Back in 2005, there was some crosstalk that suggested that Gears of War could also launch on PC in addition to Xbox 360. In an interview with Eurogamer, J Allard suggested that Gears was coming to both platforms.
Mark Rein, Vice President of Epic Games, explained at that moment that Gears of War was being developed as an Xbox 360 exclusive but he left the door open to the possibility of porting the game to Windows.
"Could we, in the future, adapt Gears for Windows just as Microsoft did with Halo?" Rein asked in rhetorical tone. "Sure we could and, as you can see from J Allard's comments, Microsoft is clearly cool with that idea. But we're a long way off from thinking about that."
Well, it seems that as development on Gears of War is completed, Epic Games is not that far away from making a Windows version of the game.
Today, ConsoleWars.de reports that a Swiss release scheduled list from Microsoft shows Gears of War as a Windows Vista game coming in the fourth quarter of 2007, following the steps of Halo 2, which is being released exclusively for Windows Vista this winter.
If this is true, we don’t expect Microsoft to confirm such release until long after the Xbox 360 version has shipped and gamers have gotten tired of chainsawing other players… although we are not sure if players will ever get tired of that. _________________
