Title: Gears of War PC
Post by: RichardWhitely on January 21, 2008, 12:58:59 AM
Is one hell of a nice looking game, the pc version looks better than the xbox 360 version too. Also noticed when I fired it up earlier it has an option for co-op over internet and lan \o/  :banana2:

Tried this the other day... if it was a proper FPS I'd like it, but I'm really not a fan of the 'over the shoulder' viewpoint. And the fact that there's no jump button, to get over an obstacle you have to run at it while holding an action key... it's useless if you're right next to the obstacle.

Uh? if you are standing right next to an obstacle - you can bash the space bar and your character instantly takes cover (this is a good time to reload), then you press it again and he leaps over said obstacle. Easy!

Took me a bit to realise you had to press the right mouse button to go into first person viewpoint to aim and shoot. Apart from that I am having a great time running around shooting the massed horde of the locusts (its even more fun in co-op mode ;) )
