GEARS OF WAR Rip For PC
 |
October 4, 2007 - When we first saw Gears of War a little over two years ago, the game was running on the PC, so it's no surprise that Epic is finally bringing their console hit to the PC market. The Xbox 360 phenomenon will finally be released for the PC on November 6. We just got back from a visit to Epic's North Carolina studios where we had a chance to talk with lead designer Cliff Bleszinski and producer Rod Fergusson. Better still, we actually had the chance to play through the new content and check out the new controls and visuals.
Far from being a straight port of the Xbox 360 game, the PC version of Gears of War will feature loads of new exclusive content including five new single player chapters, three new multiplayer levels, a new game type, and the full-featured Unreal Editor. New tweaks for the PC controls and all the recent updates to Unreal Engine 3 will also be making their way into the new version of the game. When you consider that the PC version also includes all the downloadable content released so far for the 360, it's easy to see why we're so excited for this one to come out.
Epic doesn't want to make Gears of War another run-and-gun PC shooter, so they've tweaked the controls a bit from the console version. Gamers who have already played the game on the 360 know that shooting from the hip profits little, so you'll want to rely on aimed shots to have any hope of hitting anything more than a few feet away. But to compensate for the greater finesse the mouse offers, the developers have increased the recoil of the weapons in the game. Moreover, the aiming reticle for the sniper rifle will twitch a lot if the sniper is under fire.
Gears for the PC still uses a single button for running, getting behind cover, mantling and rolling. While this control scheme caused a few of us problems on the 360, the PC version allows players to issue a separate "run" command by double-tapping the W button. For some reason, this made things a bit easier for us as we raced past cover points to get where we wanted to go.
It's not surprising that you can do away with the keyboard altogether and use a 360 gamepad to play the PC version of the game. What is surprising is that the game automatically detects your input device as you use it and adjusts the game balance accordingly. To go one better, the game can even switch between modes in real timewhile you're playing and even updates the small help icons that appear during the game to fit the controller you're using. It might seem like a strange feature to get excited about, but it clearly shows the effort that Epic is putting forth to make the PC version every bit as impressive as the console version.
The new single player content includes five new chapters that fill out some of the story towards the end of the game. Originally, this content was supposed to be included in the console release but it was cut because the developers couldn't get it completed and polished in time for release. We don't want to spoil any of the details of the story, but it involves a drawbridge, a train bomb and a stunning new boss battle with the Brumak, one of the largest, baddest monsters we've seen in a long time.
