Forty miles below sea level, deep in the heart of the Joystiq bunker, the
tiniest of blips lit up our Internets. Footage of Epic's
Gears of War for PC had hit the web in an instant and vanished as quickly as it had appeared. Though we've
known of a few
clues regarding this release, nothing had been confirmed. But now that we have seen
Gears running at higher resolutions, silkier framerates and with brand new content (see: Brumak above), we can no longer deny its existence.
Our only fear relates to requirements. With
Roboblitz Rainbow Six Vegas being the only
Unreal Engine 3 testing bed on the PC, the glorious beauty of
Gears is bound to melt a few systems. The video itself was tagged under "
E32007," so we're bound to hear more solid information on this release very soon.
Hey Cliffy, Brumak will be available as downloadable content for 360 owners, right? Buddy?
[Update - Yes,
Rainbow Six Vegas is just a
touch more demanding than
Roboblitz. Thanks, Blackmanfu!]
