EDIT: missed the bit about the BD player.. that seems like your best bet.

I have no idea how much Xboxs are though, if GOW is a FPS game then I would get it for PC.

I would get it for PC as well, except Microsoft will NEVER release it on anything other than the Xbox It's THE game that made the xbox the success that it is. RatBastards

yeah, the BD would have been the least expensive, but..... ummm.... ahhh....
just ordered the GOW Limited Edition package from Amazon. It will be delivered on the 20th which is the games release date. Sick looking box and special controllers... how could I not

After all, it's not quite as expensive as a GTX 580

Thanks though Rich, I just couldn't wait :

Hmmmm I thought they did release the original GoW on PC and many anticipate the 3rd one will be out next year on PC.

None of this prolly helps you in the meantime though, lol.

???? Are you talking about the ring of death thingy? If so why don't you fix that yourself. Pretty sure it is just a over heating issue due to shitty CPU heatsink mount that is easily fixed.


On a different note I'm anxious to see if the XBOX games will work on Windows 8.

hmm... you appear to be correct Dr.Nip on Gears of War1. However, a google search fails to turn up any trace of GOW2 for PC, so maybe that's the one you heard may be released next year?

I'm just hoping I can get connected to IGN through some miracle lol

Red Ring of Death I think is more a power issue more than just a heat issue. Second time I had to send my power supply in as well ??

Have you tried the windows 8 preview?


IDLed it but need more HDDs before I go around install new stuff

I suspect it will be more like a cell phone than a traditional PC OS.

I couldn't describe it any better. Picture Win7 on a smartphone. Right now I'm working with it for mass imaging production, and so far it's just as lovely in that respect as Win 7 is.

Having a touch screen is obviously the way to go with it but it's nice with traditional input methods.
