Angry No Gears of War 2 PC

Not particularly miffed but it is aggravating. All the more so considering the reason why. What happened to Epic being a bastion of PC support? :<

In a discussion with TVG recently, Gears of War 2 designer Cliff Bleszinski said that the reason there was not going to be a PC version of the game was simple; high-end users.

"The PC right now is a fair amount different to what it was back in the day, with all the badly integrated video chips," said Cliff.

"Here's the problem right now; the person who is savvy enough to want to have a good PC to upgrade their video card, is a person who is savvy enough to know bit torrent to know all the elements so they can pirate software. Therefore, high-end videogames are suffering very much on the PC."

Cliff then went on to confirm that unlike Gears of War 1, which did see an eventual port to the PC, the second game will not be making the same move. Asked if Gears of War 2 PC would be possible once the dust had settled and sales had declined on the Xbox 360 version, Cliff still said no; definitely not.
