Depends on the PC port. So far MS has blown Quantum Break and Horizon 3 on PC.  Right now sadly I don't have faith in MS really giving a shit about their PC versions.  Which sucks because I wanna play Scalebound :(

Ok, this is a good enough place.  Can someone tell me what ReCore is and why so many people care about it?  I'd never heard of it until recently and I looked up the developers are nobody special (mainly just co-developed some average games, best probably being Soul Sacrifice Delta) and the reviews are not good, why is ReCore a "gaming event" that gets multiple threads and people care about compared to the other 100s of B-gaming releases every year that no one ever mentions or cares about?

I was just kidding lol

People are into it because some of the dudes worked on Metroid Prime and Inafune supervised or something. Also there aren't so many B games released these days and apparently it's a ton of fun until it hits a brick wall of fetch questing and grinding.

Will get this if the PC version is good.  Also hoping to maybe get a new PC within the next month or so but may just wait until next year.

The PC version comes with all 1070 and 1080 video cards and I plan on upgrading to the 1070 soon, so I guess I'm PC only this time around. Me and my friends never seem to get the same games anymore anyway, so I'm really not missing out on anything by not getting this on the Xbox One.

The PC port looks to be awesome (unlike Forza :fbm).

It's really well-optimized on PC.

The game unlocked at midnight, so I only had a chance to check out the settings, run a benchmark test, and try out team deathmatch for one match. The game defaulted to 2560x1080 with everything on Ultra, except for an ambient occlusion setting (was on high) IIRC, and ran at a rock-solid 60 FPS on my PC with a GTX 1070. The benchmark showed some impressive stuff going on in the background of one level, but apart from that...it's Gears. TDM was like playing the game on a 360 again, lol.

Was pleasantly-surprised to see that this game supports ultra-widescreen, too.

Because its an XB1 "exclusive" that Infaune the scam artist put his name on.
NO

Missed Bebpo's post here.  Post about ReCore in a Gears thread, brahs.

Isn't ReCore made by former Metroid Prime devs (Armature) and Inafune?  That's why it got attention.  I have yet to try it but a demo is now available.

Played some of the PC version this morning. It's a really great PC version. Tons of settings that are explained in detail and also show what sort of affect on performance they have.

And it runs flawlessly on my system. Everything maxed out, 1080p, running at well over 100fps. I may bump the res to 4k and see how it fairs.

Glad PC version runs great, but then Epic's always been a company that still gives a shit about the PC thankfully.  Still haven't played Gears 3 yet, so will grab it eventually.

Bumping the res to 1440p still nets me anywhere from 60-100fps. So far I don't think it's dropped below 60.

Enjoying the game so far. I just met Marcus and we did some stuff.

Finished the campaign. Pretty fun overall. Ending had a good tie to the previous trilogy.

My SO wanted to play so we local co-op's the last 3rd of the game. I didn't see any option to change this but I'm annoyed that they do split screen by maintaining the same aspect ratio but scaling everything down so it all fits on the screen.

After we finished 4, she wanted to play the original so we starts GOW1, which I've never played local coop. That game reduces the vertical FOV which isn't really a big deal honestly. Would have liked if 4 did that.

Also - playing GOW1 on 360 in local coop is roooough due to the framerate. It drops into the teens way too often.

Attention to this seems kind of ho-hum now.  Is it selling well?

I feel really bad for the Coalition. Literally no one gives a shit about this game and the sales drop off is impressive.

How is the campaign compared to the other games? Better than 3 at least?
