Gears of War coming to PC?

by Sam

In a recent interview with TeamXbox, Mark Rein of Epic games has once again hinted that Gears of War could be coming to the PC. “I don’t think that’s any great secret that we would like to do it on PC, but for now it’s a 360 game, eventually we’ll get around to a PC version. I just don’t know when.”

He went on to talk about the challenges of porting Gears of War to PC. “The big challenge is to make a game that was designed solely for the console… to take advantage of every last little corner of that console, to fill every little crack and run as many threads as we could and do as much to exploit the power of that machine, and make it run well on enough PCs to be worth releasing. That’s a challenge.”

From what I’ve heard about Gears of War on the Xbox, it sounds like a fantastic game so I’m really looking forward to hearing more about them porting it to PC.
