Expecting and often getting are quite different. I don't know why people are making a big deal about it. No where did they say this (or anything else in that snippet) was the reason for the delay.

Seems they added it in to alleviate questions and concerns.. and you damn well know that people are always like 'omg i bet its got console controls blah blah'.. so don't even try to deny it. Wink

It's not like you expect a platform-specific UI in a PC game to begin with, right? Rolling Eyes Indeed, we should bow and worship Gearbox for that priceless sacrifice for PC gamers.


I just think it's funny that when a PC version of a multiplat game doesn't have PC-specific UI, there is hooting and hollering and raving about how horrible it is, and at the same time, when the developer boasts that they are making sure to have platform-specific UI, PC gamers get all smug about "well of course, lazy ass piece of shit developers!."

Bitching either way. PC gamers love to bitch, it's just a sad, pathetic part of the fandom.

A PC game should be free of all console signs, and the developers should consider it a given fact, and not have to incluse it in the "features". Very Happy

But hell I can wait 6 days if I can get an UI tailored for PC and its high resolutions instead of some terrible consolized crap that's tailored for gamepads and takes up the entire screen (yes Oblivion, looking at you).

That's your evidence? Some random dude posting on a gearbox forum? I also saw several other posts on the gearbox forums pasting quotes from elsewhere saying that it was a GFWL title. I haven't seen official word either way though. Doesn't matter for me though. I lost the emails with the two club keys I had long ago. Only ever registered gears of war and uninstalled it the next day.

(although I tend to agree with you that it's not GFWL since there's no logo at the bottom of the webpage)

Shack: With Xbox Live and PlayStation Network, I can get an idea as to how the multiplayer setup will work on consoles. But what about PC? Is Gearbox doing its own thing there? Games for Windows Live?

Mikey Neumann: We are doing our own thing. It's gonna be lobby-based, we're trying to keep it as close to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 [offerings] as possible. We want to make sure that everyone can play our game and have fun, it's gonna be a slightly simpler lobby, we still have all the options you have on the other ones. Maybe more, PC people like their options. We're gonna try to keep it as close as possible.

This is absolutely the best combo: visit something* in Barca, crazy sex and then borderlands to relax, and continue the cycle.

*= something interesting for your wife.

New character "vignettes" - showcasing each character's gameplay:

Lilith

Mordecai

Roland

Brick


Brick's fisting (Cool Face) looks terrible, lacks the proper oomph. Sad

Guess I'll go with one of the other characters after all.
