2 out of 5 stars Not Very Good   September 22, 2008

Gears of war for xbox 360 was overall a good game. The campaign was great and lots of fun and the co-op was even better. My only complaints were the online gameplay was full of problems which made it virturally un-playable. (basically unless you were the host of the game you didnt stand a chance). This PC version is genuinely awefull. For starters I wanted to load my current LIVE account into the game but it simply does not work. First the game prompts you to enter your CD key. This process crashed the game twice before it went through. Then the game prompts you to download an update. This update crashes the game almost every time and it took me about 6 attempts to get it to work. Then the game needs to download your LIVE profile. This process fails attempt after attempt and if you are lucky and have lots of time on your hands you can get it to work. These problems are not isolated to just the one computer. I have tried it on several different systems both running Vista and XP and they all have similar crashing/problems loading user accounts. Once you get over the user account problems the game itself is good and mostly problems free but that is only IF you manage to get there. I would only recommend this to people desperate to play this game and have absolutely no access to an xbox 360. You should play co-op on a friends system and just stay away from this PC version. If you own an xbox 360, don't even think about this game.
