WD My Passport SSDs drop to great prices

      Neowin is saying these are good prices? Thats crazy. As others have said they are just ######. Time for big tech to bring down the prices for real not this fake crap.
    • Hands on with iFlyTek AINote 2 E-Ink tablet: insanely thin and smart

      By The Werewolf · Posted

      The iFlyTek AINote 2 is among the thinnest E-Ink tablets. It has an EMR stylus, a built-in fingerprint reader, and plenty of built-in AI features. You had me until "and plenty of built-in AI features." That and any company that still does the iProduct naming trope is an immediate pass. It suggests the company isn't very imaginative or creative and is trying to piggyback off another company's success. Extremely lame. Also kind of expensive. Better choices at lower prices out there.

      These are not "great" prices... just "less awful". Apparently "Those who forget the past are doomed to pay higher prices and think they've won."
