Default [Shacknews] Blezinski: I'll Always love the PC

Quote:
Look, we put a lot of work into Gears PC. There was basically a whole new act in there. And we thought that that section was a very well done section of game, filled in some plot points that might have been missing from the first game to be perfectly honest. But we just believe that collectively we can laser-focus this franchise, keep it on console, and it will be stronger as a result. I mean it's just plain and simple. It's not that I don't like the PC, but we want to make an Xbox 360 game that kicks ass, plain and simple.
Oh snap

Or maybe I'm reading to much into it...

GoW PC is one of the most bugfree and smoothest PC games recently...

your joking right? im probably just not picking up on your sarcasm but ill bite. that game has been riddled with bugs since day one. there was the 10 second crash bug that plagued the game for months and still does. there was bug that deleted your saved games for no reason after getting off the game. There were lock ups slow downs. games for windows live infinite update glitch. Games for windows live!1111!!!! just that ruins the online multiplayer. then you get into the game and you have glitches galore im not even trying and I end up on top of the map or below it. host lag which was a problem on the console version somehow carried over. All the glitches from the console version weapon sliding, chainsaw glitches, ways to get outside the map and more still work on the pc version they didn't try to fix anything. worst did they patch the game? other than the games for windows live patch no they stopped once it was semi functional. I know Epic games didnt do the port People Can Fly did it but for epic games to accept this broken game then say Forget pc were going focus on the xbox because were all about making the best gaming experience possible HAHAHAHAHAHAh.

Where's the link to the article?

Anyways, it was a sub par port of a console game. Not exactly the way to sell games on the PC.
