| KungKras said: I am unsure about Gears. I know that Halo is currently THE series that represents the Xboxes. It is very hard for console companies to get game series that feels unthinkable on other systems, MS was lucky they bought Bungie before they released Halo on Mac, or Halo would never have rocketed the Xbox. Does Gears of War feel unthinkable on other systems the way Sonic felt unthinkable on non-Sega systems before Dreamcast died? I know there is a PC version of Gears 1. What I'm saying is that MS needs games that will instantly feel like Xbox games, and it's better if MS creates their own studios to make these games rather than to buy third party studios that make games that feel like you can have the same experience elsewhere. |
But what you forget is that Halo, and Halo 2 are on the PC, and that Halo eventually did make it's wat to the Mac. Gears feels just as unthinkable on other platforms. Maybe not as much as Halo, but nothing does!
