It’s hard to say which system GameSpot or the other sites are using now. They’re total ad whores, so they’ll say they use AMD on one week, then say Intel rules in the next.

As far as I’ve dug in the forums, the problems aren’t exclusive to AMD or Intel rigs. The point of my rant is that the reviewers glossed over the real issues.

Granted that some of them were a bit more respectable and mentioned the problems, but there are others *cough*GameSpot*cough* that completely omitted such talk.

Could it be a strange coincidence that the GameSpot reviewer was Jeff Gertsmann?

Mike -

Why not shoot off an e-mail to GameSpot or IGN and get the specs of the PCs used to review Gears?

I’m wondering if this is an Intel vs. AMD issue. We use to have problems like this 4 or 5 years ago. Maybe Epic Games prefers to have an Intel Inside…?
