If you’ve been paying attention to this blog for some time now, then you may have noticed that FPS Rantings is currently having a fixation on Gears of War for the PC. It’s only fair to feature the GameTrailers review on Gears, but don’t say I didn’t warn you.

If you like to inflict more self-torture, try tweaking your new Gears of War for the PC. Normally, tweaking the game to get the best performance is a necessary exercise, especially when your net worth isn’t good enough to be announced in a magazine.
Well, Gears gives new meaning to torture.

After downloading the update here, […]

If you’re cheap like me, then you’re still probably hanging on to your year-old rig even if Crysis or Gears have come out. I’m still hanging on to my Athlon 64, but was smart enough to put in a gig of RAM to run current shooters.
However, I never expected Gears’ installation to take this […]

Yes, I lurk at my retailer’s site on a constant basis. I even call them everyday to check. But despite my efforts, there’s still no news of Gears’ PC version. My only assurance that it’s coming this month is the Upcoming Games section at the lower right part of the screen. It says November 2007, […]

Yes, the day I’ve been waiting for is finally here. Gears of War for the PC has finally shipped. Gone are the days of detesting the Xbox players for having an exclusive shooter that’s arguably the best 360 title to date (yes, it’s not Halo 3 or Bioshock).
I’m still lurking around my local retailer […]

If you’re mad about Gears of War like I am, then you’d love me for posting a new video clip showing some satisfying action. According to GameTrailers’ description, the montage shows the new content that’s exclusive to Gears’ PC version. Enjoy the carnage and cussing.
I just can’t help but notice that while it’s […]

Here’s a short interview about Gears of War for the PC with Cliffy B. Yes, the game brings tears to my eyes when it came out last year. Today, I cry a river because Epic has finally given us PC gamers real love.
The best part? You won’t need a PC built for Crysis to play […]

The Annex game mode was a recent update to Gears, and it added new depth to […]
