Be undead

The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

Got this pre-ordered. Looking forward to the extra campaign chapters, the graphics, and the points.
I'm jealous; I don't have a rig like yours. :(

I also expect Games for Windows - Live to deter from the experience I should be having.
At the same time, I think Gears of Wars is going to improve the image of Games for Windows - Live. At least Gears of War isn't a three-year-old game on an older generation console (cough, Halo 2 Vista, cough), and at least the port isn't being outsourced to some obscure third-party developer.

That's good info, Thanks for the heads up. However, Orange Box will be a console purchase for me. I won't be purchasing any graphics intensive PC games for the foreseeable future.
Oh, but the Source engine doesn't take that much to run.

Seriously, if you have the choice between Gears of War and The Orange Box, get the latter.
