NV drivers Show PC Gears of War!!

There have been other signs that point to Gears of War eventually being released on the PC, and we're here with another Indiana Jones-like piece to the puzzle. Some Nvidia ForceWare drivers have been turning up with references to Gears of War in them. Now, before the rumor-mill gets into full swing, we'd like to caveat this news by saying the drivers were downloaded from The Guru of 3D, a site where you can download tweaked and modded drivers. They're also in beta-form, so we're not sure if this sign leads to the Ark of the Covenant or not. It's entirely possible these beta drivers include code for an as-yet-unreleased game or, and perhaps more likely, a precocious gamer decided to have a little fun with everyone's expectations. Both Microsoft and Epic have stated that there are no plans to bring Gears of War to the PC in the near future, but perhaps they just meant during the next five minutes, who knows.

Games for Windows will be hitting full swing with the release of Vista, but is this Gears of War rumor the real deal? It took Halo: Combat Evolved two years to make it from the consoles to the desktops, so, following that timeframe, we're already overdue for Halo 2 on PC, which is due with the similarly delayed launch of Vista. So, with a two year gap between console and PC versions, does it make sense to see Epic's shiny crown jewel appear under the Games for Windows brand? If you really want to kickstart this new initiative with a double-dose of Halo 2 and GoW, then it sure does. Two best-selling Xbox games would be a nice reason for folks to upgrade to Vista.

Ora ai estava uma boa razão para me convencer a passar do XP para o Vista. E para a Microsoft era uma situação win/win. O que perderiam em vendas de X360, ganhavam na implementação do Vista. Ou seja não era bem win/win era mais loose / win pois há muitos mais PCs que consolas.
 
Um exclusivo de 1/2 anos na X360 chega para quem for comprar a consola pelo jogo se decida... e claro para PC os requisitos devem ser proibitivos para muita gente :P

A saída do Halo e agora Halo 2 para PC em nada prejudica as vendas da XBOX.

Nada como meter o DVD e jogar a 720p numa consola sem preocupações de specs/tweaks/drivers :205:
 
a ms fez uma lista de jogos para o win vista, esse nao esta la, por agora

CES 2007: Gaming on Windows Vista

Gametactics reports that Microsoft featured in the CES games that allowed for interaction across Windows Vista and the Xbox 360.

The first wave of Live titles that had such cross-platform capabilities included Microsoft Game Studios' Shadowrun and Mattel's UNO. The Live gaming and entertainment network will enable gamers to interact only across both of Microsoft's gaming platforms. Other titles for Windows Vista to have Live support include Halo 2.

They also marketed Windows Vista as an opportune platform for casual gamers. They cite Luxor 2 for Windows Vista, Crystal Quest for Windows Vista, and the ever popular Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved as example of their push to further cement Windows Vista as a good platform for casual gaming. Microsoft also used CES as an opportunity to further promote their Games for Windows brand. The Game for Windows portfolio includes the following game titles:

* Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures (Eidos Interactive/Funcom)
* Age of Empires III: The Warchiefs (Microsoft Game Studios/Ensemble Studios)
* Alan Wake (Microsoft Game Studios/Remedy)
* Bioshock (2K Games/Irrational Games)
* Company of Heroes (THQ Inc./Relic Entertainment)
* Crysis (EA Partners/Crytek)
* Enemy Territory: Quake Wars (Activision/Splash Damage)
* Flight Simulator X (Microsoft Game Studios/ACES Studio)
* Frontlines: Fuels of War (THQ/Kaos Studios)
* Halo 2 (Microsoft Game Studios/Bungie Studios)
* Hellgate: London (EA Partners/NAMCO BANDAI Games/Flagship Studios)
* LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy (LucasArts/TT Games)
* Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar (Midway/Turbine Inc.)
* Marvel Universe Online (Microsoft Game Studios/Cryptic Studios)
* Rail Simulator (EA Partners/Kuju Entertainment)
* Shadowrun (Microsoft Game Studios/FASA Studio)
* Supreme Commander (THQ/Gas Powered Games)
* Tabula Rasa (NCSoft Corp./ Destination Games)
* World in Conflict (Sierra Entertainment/Massive Entertainment)
* Zoo Tycoon 2: Extinct Animals (Microsoft Game Studios/Blue Fang Games)
* Zoo Tycoon 2: Marine Mania (Microsoft Game Studios/Blue Fang Games)
* Zoo Tycoon 2: Zookeeper Collection (Microsoft Game Studios/Blue Fang Games)

It is also reported that most Windows Vista optimised titles support gameplay with both the keyboard and the Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows.

Ainda não entendi a relação entre jogos e windows vista? Esses mesmos jogos não funcionam no xp? E não funcionam melhor no xp que no vista por o xp estar muito menos bloated?
 
lololol tá bem então... até ao directx 9 sempre suportaram sistemas operativos desde o windows 98, agora resolvem obrigar a fazer o upgrade se quiser jogar?

tempo de abandonar definitivamente o pc como plataforma pra jogos

GI: Any thoughts on bringing Gears over to PC, or are you going to keep it an exclusive on 360?

Rein: We’ve always said that at some point, Gears would come to PC, or could come to PC. We demoed it. The first year at E3 we demoed it, it was on a PC. It’s not a question of if it can run, it’s a question of when’s the right time, and when do we have the right people to do it and is it the right platform for it? So there’s no final decision on that yet. Right now, it’s an Xbox 360 exclusive. If you want to play Gears, go buy a 360.

Parece prometer este jogo. E parece ser um jogo "potente" em termos de violência, logo aconselhado só a maiores de 17! :D

Data de lançamento: 06/11/2007 (mas há várias discordâncias em relação ao dia)

já joguei na X360 e não fiquei tãaaaaao impressionado como isso. Mas vamos a ver como resulta em PC.
Em todo o caso amanhã já tenho isso instalado para tirar as teimas. Mas duvido que seja este que me tira do vício do Timeshift.
