No, they didn't.

True, but they never explicitly said there wouldn't be one.  He is unequivocally saying that they have decided not to do a PC version of Gears 2.

I might get a 360 just for this game, but I don't believe him for a second...

By the way, you cannot give yourself a nickname and you cannot take it away either Cliffy B.

If we're talking about clarity, Epic also didn't make Gears of War 1 for PC - it was outsourced, which doesn't go against what Cliff Bleszinski said: "Gears of War is a great franchise first and foremost for Xbox 360, and therefore we're focusing on that platform for Gears of War 2. We've decided we're not going to do a PC version this time around." - so they could outsource it again.

If Epic were to base their decision of porting GeoW2 to PC on the sales of the first game did on PC, then I'm sure they wouldn't port it since it didn't sell much. But ofcourse, that was a time when GFWL asked you to pay monthly fee for full experience. Now that GFWL is completely free, Microsoft could very well use GoW2 for promotion of the reborned free GFW... and no doubt it would sell more than the first.

But whatever.

Didn't they say that last time...

Oh, yeah... they did.

The hell.

Gears 2 on PC by the end of 2009.

 Some people need to take reading comprehension.  Look at the second paragraph of your link and you'll see where they didn't rule out making a PC version.  Compare that to what Cliff said this time in which he says they've decided they're not making a PC version this time around.  How much more clear do the words need to be?

OK. Gears 2 will still be amazing. Carmine is one of my favorite characters to play as. The other is Cole. He talks SO MUCH TRASH!

*Meatloaf, baby*

It is sad that MS pays to keep games off of of Windows, a platform that they own.

Don't kid yourself Legend.

We all know that a PC port is coming.
